The new Fusion razor sucks. It has five blades whatever but it still doesn't even do that good of a job. I prefer the regular Mach 3 Turbo.

Mach3 original is still my fav. I tried a freebie Schick Quatro yesterday and it absolutely sucks. Feels like I'm shaving with a fake block of a razor.

Mach 3 Turbo is still the best => FTW!!!

From the time they started with the battery vibrator stuff it all went down the drain ;)

What is the point of the battery/vibrating razor? What's supposed to be the advantage?

Dunno...the blades are more expensive than M3 Turbos but IMHO far lower quality...which is supposed to be overplayed by the vibration I guess... ;)

Best razor I've ever used, by far. I didn't bother with the useless "vibrator" model. Just the manual version. Best, and I'm comparing it to both past Gillettes and Shick razors.

IMO they reached the apex of razor design with the original Sensor, all those years ago. The 3- 4- and 5-blade razors are a complete waste of money unless you happen to sell them.

I havnet tried it yet but I used to use the mach3 and I would see no reason to upgrade to a new version. I now use a electric shaver...sure it may cost more at first but those blades are so expensive you will make it up eventually.

I use the M3 power, and I actually get a closer shave than the manual M3, FWIW.

Yeah, I got sick of cartridge costs and have gone retro. I now use a DE razor.

You should all consider going REALLY retro: The Flintstones bumblebee-in-a-clamshell razor.
