    Default Dollar Shave Club

    Anyone else catch their commercial?



    Anyone else give them a try?

    I decided to give this a go. The commercial was rather engaging and to be quite frank, I think its insane how much the razor refills cost. I signed up for $6/month option which is a 4 blade deal.

    I placed my order Thursday mid day and had the shaver Saturday... First impression, looks excellent. Handle is of good quality and blades look rather nice.

    I decided to give this a side by side test with my normal razor (I have been using a Schick 3 blade deal). Not only did a get a closer shave I didnt get any nicks! My Schick I had multiple nicks and the shave wasnt as close.

    So $6 out the door for (4) razor refills a month. That is $1.50 a week versus $2.50+ on the other I used.

    If you click my link above and sign up I get a free month. This is not the basis of this thread, nor is it meant to spam. I am just impressed with what I got and what was paid. I also think its a novel idea and that commercial is just funny stuff.

    I used them for a few months. The razors are ok, I tried the 4X and the Executive. I shave my entire head every other day. I found that it was taking a lot longer to get a close shave and the blades did not last as long.... disappointing because I hate paying for the Gillette.

    I use the electric shaver too, actually I have to use it first since my skin is so sensitive.

    Knowing I have a new blade each week I will probably use it at least 2-3x's a week now. Before I only did it once.
