I get about 2, maybe 3 good shaves, and then just throw the refill away. Makes my shaves expensive. Thought I might have a bad batch, so I purchase more. Same experience. I called Gillette, and they sent me a coupon for dollars off my next purchase of the same product. Just exactly what I didn't need. My advice: Go to your regular pharmacy, and buy their brand.

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.

I have been using Gillette razors since the 60s and have always found them to be superior to any competitors razors. About a month ago I picked up a 2 pack of Fusion5 cartridges by mistake. The best mistake I ever made! The first time i shaved with one of these blades I was shocked, it was the best shave I ever had and I estimate I've had 20,000 plus. I used that blade for about a month with no issues. This morning I changed to a new blade and like the first time, a great shave!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used the Gillette Fusion Manual Razor while on vacation and I think it was not until the next morning did I get a 5 oclock shadow! I could not believe how close the shave and how smooth my face was all day! I think I found my new razor!

I've used the Gillette Fusion razor for about two years. I previously used the Mach3, but the fusion gives me a much smoother shvae and leaves my skin feeling more refreshed after each use. I would recommend this razor to anyone looking for a improved shaving experience.

Generic blades. I was reading reviews because I thought these looked weird. There are many that said these are low quality and and pull and cause razor burn. It would be a great deal if they were legit. It doesn't say generic anywhere. It shows all sorts of Gillette stock photos. And I did not get what was shown in the photo. I got a generic zippy baggie with razor cartridges in there and a generic label. in single sealed baggies. This is clearly copyright issues with knockoff products. I checked for any of the similarities. The branding on the case is missing. The branding on the blades is missing as well. The branding area is blank. These are definitely not Gillette product. we all know brands are loud and proud if it's their product. Gillette isn't afraid of putting their name on their quality products. I am definitely getting my money back because this isn't even worth 50 bucks. Generic shouldn't be sold this high. and they need to be honest about the generic branding. They need to say it's generic. and take off all the Gillette branded product photos. And say it's "compatible" not that it is.

I use the Fusion more than any other razor - I find it doesn't knick or chafe like so many others and the blades last quite a while...My only issue is the price. It's very high and wish it would drop a little. Tried others, not even close to this blade.

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.

These Fusion razors used to last two months with bar intact and then I would change them. I soak them in rubbing alcohol between shaves. In the last month I have had two blades (the upper bars) completely far apart -- in just one week's time! What used to last two months now lasts less than one week. Unbelievable drop in quality control.

What can I say, but wow! This razor makes a mundane chore less challenging, and faster to boot! I can "shave off" several minutes of grooming with this incredible razor, and still feel clean and smooth all day! I always feel confident presenting my "best face" in public after shaving with Gillette products, especially the Fusion line. Truly a superior shave!
