Tried my 37c today for the first time. Not the best shave but I can see why it's so efficient. I'll get better with practice. I can see it being used with a day or more growth in between. I'll stick to my EJ for every day shaving. But I know I'll eventually break in my 37c. Any advice is welcomed.

Got one in the mail the other day, I only had 24hrs growth but just had to try it, so put in a 7 o'clock yellow (first use of these blades too) wasn't that impressed with the shave, so left it for another 3 days and tried again with a good growth this time and switched to an Astra blade. Second shave was much better, with just a 2 pass shave it was extremely close on my cheeks and everywhere else was excellent.
It was hard to get those little bits under the nostrils due to the slant/size of the razor head.
It is a very efficient razor, with a couple or more days growth, just use it like any other razor, no pressure and keep the 25 - 30 degree angle.

Try a Polsilver in it!
Give it some more time and if it doesn't improve, let it go. i have never gotten on with any Slant.
However, i have heard some very good things about the new Ikon Slant from a few good friend who say it is a completely different shave to the other slants. Take that with a grain of salt, until you try one.
