5-Blade MotionSphere Men's Razor with Dual Lubrication, Vitamin E, Precision Trimmer, 1 Handle & 16 Cartridges, Black

These razors are excellent. I shave face and head daily. They last for weeks. I used to be an Xtreme Three user. These are better and half the price. I love the edge blade. Allows me to get under my nose. No razor burn, quality metal handle, no nicks. These are among the best values on Amazon. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Try em once, you WILL add to your sub-save.

I shave my head and face 3 x per week. I typically use Gilette blades and get around 6 weeks out of a blade before it starts to 'drag' across my scalp. The first few weeks the shave is almost frictionless, very smooth and comfortable. But the price for refill blades 'feels' high. Honestly for the amount of usage I get per blade, it's not- but I was still interested in alternatives.I tried buying some blades from a subscription service a while back. Those blades could have been in a Stephen King novel- they had a taste for human flesh...After being scared back to name brand blades for a few years, I recently picked up some off brand look-alike replacement blades that were being sold on Amazon. Came in packaging that looked very similar to the real deal, had a very similar look but were obviously made over seas and packaged to be direct replacements for half the price. Those blades dragged across my scalp like I was trying to shave with a pine cone. The blades were not jagged, they were just DULL. Apparently they were so bad that by the time I tried to review them, they no longer existed as something that could be reviewed. *They are still being sold, just not the specific set that I purchased. Be aware.I decided to just bite the bullet and purchase the ones I felt were overpriced but perform very well. Saw that Amazon has their own brand. I've purchased a lot of Amazon Basic items over the years, and figured I'd give them a shot.They actually solve a problem I didn't really have. They cost about half price from the name brand, and they shave really well. They are not as sharp and smooth as the name brand razors, I don't want to sell them as that- but they feel good, and have minimal skin drag. I do not think I'll get 6 weeks out of each blade, but I'm confident that I can get at least a month.For comfort I rate them a 4, but I'm adding a star for the value proposition. Cheaper and almost as good as the big boys. I'm good with that, and will repurchase in the future.

Very nice razors for the price. I have no complaints about the shave quality. My only complaints are the side with the single blade used for precision trimming is dangerous and doesn't work well for me. I tried using it around my nose and it cut me. It may be OK for edging longer hair on sideburns but stay away from delicate areas. Also, not a fan of the handle. Too many curves and contours going on so every time change shave angles, you have to stop and figure out how to best get a grip on it. And it should be all rubber coated, not a mix of both. Just one tubular rubber coated handle with no slip grips would make this razor the best.

I have been using single blade razors, of the old design that you dismantled the handle to take the blade out and replace it. They were great for a long time, but I finally decided to try these. They are fantastic. I always expect to get a few minor cuts while shaving, but if I got any cuts with these, they are too small for me to notice at all.I am cheap, so I reuse the blades as much as I can. I have so far used one cartridge to shave five times. Surprisingly, it does not seem to have even dulled from this. The lubricant on the top of the cartridge has faded away. But that does not make it unusable.Well done Amazon. You made an amazing item here.

