Amazon Basics 5-Blade MotionSphere Razor for Men with Dual Lubrication and Precision Beard Trimmer, Handle & 2 Cartridges (Cartridges fit Amazon Basics Razor Handles only) (Previously Solimo)

I wasn’t sure what to expect from an Amazon Basics razor, but I’ve been really impressed. It delivers a smooth, close shave, holds up well over time, and costs a fraction of the name brands. For an everyday razor, this is a great find.⸻🪒 What I Like:• Smooth, clean shave – Glides easily over the skin and handles both coarse and fine hair well. I’ve used it on my face/legs and had zero irritation.• Affordable refills – The replacement cartridges are budget-friendly, which makes it easier to change blades more often (no more stretching dull razors).• Comfortable grip – The handle feels sturdy and ergonomic—doesn’t slip even when wet.• Comparable to big-name brands – Honestly performs just as well as razors I’ve paid double for.• Comes with extras – Depending on the set, you get several refill cartridges in the box—huge bonus.

I’ve been using the Amazon Basics 5-Blade MotionSphere Razor for a few weeks now, and I’m very impressed with its performance. The razor provides a smooth, close shave with minimal irritation, and the 5 blades glide effortlessly over my skin. The dual lubrication strips are a nice touch, helping to reduce friction and providing a more comfortable shave. I also like the precision beard trimmer that’s built into the back of the handle—perfect for touching up sideburns and trimming around my beard. The handle feels sturdy and comfortable to hold, making it easy to control while shaving. The razor is easy to clean, and the two included cartridges have lasted longer than I expected. For the price, this is an excellent razor that performs as well as more expensive brands. Highly recommend it!

Pro: Truly a great value compared to Gillett or other expensive multi blade razors. The handle and blades do an adequate job and are reasonably well made. A reasonably close shave even with sensitive skin. Huge cost savings.Con: Handle overall make is good but lacking compared to Gillett. Blades are not as sharp, effective or long lasting as Gillett.Having said that the Amazon product works well and I will not go back to the more expensive name brand.

[Note: Reviewer is customer's husband, who uses the product]After years with Dollar Shave Club, watching the quality of handles and blades continually decline, I decided to give the Amazon Basics handle and blades a try.On the basis of three shaves so far, I can attest that the handle seems well-made and maintains its grip on the blade, and that the blade gives me a nice, close shave with no razor burn, grabbing/cutting, etc.Other than seeing how many shaves I get out of a blade (I want it to do five to ten), I'm at the point of saying that this is a good razor and that the blade replacement pack prices are pretty nice by comparison with "major brands" and online subscription services.I have a PRETTY tough beard, but perversely have sensitive skin underneath that beard, so if the razor isn't cutting or irritating me, it's probably going to be kind to most people.

I needed to shave for an appointment so I purchased this due to the price point.I have been a gillette man my entire life. Any other brand of razor I have used always felt scratchy and the blade sharpness didn't last past 3 uses, but I figured this was a one time thing.I forgot to order shaving cream since I haven't really shaved in well over a year. I used just bar soap and water. This was one of the smoothest shaves I have had. Normally, I reshave certain areas multiple times against the grain to achieve the best result. With this razor, I only went once against the grain and didn't need to repeat. My skin wasn't irritated afterwards.The trimming razor is a little scratchy on the neck area, but to be fair it was working with 2 inch old man thick white hairs.The main body feels sturdy, easy to grip, and has a positive weighty feel.I will keep shaving and edit later with a durability update.

I have purchased these razors in hope to find a reasonable price and quality razor. I used to use DSC razors for many years and within the recent year or two, I noticed a significant decrease in the quality of DSC razors, most likely switched vendors, thus I switched to Amazon’s brand.What caught my eyes about these blades was the number of reviews and ratings (If they are true). I was impressed at the rating and price, thus my purchase.I should mention that my face is sensitive w/ coarse facial hair and I use shaving butter when I shave. That said, I can tell immediately when the quality of a blade drops to the point of needing to be replaced, otherwise, razor burns and ingrown hairs result.As for these razor blades, they are great at first use and okay at second use, then immediately the quality of the blades are reduced to subpar compared to DSC and Gillette.All in all, I would recommend these razor blades for only the people who do not have sensitive skin.

I didn't want to use disposable razors - for a number of reasons. This razors gives a great shave, & lasts a long time. The pivoting head is definitely a plus.
