No real difference between this and the other alternatives but still good quality 

I shaved 3 times with this razor, 2 passes each time with a few extra patches. The razor is a good design but it does not shave close enough and leaves patches. Let me explain. The top and bottom pads are raised way higher than the blades themselves which in my opinion is the reason for the bad performance. I wouldn't recommend this razor. I would say get the fusion as its a cleaner and closer shave than this design.Side note to Gillette, design the fusion blades to fit this handle, without the excessive price of the Lab blades. Customers can use the handle then with the fusion/pro-glide blades, this would be good as it wouldn't mean the handle will be wasted as many have already thrown it away.

Great! My partner uses this razor and it leaves a nice clean effortless shave

I've never had a closer shave before. The finish is excellent.

I'm always a fan of Gillette products and really like this razor, gives a really good smooth shave. Will buy the foam too to compliment it.One downer, the magnetic stand doesn't work and it annoyingly keeps falling out of the bathroom cabinet. :-)

Good product, really nice travel case comes with IT and comfortable magnetic stand

Normally use Wilkinson sword, thought I would give Gillette a try am very pleased with purchase and the shave it gives me, I would certainly recommend.

Excellent close shave as with all Gillette products.

My husband is a long distance lorry driver he has one of theses and loves them.

Gives you a close shave has a good grip very easy to handle and I am very satisfied with this purchase
