Just fine
February 13, 2018

The blades are just fine with an efficient trimming blade. They're decent value too. I'm sticking with Harrys. I'll need to get a metal handle, the standard plastic item lacks the necessary heft

Very Poor Shave
February 9, 2018

The ordering process was easy and they delivered there product. It seems to me they spent way more money on all their fancy packing and how to shave direction than the product itself. The razor handle is a poor design making hard to shave your upper lip and the razor is terrible. I had three cuts the first time using it and I never cut myself, it felt like it was ripping across my skin.

I will go back to my Gillette razor immediately.

First of received the razor, but never received the handle to the razors until 7 weeks later. I even received the second order of razors before the handle was delivered.
Once received the handle decided to try the razors and they are absolutely terrible. Incredibly dull and very disappointing. Save your money and time from this con company. So disappointing.

Have trialled these products for several months and have to say that whilst delivery has been good, the product is nowhere near as good as my Gillette products. The Blades don't give as close a shave and they definitely don't last nearly as long. I also have to agree with others who have complained about the trimmer blade, which is a complete liability. When trying to shave the tricky area below my nose, I have cut myself several times and this should just not happen. Also, ergonomically, the shavers just aren't well designed as they are awkward to grip when wet - or at least they are for anyone who doesn't have tiny Trump-like hands! So, any cost saving is simply not worth it and in actual fact there is no saving as the products don't last as long. Sorry guys.

The last three times it took FOREVER for things to ship. I was billed 10 days ago and I ran out of shave gel today! According to their site it should have arrived 3 days ago. I'd be ok with this if it only happens occasionally. However the last three shipments have been horrible. Sometimes it just gets lost in the mail. I am starting to wonder if it gets stolen at the USPS since it's very CLEAR what's in the box thanks to the H's all over it.

I paid for a razor and blade subscription. Weeks ago. Nothing arrived. Email chasers result in excuses about warehouse delays. Dreadful company.

I have been using the Schick Hydro 5 for 4-5 years and have been very pleased, with the exception of the retail blade cost. So I tried Harry's. The company says you should be able to get 6-8 shaves per blade, and they're right. Then I looked online and was able to purchase 8 original Schick Hydro 5 blades at a delivered cost of $18.49, about $3.00 more than 8 blades from Harry's. Well worth the extra $3.00, as I easily get at least 4-5 times the number of shaves with the Schick. The Schick blades also give me a much smoother shave. True, initially you have to buy the handle, but all in all, Schick is a much, much better buy.

I have had a horrible experience with Harry's. Its been over 4 weeks and 2 weeks past my estimated shipping date. After going back and forth with custom service and being offered a refund, I am still waiting on some type of action. I have cancelled my plan and will return my package if it ever gets to me and its before my refund. I am ordering from Dollar shave club.

Man this razor sucks. First shave OK, by the third shave there was no sharpness left and I had to go over the same spot 8 or 9 times which caused serious redness. I actually threw away the remaining blade and want back to disposable Gillette products. One of the worst consumer products I purchased in 2017.

As a Harry's user for about 4 years now, I am pleading for you to take off that trimmer blade which has cut me numerous times. Give us an option with no trimmer blade.

Horrible blade
December 19, 2017

The first shave was ok. The razor feels nice in your hand. By the third shave, the razor was dull, the fourth shave-I cut myself--something that has not happened in 30 years with my other razors. I cancelled this service right away. I am very disappointed and will never use them again.

This company is Totally First Class! When my last order was lost by USPS this company sent out a replacement order immediately! Their razors and blades are absolutely the best quality out there and I have tried them all. And you cant find a less expensive shave with any where near the same quality!

Very disappointed in these clumsy razors... they don't contour well on chin and other outer edges, and the single trimming blade is angled poorly so cuts below my nose when trying to trip top of moustache area. The savings are not worth the bleeding, I'm going back to Fusion.

Tried the trial based on Steve "Dorky" Fifer from The Fan on the Milwaukee radio's recommendation. Touted that they were great... Not the case. Made it sound like they were only available online... Again not the case. They are available at Target. Didn't like anything about the trial. Used the trial for a week. My generic Target brand shave gel is better than the Harry's brand. I didn't feel as though I got a close shave. It felt like I had stubble early in the day. Wound up with nicks almost every day between my lower lip and chin. The shave balm made my face feel dry, somewhat tacky and tight. Save the $3 and stick with what you've got.

Ok, so I bit at the $3 trial. The Gel is very nice. That is where the very nice ended. Wanted to give it a good trial run, so I did not shave for three days. I wet my face and spread out a good portion of the very nice shave gel. I tried to shave and all the blade did was pull my beard hair uncomfortably. I tried a few more strokes and it was too uncomfortable to continue. I switched back to my twin blade grocery store generic disposable razor and it performed quite well on my heavy beard. I have cancelled all future shipments. It is very bad when you can not even shave once with a high dollar premium blade and it is very much bested by a grocery store generic twin blade disposable.

Terrible blades
December 15, 2017

Like the other reviews, these blades are inexpensive, but they're also cheap. They do not last nearly as long as the more "name brand" blades. Now giving dollar shave club a try -- we'll see...

I really wanted to like this product. I purchased a starter kit at Target and also subscribed to Harry's service. First shave was very nice. Second shave had my neck looking like I had some horrible bleeding pustule disease. Glad I did not use this before an interview. I'll stick with my Gillette Fusion 5s -- they seem to be better for sensitive necks...

Shaving is a part life. As a man, shaving my face is a very important part of my life. I took a chance on Harry's razors because my local Target started carrying their product line. My train of thought was that I could save some money down the line because their refill razors are 20-30% percent less than the major competitors. Lesson learned:-(

First shave went pretty well, although it is a remarkably different shave compared to your standard Gillette/Schick shave. Second shave was a nightmare and Harry's razor chewed up my neck as though I had a noose around my throat.

As I mentioned earlier, lesson learned. The cheap guy always pays twice. I will be returning to either of the time-tested market share juggernauts.

Awful blades
December 5, 2017

Shaved for the first time using a Harry's razor this morning - it will be the last. Subscription cancelled after one shave. The brand new blade 'drags' on your skin and gives sub-standard shave. Shame - not at all what the hype led me to believe they would be.

DO NOT BUY HARRYs RAZORS! It is a scam. I was initially sold on the discounted price and made in Germany blades what a joke! If Mercedes Benz made cars like Harrys razors they would be out of business! The metal blades are fine but they are stuck onto the frame of the razor with CHEAP RUBBER that only lasts a few weeks before deteriorating and becoming loose and weak making the razor unusable. Im going back to my old razor what a rip off!

From the business

Shaving is evolving. Never buy overpriced razors again. Get Harry's German engineered blades and shaving cream online for a fair price.
