It does its job with a good razor but I need to avoid closing it all the way and adjust it a bit so it shaves deeper, so it requires some caution as there will be small cuts

I bought it in 2021 for 12.30 and it is excellent. Very vfm. The replacement blades cost around 2 euros at the supermarket, very economical compared to the replacements from other razors. Also, dry it after each use poor thing so it doesn't rust.

I don't know how it has good reviews, really. Especially if you have thick hair, it requires many passes and pressure with the sharpest blade, while it has no weight at all, and it's not smooth on the skin, resulting in irritation without even cutting deeply. There are much better machines for the same or slightly higher price. Avoid it

Excellent machine, very well-balanced, easy and practical, you immediately understand its excellent construction quality, cheap yes because it also uses plastic parts, but it is well-made and shaves smoothly and without difficulties. Japanese-made, highly recommended especially for beginners

The first safety razor I tried, but in the end, it is too mild for me, resulting in the need for many repetitions even with the famous Feather blades and causing irritation.

With a price of 12 euros, I don't think the cost is prohibitive for a trial. For beginners, it is good because it requires a lot of effort to cut, but on the other hand, it can also give the wrong impression about safety razors in general. For example, I didn't find it suitable for me, and after research, I ended up being satisfied with the Muhle R 41, which others consider too aggressive. As for construction, it is fine even though the head contains plastic parts. Beyond that, whether it will suit someone, I consider it purely subjective.

Well.
First of all, the machine is fine.
But it is definitely not better than the lord l6 or the king c, and for me, not even better than the nipavo and Wilkinson classic.
That is, all the above, which are the same price or less, are worth more.
However.
It shaves decently and I rate it one notch above the Wilkinson butterfly.
From there on, it's up to you to judge and choose.
Here are some characteristics:
1) It is lightweight compared to others.
2) It is very gentle, which means it won't perform well if you use blades that are not sharp. Imagine, at a cutting level, the minimum it takes to be efficient is the astra platinum.
3) It is not chrome, so it feels a bit rough and catches salts.
It is worth it for the price, but compared to the others, it is not.
From there on, the conclusions are yours.

I acquired it ten days ago and I have done my first three shaves coming from Gillette max 3. I am a special case as I shave my face and head, so Gillette was not cost-effective as they dull easily and every month you need to spend ten euros for replacements! I read the advantages of this type of razors, but in the case of the head especially, I was afraid of cuts. I was proven wrong in the most pleasant way! With a good preparation including warm washing, pre-shave oil, no pressure on the machine (let it cut with its weight) and not against the grain on the first pass, the result was amazing! Deep shaving and no irritation or cuts. The process - ritual is actually so enjoyable that I look forward to the next shave every time!

Very lightweight plastic construction, you need to apply pressure to get a close shave, resulting in cuts if you're a beginner like me. For this price, I would recommend the king c.

Easy and safe, but it is aimed at those who have thin or soft beards, even with feather razors, which are the sharpest, it struggles resulting in either having to do many repetitions or pressing it to achieve a good result.
Ideal for teenagers, for body shaving, for Japanese... all others will remain unshaven...

I am new to the PC world and I wanted an affordable security machine to see if I like the hobby. It is a mediocre machine that, for someone like me who has many and tough generations, struggles and has difficulty, resulting in multiple restarts and irritations. I recommend it to people with few and soft generations, but not to those with many generations.

Incredibly good! I was in a dilemma about my razor and while searching, I came across this specific machine! The name Feather, of my beloved hopes, challenged me to buy it! It is incredibly good with such a low cost! Also, very skin-friendly! Especially for beginners and teenagers, I would recommend it as the first choice!

Excellent machine, it really takes effort to cut with it... I had started wet shaving with a Lord razor, a completely entry-level one, and I was disappointed. And to be fair to Lord, their razors are clearly better than the machine. In conclusion, it is highly recommended for beginners and non-beginners alike. Best value for money.

Very good... Very good indeed
Quality and nicely balanced

Yes, the handle is plastic but personally I don't find any problem with that.
Certainly, it cannot be compared to those that cost 40-50-60+ euros, but for a start, it is the definition of value for money.

As a newcomer to traditional shaving, I decided not to take risks and try it first. As soon as I get the hang of it, I will buy a better one.

Regarding the razor, it shaves very well, quite good results, and definitely by far better than the expensive Mach3 razors, etc.
To cut yourself, you have to try very hard. Very hard.
With a complete package of pre-shave and good shaving cream, the razor glides like butter on the skin without irritating or causing pain no matter how many passes you make.

I recommend it to anyone who is considering switching to traditional shaving

New to traditional shaving, I have been incredibly pleased and I am happy to shave with this machine now. Once you get used to it, you no longer go back to the other machines. Flawless shaving with Feather Hi Stainless Platinum Double Edge Blades without irritations and skin so smooth that makes you want to shave every day. At this price, there is no competitor.

Very nice machine. Nice feeling in the hand, special shaving. Definitely value for money, and even though the handle is made of plastic, you don't notice it, the build quality is superb.

After so many good reviews and considering its popularity abroad, I believed it would be something special. It is just a good razor. There are other razors that do the same job well for the same price. I had also read very good things about the blades. And they are just good. They are not the best. I believe blades like the persona platinum are more skin-friendly. Also, in the package I received, they give a box of blades as a gift, while I had seen that abroad there is a package with 2 gift boxes. It is better to prefer a razor that has a metal head. This one here has plastic parts as well.

It is, I think, the most value for money machine for a beginner who is starting now. It is gentle and its basic mechanism is made of metal, so I believe it will last for several years. It is definitely not the top machine, but you can still shave well with it. It has not caused me any problems at all and it also has a plastic packaging so you can take it with you on trips.

Since I am new to the shaving world and this is my first razor, all I can say is that the razor is well-balanced in the hand and does not require much effort in shaving, especially with the feather Platinum blades. It takes some effort to get a close shave with this razor. I highly recommend it for beginners like myself.

Excellent experience. I am new to traditional shaving, and I must admit the safety and quality of shaving that this machine can offer.
Even with small beards, it does not "get stuck". And the most important thing is that you can rinse it with water and continue shaving.

Flawless with good weight and a large handle. The price is very low for what it offers and it is a product of a very good company. Try blades to find what suits you.

Very good machine, it has everything. Excellent Japanese construction, perfect for a second machine for any trips. I, however, will probably make it my first even though I have a Merkur Progress 500, which is also very good. To get back to the Feather, it is perfect, especially for someone who is just starting traditional shaving or has very sensitive skin. It is very gentle, one has to "try" to cut themselves. I highly recommend it without hesitation

Very good product to switch from regular razors to safety razors. Perfect for beginners and helps you learn without cutting yourself and irritating the skin.

Excellent for its price, awesome Japanese design, ideal for newcomers in the world of wet shaving, a trustworthy product with the Feather seal.

For beginners, it is perfect. It has a guard so the blade is not aggressive. It has a long handle and it is very cheap. Overall, it is ideal for beginners. I have had it for 2 years, but now I am thinking of switching to an open comb... very good machine

I have it since last year, and I shave almost every day with tough beard and water full of salt. Amazing machine, very lightweight, very easy to handle and smooth. It runs like water on the skin. It doesn't get damaged. It's for a lifetime. Whoever tries it, will only shave with this. And it's also original Japanese = dog.
