Nowhere close to being as effective as the Shick Hydro 5. After having the same razor for well over a decade, I was excited to replace it but since Sam's didnt have the Hydro 5 I decided, after many, many readings of reviews, to purchase the Gillette Fusion. Suffice it to say, I expected any 5 blade razor should be comparable and the blade on my Hydro 5 is several months old so I expected a superior shave when using a brand new razor and blades. What a disappointment! Not only did it not perform as well on my face, but even my legs were stubbly and had hair that the blades missed entirely. I will probably return this and find my Hydro 5 cartridges elsewhere. You might be wise to leave this on the shelf.

These don't come in the retail packaging as shown. 2 packs of 8 that come in plain white plastic wrappers. These seem to be for institutional or European sale or do I dare say to be suspicious of being genuine? I'm keeping them and might update later.

I believe these are of high quality and lowest per-razor cost after checking the price at Walmart, Kroger and Meijer. Couldn’t pass them up. I use one blade for about 3-4 weeks; I rinse the razor after every shave and “blow dry” the blade for 10 seconds with my wife’s blow dryer, after every shave.

I have purchased these blade cartridges every year for my son since he was 18. He has sensitive skin and easily gets shaving bumps. He has found that these work the best for him to avoid that. They are pricey, but it prevents the scaring that can occur and one pkg last him almost one year.

I received my order but not packaged as advertised. The razors were packaged individually without the name Gillette anywhere? The razors themselves are not marked with the brand name either. With a onetime use, the blue strip came off and the white strip under the blue wiped off as well. The razors pulled at my hair during a shave giving me razor burn and leaving me with a hack job. With 5 razor blades this should not happen! This should be a smooth clean shaving experience. I do not believe these are true Gillette razors but some unknown knock off. I want a refund and perhaps someone should look into this matter. Currently you are charging customers for Gillette razors but are providing some cheap knock off! I added photos, the razor on the left is a Gillette defined by brand name on product. Other razors clearly are knockoffs

The blades are of low quality and does not feel original. Packing from outside looks good, but when you look closer it is from another country and not the same quality as you would expect from Gillette. These will not work good on your skin so please don’t order, better to go in store and purchase in person.

The blades are dull. It's been awhile since we last purchased Gillette razor blades and we have always been pleased with them. We're not sure if something changed or if we just got a defective package, but the ones we just purchased are poor quality and do not work well at all. We wish there was some way to know if we could get a refund because they were expensive and don't work well.

The image shows a Gillette product. When received it was an obvious knockoff. These were so painfull to shave with I immediately after one stroke thru them back in the package and set back to walmart. I regestered a complaint with walmart that they were allowing Trademark Infringement on their website.

These are my 'go to' cartridges and are excellent! I was also not aware that based on my Sam's Club membership level I could have them delivered for free, in just 2 days. This was super important because they were not available in store. A Sam's employee in Fishkill recommended I try this, wish I knew his name!

Product received was a knock-off. They were not in original packaging as shown in image. I tried using one and could immediately tell the poor quality of the blade as it tore up my face. I actually put my old cartridge back on because a month-old cartridge gave a more comfortable shave than these did.
