Customer Reviews

This is a very good product - Reviewed on 2008-11-01

I have long legs, dark hair, and pale sensitive skin, so I have always hated shaving my legs because it's a time-consuming ordeal and I never get good results. However, this razor makes things a lot easier for me.

I had to be patient when using it and go over the same area several times, but I always have that problem when shaving. This razor did not get every hair, and in fact there were some it wouldn't get at all, so I had to use another razor to clean up the strays. But I ended up with smooth legs and ZERO nicks, ZERO razor burn. My legs actually feel good instead of tortured. This is unheard of for me, which is why I'm giving the product five stars. Finally I can shave my legs routinely instead of dreading the chore. I'm very pleased with this product.

Nice for legs, but that's about it. - Reviewed on 2008-10-18

Personally, I'm just not impressed. While it does work on my legs, I wouldn't say it's noticeably more impressive. But for me what really mattered is that it is SO hard to use on my underarms. I have to pull the skin across the bone and then try to shave to get the lower part of my underarm because the thing is too bulky and there is way too much plastic to get a smooth shave. Since I can get a smooth shave with a cheapy razor, I think I'd rather stick with that.

By far this is the best razor I have used yet. I have extremely sensitive skin and this is just fantastic with no irritation. I was skeptical before I bought it because I have had terrible results with other razors and at a loss about what to do, but I was impressed with the results. Finally a great start to better shaving products.

Finally! A good razor for women! - Reviewed on 2008-08-29

I hate shaving my knees because I never get every little stubbly hair! No matter how much I shave, I still miss. Not so with this razor.
I got this as a sample and I LOVE it. It's smooth and easy and gets the job done, beautifully. My legs feel super smooth and and no cuts! Hurray! I've finally found the perfect razor!

Good blades, narrow handle - Reviewed on 2008-08-10

Since I am a man, I have no experience with this product. However, here is what the wife reported:

"The shave was smooth. It did its job. But the handle feels narrow, like I did not have control over it while shaving. I like the thicker handle of my old razor better. The thingy that sticks to the shower wall is great! It was really handy and never fell off, even in a hot shower. Overall, the shave was fine, but not stellar."

So, to summarize, it sounds like the blades themselves are good and do a good job on the skin (no irritations), but the handle might bother some people. The grip matters the most when moving it against the body, so keep that in mind.

I like the way my wife's legs felt after she used it, so I cannot complain. But since this is not my product, I hope her input will help people decide to use this razor.
