I’ve used a purple pillow harmony for a year now, and it has worked very well for me. I’m a side sleeper of a slightly larger than avg build (5’11”, 225 lbs) and the pillow does a great job at contouring to my neck/shoulders. I have less headaches from using this pillow and got my father in law hooked in them as well. I will say that the difference can be hard to notice until your first day without it though.

I've got a slant from Maggard Razors for a particularly aggressive shave. I think most Stainless safety razors are BIFL and can't imagine going back to disposables or electric.

I have a simple safety razor like this. Pretty nice it was $200. But I have saved 100s in razor blade purchases. I usually buy a pack of 100 safety razors at about $12. I shave every day and that one pack usually has me covered for a year.

Edit: typo

Yes, a generous return policy is a must with pillows.

My neighbor has one. Not sure if bilf but definitely weak and doesn’t throw well.

I had one of these! My ex wife made me get rid of it :(

Some lucky soul found it at goodwill and is using it to this day I bet

Only buy with a car fax from a non rust belt state

Damn this is a throwback this is the one I used as a kid!

Used the original Gillette Sensor razor from 1991-2021 when the tongs wore out and couldn't hold the cartridge anymore. Switched to my grandfathers early 60's adjustable Slim Gillette razor I had for 20 years (he died in 2001) and haven't looked back. The blades are insanely cheap.

I make my own all natural shaving cream. No need for anything else.

Does anyone have a more recent recommendation of a bedside alarm clock they have that has held up well? I'm thinking about getting one for my dad for Christmas as his clock that he's had since the 70s finally died.

Tilley makes some good winter hats, otherwise stormy kromer is good too.

Pipe Insulation band for the strap? 😂

That's before (they) decided having everything break in short order is profitable

Yep, I’ve been doing it since 2006, though I definitely dialed back the GAS after the first few years. Decided to grow a full beard this past January, so I don’t even need to shave now

Mine is still working. I have a brown one

I have the exact same one! Been going strong for at least 35 years too!

This is an ad

I have another version of these types of razors and sadly, I hate them, went back to my regular razor. :( I found this type to be terrible for bikini line etc.

I got the Sony Dream Machine in cube shape that run like the first day I brought it home

First time I heard "blue (dub a dee)" was on my dream machine radio alarm clock lol

Personally I would skip the molded one. Can you return a pillow to those sellers if it doesn't seem right for you? I know you can on Amazon, for free.

My guess is this thing is going to outlive you.

The 316L denotes the specific kind of stainless steel used. 316L has molybdenum in it and has enhanced resistance to corrosion from chloride and acids (very important when many municipalities add chlorine to the water during treatment).

The most common stainless steel finish, 304, isn't as long-lasting as 316 and hence why you still see rust on stainless steel over time. All stainless steel isn't created the same.

ETA: The type of steel can also go towards explaining the high cost of this razor too, as the increased nickel and molybdenum content makes 316 steel 40% more expensive than plain old 304 steel.

Thank you.

Presently, I am considering these four options:

Brooklyn Bedding Talalay Latex Pillow

SIJO Cloudsupport Pilow

Avocado Molded Latex Pillow

Turmerry Organic Latex Pillow

Also fairly easy to find Gillette razors from the 1st 7 decades of the 20th century they too will last multiple lifetimes (many already have) shave just as well as anything manufactured today that is readily available for pennies on (regardless of price point $40 or $400) the dollar. Also made in the USA, or for some of the prettiest razors known to man, Made in England. Most everything today is just a copycat of Gillette's offerings in the 1900's. disguised as a modern marvel
