I bought this because it was advertised as compatible with the Gillette Atra, and I had been shaving with the Dorco Comfort Thin II razors, which were discontinued (ugh, such betrayal, I hate Dorco for discontinuing these) and those were advertised as Atra-compatible. I wanted a new shaving system that was cheap, high-quality, and used only 2-blade cartridges.This handle took a little getting used to, but once I got accustomed to it I absolutely love it. The angle is just right for allowing me to hold the handle slightly away from my face, which I found is ideal. It is somewhat different from Dorco's handle (which you need to hold closer to your face) and Gillette handles (which are perhaps somewhat in-between.) When I first started using it I had to overcome my muscle memory of the old angle I had been holding it at, and figure out the best one for this one, but in the end the way this handle works is much more comfortable. I think it is a better-designed product. I got a few small cuts during the adjustment period, but have been shaving for days without even a tiny nick now that I've figured it out. It took me less than 2 weeks to get used to this new handle.I have been using this with the Personna Twin Pivot Plus Cartridges, and they fit perfectly. I highly recommend them and recommend the combination of those cartridges with this handle. They pivot well, there is a good range of pivoting. Interestingly, this handle doesn't fit the Dorco cartridges, but that's okay, I only had a few of them left and I am moving away from that shaving system anyway.This handle feels well-made and solid. There is an anti-slip grip and it's easy to hold, and it's easy to clean. Time will tell how it holds up, but so far I am impressed. I have been using it for about a month. The combination of this handle and the Personna blades are gonna save me a ton of money in the long-run. I have been very happy with the quality of the shaves I've been getting, which is a testimony both to the handle and the blades.Highly recommended!
