I hate to even give this one star. First off, it doesn't shave nearly as close as a standard razor or even the Intuition. Second, I used this for the first time visiting a friend and left it at her house. A couple months later I returned and she had it waiting for me so I used it again. It made my legs break out in a rash of tiny blisters that the doctor called an allergic reaction. I have never had an allergic reaction to anything (and had no reaction the first time I used it). Since then, my mother has also gotten a similar rash (and she lives on the other side of the country). Her doctor said it was a bacterial infection probably caused by shaving. Guess what razor she was using? She had just returned home from traveling and so the razor had sat unused for a couple of weeks. Seems okay if you use it every day, but I wouldn't use this razor again on a bet. The gooey gel must be a breeding ground for bacteria. Ewww.

I have used just about every razor out there. Well when I saw this one I had to try it. Well, it works pretty well and it lubricates petty well too. The only thing bad about this razor is that they get really gooey when you use them which doesnt bother me but then also there is the price of these razors which is just crazy. Other than that this razor is a 5-star.

Well, it doesn't give me as close of a shave as the Gillette Fusion, but I really did like the shave bars. I really hate having to use shaving cream; put it on too thick and it hinders shaving, so I found the bars to be just right. Just be sure to keep your legs and the bars wet and it'll glide right along. So, all in all, I think it's a fabulous idea. I don't have to mess with shave foam and I think makes up for the fact that I'll have to start shaving every day again. I'm all for simple.

The strips don't provide enough lubrication, and don't last nearly as long as the razor blades themselves. The replacement blades are very expensive too, so it makes this razor idea pretty unreasonable. I have to use soap with it after the first 2-3 shaves, which defeats the purpose. The only good thing going for it is that it gives a good shave, but you can just get the basic Venus model if that's all you're after. Disappointed.

The gel bars are amazing for about three days, but it doesn't last a week. This makes these blades pretty expensive.

I was so excited to try these blades when they first came out, but I was disappointed. The gel bars didn't lubricate my legs well enough, so I ended up with several nicks. I started using shave cream with them, which defeats the purpose of the gel bars! I really love the other Gillette Venus, so I have gone back to using those.

I like this razor a lot but the shaving gel strips get kind of gooey. Other than that, I am satisfied.

this is a great razor, it cuts extremely close. i like it alot, no messy shaving cream, just jump in the shower with it and your done. i have it a 3 because the soup on the blade only last at most 5 days if u shave everyday.

This is an amazing razor for a close shave! The first time I used this my legs felt smooth for almost a full week! I've tried other razors, but no other one could stand up to this product!

I used intuition razors for about three years until these came out. These strips last much longer, for me about 7-10 shaves. They also give a closer shave than the bulky intuition razors. I deducted one star for the insanely high price of the refill cartridges though.
