Amazon Basics 5-Blade MotionSphere Men's Razor with Dual Lubrication and Precision Trimmer, 17 Piece Set, 1 Handle & 16 Cartridges, Black

These razors are fantastic. Razor systems can be expensive, and often you don’t get your money’s worth — cartridges don’t last long, refills are pricey, and sometimes it’s hard to even find replacement blades for the handle you bought. It’s also surprisingly difficult to find blades that consistently provide a smooth, close shave. The Amazon Basics MotionSphere Men’s Razor solves those issues. First, the value is excellent. You get one handle and 16 cartridges, which is hard to beat for the price. I shave 5–6 times per week, and each cartridge lasts me about 1–2 weeks before I notice it starting to dull. Because of the price point, you don’t have to make a big upfront investment and then worry about tracking down expensive refill packs. For me, this set lasts roughly 4–6 months, making it a better overall value than many big-name brands. The handle is comfortable and easy to grip, and the blades are sharp, providing a close, smooth shave. I’ve been using this set for over a year now, and it’s honestly one of the best razor systems I’ve purchased. I continue to reorder it without hesitation. Highly recommended.

I wasn’t expecting much, but this razor performs surprisingly well. The five blades provide a close, smooth shave without excessive irritation. The handle has a comfortable grip, and the cartridges glide nicely with shaving cream. It’s a solid, budget-friendly alternative to more expensive name brands. Great value for everyday use.

I am a big fan of all things Amazon Basics. I have bought clothes and other things and have been highly satisfied with the quality and price of most of my purchases. These razors are more of the same. The price around twenty dollars is a steal for 16 5 blade razors. Also, the grip and feel of the handle is excellent. It has some texture to it which helps when it gets wet that prevents slipping or dropping. The weight is just right providing an easy shaving experience. Additionally. I have no problem with the blade attachment mechanism. The most important aspect of these blades are the durability and life. I have been using the first blade I installed and have not had to replace it with a new one since they were delivered on Dec 14. I shave everyday and have a medium stubble and I get a clean shave everyday. Another Amazon Basic that delivers.

This razor comes at a very competitive price. The handle is decently ergonomic, not too bulky or thin, doesn’t bend, and is not slippery when wet. The blade attachment mechanism is not hard to use. It does not result in the absolute cleanest shave I have ever had, but it is certainly good enough and has never cut me at all. The blades last about as long as any other comparable design I’ve seen. I will likely purchase these again.

I shave my head and face 3 x per week. I typically use Gilette blades and get around 6 weeks out of a blade before it starts to 'drag' across my scalp. The first few weeks the shave is almost frictionless, very smooth and comfortable. But the price for refill blades 'feels' high. Honestly for the amount of usage I get per blade, it's not- but I was still interested in alternatives. I tried buying some blades from a subscription service a while back. Those blades could have been in a Stephen King novel- they had a taste for human flesh... After being scared back to name brand blades for a few years, I recently picked up some off brand look-alike replacement blades that were being sold on Amazon. Came in packaging that looked very similar to the real deal, had a very similar look but were obviously made over seas and packaged to be direct replacements for half the price. Those blades dragged across my scalp like I was trying to shave with a pine cone. The blades were not jagged, they were just DULL. Apparently they were so bad that by the time I tried to review them, they no longer existed as something that could be reviewed. *They are still being sold, just not the specific set that I purchased. Be aware. I decided to just bite the bullet and purchase the ones I felt were overpriced but perform very well. Saw that Amazon has their own brand. I've purchased a lot of Amazon Basic items over the years, and figured I'd give them a shot. They actually solve a problem I didn't really have. They cost about half price from the name brand, and they shave really well. They are not as sharp and smooth as the name brand razors, I don't want to sell them as that- but they feel good, and have minimal skin drag. I do not think I'll get 6 weeks out of each blade, but I'm confident that I can get at least a month. For comfort I rate them a 4, but I'm adding a star for the value proposition. Cheaper and almost as good as the big boys. I'm good with that, and will repurchase in the future.