I am stunned by all the shaving culture diatribe. I am 47 years old and have been actively shaving for more than 3 decades. That beautiful beard of mine is something that I maintain for about 5 months per year. From a clean shave to 3 weeks of not shaving it is fully in, but for length. Point is, I grow a thick beard, fast.Now, 7 months out of the year I shave that thick, fast growing beard, along with my entire head and neck - clean. Until a few years ago I did this every day and wore a suit as a practicing attorney (I'm now blessed with my days filled with homeschooling my kids, working heavy machinery to make pasture for a developing farm, and generally staying out of public).In ALL of these years I barely ever thought about how "enjoyable" my private-"me"-shave time was, or how special and pampering my equipment was. Fact is, I'm a fair-skinned white guy with thick facial hair and moderately sensitive skin. I used the regular progression of Gillette razors and marveled at how many blades were being added to my cartridges (I'm waiting for the "Razor Washcloth" where you wipe your entire face, etc. with a cloth covered in 1,000 razors that spin, wiggle, gyrate and sing Elvis songs for your most enjoyable 3 minutes per morning rush).One day I heard about man-shaming, corporate-s'plaining from Gillette and assessed my shaving costs. Here's my set up: razor + Lever 2000 that I wash my entire ... me ... with. That's it. Lever is pennies per week, Gillette ...??? Why was I so heavily invested in this company, were there good alternatives I mused? Hence my introduction to all this panty-wasted shave-culture gibberish (stick with me to hear support for this conclusion).I nearly got completely freaked out by considering a new razor. I imagined chunks of my tender flesh on the shower floor due to unknown shaving follies, calls to the fire department to please put out this unbearable burning, and aliens just saying "ahhh, screw it, let's stop wasting time and 86 these puny life-forms; this guy's shaving mishaps have completely caused us to loose faith of any redemption for the bugs!"Seriously, the discussion was nearly crippling. Don't get me wrong, I lived for years in Chicago area group homes, etc. with some black guys who really had to take care with their products or they'd get some bad ingrowns, etc. But these were the outliers, NOT the norm out of all the guys I've known in nearly half a century!Finally, I overcame internet-info-overload and picked this razor (Solimo 5 blade). It arrived and I found myself comparing it closely to the Gillette - STILL due to the online discussions. I'd say the docking mechanism on the Gillette seems stronger (although I don't normally engage in Fencing with my razor, no matter the make), and the back of the Gillett cartridge doesn't have the additional horizontal support that the Solimo does (which then catches some additional debris - but, I just don't take out my unsightly razor and show it off to guests anyway so ... meh).Shaving ... IT SHAVES! Like ... a RAZOR!!! I got a few tiny pinpoint knicks by my lip the first time or 2 because it's not identical to the Gillete I was used to, but by use 4 or so, I don't notice any big difference to shaving with my Gillette. And I've been shaving my head, neck, and face with this thing (meaning the same, 1st cartridge) for over 5 weeks now.Also, I hang the thing in my shower. I don't rub it on fancy pads. I don't blow it out, fluff it, polish it, sing to it, or coddle it in anyway. I grab this servile hunk of plastic, thrust it under the water and start unceremoniously scrubbing my many areas of skin with it in generally rough and crude fashion until I am slick and smooth as the day I was born and then rinse off, towel off and start putting out all the proverbial fires that my 4 young kids have started up while I dared take 5 minutes in the shower.Seriously, my process is: wash the body; rub Lever 2000 soap suds on head, neck and face; grab razor hanging on shower wall and stick under water; drag that thing unjudiciously this way and that way with and accross the hair grain on my head; finish head with reapeated little scrubbing actions (like rubbing adhesive off a table with your finger tip) against the hair grain to get the skin really smooth; repeat all of this with the face; judicious and sensible force and motion on my neck - come on now, I'm not a beast.And that's it. And after more than 5 weeks of this I was still getting ... o.k. results with my very first Solimo cartridge. BUT, being so cheap I ended up switching out to a new one today because there's no reason not to. The new blades didn't nick me once - so, I've adjusted my technique. I noticed the greater efficiency with the new blade, but my gosh, seriously this has got to be number 47,953 in importance out of the top 45,000 important things in my life.So, now that I've finished my journey down this rabbit hole, my conclusion is the Solimo is fine (as are most other shaving products, likely) and the shave-culture is a panty-waisted thing. Just one beast's opinion.Update 3/3/21: It's been a couple of years now and I'm still using the same system. This is nuts, but I believe I've only changed the head 5 or 6 times (tops) in that time. I did add one additional "trick" to what I do. I keep a spent toothbrush in the shower and give the razor head a little back and forth scrub before I shave and once during the shave (usually when I'm finished with my head and move to my neck, then face). Otherwise, every single thing I said above remains my experience. My wife even converted on those sweet, smooth, soft legs of hers and I'm fine with Solimo's results there too (and, let's be honest, if I'm not going into the office, or before a judge, the smoothness of her legs is FAR more important to me than that of my noggin', neck, or mug). Thumbs up and recommendations for Solimo 2 years after switching from "Girllete".

I've been telling everyone about these. I am very sensitive to razors and these are great for sensitive skin. I use them on my head but have used on my face as well. I get about 5 shaves on my head before I change cartridges but honestly I could use them longer but since they are so cheap, why not use them more? I think these are better than any Gillette razor I have used at a fraction of the cost. This is my new go to.

Switched from Harry's blades to save money. Shocking difference in quality. Harry's I could shave dry and get away with no burn. This? I'm going to try some additional blades from the original one but it feel like it's tearing the hair off my face. If it isn't any better I'm switching back; worth the extra money. I'm buying shave gel today to try and see if that helps after a shower. I guess you get what you pay for.

This isn't the closest or most premium razor I've owned, but that's not really what it's for. It does the job, the shave is perfectly fine for everyday use, and it's cost-effective enough that I don't mind swapping heads. If you want a solid basic razor without paying name-brand prices, this delivers. Just don't expect it to beat the high-end ones.

Thoroughly impressed with the shave. I use my old toothbrush to clean the razor during shave and after shave to keep a clean shave blade. Once you do this (to any razor really) then you'll never stop, since any buildup of hairs in the blade reduce efficacy.One thing I hate is switching blades isn't easy to do, as you have to fiddle a little and hold the eject button to install new cartridge, and it's not colour coded so it might be upside down if you're not paying attention.Other than that, I highly recommend based on value as these are inexpensive per cartridge.Switched away from the 6blade dollar shave club and Gillette fusion series. Glad I did.

Absolutely amazing razorAs a women even tho its made for menIt leaves my legs feeling extremely smoothNo iritation or cuts.And does the job quickly with its 5 bladesThe look, feel and quality is perfectBlades last a long time before having to replace it.Given the amount of refils that came with it.I absolutely recommend this product to anyone.For the cost it is by far a great deal .I will definitely purchase again

The price for name brand 5 blade razors seems like price gouging so I decided to give these a try.They are excellent value for the money, I am very happy with this razor system. They are not quite as good as the name brand razors, the handle is not as solid and well built. The razors dont have the flip down edge to trim close like the name brand. The shave is better than 3or 4 blade razor but not quite as good as the name brand razor but for the price I am sticking with these.My guess as to why there are bad reviews is likely due to quality control, they may have improved the QC or I received a good set. With something like razors one bad blade is too many, if that happens I will revise my review.Also, at the time I wrote this review you can only buy this kit, you can't buy blades or handles separately. But for me this is fine, the handle is not as solid as the name brand razors so I would prefer to replace the handle. I dont shave every day so this kit will last me a long time.

I was using "Edge" razors before I found these and let me tell you, night and day difference. These razors knock them out of the water!! I will never go back. Not only are these razors more cost effective buy they keep me sooth much longer than my other ones did. These are my new go-to razors :)

Quality of the blades is not consistent.
