So i got one of these Gillette Fusion’s in the mail not too long ago…not the stupid thing that you put the battery in…but the normal one with 5 normal blades, then a single blade on the flip side for the under the nose type spots… I was skeptical at first…and didn’t open the box for a week or two… I then tried it out…and it was great…not only was the quality great, but whereas most razors feel dull and leave burn easily after 1 or 2 uses with me…i got 3 great shaves out of this one freebie without no burn at all! Just went to Tops to buy some extra cartriges…and WTF!!! $27 and change for 8 cartriges… Despite the fact that the Mach 3 Turbo blades cost about $10 less per 8 pack…i think it has seen its final days…time to upgrade… all in all, i give it 4.5 out of 5 stars… I’m still waiting for something to come out that doesn’t dull for like 10 uses…then i’ll be impressed… ---

Electric shavers FTW. Rechargable. Blades last forever. I’ve had mine half a year and it still sharp as hell. Just basic matenice to keep it running good. ---

mach 3 with the vibration thing, awesome shave… little secret - lotion on your face makes the razor slide on your face easier, resulting in less cuts and less in grown hairs. with the shaving cream on top … aveno woulds beautifully ---

Ugh, maybe if you have 3 hairs on your chin. I can’t use electric razors. They take forever and I can never get every spot. ---

If you have a thick,dense beard you really cant use electric razors they cut your face and dont get it as close as a mach 3 would.Ive been using mach 3’s since i was 13 and cant complain lol. ---
