You would think something as simple as a razor, could easily be developed and work fine, but the fine people at Schick have made a razor, so inept, so ridiculous in its shittiness that its reached new levels. Someone could invent tuna fish flavored toothpaste, with a retractable phillips screwdriver at the end of the tube, and it would be better than this POS.
Anyway, from the beginning. I had a coupon for it, free razor cartridges when you buy a razor. The cartridges are like $10 apiece anymore, so I thought hey, what the hell. I got one with a battery operated trimmer on the end. Actually, that thing is worthless to me as I found out, as its useless unless you're trying to grow some goatee or something. No biggie.
Lather up with shaving cream, give it a shot, not bad for the first swipe or so. Rinse off the razor. Try rinsing some more. Oh wait for some reason you can't even rinse the hair off the fucker, its clogged, because the entire back of the fucking razor blade is blocked off by the handle behind it. So there's no way to stick the back under the sink and use the water pressure to clean it out. Oh, and because its 4 blades, there's no room between the blades to get any hair off spraying in the front either.
So realizing this is going to take an hour, and it feels like something close to shaving with a windshield ice scraper at this point, I get some toilet paper to try to get as much hair out of the blades as possible. Not really working, but its better than before. But oh wait, holding the top of the blade I realize looking as the blood coming out of my finger that the oh so convineient edging blade at the very top of the razor (not in the blade itself, literally ON TOP of the blade) shredded my finger as I was holding the piece of shit to wipe as much hair off as possible. Good times. It's like they sit there in a room and said "hey lets design a razor SO shitty, than when you shave, it clogs up! And then, when they try to hold the razor down and wipe it clean, it cuts their fingers! PERFECT!"
Thanks you Schick, I really didn't think it was possible to fuck a razor up, this bad. A new level of product development shittiness has been reached.
