Best manual razor I have used, 7 Sept. 2014

This is by far the best manual razor I have used. I had been using the Gillette Fusion Proglide prior to this, convinced that I should splash out and get a "decent" razor for shaving, but I found it caused quite a bit of discomfort - particularly on the neck, where it would get really sore during and after a shave. This happened regardless of how well I prepared before starting, and regardless of the different gels/creams used to shave with. I'd read some reviews that said the Mach 3 had considerably less tug, and therefore a much smoother shave, despite being older and cheaper, and I'm happy to say that this is absolutely true. The shave I get from this razor is vastly superior to that of the more expensive Fusion Proglide, and I'm saving about £4 each time I buy a new four pack of blades as well. I've also noticed that the blades on the Mach 3 last considerably longer than those on the Fusion Proglide - where they used to tug on the neck hairs even more after about 3-4 uses...

a comfortable razor, 22 Sept. 2013

Used to use this brand years ago, but got fed up with the rising cost of the blades.Boots wanted £14 for 8 blades...madness!!! when the razor was only a fiver.I get a good shave, and it is comfortable to use .No annoying nicks in sensitive areas.

No more whiskers, 16 Dec. 2013

Don't worry cat lovers, I'm referring to my beard. The mach 3 razor is the best Gillette make. The blades do not clog up in use and are easy to clean. You are not paying for unnecessary blades or gimmicks. The seller was very quick in sending these out.
