Defender Razor Reviews

I honestly really wanted to love this product but it's so bad. I thought it was amazing and I'm so mad I wasted $6 on this product for technically a 1-time use razor in my case, because I will not be purchasing any more blades. The handle is made out of such cheap plastic, I actually first thought the handle was metal but I would have been okay with plastic if it were high quality and sturdy, but it's just so cheaply made. The blades are so bad, they are not sharp at all, and they do not cut through hair easily. The Gillette blade I have used for 43 months straight is better than this. I just received my Defender Razor today and it cut me up, I flexed the blades to see how well they bend and they don't, the flexibility in it is awful.

Please, if you thought about purchasing this like I did, saw all the ads, the videos, even reviews from people saying it's decent, don't buy it. I wanted to love this so bad so I finally purchased it and I am furious.

Length of Use: Less than 3 months

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

This blade did get the job done, but I had some thoughts:

Pros

• Blades are affordable, even without the membership
• Blade is wider
• It's a very comfortable shave, very little friction, love the independent suspension

Cons

• The depth is too shallow, so you really need to work to get a good shave
• If you do work, to get depth, you WILL cut yourself
• With mine, it did keep clogging up. Requires a bit of rinsing to get it ready to use again
• Took a bit of experimenting to change blades out

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

For years I used a Bic disposable for sensitive skin. I decided to give Defender a try and lo and behold, I switched. It gives a closer shave than the Bic and it doesn't irritate my skin. It's more expensive than a Bic but I think it's worth it.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I shave every other day both my face and my head. It is a breeze to shave with the Defender. Easy motion with standard blades. The gliding of the razor is a pleasure. Rinsing had been a problem with other blades I've used over the years. Both clogging and getting dull too quickly has been a problem that is now solved. My beard is not a heavy one so the blades used prior would go over the hair. The flexibility of the Defender makes shaving a pleasure (almost).

Even when I skip a few days, I don't encounter problems. I heartedly recommend these blades to any man that shaves.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

After seeing a very nice promo video and so many good reviews, I decided to give it a try. Unfortunately, I have to say this razor is far from being a revolutionary blade. It is not even close to Gillette Proglide, it seems to be a regular blade you find any grocery store/pharmacy. Disappointed.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Very poor quality blades. In sharpness, it is comparable to disposable blades that you can buy from Dollar Tree or from Walmart in bundles. I won't buy it again.

Length of Use: Less than 3 months

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Been a Harry's customer for years but thought I would give this a try. Not impressed and did not get a close shave. Going back to my Harry's razor.

Length of Use: Less than 3 months

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

This razor does what it says it will do: shave close, shave smooth, and clean up easily. It glides nicely over my skin, even the tough corners around the lips, with no nicks and no harder pressure required. I go a few days between shaves, and the longer hair clogs up other multi-blades I’ve used quickly. Not so with the Defender, and it cleans up with a quick shake under the faucet. Four or five shaves per blade. The best blade I’ve used.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Just absolutely horrible. It's like dragging a metal rake across your skin. Was amazed. This has to be some sort of joke. It is the worst razor I have ever used in my life.

Length of Use: Less than 3 months

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Smooth and comfortable handle, past perfection blade design. The blades rise so well and so easy, thus prolonging the blade way past any other on the market. The shaving oil and the shaving creme are both top-notch products. Super super happy to find this club after other dollar clubs failed me!

Length of Use: Less than 3 months

At first, I was not impressed with the quality of the unit. A little light, etc. Did a dry shave to test cut quality. OMG! Smooth as a baby's bottom! Very clean-cut one first pass. I'm impressed!

Length of Use: Less than 3 months

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I have tried many razors. This is by far the best. I am a new customer and will continue to order. I ordered 4 of them. I have used the 1st one 6 times with a smooth shave. Just started using #2.

Length of Use: Less than 3 months

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I like using the Defender Razor because it's cheap for refills and it doesn't get clogged with hair like others that I have used.

Length of Use: 6–12 months

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
