Perfecto Deluxe Chrome Razor and Brush Stand - The Best Safety Razor Stand. This Will Prolong The Life of Your Shaving Brush, metal

Fantastic quality. I was a bit hesitant at first to purchase a stand, but I had just got into shaving with a traditional safety razor (great decision by the way) and I felt the stand was necessary; particularly for ensuring the Badger brush retained its texture and shape. This stand not only serves its purpose in terms of functionality, but also aesthetically. A traditional shave is a great, soothing experience and this stand contributes to making your shave as enjoyable as possible. The chrome plating matches my Murker razor almost exactly, and the weighted base gives the stand a sturdy, quality feel. No complaints whatsoever, I can't think of anything they could improve here.I decided it was time to see what the classic shave was all about... After a little research, I purchased Proraso Shaving Soap, a Merkur (long handled) safety razor, an Escali Badger brush, and a Perfecto chrome razor and brush stand. I didn't know what I had been missing, and I do not know why we have settled for the mediocre Gillette shave for so long. This is the ONLY way to shave.With regard to the Proraso shaving soap specifically, my experiences have been top notch. The sent reminds me of the barber shop; I would describe it almost as a combination of talcum powder and a mild soap. It froths up very well, and it has a numbing effect when lathered on the face. I shave with the cold water on (under which I repeatedly rinse my razor), and that numbing effect combined with the cold steel of the safety razor produces a very soothing and enjoyable shave. NOTE, however, it is recommended that you do NOT rinse your blade with cold water. You are supposed to rinse with warm water, as a cold blade can increase the chance of cutting yourself (I have yet to cut myself doing this, though).The Merkur (long handle) safety razor and Escali Badger brush both fit perfectly in their respective slots. I would highly recommend both of those products as well.I strongly believe that if the seller continues to provide this quality stand at its comparatively low price point, it will fair very well with this product.

This is a great stand. It’s sturdy. It works well with a multitude of brushes I own however their branded brush fits perfectly like a glove on the stand.The stand excels when used with a double edge, razor and the flared ends, keep the flat bottom of the double edge razor from slipping off. However it struggles with some cartridge shavers, such as the Gillette mach3 as when I was using that razor the slightest bump would cause it to turn sideways and slip off the stand. I do not see this as a failing of the stand itself as it will still work with a shaver like a mach3, you just have to be careful with it.That being said there are others stands with the reverse issue which has grooves to hold a Gillette or Schick cartridge shaver but allows a double edge shaver to slip off with the slightest pump. This particular stand is very secure for a double edge and just about any brush. The stand looks nice, the materials feel nice, and I expect it to last a long time.

The perfecto Deluxe Black Razor and Brush Stand was exactly what I was looking for. I just started double edge (DE) shaving about six months ago. I started with one of the all in one boxes that comes with a bowl, plastic stand, and a badger hair brush. The plastic stand worked, but was not what I was looking for and I did not like the design.The Perfecto Deluxe Black Razor and Brush Stand is a nice, sleek, simple stand. The stand was packaged in a black box and was pre-assembled. After reading some other reviews about it being unstable, loose, and slides around easily on the counter top, I did a thorough check of the stand.The stand was sturdy and all parts were screwed in tight. The bas is nicely weighted down and supports the brush and the long handled razor. The base also has a nice felt bottom that prevents it from sliding around. The color is a nice flat black that will go with any design in the bathroom and looks great leaving it out to display. All in all it is a very nice, sturdy stand.As of now, I have nothing negative to say about this stand. I will update if I found some substantial flaws. All in all, this is a great stand for the price. Simple, sleek, and sturdy and I highly recommend this stand if you are looking into getting started with DE shaving or just looking for an upgrade.

After looking around, I settled on this stand. When it arrived it was solid and looked great. However, I use a Gillette Mach 3 style razor, and the razor just slid right off the stand. There is no adjustment that you can make as with some more expensive stands, so be aware that your razor may not work with this stand. I had to return it. So, one star off for lack of adaptability to all razors.
