Defender Razor Reviews

I like using the Defender Razor because it's cheap for refills and it doesn't get clogged with hair like others that I have used.

Length of Use: 6–12 months

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Been a Harry's customer for years but thought I would give this a try. Not impressed and did not get a close shave. Going back to my Harry's razor.

Length of Use: Less than 3 months

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Very poor quality blades. In sharpness, it is comparable to disposable blades that you can buy from Dollar Tree or from Walmart in bundles. I won't buy it again.

Length of Use: Less than 3 months

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I have tried many razors. This is by far the best. I am a new customer and will continue to order. I ordered 4 of them. I have used the 1st one 6 times with a smooth shave. Just started using #2.

Length of Use: Less than 3 months

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

At first, I was not impressed with the quality of the unit. A little light, etc. Did a dry shave to test cut quality. OMG! Smooth as a baby's bottom! Very clean-cut one first pass. I'm impressed!

Length of Use: Less than 3 months

I honestly really wanted to love this product but it's so bad. I thought it was amazing and I'm so mad I wasted $6 on this product for technically a 1-time use razor in my case, because I will not be purchasing any more blades. The handle is made out of such cheap plastic, I actually first thought the handle was metal but I would have been okay with plastic if it were high quality and sturdy, but it's just so cheaply made. The blades are so bad, they are not sharp at all, and they do not cut through hair easily. The Gillette blade I have used for 43 months straight is better than this. I just received my Defender Razor today and it cut me up, I flexed the blades to see how well they bend and they don't, the flexibility in it is awful.

Please, if you thought about purchasing this like I did, saw all the ads, the videos, even reviews from people saying it's decent, don't buy it. I wanted to love this so bad so I finally purchased it and I am furious.

Smooth and comfortable handle, past perfection blade design. The blades rise so well and so easy, thus prolonging the blade way past any other on the market. The shaving oil and the shaving creme are both top-notch products. Super super happy to find this club after other dollar clubs failed me!

Length of Use: Less than 3 months

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Just absolutely horrible. It's like dragging a metal rake across your skin. Was amazed. This has to be some sort of joke. It is the worst razor I have ever used in my life.

Length of Use: Less than 3 months

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I'm a bit underwhelmed. The hype was more than the execution. The minimizing of blade clogging seems to be the only real advancement with this razor. Otherwise, the shave is not any closer, nor do the blades last any longer than other razors on the market. And honestly, razor clogging hasn't been a big issue for me. You shake the razor under water and tap it out. Not a big deal. I'm more interested in having a set of blades that last longer than 4 or 5 full face shaves and that I don't have to go over the same spot multiple times to get a close cut.

Length of Use: Less than 3 months

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Terrible, it doesn't glide well, doesn't shave well, worst clogging blade ever.

I saw it advertised on Facebook with so many great reviews...

Well, I still see it on Facebook, I left my review there and man, they are on it like lightning removing any review that doesn't praise their product as the best.

Their razor clogs worse than my 5 blades and it's the hardest to get the hair out. Back to 3 blades for me.

Length of Use: 3–6 months

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Great marketing, nice design, ugly blades. The company should spend a few dollars on blades, everyone will be happy.

First try, a lot of cuts, redness...And my skin is pretty normal.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

After seeing a very nice promo video and so many good reviews, I decided to give it a try. Unfortunately, I have to say this razor is far from being a revolutionary blade. It is not even close to Gillette Proglide, it seems to be a regular blade you find any grocery store/pharmacy. Disappointed.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I liked Defender best of all for shaving my head every day. Harry's doesn't cut it and Dollar Shave Club doesn't either. And particularly the fancy droppable handle on Dollar Shave Club breaks!

Defender lasts the longest of head shaving and is the smoothest for every day. I change out a blade every week. If pressed, I can go a couple more days with a blade. Never could using Dollar Shave Club or Harry's.

I don't know how it compares to the big money Gillettes. They are simply too expensive.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

The Defender is not smooth, tugs and burns. I used both regular and sensitive blades, just not comfortable, Harry's is still the best.

I have to shave over spots to get an effective shave, I feel there is some defect in the make of the blades.

I would not recommend the Defender. It is only good when the beard is light but still hurts.

I do not have sensitive skin and never experienced the discomfort I have with the Defender.

I don't understand some of the rave reviews.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I shave every other day both my face and my head. It is a breeze to shave with the Defender. Easy motion with standard blades. The gliding of the razor is a pleasure. Rinsing had been a problem with other blades I've used over the years. Both clogging and getting dull too quickly has been a problem that is now solved. My beard is not a heavy one so the blades used prior would go over the hair. The flexibility of the Defender makes shaving a pleasure (almost).

Even when I skip a few days, I don't encounter problems. I heartedly recommend these blades to any man that shaves.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

This razor does what it says it will do: shave close, shave smooth, and clean up easily. It glides nicely over my skin, even the tough corners around the lips, with no nicks and no harder pressure required. I go a few days between shaves, and the longer hair clogs up other multi-blades I’ve used quickly. Not so with the Defender, and it cleans up with a quick shake under the faucet. Four or five shaves per blade. The best blade I’ve used.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Bought this because the concept made sense. Unfortunately, the reality is that the blades are not up to par, the spacing makes them less effective than traditional twin blade razors and most annoyingly, the suction cup pops off my shower door every time I try to remove the razor...lol.

