Not OEM, but works well enough for me
I purchased these 13 months ago and recently began using the second set of heads. I followed the instructions when I got these for both sets of heads, then used one set for 13 months before they needed to be replaced. I don't believe that they are quite OEM quality, but I really haven't had anything to complain about. Even with the OEM heads, I would have hair pulled on occasion, so I think that these are close enough for me. I plan on ordering more in the future to have on hand when I need to replace the heads again.I should probably mention that I also use another product with this on occasion: Williams Lecric Shave [ https://www.amazon.com/Williams-Lectric-Shave-7-Ounce/dp/B0013NB7DW/ref=sr_1_1?crid=31RF5QEAHPZKX&keywords=williams+lectric+shave&qid=1570289416&sprefix=williams+lect%2Caps%2C272&sr=8-1 ]This seems to make the shaving heads work much better for me.

Cheap, but not worth the price
I really appreciated the good communication from the seller before and after receiving this product - they thanked me for my order and gave me detailed directions on how and why to the replacement heads required lubrication prior to use and how to install them into my shaver. The price was much lower than the OEM replacement heads and these look well made and almost indistinguishable from the originals (well, except for the dragon design on the head itself. I had no problem replacing my year-old worn out shaver heads with this product, and oiling them only took a few seconds.Unfortunately, that's the end of my positive experience with this product. My first shave with the new heads was very rough...much rougher than I recall when the shaver was new with the original heads. I remember the original instructions said to use the shaver exclusively for a few weeks and over time both the roughness to the skin, and the closeness of the shave, would improve. I followed that same advice with these replacement heads, and used them exclusively for just over 2 months now and if anything the results have gotten worse over that time.My face feels like it's being scrapped with sandpaper, frequently the hairs around my mustache feel like they're being pulled out rather than cut, and by the time I quit because my face can't take any more scrapping, I run my hand along my jawline and down my adam's apple and it is still very rough with stubble.I think it's time to give up on this product and pony up for the more expensive, OEM replacement heads.

The blades fit but not the same.
Definitely not like original blades. They only trim a third of what the original blades do.

Silver Dragon Shave SH71 Replacement Heads
Heads did not fit the razor rattled when i installed. I used the previous heads and the new blades and it took care of the rattle. The blades don't work like new ones.

These heads do not shave anywhere as close as the Philips heads
These replacements do not shave close as the Philips heads

Rips your neck
First of all, replacing these are very difficult to do. When you finally get them in they will rip your neck, pulling hairs NOT cutting them. They can work carefully on your face but stay away from your neck. Buy some throw aways for that.

grab and pull, not shave
It says to put a drop of oil on the blades and let them run for a min.. did that and tried to shave after cleaning the blades and it did more pull of my beard that cutting... worse shaver blades i've ever bought.. never again.

You Get What You Pay For
I'm not sure these are any better than the ones I had in the razor that I had been using for a year. I installed them according to the directions and lubricated them before I used them but you have to go over a spot numerous times to get a relatively close shave. They are not as sharp as they should be.
