Personally, a DE shave is superior to any cartridge shave I have had in the past. The mere cost of cartridges for myself is cost prohibitive.
Traditional wet shaving is such a joy each morning.

you can still buy Trac carts (Gillette and non-Gillettes) in many drugstores, and even some supermarkets.. I realized that cartidges became scarce or unavailable for older ones in stores, so I got off that train. I just prefer the fun and history of SE & DE shaving.
Distribution must be much better where you live. In my area only Gillette Mach 3, Fusion and Schick Hydro 5 along with store brands are available in stores. Older Schicks and Gillettes are gone.you can still buy Trac carts (Gillette and non-Gillettes) in many drugstores, and even some supermarkets.
Handles is a different story, but carts are widely available and (non-Gillette) cheap.
Try the Hydro because it is better than the Quattro. The Hydro is easier to maintain because of the wider gap between the blades. Lasts longer, feels better on my face, and also shaves closer
Been using the same Sensor for over 30 yrs. It performs better than my DE's, unless I have a full 25 or more minutes to do a proper shave.
I can use the Sensor with my eyes closed, the DE takes more concentration and skill.
