One Blade

Another vote for Phillips OneBlade, they trim nice & close without nicking the skin, but not so close to irritate, so long as you don't shave like a ham handed sasquatch that is.

A tip for switching to a double bladed safety razor if you do go that route though; buy a sampler pack of 5-10 different manufacturer blades & try them all, what works for everyone else, might not for you.

The online consensus when I bought mine was that the Gillette Silver/Blue & the Astra Superior Platinum were the ones to go with, best blades & most consistent.

It turned out the Astra was WAY too sharp for me, and the Silver/Blue tugged & caused irritation. I landed on the Gillette platinum & Shark Super, bought a box of the Gillette, and they are still going strong to this day.

One of the most important things too, find your interval for replacing blades. I only use mine for trimming, so I can get a solid 4-5 uses out of a blade before I need to replace it, if you go clean shaven, that might be 1-2 at most.

Good luck!

I’ve got the garmin mini. Has great reviews. It was pricey. But has been very reliable. I think you get what you pay for with these things.

Been using the blue waterproof Remington trimmer set for around 5 years now. Just had to replace the blades a couple months ago. Battery lasts a long time. Still running strong. Use it for beard and body grooming.

I have used a Wahl Groomsman with a Li-Ion battery for roughly 20 years. I got about 12 or 13 years out of my 1st one shaving my beard and my head once ir twicea week. This 2nd one has just been the beard once a week. I oil it every few months and they make replaceable blades for them.

I use the Philips OneBlade! I used to suffer from shaving irritation due to sensitive skin and similar to you, a safety razor kept most of the irritation away, but messy and time-consuming. I just took off about 3-4 weeks of beard this morning with my OneBlade that is overdue for a blade replacement. It's lightweight, quick, economical and gives me a close enough shave - without irritation!

I've been using the Wahl Peanut for about 20 years. It was recommended by my hair stylist. After ten years my first one burnt out. So far the current one is doing fine. Just needs a drop of oil every few weeks.

Call auto detail shops and see what brands they use.

Straight razors are cool but fairly high maintenance. Double edge safety razors use disposable blades that cost pennies and can potentially last dozens of shaves (or more), and also give a much more comfortable shave than cartridges once you get the hang of it. You can check out the wiki over at r/wetshaving if you’re interested.

I actually have a vintage straight razor that I restored and it does not give me razor burn. I just don’t have the time to maintain it for regular use.

Andis and Wahl make good quality products. I currently use Andis professional grade trimmers after finding the Wahls home line to not be great.
Or, go look into using safety razors / wet shaving if you’re looking for a better way of shaving despite ‘sensitive’ skin.

We have Pennsylvania House stuff that has gone through three kids and 50 years of use. Still tight but needs a refinish.

It isn’t veneer.

We have 2 Catit fountains. Our first one is going on 5 years and still has the original motor. We purchased a second one 2 years ago because our dog loves it as much as our 2 cats. For being made of plastic, they sure have been durable.

THIS FOUNTAIN!! It’s the best I’ve found. It is easy to clean, silent, and holds lots of water. Unlike most fountains, if the power goes out, your cat can still get to the water. There are multiple places where cats can drink — one of my cats likes to drink from the moving water area and another prefers to drink from the main ‘bowl’ area. Highly highly recommended.

We have one made by Catit. It works well but we can't use it as my cats just play in it and make a huge mess.

I've bought 2 cheap ones from Amazon (do not know the name brands, just picked the 2 cheapest options in the colors I wanted that used affordable filters). Paid about $20 each and they've been going for over 3 years. I completely take apart and scrubs them every 2 weeks and change the filters once a month. The filter part is the biggest cost. I made sure that the fountains both used a size/shape that I could buy in bulk for $20 a year instead of $8 a month.

This is the one we use, it's funny what cats will decide is strange and scary and what they love, isn't it? I agree that the one they will drink from is the one that's best.

I know you said no plastic, but the catit brand water fountain with the little daisy in the middle has been a favorite of my 4 cats for going on 5 years now. You can run all the parts but the pump through the dishwasher, and replacement pumps are under $10 on amazon, I have ordered one every 2 years or so. I tried a few different nicer looking ceramic or glass bowls with a pump but they really like the choice between the flat surface of the fountain and the little streams of water running off the flower petals, so that's what I went back to.

Love this 💛

Thank you. I'm very thankful for you posting this fountain. Heavy on the startup, but in the long run saves money on filters and motors. It's definitely got me thinking...
