I bought this razor in the hopes of finding an inexpensive alternative to the bulky and pricey options currently on the market. I liked the small size and the cheap replacement cartridges. But i was disappointed. The razor is notably rougher on my face than my Schick Quattro - especially if I have skipped a day of shaving. This razor has been banished to the bathroom storage drawer where it will stay until I have time to donate it to Goodwill.
