I was selected to give the new Gillette Proglide Manual razor with the flexball technology a try and boy could I tell a difference from regular razors. To start with the razor just looked different from all other razors. Then when I used it for the first time, I could really tell there was a difference. It truly only takes one stroke with the razor to shave your skin of those pesky whiskers. I received a very close shave with only one pass on my face, along with shaving my head also. I don't know how many shaves you can get with one cartridge but I'm sure you will be pleased with the results.

after trying the Gillette fusion proglide razor...one of the things I can say is where have you been all my life..its the best I have ever used..i really love the way the flexball ..it just glides over your face...this is the best yet ...keep it up gillette

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Still using the razor since the beginning of this campaign. The best razor I've ever used and I plan on buying refills so I can keep using it. I recommend it to anyone who wants a clean smooth close shave. 5star!!!!!

I got the new Gillette fusion proglide from a program ran by Gillette. This is one of the best manual razors I've ever used. I would recommend this to anyone wanting a soft smooth shave. The new advanced.and thinner blades makes manual shaving pain free. This razor is awesome!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using Gillette razors for over 20 tears. The mach 3 has been a great friend during those years. I feel it has done a more than admirable job chopping all those beard stubble down. Know Gillette introduces a sleeker and tighter razor to do the job. It works and works faster so you don;t have to worry bout a 5 o'clock shadow. Great product. Recommended.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I find the Fusion PrGlide razor to provide a very close shave. The single detailing or edging blade comes in handy when cleaning up the goatee or sideburns. Downside is the indicator lubricator strip wears out before the blade is dull.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] razor was provided via a program run by Gillette great handle hold great in your hand very good grip no fear of slipping and cutting yourself very nice. easy to replace the blades thank you for making the shaving experience great will us this razor in the future for all my shaving needs

I have been using Gillette razors for many years now and have been satisfied with the closeness of the shave. But because of age and contours of shaving my bald head I found it was not giving me the shave I wanted for my scalp. I began using your women's razor which gave me the closeness of the contoured shave I needed. I am happy to say that with the new flexball technology, it now gives me the closeness I need to shave my head and my face. Welcome back and thanks! Gillette, the best shave a man can get!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The roller ball function allows for a shave that’s nothing less than stellar. Usually, I am a fan of The Art of Shaving, but Gillette’s new blade definitely has made me a fan. There are two aspects I like about this blade: 1) the detailer blade at the top is PERFECT for trimming side burns, the area under your nose, or even reshaping the 5 o'clock shadow to accentuate your jawline and 2) the roller ball function allows the blade to easily glide around the contours of your round/square face. The ONLY thing preventing from rating it a 5 start is the shaving cream. The cream in itself is great, however, it tends to leak just a little bit of the gel right after you use it. However, if the gel isn't the important, then just go with the blade as it’s a perfect 5.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's easy to make jokes about Gillette's evolving product line: every few years the company adds another blade (or two) to their cartridge and changes the color of their razor handle. Jokes aside, however, each previous product (the Sensor Excel, the Mach 3, and the Fusion / Fusion Proglide) has marked a major leap forward in the shaving experience. Every time I've gone back and used a Mach 3, in fact, I've been struck by just how big a difference there is between that product and the far superior 5-blade Fusion (or its slightly-improved successor the Fusion Proglide). Given that experience, I was excited to try the Fusion Proglide with Flexball Handle, which features a hinge on the handle, supplementing the range of motion provided by the hinge on the cartridge itself (the hinge on the handle swivels left-to-right, while the hinge on the cartridge swivels forward-and-back). Unfortunately, the new handle did little to improve the shaving experience. Yes, the additional hinge does help keep the blades parallel to the shaver’s skin – but it doesn’t make nearly as great a difference as the hinge on the cartridge (which was one of the Mach 3’s novel features). The cartridge itself, meanwhile – which, after all, is the key to the shaving experience – remains basically unchanged. That’s not a problem: the Fusion Proglide cartridge is exceptional. But the value-add for the new handle is minimal. If you’ve already got a Fusion / Fusion proglide handle without the Flexball swivel, don’t bother buying this new product. That said, if you do *not* own a Fusion handle and you’re looking to buy one, the Flexball Handle does represent a marginal improvement on the old product.
