One of the best

This is one of the most effective razor systems I have ever owned and is one I will continue to repurchase. Unfortunately it is more expensive to buy the blades than some other ranges but I know I am getting a quality product with good blades and the guard wires really do help clumsy people like me avoid the need for blood transfusions after shaving.

The handle has great grip but my one issue with this product is ocassionally the blade will fall out without warning but most of the time it is great and I find it easy to use and the pivoting blades make it easy to shave the backs of knees/any awkward curves with ease. The blades also last a long time compared to other brands for similar money so I feel I get better value, and something that lasts longer vs rapidly replacing a bulky full sized disposable razor and I am only disposing of the blade which feels a little more environmentally friendly.

Also this is one shaver where if the moisture strip wears down it doesn't affect the overall performance of the razor as the blade level isn't affected when it wears down, plus the rubberized cushions help with a gentle shave.

Definitely worth investing in and one of the best I have found so far.

Really good razor

I dont like turning into a werewolf by not saving regularly but there are those times, especially in winter where laziness kicks and wearing leggings in anycase so why bother?

Well this razor is perfect for those moments and hair that grows at the speed of thought. I'm quite hair and especially the hair on my legs will grow so quick its nobodys business. I love that the 4 blade razor can tackle a hairy leg in 1 swipe and all the hair the is going. My skin is quite prone to knicking so it would help to have a razor that I dont have go over one piece of skin over and over because the blades are so useless.

This is also great for the underarms and doesnt give me any knicks and cuts and the hair doesnt grow back too quickly when I shave regularly.

The blades are really good quality because I probably only need to replace them after 20 uses, if that. Their also really easy to clean by removing them from the handle and running them under water and its squeaky clean.

Ive tried many razors that are great but this has been my go to and my favourite for probably the last 5 years and I'm not giving up on this honey

Tips: Senstive skin would love this as you wont injure your skin by shaving the same area over and over.

Fantastic review. I've been looking at new razors and I might look at this one after reading your review :)

Quattro blades

I bought these because they were on special at the supermarket. It’s as simple as that as I find most razors perform in a similar way so I am not particularly brand loyal. To be fair I usually use Gillette though.

I shave my legs and underarms regularly, probably a couple of times a week on average. I use body wash to shave with as I generally shower at the gym and don’t want to have to bring an extra product in my already overflowing gym bag.

I usually try to eke out my razors for as long as possible – I hate having to buy new ones, just like I resent buying feminine products.

This razor was much like others I have tried - works well for a few uses then goes blunt. The four blades do provide a nice close shave though. It's pretty expensive so I wouldn't buy it again probably, as I tend to go for cheaper razors since I replace them frequently.

Amen - I hate buying personal hygiene products too - I'd rather buy the products I just want because I like them :)

Shaving Essential

I hate how expensive these things are! But I still keep buying them!

I have been using Schick Quattro for quite some time now. You can usually find it on sale at the supermarket so it makes me feel like I've had a wee win for the day. This is one of those products I refuse to purchase full price as I know I will find them on sale one day.

I love the way that the handle feels in the hand. The pink/peach parts have a rubberised finish so it stays in your hand quite well, despite my uncoordinated-ness I don't drop it (that often). I like that the moisturising bars don't swell up with the moisture in the bathroom making it harder to get a close shave (heres looking at you Venus). The main reason that I keep purchasing this product it that the blades themselves last a decent amount of time before starting to dull.

This will be a staple in my bathroom for a long time to come.

love this Razor!

For the last 6 or so years I've been using the Schick intuition shavers (the ones with the soap around the blade), i find these good but I've been wanting a change and I had a quattro blade in my cupboard to try out.

I am used to shaving in the shower but I've decided to star shaving with foam or cream out of The shower so I can get every hair, i usually always miss a patch otherwise.

anyway, my first impressions of this Razor is that it looks really nice and sleek. I like how the handle is a soft gel/rubber so it feels really nice to hold and it's also a pretty peach color with sparkles in it too.

It has 4 blades and also some conditioning strip around it. The blades give me such a close shave, it doesn't catch on my leg at all and makes it feel silky smooth. I'm not sure if it's the conditioning strip or the fact that I moisturize my legs straight away but I have no dryness issues during the rest of the day. I might get the odd small cut on my knee if I go to fast around that area but my knees are kid of k nobly and I cut them with any other blade I use Anyway!

