  Nothing special, I don't have much experience with such razors but it didn't impress me that much. Overall, the difference is made by the blade you choose! The shaving you will get is clearly a matter of the blade. The only positive thing about this particular one is the ability to adjust the angle of the blade for a closer shave. It's not worth 21+ euros at all, it is mass-produced in China and you can find thousands of identical ones that only differ in branding on Chinese websites for 2 - 3€.

  Very good build quality, comes in a case. I don't know what more other machines offer at a much higher three-digit price... There is an adjustable setting from 1 to 6 for a closer shave. From 1 to 3, even a beginner won't get cut. But from 4 onwards, it requires attention. Overall, I am very satisfied.

  I have had it for almost 2 years since Starovas started uploading videos for traditional shaving during the quarantine and we had exhausted them all. Well, even though I had started with a Lord razor that I had butchered as a novice, I never had any particular issues with this one. It's durable, adjustable, and as you gain experience over time, you climb the ladder just fine with this razor. Very good, if it broke, I would go back to it even if it's a copy. Great value for money

  The machine is indeed remarkable, the comments and opinions I read are accurate, it is the best thing that has come into my hands so far. I have used Wilkinson, Feather, Nipavo, King Gillette, etc. It is by far the most high-quality, functional, and customizable machine I have used, it is worth its price and the last cent. I tried it with good known green razors as well as those of "okas" Wilkinson, bic, etc., with excellent results. Clearly, a good quality razor will save you time and possibly irritation because you will make fewer passes. The machine is customizable in terms of the aggressiveness of the blade in 12 levels (1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, etc.), it does not clog, it is easy to clean, it is sturdy and well-balanced, while the finish and the material of construction exude quality of another category. It is a purchase that will satisfy even the most demanding and will make the ritual of shaving enjoyable.

  After the first try with a Feather Double Edge, which proved to be excellent despite its low price, I decided to try this one because of its adjustable head. The build quality is excellent and resembles a more expensive razor. It has the ideal weight to cut on its own without pressure from the hand, with the only complaint being that I would prefer it to have a square and textured handle so that it doesn't slip with wet hands. The clicks of the mechanism have a nice feel with a satisfying positive lock. I used the third setting in combination with ASTRA's green blades and the result with two passes was exemplary. I would also prefer it to come in a plastic closed case that would make it more convenient for travel. If the included settings are not of interest to someone, I consider the Feather Double Edge to be a better purchase, as it has a better grip with the square handle and comes with a storage case. Of course, this particular one is a work of art in terms of quality compared to the plastic Feather, which is more practical.

  Second time trying this type of shaving and I must say that it has won me over. The first time I tried a noname razor without adjustments and with poor quality blades, resulting in pieces coming off. With 8 days of beard growth, I started with the lowest setting and gradually increased to level 2, where I completed the shave. Although for some it may be a negative, personally I found it beneficial that it is more aggressive on one side for certain areas where I needed it without changing the setting. As a beginner, I highly recommend it for a proper shave with excellent results and no irritation. Out of excitement, I also bought the Feather razors, but after the advice of the saleswoman, I also got the green Astra blades as they are less aggressive, so as not to butcher myself, and I used them with the aforementioned results.

  I received it today and I couldn't help but inaugurate it since I had a 7-day beard. My first experience with this shaving method, as I have been using the Philips One Blade Pro QP6510/20 for the past few years, and the only experience I had that was not the best was with the known disposable razors from BIC and Gillette.

  I used the Feather New Hi-Stainless Platinum Coated razors based on the reviews here again. Comfortable shaving at level 6 without cuts or irritations, and it is also fast and incredibly satisfying. It truly leaves the skin incredibly smooth. I forgot to use Pre-Shaving Cream, which I think would have made the experience even more enjoyable.

  As for the construction, it is sturdy, well-made, and I really wonder what more a similar one from another brand at 70-90 euros would have. Overall, I am very satisfied.

  Good machine, with its handle, heavy in the hand, does the job with its weight, requires no effort, very gentle on the face. With 5-4 passes, you can quickly achieve enjoyable results and look great. No irritations at all.
  On the downside, the razor blade doesn't come out the same on both sides. On one side, it protrudes 1mm less. So, it shaves more aggressively on one side.

  I have no experience with the original, but I found that with its settings, the problems I had with regular razors and safety razors with continuous irritations and cuts in specific areas disappeared.

  Excellent results with this Merkur Futur clone machine. A surprise!
  Take some time to adjust its settings to fit your face.
  Personally, at 3, it worked and behaved perfectly for everyday use!
  Proper weight, good finish. My favorite blades are 7'o clock, parma sharp, and generally any that cut a little more but in good quality.
  Careful cleaning and disinfection after each use!
  Zero irritations!

  Flawless adjustable razor!!! It is a clone of the Merkur Futur. It has settings from 1 (mild) to 6 (aggressive). It is quite heavy, allowing it to glide smoothly on the skin without applying any pressure and causing irritations. Very nice appearance and excellent blade alignment! It is definitely worth it as a purchase!
