Better shave for less money

I have a heavy beard growth and have had good luck with years of using the Mach 3. I recently tried the Fusion an discovered several things. First, a smoother, faster shave and without the nicks.Second, the grip is harder to adjust to (I am right handed) and could use improvement (like the Mach 3). And third, it costs less per shave. I got a week out of the Mach 3s. I am at 2 1/2 weeks with the Fusion and counting.

Worst blade I have ever used!

I had originally bought another Gillette razor and was very happy with the quality of both the handle and the blades. After I used the last blade I replaced them with the Fusion blades. The brand new bland is so dull that it shaves like an old discarded blade. The old blades would last a few weeks, but the new blades are so dull that they only last a few days. I would get more use out of disposable razors than I am from these expensive blades. I am extremely disappointed with the quality of this product and am very close to just throwing the rest of the blades in the trash.

We take great care in creating all of our razors. By using premium top-grade steel, each of your Fusion5 blades should last around a month's worth of shaves. A few days won't cut it for either of us. You can make those blades last that long by softening your skin and hair with warm water for around two minutes. This will make your hair and skin so soft that your razor should have no trouble cutting them with ease. If your hair is coarser, it can wear down the blades much faster. Your experience is important to us, and we'd like to learn more about it. Call us at 800-445-5388.

Handle is terrible

I really wanted to like this razor because I appreciate it when a company tries to improve the product. I liked the idea of the single blade on the back to help shave under the nose but seriously- has anyone in product development tried to hold this razor. If I don't hold it in exactly one position, it slips from my hand - I will be going back to my trusty Mach 3 - no difficulty holding that razor in multiple positions. I don't know if it is not designed with left handed people in mind - but when I hold it naturally like a tool - it immediately wants to twist in my grip, Seems slightly better in right hand - but I'm a lefty. I don't want to have to hold it in a fist. Better research next time please.

What a shave!

Wow the Gillette fusion has to be the best shave by far ,I compared it against the king of shaves razor and it was a terror lee shave plus didnt have that all important 5th blade on the front end for the detail. I think the fusion has been very well though about and even tho the blades are over priced its worth it for an amazing experience from Gillette .

These replacement cartridges have always been my favorites, and, in my opinion, never improved upon. Just the perfect combination of edge, metal and lubrication which never fails to give me the closest shave that I believe possible. Makes shaving bearable for me and for my money, these blades are simply the best!

What happened?!?

I have been a loyal head shaving Gillette fan for 25 years. I don't know what change about this new version of fusion blades but they are horrible. They are patchy and pull weird. I thought it was just me being Uber picky until my wife said the same thing. Please fix this Gillette!!

Great Shave

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I normally don't buy multi-blade shavers because in the past they didn't work for me. This Gillette Fusion razor gave me a great close shave. The multi blade system on this Gillette razor is so much better than ones I have tried from other companies in the past. This is now my razor of choice. Thanks Gillette.

Going threw the ringer.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have tried many razors and very few pass the test. Being a Veteran I'm not gentle with a razor. I have done three test so far with this razor. Straight out the box I soaked the razor and left it for a week. I was very surprised that the blades gave a great smooth shave. Second I shaved with no soap or foam in cold water, still close smooth pleasant shave. The third was shaving with same blades with hand soap. With out glitch it was still a great shave. I was concerned that the blade was a bit big but it work well. Now for the bad I haven't tried the blade on the end. I clean shave so I don't detail sideburns, mustaches.or beards. as for now I give it thumbs up. Now for more test.

Fusion razor and blades

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.

close shave

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After using the Gillette fusion razor several times here are some of my thoughts. Really liked the shape and feel of the handle. Also has a great futuristic look to it. Blade cartridges are easily changeable. The cartridge delivers a close and smooth shave. I noticed it would tug more than some others I have used in the past. Liked the edge blade for trimming, also useful for hard to reach areas Overall this is a very good razor and would recommend to anyone.
