I was given this razor to try by Gillette and although it does have a very close shave, it was harder for me to use seeing that I have a smaller face. I found it difficult maneuvering in the tight spots on my face. Even though it shaves very well, I am forced to use another brand based on size.

The Gillette Fusion Proglide razor does live up to a long line of upgrades and still remains a superior razor to its competition. When used vs. the Mach 3, a very similar close shave is attained. The 5 blades are very smooth, but also seem to wear out much faster and are extremely expensive to replace. It seems the better value would not buy the blades, but continue to find coupons and just buy the razor and use the blades that are included in the package. However when compared with other brands, the Gillette family of razors still dominate for comfort, quality and smoothness of the shave. It's really hard to find a competitor that's even close. It's clear P&G understand what they are doing. Overall, the Fusion Proglide is consistent, smooth, and everything that you'd expect from a Gillette razor.

Gillette has been making razors for over 100 years. I have been using their products for over 15 years. I started shaving with an electric. I hated it. I then started to use the disposable razors. Again ? I hated it. I then found the Mach III by Gillette. What an amazing feat! It was perfect, so I thought. Every year or so, Gillette would come out with a new blade. I always thought, wow ? it cannot be as good as the one I am using. However ? every year, they prove me wrong. Gillette?s most recent Fusion Proglide is by far, the best razor I have ever used. I was not a fan of the vibrating handle, so I was skeptical of this campaign. Would I like a handle that bends or flexes while I shave? Would it bend too much? First, I took the product out of the packaging. It felt great. The Flexball handle was very solid. It didn?t flex too much. I moved it side to side, it was just enough, or so I thought. Today was the 3rd day I went without shaving. I really wanted to push this razor to the test. At first, I shaved my neck that is where I always start. It curved, perfectly. No longer did the razor pull. It actually corrected where I pulled a bit too much. Next, I went to the cheeks, it did great. It went right around my chin perfectly, curving as needed. It flexed just enough, perfectly. Even when edging my side burns, it didn?t flex to the point where it messed up my edges. Overall, I would highly recommend using this handle, and replacing the handle you have. If you have never used Gillette?s premier blade, this is an obvious pick. I wasn?t a fan of the powered handle, but I am definitely a fan of the flexball handle!

I used the Gillette Fusion Proglide to shave my face and my head. It was a really good shave. It gave me a really close shave on my face and neck. But where the razor really shined was when I used to to shave my head. The flex ball really did a great job on my head. I would definitely recommend this razor depending on how expensive the refills are.

Gillette sent me a razor to review in late April and I got around to using it in early May. I have to say it was very a very comfortable shave. I used this with their Styler and was very happy with the results. What I was most impressed with was that the Razor pivots smoothly to fit the contours of your face. Because of that particular reason alone is why I would consider this one of the best razors I've ever used. I considered giving this Razor just a "4/5", however the price brought me up that extra star. The quality of this razor surpasses the price of it anyday.

Loved it. The first time I used the cartridge my beard was about a half inch. I figure it would just plug the razer, but it didn't. The blades are spaced perfectly so they don't plug up. I have already used three times which I have never done with any other razer in the past.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using Gillette for years but hadn't tried the proglide until i got the bzz campaign. All i can say is wow this is a amazing razor. I line my facial hair along the jawline and the little ball really makes it easy. If you detail your facial hair this is definitely the way to go i would recommend to anyone that wants a smooth comfortable shave.

Thanks to Bzzagent and Gillette, I was able to try this awesome razor for free. I shave my head regularly and this razor did the job flawlessly. The pivot ball near the head made the strokes much smoother on a curved surface. The blades didn't tug on my thicker beard hair either, which was nice. I would recomend this razor to anyone! This razor has replaced my previous ones for sure!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used the Gillette fusion pro glide in the past and was very interested in how the flex ball would add to the already close shave that Proglide offers. I was not disappointed. Gillette offers a close shave but the problem areas were always the chin. I would have to shave in different directions to get a close shave. With the new flexball on the Gillette fusion proglide it was easier and took less time to get a really close shave especially on my chin. This is definitely the way to go when you want really smooth skin that lasts all day without taking up too much time.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm always excited when I get a new razor or new razor heads because I know I can get a close shave. I use an electric razor for my face but I like to groom my chest with a razor and unlike an electric, when the blades get dull it doesn't cause as much irritation as a blade against your skin. I received the Gillette Fusion Proglide Razor with the Flexball Handle from the company itself and I really liked the way it felt on my skin. The Flexball seemed to move over my skin and not just against it, I could really tell the difference when my wife said it was a smooth shave. I recommend this product not becase it was a new razor but because of the Flexball technology, it helped to give me a better shave and didn't cause me to shave again for a few more days.