I think because the 4 blades give me such a close shave, that I also get longer out of the shave vas well which is always a Bonus! I keep my blade in a cupboard after us nd I've used it quite a few times now and it's still perfectly sharp. I know from looking at the supermarket, that the blades are expensive but I guess they all are anyway and because it seems to last a long time and I have to shave less, than I feel like it evens Out!

Yes, I love this razor

For years I used disposable razors, which did the trick, but also left me with nicks and grazes whenever I shaved (that’s more of a testament to my clumsiness than to disposable razors actually, but still). One day, however, my stingy self had a momentary lapse and I found this Schick Quattro razor in my shopping basket – funny how stuff like that sometimes happens. ;) And well, what can I say, this has changed my views – I’m not planning to invest in any more disposables any time soon!

I love the way this looks and feels: the orange textured rubber makes it very easy to grip, and the handle is shaped to fit comfortably in your hand. The head tilts as you move it, which I initially thought would be really annoying, but actually works super well when I’m shaving around my knees, etc. It comes with a little suction hook/hanger thing so it can be stored easily and tidily on the shower wall.

The razor heads have conditioning strips on the top and bottom. Unlike some razors, these aren’t too thick, so they don’t affect the closeness of the shave, but they do help it glide along really smoothly. Personally I always use a shower gel or conditioner (my fave!) as well, but the conditioning strips are handy for in a pinch. The heads are really easy to replace also – they just click on and off.

I find that these give a really close shave, but I never cut or nick my legs with the blades. This is a big deal to be honest, as I’m a pro at doing just that, no matter how hard I try. However the best aspect of these as opposed to other razors is that the blades stay sharp and useable for a relatively long time – I can get a good month’s use out of one head (maybe more, but that’s a bit gross to think about so we’ll pretend I don’t actually do that). That means, even though the blades are fairly pricey, I don’t actually have to repurchase them that often.

I’m definitely a convert!

Schick of these Razors

I was so excited to receive a complimentary razor through a sample company - especially as I'm in a 'I refuse to buy a new razor whilst I'm IPLing' state of mind. But to be honest, my current razor was black with rust, so getting a new one was excellent timing. Unfortunately, my old plastic unfancy rusty one still does a better job.

Now don't get me wrong, I don't hate the Schick Quattro - I really like how pretty it is, how sturdy, and how it feels nice to hold as I shave. Unfortunately I find the head too big to get into the nooks and crannies of my armpit, and the conditioning strip puffed up after the first use meaning I couldn't get a close shave, which rendered the 'long-lasting silky smoothness' claim invalid.

Alas, I chucked out my old razor the moment this arrived on my doorstep, so I'm stuck with it. Although I'm thinking I should just stop being so pigheaded and buy another pack of unfancy razors - that do a much better job for a third of the price.

Schick Quattro for Women

I found this razor very easy to use with great coverage and smooth results. I found the first sweep cut the hairs and I didn't need to go over the same patch of skin twice. It was easy to hold and manoeuvred well around curves especially in the arm pit. Cleaning was very simple also. I am very happy with this product and will continue to use it.

Sturdiest razor I've used

I don't normally shave - I epilate and then shave to get any hairs that I missed. However, this razor does an excellent job. It gets a really close shave to leave your skin silky smooth.

My favourite thing about this razor is that it's made of metal and rubber so it'll last you ages. I like how it feels in my hand - the added weight gives a better sense of control.

Great razor

This Schick razor is my current razor at the moment. Schick is the main brand I associate with hair removal, so it's a brand I reach for all the time when I do my shopping.

This razor looks great quality, as it's of a sturdy metal that feels comfortable in your hands. I love the pretty look of it, which is clear that it's mine (and not my fiancées).

The four blades makes removing hair easy, it glides over your skin taking off the required hair effortlessly. I find razors that have more blades, such as this are far superior.

I've had this razor for a long time now, and I just replace the blades when they feel blunt. The cartridges can be slightly pricey, but I much prefer the close shave and hair removal from this razor, than disposable razors.

A great razor that I would recommend highly and definitely repurchase in the future.
