[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Both the handle and the dock for this razor are made of a very solid, hefty metal. They do not feel cheap at all. The handle has a nice anti-slip texture where you would place your fingers and the razor head release is very positive. The 4 way pivoting head is a nice addition, moving forward to back and tilting from left to right. The 5 blades of the razor are clean and sharp, as I have come to expect from Gillette. Also included is the rear side detailing razor for the sideburns, etc. This is a feature that I think should be standard on all high end razors. I can't speak as to whether or not the exfoliating bar on the razor makes much of a difference for me. What I can say is that the overall feel and performance of this razor is that of high quality. This razor is definitely worth putting on your list and would be well received by a loved one.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m already a fan of Gillette shaving razors and been exploring each time they launch a new one. This is very beautiful razor that gives me a smooth shaving experience, the blades are designed very nicely and I didn’t suffer from any discomfort like after shave burn etc. Easy to clean.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am not one to shave my face with a razor, I really like the stubble look so mainly just use a trimmer with a small guard. I mainly got this razor to shave my neck area to keep everything clean. I did clean shave with this a few times to see how it did, it really has me thinking about staying with this look. It keeps my face feeling smooth all day and don’t get any ingrown hairs or shaving bumps afterwards. Would definitely recommend it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The handle feels great and the shave is nice and skin tight and I dont' feel it missed much. I didn't feel the exfoliating bar do much but I like the concept and I hope they keep improving. The stand is nice and i like have it somewhere instead of laying flat.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I expected this razor to be good because all of Gillette’s products are high quality but I have been very impressed with this razor. The exfoliating bar keeps me from breaking out as bad after my shave. I am a huge fan!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I found the Gillette Labs exfoliating razor to be very good with my more sensitive skin which is a relief when I'm in a hurry to get out in the morning. The stand makes it easy to grab and shave and provides a clean shave.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am someone who just shaves part of my neck and along the upper part of my stubble and this razor is great for that. It has a precise cut and the blades shave to the root of the hair. It is not harsh on the skin and glides perfectly.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This exfoliating bar razon is exactly what anyone who shaves their face needs! I love how my skin feels after the amazingly close shave this razor gives me! The exfoliating bar helps keep my skin feeling clean and smooth. These razors get a beautiful close shave.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This razor leaves my face feeling smooth like a baby's bottom. It cuts cleanly and safely. It came with a stand where I am able to set the razor down to keep my area clutter free. Over very pleased with this set.
