I tried out this razor after using the Silk Effects range for my whole life. I was quite impressed with this product - it gave a SUPER close shave, leaving my legs very soft and silky. The only thing which I didn't like so much about this product was how the razor was quite inflexible - unlike the Silk Effects range there was no real movement in the razor head, meaning that tricky areas were made even more tricky! However, the width of the razor was definitely a pro, as it allowed for more coverage in one sweep.
Overall, really liked this razor! Good value and good quality.
The performance of these razors are great. That being said, I'm already a fan of Schick razors and wasn't surprised that they once again delivered a product of this standard. In fact, the result was so familiar that I found it difficult to find any real differences to others like it from this brand. Because I didn't notice any standout differences in performance the only reason I would buy this model over other Schick razor would be the price at the time of purchase.
If I'm being particularly thorough with my review the appearance bears talking about as I was reasonably disappointed with the overall presentation. The bulky packaging felt cheap and seems to make an effort to remind you that its a disposable product every time you see it stored in your bathroom. It certainly doesn't make you excited to open a fresh razor like some of it's rival products. The printing on the outside looks like it was briefly checked over and signed off without much thought as to how it would compare to other products on the shelf. It's 'modest' colour pallet carries though to the razors inside pairing an off white that will make any shower look bleach white against it and a a not quite girly pink or bold blue to one again remind you that you didn't go for the more impressive and expensive alternative.
Overall this is a very good product but it appears that Schick has dedicated their time to ensuring that this razor delivers on it's performance promise, and unlike it's competitors has neglected the overall presentation, probably resulting in it not being as popular as it should be.
Tips: I only shave my legs and underarms so for those of you who would use this razor elsewhere please make sure you test it for yourself in other areas to make sure it's suitable for you. As a general shaving tip - I shave with conditioner instead of shaving foam because it's more cost effective and I think it gives the sane result.
