So far, I was actually very pleased with Gillette.
I had bought this razor out of curiosity and was a bit skeptical, especially since the Blades almost only half of the cost, which Gillette so requires (depending on type).
Wilkinson I had already tried, but I found the handle not so great .... my skin, moreover, not what they also acknowledged me with bloody bodies.
Shipping was really fast, even though it was not sent through Prime and a short time later I was able to try out the razor.
And what can I say? Wunderbar! The handle is really great, it glides well by the face and shaving is really thorough.
My skin will thank me and you feel after shaving just fine.
The processing is very valuable, the receptacles for the blades of metal.
Although the initial investment of 33.95 may seem a little high at the beginning, but will pay for itself quickly through the lower blades after some time.
There are also cheaper models and also much more expensive, with the Twee is located in the upper middle class :)
For blade durability:
Job Because I shave every day, only on the weekend I leave the sometimes like to stay. To 4 days shaved happy while on holiday 3 times. Then I still quite firm and thick stubble, but is not a problem for this blade ... that was at Gillette otherwise. Since the blades were for 5 to 6 by inserting already.
I have the first blade now less than a month in operation and it is almost as sharp as the day.
Conclusion:
Good blades need not be expensive and a good feeling after shaving is priceless :)
Who the blades from Gillette are too expensive, but do not want to miss out on a good shave, you should consider purchasing.
