I share your experience.  I had one, sold it, then saw another for a great price and got it again.  I later sold it.

Oh my God! I am awaiting a PILS purchased new on the manufacturer website. Reading to your posts makes me feelHuh

This razor is quite controversial: you hate it or love it. Keep it or sold it rather quickly.

I didn't buy my PILS for the look (it looks like a tank, it probably is too heavy) but for the blade design (flat) that I was very curious to test.  But I am expecting a miracle since my tastes are sometimes at the very opposite of other wet shavers. Nothing arrogant here. I fully respect and take into account others' choices, opinions and tastes. For instance, Feather ASD2 is nice but I don't like it that much. ATT is fine (I own a Kronos M2) but I don't find it cutting edge. I may be schizophrenic. Or maybe I like atypical razors with singular personality (I love the Mongoose).

Ultimately, PILS may confirm that curiosity kills the cat. At the cost of 200 euros! I should have spent these 200 euros with a psychotherapist to put me back on the right track Sleepy
I had a Pils last year and HATED it. I tried feathers, polsilver si, and astra sp before finally selling it. I hated to sell it because I tried SO hard to like it, especially at that price point!

Fast forward to March 2016...I bought another one on a whim. I changed my angle to be much more shallow and put in a Voskhod. WHAT. A. DIFFERENCE. It's now moved to my #1 ahead of my oneblade and even Tradere SB. Don't get discouraged because it doesn't work for others. Give it a chance, if it performs half as well for you as it does for me you'll be happy.

Would it be fair TSEvangelist to say, at this time, the ATT SE Bamboo is in your "top 5 money is no object" razors?
I swore I wasn't going to enter the SE world, but I may have to pre-order this one!
