Was excited to buy German steel, cheaper shaving blades along with some efficient campaign. I will be short, as compared to Gillette Proglide these are not even half closer to performance due to design fault. Blade movement is only one directional as compared to two directional of Gillette. They use rubber elasticity as compared to metal used by Gillette, thus making them very stiff and will not provide closer shave and will cut your skin. They have not even provide review section on their website. Performance is not even justified at this price level. Will not buy again.

I had been a Harry's member from the very beginning. I turned my home into a Harry's home. We had several colors, for guests as well. All was well. Nice shave, esthetically pleasing product, very nice shaving cream, low-impact packaging, etc. All was well. Then they "improved" the product by adding a single very sharp blade in exactly the place where you expect it to be safe - the back edge of the blade. The part that goes up under your nose. I tried corresponding with them about this, but they said most of their customers wanted this. I can't fathom why or how, but so be it. If their new customers are more important than their old ones, I'll find another product, that's all right. It was great while it lasted.

I contacted customer service concerning the poor quality of a shave with Harry's new designed blades. I tried the trial blade and two other blades delivered on a later date. All three blades cut my face and didn't get the close shave I expected. I was told by customer service to try shaving while holding the razor at a different angle. Didn't help. I have invested $40 with these blades and truly believe they are a scam. I've looked on Harry's facebook page and can't find a negative complaint posted. But, a google search of complaints on Harry's blades revealed that there are many similar complaints such as the one I mentioned. Probably, there are many more that just wrote it off as a bad experience and didn't want to waste any more of their time or money. Hopefully, Harry will recognize that there is a problem with their razor.

I was going to give Harry's razors a second chance after buying into a set months ago and nearly running out. I figured after so many complaints, Harry would have fixed the auto-break installed into the razor head and started manufacturing sharp razors instead of the chain saws I received.

Fortunately for me, Harry decided to administer the coup de grace by pulling one of the oldest marketing ploys since P. T. Barnum started his circus...

A set of 8 was advertised for $16.00 along with a coupon for $5.00 off. At checkout the payment read $16.00 before applying the coupon. When I entered the coupon code instead of the price decreasing to $11.00 it shot up to $21.00 then down to $16.00 again. That low-down trick took the cake for me.

Bottom Line: RUN, don't walk from Harry's Razors. There's a reason why they're cheaper than Gillette. Same reason you can get Hoverboards and Galaxy 7's at firestorm prices nowadays.

I bought mine at Target because I wanted to try it out, it was only $1 less than the usual Mach 3 that I use. I have very light facial hair and only shave 2 times a week. Both blades made it through 2 good shaves and a not so comfortable 3rd shave. After the 3rd shave it pulled my facial hair out and nicked my face. The blade leaves a patchy shave that requires you to go back and hit all the parts of the face it missed. All in all this is nothing but a high priced disposable blade with a slightly nicer handle. This blade does not and should not be compared to the likes of Mach 3 and others in this category. Save your face, save your money and pass on Harry's

By far the worst shave that I have ever had. The marketing and packaging are beautiful, but it doesn't make up for the poor quality blades. The blade clogs up with every pass and they are impossible to clean even with the hottest of water.
When trying to return this dangerous mess to Harry's, the customer support was not only unhelpful but down right rude. No refund was given and my Harry's shaving set went straight to the garbage.

The razor doesn't work well for a technical reason. The plastic that permits the razor head to swivel is too stiff; as a result it takes too much pressure to bring the head in full contact with the skin. To solve this design flaw, one must press harder or "swivel" one's hand instead; a rather awkward and not very effective process. Since the handle can't be used with other razor heads consider the paperweight suggestion.
Response to Harry's contact.
While I'm sure your advice is well intended, it ignores the fact that the pivot (plastic) is much stiffer than your competitors, i. E. push it with your finger To expect customers to practice with your product suggests that you don't understand human nature; look at your reviews. Suggestion: Either reformulate the plastic ("softer") or make the pivot point thinner. If you make the change, let me know

I have been shaving for 30+ years and have never gouged myself like I have with Harry's new blades. The superfluous precision trimmer they added frequently gashes my chin when the handle slips. This never used to happen when I used similar cartridge styles from other makers. I was a delighted Harry's customer for several years and eagerly recommended it to others. No more. I will look for a new vendor when I exhaust my current supply.

As a side note, Harry's customer service dismissed my concern saying,"... after a few more tries, you'll find that you're getting an even more comfortable shaving experience with the new blades." Basically: you don't know what you're doing. Unfortunately, they no longer make available their blades without the precision trimmer.
