[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great razor. The 5 micro thin blades pivot up and down and side to side. They match the contour of my face to get every bit of stubble, but never cut my skin. The lubricating strip also helps keep things close and smooth. I had grown a nice winter beard over the last 4 months and this razor did a great job of cleaning up after the clippers. I have very sensitive skin and my neck especially so, but this razor got every hair and did not leave me with any cuts or raw spots. Since it pivots both ways, it cuts closer and you do not have to go back over the same spot to get every inch. This gets it in one pass.

Before trying this product, I would refrain from using razors. My neck would get irritated and bumpy within minutes after shaving so I have always used an electric shaver. This razor was very smooth and moved flawlessly throughout my neck and was the smoothest shave that I have ever had. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone looking for that real, close, and comfortable shave!

I typically shave with an electric razor but often use disposable razors to get those places my razor missed. On a recent road trip however, I decided to take nothing but the Gillete Fusion Proglide and some shaving cream. I thought I would miss my electric razor but thoroughly enjoyed the closeness of the shave with Gillette Fusion Proglide and loved how smooth my skin was afterward. In fact, I didn't even have to use aftershave lotion which is never the case when I shave with my electric razor. I thought for sure the manual shave would take longer than the electric and even woke up a few minutes early the first day of the trip to allow more time for shaving. However, I was pleasantly surprised that it took about the same time as an electric shave but when subtracting the time for cleaning up places the electric razor missed and not having to put on after shave, I think I actually saved time! I was so impressed with the razor, I mentioned my delightful shaving experience with the Gillette Fusion Proglide to the four co-workers I was traveling with. One already owned the Gillette Fusion razor and was also impressed with the performance. The other three heard so much about my shaving experience from the hotel to the office that they couldn't beleive a shaving experience could deserve so much discussion! Hopefully their curiosity will inspire them to purchase one!

While the emphasis here is on the pivoting Flexball, and how it conforms to the curves of your features, this is not the end to what this new razor has to offer. I was given this by Gillete to try out and here's my take: - First of all, yes, it has the Flexball, pivoting the razor this way and that to follow the contours of your face. Much like a Dyson vacuum handle can be moved seemingly any which way and still stay flat on the floor. - Secondly, thinner blades, enabling a closer and smoother shave. Why the promos on this blade are not touting this more I'll never know. But the blades do make the shave! - Thirdly, flip the razor around and you have a precision blade to reach those harder places (think right under your nose) where the multiple-blades can't fit in. How many razors that aren't electric have a precision shaver? - Fourth, you seen them before, but it has a calming lubricating strip as well. What more could a guy want (or a borrowing lady friend)? Smooth and precise shave, advanced technology, and a lubricating strip.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love this razor. It's amazingly light and gets a close cut. Making my skin feel as smooth as a baby butt. I have been using this all week and the blades have held up strong. Super close cut every time. Little or no iritation. I hsve found my new favorite razor of all times. My wife is dying to try it out as well.the coupon will help with the price of the razors but they are worth every penny.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This razor is awesome. It's very gives me a super close shave with only one stroke. I've generally got a pretty good shadow going by evening, but my face is still smooth now (and it's after 9 p.m.!)

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I finally got a chance to use the Fusion ProGlide manual razor with FlexBall Technology the other day after having it sit in my bathroom for a few days awaiting the time when my patchy facial hair would be long enough for a good test shave. My first thoughts about this razor was that it was actually pretty heavy compared to the other manual razors I have used before, even compared to the powered version of the ProGlide. I applied some Gillette Active Sport Shave Gel (will review that later), and started shaving. The blades still pulled at my "mustache" hair but most every manual razor does that anyway when it gets a little longer. The rest of the hair was cut down to size in a few swipes in different directions. The razor was smooth feeling and didn't nik or cut me in anyway. While I was shaving I was trying to figure out if the FlexBall was actually doing anything. Unfortunately, I still can't tell you if it helped or just sat there. The shave didn't feel any different than the Gillette Fusion ProGlide powered or normal razor without the FlexBall. This makes me thing the FlexBall is more of a gimmick than anything. It may have contoured a little bit better when making the shave strokes, but not enough to impress me and make me want to pay full price for the razor. Overall, it was a decent shave but I don't think I will be buy replacement blades for this and just stick with my lighter weight manual razors.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Fusion ProGlide manual razor with FlexBall Technology is the best razor that I have tried. This razor is great because of the FlexBall Technology which allows me to shave around my face with ease of knowing that the razor will just curve to my face no matter which way I shave. The 5 blades also allow for a very close shave to the skin. The finest blades allow for me to shave with minimal tug and pull on my face. The trimmer also allows for close and accurate edging around the face.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a terrific razor and is now going to be my new go to- esp. because I have a bald head! I use it for my head and for my face and it still has a great shave/blade. Will spread the word to my other bald friends!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The fact i can have a smooth shave whether im in a rush or not is great. I enjoy the fact this razor provides the grip i need. It is slick. I wouldn't look so good or have such a close shave without this product.
