Gillette3 Mens Razor Blades by Gillette, 20 Blade Refills

Works well

Weve been using Mach 3 blades for years so when I saw a deal on these for a little more than a buck a piece, I had to try them. Ive used a number of third party heads that fit the Mach 3 handles and some are better than others. The Walmart brand was surprisingly good, although a little clunky, but I can no longer find them. So far, Im very pleased with these and for my beard, I have no reason to spend the extra money on the Mach 3 version.

Not very happy with the blades. No where near the quality of real Gillette blades. With Gillette blades, they would last for a while. These imitations get dull after first or second use.

cuts good

Was a present for a friend

Good

Would buy again

I used these in the past but have always upgraded to the newer models of razor. So I started to think are the new ones that much better or am I just buying into the marketing hype? I never remembered having a problem with these older razors so why not give them a try? I now shave my head as well as my face and was using the mach 5 fusion. First I did my face. It did a good job on my face although I will say it seemed there was more friction than the mach 5.that alone could be subjective, just afeeling. What I cant deny is there was a different sound as well, I could literally hear the friction. Then I went to my head. There was a major difference here. Possibly the scalp is more sensitive but it was not comfortable. The sound of friction was so pronounced I knew it was different. It was like how a mach 5 felt when it was dull. My head felt irritated when I was done. I went back to the mach 5 for the head. I can make these work on my face. Since most men probably only use it for the face that might be good enough. If you have used this model and they work well I think Id save some money and keep using them. If you have sensitive skin you should be OK but I might buy a handle with a couple heads and make sure they work for you, especially if your changing to this model or downgrading. For my head Im sticking to the mach 5 because my head just is too sensitive. I was sort of surprised that theres really that much of a difference between the more modern razors. I have to rate these a 3 just because I cant use them for my head. I assume its a skin sensitivity issue with my scalp but that also makes me think people with sensitive skin might like another model more.

Same as Mach 3 just cheaper I guess bc of packaging great buy!

Pretty good shave.
