> 3 dayI got such a nice close shave. My skin feels soft and I didnt get any nicks. Ive only used it twice so I havent replaced the blades yet. I think half the battle with keeping your razor working its best is to thoroughly rinse it and let it air dry on a towel. This is a good razor and Id recommend it.

> 3 dayI used the Fusion 5 Power Razor on a weeks stubble while comparing its 5 blade shave with power on, off and compared it against my normal 3 blade Mach3 razor. In the end both razors gave a baby skin smooth shave after razoring against the grain with no cuts or rash. Read on for my detailed impressions: -- 2X THE COST: The Power Razor is about $13 while the Mach3 is about $7. -- POWER DOES NOT IMPROVE PERFORMANCE: The Power mode caused the razor to have small vibrations and you can use it with or without turnin it on and off from a slide switch in the handle. During a shave of a week long stuble and used the razor with and without the power vibrating mode. I actually found I preferred it without the power mode. I did not think the power mode provided any better or closer shave. -- EXCELLENT SHAVE THOUGH: The razor by itself is excellent and the power mode adds little if anything in better performance for a closer or smoother shave. -- NO CUTS OR RASH: Never a hint of a cut or abrasion causing a rash. Nice and smooth. -- NICE BIG HANDLE: I like the bigger substantial handle of the Power Razor vs the standard Mach 3 (see picture). -- HOWS IT COMPARE TO MACH 3?: Even with 5 blades vs the 3 blades in the Mach 3 I thought the Mach 3 held its own. The Power Blade perhaps gave a slightly better shave and removed the longer stubble a bit easier but is that worth 2x the cost? In the end both razors gave a baby skin smooth shave after razoring against the grain with not cuts or rash. -- POWER BLADE HELD SECURELY: One feature of the Power Blade that is much better then the Mach3 is how it holds the blade in place. When shaving especially with long stuble the hairs will clog between blades. A swish in the water will not clear this but a tap on the side of the sink will. On the Mach 3 this tap will often cause the blade to pop off the handle. The Power Blade has a very strong mechanism to hold with a button release and as hard as I could tap the razor the blade would not release. -- TRIM MODE: There is a single blade at the top for trimming side burns I guess. I can see how the power mode would assist this. I did not use it so I have no opinion on its performance only to say its a feature I would not use as the razor itself has always done an excellent job of trimming sideburns. -- NO INSTRUCTIONS: There are no instructions or suggestions for shaving techniques provided. Its possible the power mode is only meant to be used with trimmer. And as I said before the Power Mode had little benefit during the shave itself. CONCLUSION: The Power Blade is an excellent razor without the vibrating mode. I actually think its better without the Power on. The Power Blade has a comparable quality shave to the Mach 3 and I love the fact the Power Blades are held so strongly that a tap on the sink would release the blade and the larger handle is nice. As the Power Blade is 2x the price of the Mach3 I reserve one star. Cost and Power mode aside its an excellent razor.

> 3 dayI’ve had my original one for 17 years. I had to replace it as I must’ve gotten the inside battery compartment wet. But water has gotten inside but over time it took its toll. I’m still sticking with this model, old and reliable!
