I like the shaver; however, the parts are plastic and designed (in my estimation) to break. And the replacement parts, e.g., blades and guards are simply to expensive. Do yourself a favor and buy something a barber would use. Phillips/Norelco should be ashamed.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Not Worth Buying

I have been using the OneBlade for two years now. The original Skin Guard attachment in came with for sensitive areas is not great, but it does the job. I decided to purchase their "New" Skin Protect Replacement Blade. It's about two dollars more expensive compared to regular replacement blades and claims to have "unmatched skin protection". It's literally the same blade, and the only difference is that it has a plastic layer in the middle they call a "skin protection cap." The idea is that the cap is thicker than the blade, so it creates a small layer that stops the blade from touching your skin. However, the moment you angle it, or it's not a flat area, it exposes the little blades to your skin and cuts you. The original Skin Guard protection attachment is a way better protect. I definitely do not recommend this new blade. It's just lazy marketing to promote the same product with not much changes.

Great Shave too bad about the replacement blades

Got this to reduce the waste of a disposable razor and it is great for that. Shave it very good. The initial blade was very sharp and worked for a long time the replacement ones however are very poor in comparison. After only 3 shaves the blade was not sharp and began to deteriorate quickly (see pic). I don't mind paying for the blades but they should be longer lasting.
After using this I now actually enjoy shaving again. I have very sensitive skin and this razor doesn't irritate it anymore than a standard shaver. Cuts close once you learn the best technique for your face. Couldn't be happier! 5 stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Pros: does everything i need it to do!
Cons: none
I would recommend this to a friend!

Perfect for helping the disabled

We have a 22 year Down Syndrome young man that trying to shave w/ a blade or even old style norelco is not ideal. If we let the whiskers grow two or three days, this product is perfect, then we use old style electric for slight touchup
Satisfied with the OneBlade. Subscribed for monthly replacements.

I have extremely coarse facial hair and need to shave my face daily. I have broken so many razors and electric shavers over the past fifteen years that I have lost count. My daily routine consists of shaving with a higher end electric shaver prior to showering, followed by a complete shave with a popular 5-blade razor. What the OneBlade has done for me is give me the option to skip that routine on some days without feeling grizzly. It handles the coarseness of my facial hair well and with minimal mess to clean up after. I typically use it in front of the mirror in the bathroom with the sink water running to rinse the unit every so often. It shaves pretty darn close and cuts down on the overall time it typically takes me using my typical daily method. Do not expect this to shave as close as a straight razor, but it's close enough for me to lose that scruff and shadow.
Pros: quick, easy, close shave, handles coarse facial hair well
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great razor but the oneblade is cheaply made. It broke when taking it out of the package.
