I've been a loyal Gillette customer for over three decades. I started with their basic razors Sensor when I first began shaving, moved to the Mach 3 then Fusion when it launched, and have been happily stocking up on Proglide Proshield for years. These were solid, reliable products that did exactly what they were supposed to do: deliver a close, comfortable shave. Then came GilletteLabs with the "exfoliating bar," and I'm beyond disappointed. This product perfectly represents what's wrong with Gillette's current direction. Instead of focusing on what made them great—making exceptional razors that simply work—they're pushing unnecessary gimmicks that nobody asked for. I've been getting perfectly smooth shaves for 30 years without needing my razor to exfoliate for me. Let's be clear: this razor costs more than the Proglide Proshield, yet it performs worse. The shave isn't as close, the cartridges probably will not last as long, and the exfoliating bar feels like a marketing gimmick that adds bulk without adding value. It's painfully obvious this "innovation" exists primarily to justify a higher price point, not to improve the shaving experience. I can't help but suspect these products are designed by executives and consultants who probably don't even shave regularly themselves. If they did, they'd know that what customers want is simple: sharp blades, good lubrication, a comfortable handle, and a reasonable price. We don't need "heated razors," "exfoliating bars," or whatever gimmick comes next. For over a century, Gillette built its reputation on one thing: making the best shaving razors in the world. The Proglide Proshield was proof that they still knew how to do that. Why abandon what works? Why not invest in making those proven products better and more affordable instead of chasing gimmicks? I genuinely hope Gillette returns to its roots. Until then, I'll be sticking with my stockpile of Proshield cartridges and seriously considering whether my next purchase will be from a competitor who still understands that sometimes the best innovation is perfecting the basics.

I have been shaving for 55 yrs plus. I have always used a Gillette razor and blade . This year I decided to try Harry’s cheap looked good on the site and promised a great shave. It was a huge waste of money. I used ye blade that came in the razor and I had 2 nicked places when I finished. I thought maybe try he blade was just a demo blade do I took it off and tried a new blade. I got 4 nicked places that time and some places I had to reshave . Next shave I went for my Gillette labs which the blade was a month old and shaved . No nicks and a smooth shave. The Harry’s was their new improved design . I will never fall for the Harry’s or Dollar Shave Club again . I am proud to say your product may be a little high on price but it’s worth every cent. I am a true fan and will be forever

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Smooth and great shave. I love the price point as well. I love the design and fit in my hand. It is something I didn't even know I was missing now I won't use anything else.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My boyfriend loves this. It shaves clean and pretty close. It feels clean. Its durable and a bit heavy on the grip. Doesn't make noises! The stand it adorable!

Was very sceptical at first, but it is the best shave I have ever had. I cant beleive how close and smooth it left, i cant feel any stubble after. I hope it works for everyone else this well

I have had the sensor and the Mach3 and this Labs razor comes in third. The handle is heavy and clumsy and although the blades last they do not give the close smooth shave the Mach3 gives. I would love to trade it back for some Mach3 blades.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is such an amazing razor! I love th packaging, the material feels resistant and durable and it does the job very well. Not sure if it really exfoliates my skin but it’s amazing regardless

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The packaging was very good. The razor felt good ony hand while shaving. Blades were very sharp. I would possibly purchase this item in the future. Not sure of the value because I didn't purchase this item.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Honestly one of the best shaves I’ve ever had. I get really bad razor burn normally and this I couldn’t even tell was running across my skin. This razor being fully metal makes me feel like it going to last a lifetime too, I love that it has a fancy little stand too! So when I’m done shaving it can dry out and not stick to the counter or something. Well worth it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Gillette razor slices away everything but my skin! No razor bumps or nicks with this thing. And it exfoliates as it goes which is another plus! Incredible razor that I can now add to my Gillette collection.... I may have a problem 😅
