awesome

Pretty amazing product. Surprising shallow learning curve. Never again will I have to fork out over a fiver for mach-3 blades that only last a couple of shaves. A razor for grown-ups.

Almost

Considerably cheaper than multi blades, and my ingrown hairs have reduced, the only down side is difficulty shaving under the nose, due to the large head.

Excellent product

Once you get used to this product, it provides the best shave ever. Beats mach 3!

Takes some time

It's taken me over a week but I'm finally getting the hang of this; it does a great job on my face but my neck just cannot get used to it (hence 4 stars). I've seen all the help vids, and no matter what way I try to shave it the result is poor. Maybe after another couple of weeks...!

Excellent

Really great razor. The only slight drawback is that you can cut your fingers when changing the settings mid shave.

A proper razor

It works for me, appears it does not work for everyone. I find it does not shave as close as the likes of the Mach3 but it makes the whole experience more pleasurable, I can not shave all weekend and come Monday morning just carve through the growth with no clogging or snagging. If you do struggle then experiment with the blade height setting, failing that then it just is not for you, bit like marmite.

Not for me

I purchased this razor, and while it does give an excellent shave, I started to get ingrown hairs within a few days of using it. I gave it a couple of weeks and when the ingrown hair problem persisted stopped using this razor and went back to my Fusion. Within a couple of days of returning to the Fusion, the ingrown hairs stopped and have not been a problem since. While there can be several causes of ingrown hairs, the only change I made to my products and routine at the time was to switch to this razor. Thus, I feel it was the razor causing me the problems. I have rated it 3 stars as the shave was good.

For mature shavers..

I like the concept of shaving the traditional way. Combined with a good shave prep, shaving becomes quite an enjoyable activity. There is a steep learning curve but if you've got the time, go for it and leave the fusion at the back of the bathroom cabinet. I used my merkur for 3 months and have some very good shaves. However you have to shave very carefully, and adjust your strokes and angle of the blade for the contours of your face. Something that a sensor excel does for you. Furthermore, my skin looks more refreshed after a shave with a multi-blade probably because it shaves closer etc. Honestly, buy this because you have time to learn how to use it and if you have tough mature skin that can take the sharp blade. I'm 21, my skin is still supple and sensitive so I don't think I'm quite ready for the merkur. Back to the sensor for me!

Great shave dangerous design

First time i used a real DE razor used a wilkinson classic before The futur gave the best shave Ive had but with wilkinson blades however adjusting the blade can be dangerous after nearly taking the entire top off my finger i either now take out the blade or put a towel over to cover the blade
