Is the Razor A2 or A3 worth the extra money then just the Razor A? This is for my 5 and 8 year old sons for fun on the sidewalk.

All I can say is that we have had both and my 9 year old loves the A3. Both are fine, but if you can afford the extra $$ go with the A3.

I am not sure of the exact differences but our boys wanted the wheelie bar above the back wheel. We also chose the more expensive one because we wanted the higher weight limit for it to last longer into their teens. Hope this helps!

I have used both. The hands down winner is the Panasonic. It's just more powerful. I get a better shave and it seems more waterproof.

Are you referring to the Titan Freestyle Pro? That scooter has larger wheels (125 mm) than the Razor Pro (98 mm), that may handle rough pavement better than the Razor. It also has a platform that extends past the rear wheel, for doing wheelies or just resting your free foot, if the main footboard isn't large enough. If you prefer Razor scooters the Razor A3 also uses 125 mm wheels and has a wheelie bar. However the A3 has a weight limit of only 143 pounds, so not so good for stunts or if you're rough on your equipment.

I've used the Derby, but I like the Astra way better. It's just a much smoother shave for me. YMMV of course. I have 2 small kids, and a place to put the used blades is always a concern. You can get a "Blade Safe" for about $5 on Amazon. I know Feather makes one. All it is, is a small plastic box that cannot be opened. It has a slit in the top to put your used blades. It holds a couple hundred blades. After it's full, chuck it in your recycle container, and you're done.

I don't know what a razor is but my 7 year old grand daughter loves it. The handle adjust so it can grow with her? Would get it again in a minute!

As others pointed out the only difference is the handle. I have not found the smooth handle to be a problem; in fact it is in my rotation this week. If you are concerned this might be a problem then get one of the models that does not have the smooth handle. The DE 89 series is a great razor.

It definitely looks like a big kid toy. My four year old has no problem keeping up with his two older brothers and the older ones even like riding it from time to time. Also, I think it's held up better than the Razors my older ones have. the one thing that broke on it they were great about sending me a replacement part and extra strong glue, no questions and no charge. If you do get him one, I would recommend getting him a maxi and not the mini.

My 7 year old boy rides it just fine... and my 13 year old son has also puttered around on it. The 7 year old actually prefers it over his Razor scooter (to our surprise!). Be aware, though - the handle bars are a SET height - no raising or lowering like you can on the Razor.

Unless you are a collector, only buy the Feather. If I had bought it first instead of last, I could have used it by itself and avoided all the other razors. The biggest mistakes were the Muhle 41 and the Ikon DLC slant. There is nothing like the Feather, except possibly the Pils.

I'd say at least 2, maybe more depending on how coarse your facial hair is. For the price and quantity you'll come out ahead of any multi-blade razor on the market. With some practice it even shaves closer and better than the multi-blades too.

I just saw the matrix 3 razor at the Dollar General store # 11260, carried as a DG product. Less than $5.00 for razor and 5 blades.

I started using one in October 2014. It's February 2016, and I'm getting ready to switch to the second one. Like any razor, these will be super smooth at first, then go through a break-in period after a week or so. If you can put up with being careful with it for a couple of weeks, it becomes smooth again. More pressure required than a new blade, but you won't cut yourself like when it was three weeks old. I generally get 12 to 24 months out of one. Saves lots of money.

My son is 8 and it perfect for our bumpy backyard . Easy to handle like the regular razor. Bar does not telescope up or fold down, I see that as a plus , less to break

I have this razor as well as a Gillette Fatboy. This razor is quite a bit milder than the Fatboy, even with the Fatboy set to "1". I really enjoy my Parker, and feel its at least as good as my Fatboy. Its also a mild razor, so it'll give you the option of re-learning this method of shaving, and then purchasing a vintage when you get back into the groove. :-)

After riding a friend's wood razor, my daughter much preferred the wood because it had a little more give and didn't burn the bottom of her feet. Her friend has had her wood razor for over a year, and uses it daily. No stunts, though, so I'm not sure about the wear and tear for that.... But I suggest the wood platform for comfort. Also, the bigger wheels on this make it a more comfortable ride on a bumpier surface.

It's kind of late, but I'll answer this question anyways. Wow your girl is tall! Since she is so tall, the Razor Pro model would be best for durability. It also has a taller handlebar, so she has more room to grow. If she ever grows to over 140 pounds, the lower razor models will probably break apart. If you think she will only be riding for a short time, a lower model will be fine (A1, A2, and A3 models).

I can't tell you which is the best as I haven't tried them all. I'm on my second NORELCO Speed razor in 20 years. I do know that it shaves great, you can go about a month without recharging, and it lasts damn near forever. Can't go wrong buying this razor.
