   Excellent Razor Set for a Smooth Shave!
   The Amazon Basics 5-Blade MotionSphere Razor is an excellent choice for men looking for a smooth, comfortable shave. The dual lubrication strips help reduce irritation, leaving my skin feeling soft and refreshed. The 5 blades glide effortlessly across my skin, providing a close shave with minimal effort. I also love the precision trimmer on the back, which is perfect for trimming around the edges of my beard and mustache. The handle feels sturdy and comfortable, making it easy to control. With 16 cartridges included, this set offers great value for the price and will last a long time. Overall, it’s a fantastic razor that delivers high performance and great quality!

   Affordable and Dependable
   Amazon you magnificent bastards, how have you managed to sneak in as become one of the best economic cartridge razors I’ve ever used.For a bit of background if you’ve read some of my other reviews, I’m a bit at war with the shaving industry. I’ve used multiple different types and brands of razors and to put it politely, they all suck.Now for many years I’ve been using the famous Dorco brand for their reliability and price. Sadly with the passing years Dorco, while still a good price, have some diminishing reliability resulting in them being inconsistent. I’d have one set that worked find only to open a new pack of 4 and find that I need to use two razors just to finish a standard shave.With Dorco razors being a coin flip on the ‘almost completely dull’ scale I had to look for something else and behold Amazon making their modest little Basics-5. With 16 razors and handle all while boasting a price a few dollars cheaper than Dorco and I just had to try it out. Surprise, this little eco razor was AMAZING.While a bit on the light side the razors are amazing sharp and smooth resulting in a fast smooth shave every time. No more hacking at my face 6 or 10 times to shave a spot, no more 1 razor (or even 2 in some cases) per a shave, no more feeling like I want to delay shaving because its become more a chore than a basic hygiene maintenance. This is exactly the thing you actually want from companies. Someone who looks at the competition, saw they were doing nothing to meaningfully change or improve their product, and just goes in there hacks all the useless bells and whistles and just just makes a better product that is cheaper too.My only complaint, I find the ‘MotionSphere’ which is just fancy talk for a bit of a swivel head that allows the razor to bend and change angles a bit… fidgety. It feels fragile at times and as anyone who has used cartridge razors before you know that sometimes you just don’t snap that sucker in right so the razor will fall off. The swivel kind makes it a hassle to get it back on. I found the only way I could do it was to snap the razor back in the clear case it came with and ‘plug’ the handle through that. Otherwise the thing just didn’t want to attach any other way.Outside of that, amazingly solid razor for a cheap price.

   Good value
   So far, these are the most economical five blade razors I have found. Amazon Basics does make a female version (elderly lady here), but I have always preferred men’s razors for my legs over women’s razors. I have tried just about every economical razor out there, including Harry’s, Dollar Shave Club, and Equate. Harry’s used to be my favorite before they cheaped out, and the plastic heads would only last four or five shaves before they bent backwards and broke. Plus, they started getting more expensive.These Amazon Basics are comparable to all the others. They get the job done, without nicking my legs, and provide a decent, close shave. I still prefer Equate (orange pack) over these, but these are actually a little bit cheaper in price. My only complaint is the gel strip. I have a bad habit of laying my razor down in the shower instead of hanging it up to dry, in which case, the gel strip turns into thick jelly and has to be wiped off. My bad, but yes, I will buy these again, as they are decent quality and economical.

   Solid blades and last a long time.
   I recently tried the Amazon Basics men’s shaving razors, and they turned out to be a pretty solid option for the price. The handle feels lightweight but well-designed, offering a comfortable grip during use. The razor cartridges come with a lubrication strip, which helps the blades glide smoothly over the skin.The shave is close and comparable (if not better) to some of the more expensive brands I’ve used. They hold their edge quite well for a long time.Affordable solution. These razors are worth it!

   BEST RAZOR EVER AND ITS CHEAP!!
   Better than any razor brand around! They’re extremely smooth, sharp, maneuverable, and CHEAP but in a good way! Every other brand is $30-$45 and they only come with like 10 replacement blades, it cost even more for a 180 degree handle and the moisturizing strip on those blades are usually melted. But the Amazon brand comes with 16 replacement blades, the moisturizing strips are not melted, the strips are full, it has 5 very sharp blades, it has a 180 degree handle, and the handle is pretty heavy so it doesn’t feel like it’s going to fly out of your hand. I’ve only used it once but I received a lot of compliments on how smooth my face was.

The 5-blade design provides an incredibly smooth and close shave, while the MotionSphere technology helps the razor glide effortlessly over contours without irritation.The dual lubrication strip ensures comfort, especially for sensitive skin, and the precision trimmer is perfect for shaping sideburns and trimming hard-to-reach areas. Plus, with 16 replacement cartridges, this set is a fantastic value that lasts a long time.The handle feels sturdy and well-balanced, making shaving effortless. If you’re looking for a high-quality razor without the premium price tag, this is definitely worth trying! Highly recommend!
