I’ve now spent two weeks using the Hot Lather Machine and Pods. Very satisfied. Closest shaves I’ve ever had. I use a Gillette Fusion razor, the one that vibrates. I have varied the approach slightly. After applying the soap to my face, I apply some more directly to a heated badger bristle brush and reapply the new hot soap over the soap already there. I have a very tough beard. I actually enjoy shaving and don’t mind that it takes a little extra time. A little post-shave moisturizer and I’m set. The thinness of the soap versus Foamy took a little bit of adjustment.

I really like this hot lather machine. The lather provides a vert smooth shave. It is much more slick than gels and creams. I think it could stand to be a bit warmer but it is just fine as is now.

I’m a barber and have been using this in the shop! Love that the machine is sleek and cordless - doesn’t take much room on my work station and fits the shop aesthetic.

Love the shaving liquid pods, so I don’t have to hand mix the shaving cream or run cleaning liquid thru it like you do for the standard lather machines.

Lastly I love that you don’t need the machine to be turned on all day with a 90 second heat up time. And I always know it’s not going to be too hot or too cold.

Well constructed sleek desing great product with excellent customer support.

Great product in every way.
