Fantastic reviews for the Azor continue to flood into Nicky's inbox at King of Shaves. Here are just a few.
• 'Hi, I thought I would drop you email on my thoughts about the new Azor. Just purchased this morning and used it for the first time. What a brilliant rAzor. Cleanest, closest shave of my life. Will defiantly be using more King of Shave products in the future.'
• 'I feel compelled to write back to thank you for your so very prompt reply to my query and also to tell you that I have managed to find some Azor razors in Sainsbury's and they do in fact live up to the good reports I have read.'
• 'Success! I bought an Azor at Sainsbury's store at Castle Marina Nottingham on July 4. I thought it would be useful for you to know that it was the last one in stock. I have now used it 3 times and am pleased to report that you have developed an outstanding product. May I wish you and your colleagues every success.'
• 'I have tried the Azor again, with a fresh blade and a different shaving gel (KOS Kinexium (the orange one)) and have to say the results were quite amazing, I feel a bit foolish after my original e-mail to you in such a negative tone, is it possible the first blade was no good? A good, very close shave which has passed my wife's kiss test!'
• 'I would like to give some feedback on the use of the new Razor. Having used king of shave products in the past I thought I would give the new razor a go, I was more than pleasantly surprised with the ergonomic feel to the form, also how well it cuts through the stubble. I have been using the initial blade daily for over 1 week with no cuts to face,(goodbye Gillette power super dooper), my only criticism is that it could do with a extra blade for under the nose area. Again thank you and if you would like to send me any samples then I won't complain.'
• 'I recently bought an Azor having seen the article in Shortlist magazine.
To be honest I've never used any King of Shaves products before. I had also bought a cheap Boots own make razor a few weeks previously having got completely fed up of the rising cost of a Gillette razor. As the Azor appeared at a time when I was getting frustrated with the poor shave from the boots razor I've been delighted with the results. I'll definitely be using the £1 voucher to stock up on cartridges. I felt I had to get in touch and let you know how pleased I am with the Azor. Whilst I know about introductory pricing, I hope that positioning the Azor as a cheaper alternative to top of the range Gillette and Wilkinson sword razors will be a permanent strategy. Particularly given the rising cost of living as a whole.'
• 'Just wanted to say 'good for you' with the launch of the new Azor. Good to see someone who embraces the less is more (mor) approach and understands what the consumer really wants.'
-----------------
So, that's good news! Of course, there are some people who haven't got on with the Azor quite as well as the guys above, however these are in the tiny minority compared to overall feedback. It's important to note that you can easily shave under your nose by holding the tip of your nose back & up with your index finger, and shave vertically down - the TST hinge will bend back and its pressure will allow you to get those pesky hairs immediately under your nostrils
In addition, regarding storage - some of you have pointed out that we don't supply a 'storage unit'. This was a deliberate choice to avoid extra packaging, as in our research most of these were simply binned. You can store the Azor particularly elegantly by sliding it back into the cartridge tray - see the photo above!
Happy shaving!
