Customer ReviewsExcellent blades and cost effective5 / 5.0
I have a heavy dark beard and I need to shave every day. These turbo blades combined with a good shaving gel last me around 2-3 months before I HAVE to replace it. Now after a couple of weeks they don't shave as effortlessly as fresh out of the box but I am a frugal person and don't like to waste money. The important thing to me is that if I shave in the morning I don't want a shadow in the evening. These blades do that. I often go the weekend without shaving so on Monday the blade has alot of work to do and after 2-3 months it can still handle it. With this schedule this shaving system isn't expensive at all-less than $1/month.
Great Razor, but blades expensive.5 / 5.0
It is a great razor, but the blades are expensive. I love this razor and I have tried others to save money. But I always come back. The blades do last, but a fresh razor is always best. I use the blades as long as possible and change them for dates and important events. You can get away with about 25 shaves, but for the closest shave, change after a week of use. The best results are usually the first 4 shaves. I just place the older blades in the case and reuse them for weekend and normal work days. I have gone up to 30 days with one razor. Try and buy the blades in bulk and on sale. Amazon had a great sale once, 25% off and free shipping. That helps reduce the cost.

Do we really need a review for this? It's a shaving system, it shaves hair, what else do you need to know? hahahahaha..I'm just kidding!
I would have to disagree with some of the other reveiwers on this. Yes it does state you need to change blades every time the blue strip goes away. But to be honest with you theres no way your blue strip goes away that quick to where it would require 10 times a month! you must be shaving your whole body, legs, arms and face! i shave my face daily, and if i went off of the blue strips then i would be stupid! because my blue strips last longer then what i feel is the life span of one of these blades. i go through about 2 blades a month and each blade ive thrown out has the blue strip still but it was faded some what. yes i have seen the blue strip completely disappear as well.
back to the review though. i would really encourage people to opt for the turbo vs the original or even the vibrating one! original is cheap yes, but the turbo feels better on sensitive skin, and the virbrating one i think its a waste of money!
Gillette Mach3Turbo Shaver4 / 5.0
Of all the Gillette shavers, this is the best. It is comfortable to use, does a good job of shaving, and each blade lasts for 9 - 10 days.Gillette, Mach3 Turbo Shaving System, 1 system
How are you fixed for blades?5 / 5.0
Razors are razors. However, I have had a few that I swear the blade went before the beard. Others being marginal my wife made me use to dull down so she could use them.
These animals just do not dull. Gillette must count on the volume of users because Gillette would starve to death waiting for me to use enough to make production worthwhile. And I use shaving soap just to mark the area covered as there is already some sort of slick lubricating strip on the cartridge; without this strip I would not know when to toss the blade out.
