My experience with Harry's was "meh"
Just to be clear, I didn't buy this exact set...but Amazon does not list the Winston set (that I bought) which was being sold prior to the holidays.  I would assume the only difference is the cosmetics.  The razors should be identical.<br /><br />I decided to try Harry's after being a Gillette guy for years (I'm 57).  I've used the OLD blue plastic, twin blade disposables...all the way up to the Fusion Proglide.  I was typically happy with the Gillette shave, but was looking for a better ROI.  After reading a lot of site reviews at sites like AskMen, I chose Harry's instead of one of the other options like Dollar.<br /><br />Harry's Pros:<br />Looks good<br />Trimmer blade (all razors should have one)<br />Aftershave balm feels and smells nice<br /><br />Cons:<br />Feels a little cheap for the price<br />The 5 blades are tough to get clean<br />The foaming shave gel is REALLY tough to get out of the blades and it doesn't lubricate that well<br /><br />The shave delivered by the razor is neither a pro nor con...just run of the mill.  I didn't notice a real difference between it and my Mach 3 or Proglide.  Also, the blades seem to last about as long as the Gillette's.  One thing that was disappointing (I should have read the fine print), Harry's doesn't recommend it's razor for your head.  I shave my face or head every day...I have a close-cropped Van Dyke and a shaved head, so I alternate shaving each, each morning.  I've been using this set for several weeks now, so I've given it a pretty good shot.<br /><br />I can neither recommend nor reject Harry's...and as well all know, your mileage may vary.