The blades dulled very quickly although I only shave every other day. I'm on my third blade in a little under three months. I can't recommend this product.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

For years I used a Bic disposable for sensitive skin. I decided to give Defender a try and lo and behold, I switched. It gives a closer shave than the Bic and it doesn't irritate my skin. It's more expensive than a Bic but I think it's worth it.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I have been a Harry’s customer for 2+ years. Good shave but hard to clean blades out. I’ve been using Defender for a month. I really like it. It glides on my face and head better than any razor I’ve ever used. I can put a little more pressure on the razor without nicks and/or razor burn. Shave is close. Blades clean easily and it lasts me about 2 weeks...same as Harry’s blades. I use Cremo Shave Cream...best around for the money. I like the company culture and customer service is very responsive and helpful. They also support our military men and women.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I thought I would try after reading reviews. These are not high-end blades, I had to I had to grab my Sensor Power Razor, after a minute it would not cut my beard at all. Once I grabbed by Sensor, I could shave! These are a joke and falsely portrayed as good blades.

Get a Sensor and then you will have a good blade.

As an African American male with coarse hair, I would like to say the Defender Razor is not a scam. I have a tender head when it comes to shaving and I've tried everything known to men from. The Art of Shaving, Andis Trimmers, Wahls Finale, Andis ProFoi, Bevel, and of cause Gillette Razors that are so expensive. My hair is a challenge every time I have to shave. So, today I decided to try the Defender Razor and I am so like "WOW." Thank you for thinking outside the box. Please, watch the video. Because every word said in the video is so true. I shaved my head after two days off and my head did not hurt. It felt great to shave without the pain of shaving. I can't thank you enough. I am a customer for life.

Sorry, I ripped up the receipt before I saw the comment "The Defender Razor is a Scam" and customers only giving it one star. That does not sit well with me. Let the TRUTH be TOLD. Time for a change and this is a great razor. Yes, it's LEGIT.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

You cannot try it for $5.00. That is just for the handle. Try shaving without a razor. The cost for 4 razors and handle is $12.90. Their statement is fraudulent.

"Defender's blades are set further apart, so your razor rinses clean and doesn't clog. It's one of our customers' favorite 'Why didn't anybody else think of that?' features. Try it for yourself for only $5 + free shipping."

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I am an old retired cop and cynical as hell! I bought this razor expecting the usual sub-par performance. It is without a doubt the best razor I have ever used. And I have used them all! Always with the same complaint, the darn things clog up with debris. This one does not and it did a fantastic job in about half the time!

Thank you, I will be a loyal customer from here on out. I shave my head, and it’s usually a struggle! No more! It literally slicked my head as smooth as a baby’s butt!

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Next to disposable razors, this razor is pretty bad. The handle is thin and hard to control. The blades aren't as sharp as Gillette blades. The shaving is not as smooth as Gillette. Over all, it's not a good quality razor and not a bargain at all. I would not recommend.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I’ve tried the Dollar Shave Club, tried Harry’s . They both have the same issues. Too many blades, which seems to be their selling point, but all it does is make it harder to clean the blades while shaving. You have to stop many times in the process just to clean your blades. With Defender blades, it is not an issue and the extra blades the others have on the back of the razor is not necessary because the blades on the Defender is close enough to the edge you can shave next to your nose. The moving Blades definitely cuts closer and gives me cleaner shaves in less time. Hands down the best. By the way, I use it to shave my head every three days. Blades last over a month.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

My only regret is that this review doesn't allow me to post a picture so people can see how great this product actually works. I hear all of you and how some of you are satisfied and many of you aren't. Truth be told, I have used so many different products including the HeadBlade. Defender is by far the best product out there, and the only time I have cut myself is when I had little bumps on my head from sweating. I was so impressed with this razor that not only did I order the dual blade handle, but I ordered the standard handle as well, which my wife uses as well.

My wife uses her razor daily and never cuts herself, I use my razor every two or three days and I never cut myself. We both get a smooth shave, The problem for most men is that there is a way to hold the razor when shaving your head so it gives you that smooth shave you want and a lot of men don't know that. And the fact that the blade is flexible, that makes it even easier to get the shave I want for my head. I used to use HeadBlade and switched to Defender, I would support this brand of razors even to the point where I promote them free of charge on my radio station. This razor could work wonders in hospitals. And again I am only sorry I cannot upload a picture of my head, it is guaranteed that you would change your opinion after seeing it. Defender, I support your product and thank you for making my shave so much easier and smoother.

The Defender Razor is one of the best. I've tried the Dollar Club, I've tried them all, and this razor really works because of the distance between the blades. To my surprise, with just running water the Defender rinsed out very cleanly without any problem. And closing the blade does exactly what it states is going to do and I'm thoroughly impressed, and I will continue to use them.
