The razor (the handle) broke on my third use. Not really zero waste if I have to replace it that often.

Neat Mechanics
The razor body itself is very sturdy and weighted. It cranks off the top to easily switch out blades. I will say, the first time I used it, I cut myself a lot because I’m not used to have a set head that doesn’t move to the curves and different areas of the body. It’s a really good alternative to shaving without producing so much waste.

Solid razor, a few critiques
The razors last about 1 1/2 - 2 weeks depending on how often you shave. Be careful though, the handle is very slippery, it slipped out my hand when shaving my armpit and cut my chest. I used this razor and blades with the Eco Roots save bar soap and they are a good combo. I have had the razor for 2 years now and it started to rust after 1year . I recommend taking it out of the shower and storing it in a dry place after each use.

I think it’s a good product. For a period of time, it allowed me to reduce my waste and still get a very clean shave. But I don’t think it is worth the cost, given how easily breakable they are. I dropped it in the shower (the handle is very slippery) and it broke and the top can’t screw in anymore. They claim it’s “less expensive in the long run” but I’m wondering if that’s really the case given that now I have to either buy another or find another option, for something I invested in because I thought it would last a lifetime.

Part of my reason for choosing this particular one is that it’s pretty, but that’s not my only reason for being happy with it! It does a great job and makes me happy to use it. I had a good experience with the company. And I didn’t realize until I got it how much I’d like the simplicity of knowing I’ll just need to replace the blade (not a whole plastic cartridge) and this thing will last the rest of my life. I’ve recently started thinking all about how I’m taking care of my items (next up: learn sewing machine maintenance) and this razor feels perfectly in line with my values.
