Review on πŸͺ’ Gillette Fusion5 Power Men's Razor Blade Refills, 8-Pack, Enhanced Lubrastrip for a Superior Shaving Experience by Lisa Chenault

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Great razors, wish they had lasted longer.

I find Gillette Fusion razors better than other affordable razors in their class. However, I do notice a slight decrease in the quality and durability of these razors. Not sure if they've changed anything on the build, but they don't last as long (for me) as they used to. I'm sure they will be great for everyone else, but I have a thicker beard myself and sometimes use them to shave my head. My commitment to them is strong, fight twice a week. The blades I bought from the store (Target, Walmart) had a blue border as shown in my photo. These, and now commercially available, have an orange lip. I'm not sure if there's a difference between the two, but I've found that the older ones (blue ones) last longer. I rely on them because my facial hair is thicker than the average user, but given the high price, I want them to live up to their reputation for durability. Even when I try other razors, I keep coming back to them because of the precision trimmer. I use it A LOT. However they get clogged up pretty quickly, I hope they fix it. Now that I've spoken to them about my disappointment, I'll admit that they're still way better than most razors in this class available.

Pros
  • Gillette Fusion Power Advanced 5A Blades
