[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think the Gillette Mach 3 is awesome. I leaves my skin without razor burn and bumps. I love and wont use any other razor from here on out. it leaves you face looking and feeling good. couldn't be any happier with this product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Mach3 razor gave me a close, clean shave. I have thick facial hair and very sensitive skin that gets irritated easily. 4 or 5 blade razors would clog because of my thick hair, I didn't have that problem with the Mach3. My skin felt smooth had no irritation after shaving with the Mach3

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It has been several years since I have shaved with a Gillette Mach 3 razor. I forgot how great a shave I could get with this reliable standard. I found the shave as good as I can get from much more expensive razors. I also found that when I use Gillette ProFusion Clear Shaving gel it made the shave very comfortable, effortless and very close. I am now using Mach 3 razor blades everyday and couldn’t be more pleased.

I have used these razors for around 25 years. I would always find a few in the pack of new razor heads that had poor quality blades.I went to Sam’s Club to get new heads, they had a special on Mach 3 where I could get the razor handle and around 15-20 new heads cheaper than the heads alone. I had, maybe 3 heads, that were quality and the rest would not cut at all especially after the first use. I’m changing, they have just gone down hill so far that they are too expensive to waste my money on poor quality.

I've been using the Mach 3 since 1998, I've tried several brands but this is my go to for a smooth shave. For me more than 3 blades lift the hair up to far before it cuts and releases the hair which then drops below the skin causing ingrown hairs and white heads as the skin may grow over the pore before the hair grows out. Plus the small area the blades cover are just right to get beneath the nose without leaving stragglers. Its also great for the older generation like me because over the years my hair has grown confused and the grain runs in 8 different directions!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Got the razor and my first impression was it was nice. Taking the razor out of the package and holding it for the first time thought it was a little thin and smaller compaired to the razor i am currently using. Has a nice rubberized grip wich makes it easy to hold even when wet and slippery from the shaving cream. The blades were nice. Gave a smooth shave and the hair cleaned out easy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This razor is a staple. I've used it in the past and the shave is so perfect. Very little effort to achieve a perfect shave with no nicks or cuts! You can shave with only soap! Only downside is that EVERY time I drop it, the blade cartridge pops off.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] For someone who shaves fairly often, I genuinely feel like this Gillette mach 3 is both the best value in a razor I have used and quite possibly the top razor I have felt on my face. I'll tell you why. First, the blade has an uncanny ability to conform to your face in a rather comforting way. You need not use a plethora of shaving cream; rather, simply coat your face and begin shaving. I used this razor twice while on vacation without cream and felt little to no tightness or pulling one would normally experience. That's indicative of an extremely high quality razor, contrasting with its relatively low price point. What really sold me on the razor was its durability. I have really tough bristles on my face as I keep my face closely cut and never give the hair room to smooth out. Normally, a comparative razor blade gives me maybe 5-8 shaves. I used this blade for 12. For a razor at this price point, its durability is out of the ballpark. After a fantastic experience with this razor, I'm seriously considering sticking with Gillete (I've become a little addicted to not rubbing shaving cream on my face :))

The Mach3 razor is a good razor, but nowhere near as great as the late Mach3 Turbo!!! Speaking of, where did the Turbo razor go? It was the best on the market, defeating any and every other brand out there! Now we're left with second best for a not as great shave experience. What gives?

Normally I would not take time to do a review, but every morning I shave compels me to at least mention this. I bought a package of blades (3) and razor about 14 months ago. I still have the plastic holder of blades with two new blades still in it. Probably not good news for Gillette because if others have the same success you will not sell us any blades for three more years.
