Must the shaving cream be shaken first? If so, isn't that clumsy, once the can is in the dispenser?

it is easy, just grip both canister and top, then shake, I do it every 2nd shave as it will settle over time.

The instructions do NOT mention having to do that. My husband was VERY disappointed in the product & has stopped using it altogether!

It does not have to be shaken, but you could if you want to. It is not that clumsy either.

Tim, I think it's same product just different way to dispense. The can works well to clean lubricate and cool the blades

I would say no because this model isn't "wet&dry;". Wet&dry; means you can use the shaver with gel or foam cream

I dip the brush directly in, the soap is pretty solid in the container. One container lasts me nearly a year (shaving every other day).

No, you never shake the bottle. It is supposed to be like this. You dip the swab through the clearer liquid into the pink, pull it out and apply.

That's the only downside. It doesn't slosh or anything. Ive actually switched over now and started using the Barbasol Shaving Cream safe now.... WAY sturdier and is more convincing.

For me it isn't. Honestly, I just place some dish detergent in, close the top, and Shake Shake shake!! Lol

Yes you have to shake it. It's very light. It's not stainless steel. It's aluminum.

Yes, the directions suggest a disassembly of the razor after each shave. It prolongs the life of the blade and ensures that fine hair and shave cream residue doesn't reduce effectiveness at next shave. These don't "tap and rinse" as a modern disposable razor. With that said, it's a ten second routine to tear-down, rinse, and sit out to dry the assembly. I find the close shave and cost benefits far outway any negatives. Hope this helps.

This is not a problem that I have experienced and I have very oily skin. I use shaving cream each time I shave since it gives a closer shave and feels better than shaving dry. I clean the shaver under the hot water faucet after each shave. The foil and blades are still like new with no residue or other sign of any kind of buildup.

It's not a hard puck and it's not soft like cream out of a can. Use a good brush and you will lather up very well.

Would image your cream was still a little cool. Keep shaking. I use this in power outages or small batches of unsalted. Running bigger batches, I use the food processor

Yes, it must be the cup warmer.. (Come on Amazon, lol.) If the barber was doing it, he probably does it regularly, so it probably works okay. It wouldn't explode or anything, because there is an opening where the pressure would release. I think if it heated up too much the shaving cream would start coming out slowly, so then you could just take it off the heat. And it doesn't get hot enough to burn it. No reason not to try it out. :) But yes, it would probably take a long time.

Sure, the base is weighted. I would see no problem. Using old school shaving soap in a cup and a brush will get you a better shave. Consider trying it. Remember HOT water.

You have to push on the lid for the duration of shaving. Safety feature I think. Device is nice and small and holding top where you push helps keep it from slipping. Great product. Easy for snow cones and margaritas :-)

According to the literature that came with my razor, one may use shaving cream or not, whichever you prefer.&#9786;

I haven't had that problem. Have you tried shaking the contents first before spraying?
