Even after reading the bad reviews here, I am willing to try it on my next shave.

Wish me good luck. :Q


Give me your address so I know where to send the paramedics, just in case...


;)

Got mine yesterday. But it could have arrived last week too, since I haven't checked the PO box in about that long. I'll have to try it out once I get through these next 3 Mach3 blades.

Got mine, used it this morning..its definately a close cutter and very smooth but it was a bit too close of a cut. Regarless though I will have to use it several times before I can really pass judgement. So far so good though, it cuts closer than my Mach 3 for sure.

Got mine, and I don't like it. Harder to clean out the hair unlike the Mach3 and not as smooth cutting as the Mach3. The large head on this makes it tough to control.

Just wait until razors need like 12 blades to qualify as "new and improved".:)

Really? I thought mine did an awesome job at not having hairs stuck in it!

They must have sent me the overclocked A64 model :D

Tried mine tonight, no cuts, decently smooth shave. I also think less hair got stuck in thsi razor. But in all I still prefer the mach3.

After four shaves, mine now sits in the trash. My Mach 3 was MUCH less irritatiing.

Got mine today. Adding it to the pile of free quatro's. I agree, but tough it out and your skin will get leathery enough that you won't be able to feel it anymore.

I got 2 in the mail today. One for teh missus and one for me! :)

As for the comparison between the Quattro and the Mach 3, I don't know. I will use it when my Sensor Excel blade needs replacement. I have never been fond of the Mach 3. Overpriced without the performance if you ask me. I did some testing for Gilette on a FIVE bladed model and I loved it. Much smoother and closer shave and it had better pressure on the blade... but you didn't hear that from me! ;) SHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
