Cons

Con
Fitting new blades can be cumbersome

It has a two-piece design whereby the baseplate is permanently affixed to the handle. It has two notches to place your blade on, but the blade can easily come off as you screw the head on top. It is not uncommon for blades to fall out when switching them.

Con
Lacks weight, requiring more care when shaving

New wetshavers are recommended to use the weight of the razor to cut. Unfortunately, the Dorco PL-602 has next to no weight so you will have to carefully apply a small amount of pressure.
