[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have always used women's razors because they seemed to have a better grip and sharper blades....that was; until I tried this razor. I shave in the shower and compared to my older razor; this cut my shave time literally in half. I have been converted!

I've been using Gillette Fusion5 blades for YEARS. They used to be the very best out there. The recent change to the plastic/rubber around the blades on the heads is terrible. It causes too much friction/drag, and prevents the blades from getting close enough to the skin for a close shave. This makes you use more pressure to get the blades closer, forces you to shave over the same spot over and over, and results in MORE cuts, not fewer. And you STILL don't have results as good as they used to be. Please go back to your old design or at least rethink the new one. I am searching for something new now after almost 20 years, because these are just plan unusable.

I bought the razor today (08/20) and was surprised at how great of a shake I got. I absolutely love this razor. I am a college student at UCF and will be buying these razors more often. I didn’t even feel the razor shave and left me super smooth, one of the best shaves I’ve ever experienced. I also bought the shave gel for the fusion 5 and absolutely loved the experience! But my only question is have long does the lubrication strip last before I have to replace the razor?

I was excited to get this free razor for testing. I use another Gillette razor (vibrating one), so I was curious to compare the two. I did not like the handle of this razor - it is slippery and very thin, not comfortable to grip in the hand. To sum it up, this razor is not as good as the other Gillette one that I use.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] All of my life, I've only purchased disposable razor blades. Whatever disposable razor pack brand is on sale at the moment, is what I pick up. The handle is sturdy and ergonomic, and fits comfortably in my hand. The weight of the razor is perfect, with just enough weight to it. The blade contours to the shape of your face, without having to put much pressure. The 5 blades give a very close shave, and I didn't even have to use any shaving cream. I was able to shave in the shower like I normally do and just used water. I really like how the top of the blade is left uncovered. This makes it so much easier to clean after use. Unlike all other razors I've used, you never have access to the top of the blade. The only thing I didn't like about the razor is I wish it came with a cover to put over the blade when not in use. I travel occasionally for business and a cover over the blade would be ideal. Also, the plastic holder it comes with is extremely bulky and won't fit in my small medicine cabinet. These are minor problems for me, as overall I really liked the Gillette Fusion razor. I will probably be saying "Bye Bye Disposables" from now on.

Purchased my first monthly set of 4 Fusion blades. Being in my 50s I've used every blade out there and Gillette is a good one but these trimmers in this batch flat out sucked! Hardly any edge on them and so far recessed into the top plastic that they are practically useless for trimming. I like that they produce these in New England with US labor but can you step up this trimmer so it functions better? Other brands work far better at this basic task.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I can't imagine a razor being any better than this. The first time I use it I notice how sharp the blades were. The contours of the handle make it for perfect grip. I definitely didn't plan on using the trimmer but once I use it I was impressed.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use disposable razor cartridges to shave both my head and face multiple times per week. This high frequency, Has made me hesitant to try the Gillette Fusion because the cartridge refills carry such a high price point. I recently received a Fusion razor with an additional cartridge and decided to give it a shot. The overall shaving experience with the Fusion was great. I was able to easily and comfortably give myself a close smooth shave on both my head and face. The cartridge head has just the right range of motion that it makes the entire experience easy, with little to no need to go back over the usually hard to reach spots. My hair is fairly coarse and initially the Fusion cartridge gave me one of the best shaves that I have ever received. I was able to shave my head twice and face three times over the course of five days with the same cartridge before needing to replace it. By that last shave, the medicated strip is pretty worn out and blades have dulled substantially. The Gillette Fusion is a great overall product that I plan to continue to use regularly. The cartridges are not cheap but they do deliver a great shave and they also last for a reasonable amount of time. This going to be my go to razor from here on out,

The Gillette Fusion blade used to be my blade of choice. I use them to shave my face and my bald head and I used to get 5-6 shaves out of a blade. Now, I only get 2-3 shaves before the Enhanced Indicator Lubrastrip is gone. Not sure if they changed up the quality of the lubricant or what, but since these blades are quite expensive, I no longer use them. I now buy the more expensive ProGlide blade and I am happier with them.

Do not buy blades they are not Gillette five fusion blades. I would have given it no stars but it wouldn’t let me write a review. No precision trimmer as advertised and should be on blade. No packaging as shown. No Gillette markings on blades and cartridge container like on real Gillette five blades.
