MicroTouch Solo Review: First Look | As Seen on TV

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

MicroTouch Solo is a dry razor that trims, edges, and shaves. It's a lot like the Philips OneBlade, but $10-$15 cheaper. This is my first look review.

    I currently use the Micro Touch Solo shaver and it works just fine to me....except for the fact that I've had a few flaws with the razor heads, they keep breaking off everytime that I try to clean out the part of the razor where the facial hair clippings collect. So I bought a second one to use as a spare in case that I break or loose the other shaver that I'm currently using. But other than that I don't think the product is considered to be a piece of junk, no it's all in the matter of how you use the product.

    I received this for Christmas and I like it. I'm glad i watched your video though. It's always better watching someone use it before I try it on myself and I'm glad i did. The 1 millimeter blade worked good but it did take several runs over the same spots to get all the strays off. Its a good razor though. Would have preferred a better angle for the edging.

    I just bought one and I see why it's not a smooth blade - it's not designed for smooth shaves. if you read the package, it says "SHAVE to a perfect stubble". So this is for geting it as short as possible when you can't do a regular shave or to help avoid razor bumps. But I do like the trimming which is always the one thing we who keep facial hair find hardest. This may be the best item for good even trimming while having the feel of a regular razor. more comfortable in the hand.

    I bought mine from Amazon and it came with an USB connector. I charged it up and tried it on my face hair and it was pretty good. it left a little bit of stubble, but that was fine. I tried it on my arm hair, and it did great! I got carried away and cut most of it off! Anyway, it is the best razor I ever bought. I wondered why mine has an USB cable.

    It really is a good choice for people that prefer electric. I have ridiculously sensitive skin. No combo of shaving cream and special razor will ever work for me no matter how many people recommend secret fixes. It's been almost 20 years since my facial hair came in, and this is near the top of any electric I've used. The recharging USB cord is a big plus, since my since my son's toys take all the batteries in my home.

    I used the OneBlade for a couple years but was looking for a cheaper more durable alternative. The oneblade's blades break on me all the time. It make no sense to use delicate soft plastic as a spring. I was just about to try Remington's version but really didn't want to spend the money since I had just bought a OneBlade blade but it broke 2nd time using. Luckily I randomly found the Solo at Burlington for $12.99. It's been months now and haven't replaced the blade yet but Amazon has a 3pack for $13.99. All around much better than OneBlade.

    To be honest I'm only interested in this thing because I want to use it exclusively for my downstairs but it's sadly not to be.

    Does it matter how thick your beard is?Been looking for something good for years.Saw that at Walmart for the same price.Might have to get one.

    I'd say my beard thickness is average, so I don't think that is much of a factor.

    I lost my one blade but this is definitely a good alternative to it & I actually got it at a discounted store, very good deal.
