Manufacturer Product Description |
Gillette Fusion Power is Gillette's Most Comfortable Shave. 8 years of shaving innovation and 20 more patents make Gillette Fusion Power Phantom better than MACH3. Gillette Fusion Power Phantom is an advanced shaving system with an advanced design that provides optimal performance when using either side of the razor. On the front of the cartridge, Gillette Fusion Power Phantom features 5 PowerGlide® Blades spaced closer together to form a shaving surface technology. This design distributes the shaving force across the blades to help reduce pressure, with more comfort and less irritation than MACH3.
| | The back of the cartridge has a truly innovative Precision Trimmer—a single blade built into the back of the cartridge, allowing you to easily trim sideburns, shave under your nose, or shape facial hair, such as goatees, soul patches, and chinstrap beards. A soft touch, secure handle that intuitively rolls through the fingers allows for an easy 180-degree transition between the shaving surface on the front and Precision Trimmer on the back. Gillette Fusion Power Phantom also contains a Flexible Comfort Guard that follows the contours of your face and pulls your skin taut for a comfortably close shave. Additionally, it features an Enhanced Indicator Lubricating Strip that gradually fades to white when you are no longer getting your optimal shave, so you always know when to change the blades. Inside the handle is an oscillating motor that delivers soothing micropulses, which help reduce friction and increase razor glide. Also living inside the handle is the onboard microchip, which creates an entirely new platform of technology that improves the system's performance and brings electronics to wet shaving for the first time. The microchip serves three primary functions: It regulates voltage for consistent power, it controls the Low Battery Indicator Light, which alerts you when the battery runs low, so you always have power when you need it, and it powers the Automatic Shut-Off, which turns the razor off after about 8 minutes in case of accidental activation and protects the battery during travel. | - 5-Blade Shaving Surface Technology with 5 PowerGlide® Blades spaced closer together to help reduce pressure-with more comfort and less irritation than MACH 3

Disappointed in the Gillette Fusion |
|
I have been using this razor for about 5 weeks now. The razor works fine without the power feature which vibrates the blade. At first, I liked the power feature and used it for about one week, but then I just found it a bit annoying and haven't used it since then. The power feature actually slows you down a bit as you cant rush the blade over your stubble as I have become used to doing after a hot shower in the morning. I can tell that using 5 blades gives me a slightly closer shave than my previous razor with 3 blades (the mach 3) but I honestly don't care about the slight difference. Hence I have come to the conclusion that this is not much of an advance in shaving technology, in a strange way, it is actually a step backwards as the prices of blades have gone up without a real noticeable enhancement in my shave. I am glad that they haven't stopped making my previous blades and will likely switch back to those after I have used up all of my fusion blades. |

Just like any Gillette product. |
|
It does fairly well, sometimes will scratch up the face - but that's any razor for you. It is much better than Schick products, but sometimes with any of the Fusion/Mach products it just doesn't 'cut it' |

Worst Gillette Product Ever!! |
This has to be the worst Gillette shaving blade ever made. The head is so big that it is virtually impossible to shave well under your nose and chin. The bibrating gimmick is absolutely useless and a complete waist of a battery. Is a shame that a company that generally comes out with very good products could design such a terrible product.
I have no idea whom in their right mind would give a possitive review to this product. You are either drunk, on drugs or work for Gillette. |

An Improvement |
|
This is an improvement over the prior razors but needs to have a heavier feel, to light. |

absolutely impressed. |
I have used many razors over the years, including buying a few overpriced electric razors. Recently I asked my girlfriend to pick up some razors at the store "not cheap ones please" and boy was that a mistake. Anyway, I happened to be on Mychildrensstore already buying something so I looked at razors and decided on this one. I actually didn't know that it was a battery operated razor. I had used a Gillette razor before and it gave me a good shave. So when I got this one with the battery and stuff I was kinda skeptical but figured it would shave good without the vibrations so I didn't have to turn it on to shave if I didn't want to... I thought maybe it would just carve up my face like a Halloween pumpkin. The first time I used it I was very pleasantly surprised. I figured maybe it was just because it was a brand new blade, which always shave great the first time. I am here writing this review now because after a week and a half of using this thing with the same blade, it's still shaving closer than any shave I've ever had before. Really. I have had close shaves before but could still feel where the hair would eventually come back again meaning it was close but like it was only cutting the hair even with the skin and this one seems to cut it even lower if that makes sense. I can't believe how smooth my face is. Truly smooth as a baby's butt. I have to actually take my time and pay attention now more than before, because if I miss a spot, I can really feel the difference. My girlfriend has really noticed the difference too... (don't tell her I said this but it's almost annoying how much she is touching and kissing my face now. lol)
I didn't get any replacement blades with my original order, but I've been looking at the local stores and all the prices have been twice what I see here on Mychildrensstore for replacement blades. The actual razor is about the same, but I laughed when I saw 4 replacement blades at Rite Aid for the same price I just bought 8 here on Mychildrensstore. I think I'll buy some more replacements to have on hand when I go traveling next month.
I have no idea what the last reviewer is complaining about. This thing is great... and the extra blade for trimming sideburns is great, even helps me to get under my nose perfectly. I feel no danger of being cut. I really believe this is the most complete and closest shave I have ever had. Very satisfied. I will never use a disposable razor or an electric razor again. |
