MAch 3 razor with that magnetic pulsing thing

Well i shelled out for 1 of these deluxe model razors. and hmm its basically a vibrator with a razor on it. I got a real nice close shave. Id give it a 9 outa 10.

Another boring review by me.

I wanted one of those, but I ended up going with the one without the vibrating feature. Do you actually think it makes any noticible difference? I'm still tempted to go get one

Yes... The best razor made to date IMO. The vibrating actually feels good when shaving. Less razor burn for me. I am using the new Gillette Complete Skin Care Shaving Gel. That is the best shaving cream I have ever used to date also.

I have sensitive skin and the combination of the above has made a huge difference.

whats it cost, and are you saying it's better than the $200 shavers?

I currently shave with a pack of 100 el cheapo plastic razors that I got from costco for about $25. I don't use any shaving cream, and half the time do it with my face dry. If the blade is sharp, it's not a lot of hassle.

Hmmmm... I don't remember how much it was now, was it $15 or so for the razor? I know the refills are a bit pricey as it uses the same ones as the non vibrating correct? Ah, who cares... It's a new gadget - and that makes it O K ... :D

How ironic. The last Christmas present I received from my first wife (now ex-wife) before we split up was an incredibly cheap vibrating razor (no name brand), in 1988. It was just like the new Mach 3 thing. She picked it up at the last minute at a drug store Christmas Eve when we had travelled to her parent's house (800 miles away) and she hadn't got a present for me yet - it was readily apparent just how much thought had gone into it's selection!

Anyway, it's ironic that an incredibly cheap-*** device from 16 years ago is "re-invented" into the latest and greatest thing from the biggest name in razors!

Regards,
Gordon

What about a rotary razor. What type of mileage would it get? Do you have to keep on adding oil?

I predict that the vibrating razor will put the Brazilian bikini wax salons out of business.

Dear Santa -- This would make a great stocking stuffer!

lol. I would be very afraid to put something that is very sharp and shakes next to mine. But you could always take the razor part off. Your gf will be happy thing shakes more than the california fault line

I have had one since father's day- I love it- I shave in the shower (it is waterproof) cause I am allergic to everything including shaving cream- I use dove soap and this bad boy razor and it is all good- It does take some getting used to as far as holding it though -------and whoever said they dry shave with the cheap cosco razors has certainly manned up! do you cut your fingernails with garden shears>?

use a face scrub before you shave and you'll lessen the razor bumps. I think the scrub pushes out the hairs so that you wont break as much skin. i used to have this problem and i started using a face scrub, and bam problem solved.
