A ludicrously overpriced gimmick.

I recently mislaid my trusty Gillette Mach 3 razor and needed to do something about the stubble gracing my manly visage. A quick perusal of my local store's Cosmetics for Men section presented me with a welter of choices for scraping skin and hair fragments off my face.
I threw all rational thought out of the window and bought the most expensive one, a Gillette Fusion Power.
It has six blades to the Mach 3's, er, three, it's bright orange, and it vibrates. It must be a winner, right?
No. Absolutely not. It's awful. The shave it gave me was no better than I got from the Mach 3, and it certainly does not justify a price tag twice that of the Mach 3. The vibrating nonsense did not improve the shave, but it may have contributed to the red smears on my face from the blood. Until yesterday it had been years since I last cut myself shaving. I shall throw this junk away and buy another Mach 3 the next time I go shopping.
In short, the Gillette Fusion Power is a ludicrously overpriced gimmick, which will offer you no better shave than other, less expensive products. Steer clear.
