Good Points
Does exactly what it says on the tin - close clean shave in minutes. Blades do tend to last a lot longer than other brands.
Bad Points
Quite pricey.
General Comments
As most guys, I started out on Bic razors. I didn't really enjoy the time it took to shave with them, so from then I decided to buy an electric shaver, which lasted quite a long time until the blades wore out. So I thought I would go back to normal shavers again.
After a day of using a Bic again, I was terribly upset of the cuts it gave me on my face. So I decided to check out what was on the market, and I found the Wilkinson Sword Quattro. I used it for the first time, and it was brilliant. It got close up, and as advertised, it gave great results! The head is very flexible, and the blades do work with one clean stroke; maybe two if it's in the hard places.
I can't really comment on how good it is for a wet shave, because I haven't tried it, as I always use foam or gel with the shave. I also use it to shave the body hair, and it works great there also! One blade does go a long way, and it really does last a while.
I can't comment on how well it does against the other brands out there because I haven't tried, but for now I'll stick with the Quattro, because I haven't got any complaints as such. It is a bit pricey, but the blades do last, therefore it is great value for money!
