    Hi

    I have used 2 razor blades over the last few years. Gillette Fusion and Mach 3. Down to my last blade now.

    I think I prefer the 3 blade over the 5 blade.

    Thinking of going for another brand. What do people think of Aldi or Lidl?
    Wilkinson sword any good?

    The Aldi 3 blade system is excellent I find.

    Cheap too, 6 heads for €2.50

    I find they last a bit longer than Mach 3 as well

    Changed to DE a couple of years ago too. Bye bye to ingrown hairs.

    I actually tried a DE a few times.

    But I just didn’t like it.

    +1 for DE (+brush and soap/cream) here too. Relatively inexpensive to try, and inexpensive to keep up if you decide it's for you, compared to any of the multi-blade cartridge razors.

    He has made it clear he's not interested in DE. Not everyone has the patience or interest in learning it properly.

    When I used disposables I found the Fusion series to be the best. Also I think I tried the Aldi one which were okay yet cheap enough to replace very regularly (which I was always too cheap to do with Gillette).

    I hear a lot about those Harry's razors. Not sure if they are any good or not though. Must be decent or they'd be out of business I suppose.
