Gillette Mach 3 Complaints

[John]

I use a Gillette Mach 3 razor and after 2 shaves, the gel bar runs out and the shave is nowhere near as close. Do I have to seriously replace blades every shave?

[Mark]

My Mach 3 blades are lasting about 3 shaves before they break, actually coming apart from the mount.

I'm switching razors.

I.ve used Gillette Razers for over 50 years. The Mach 3 Turbo after trying it for over a year is very uncomfortable pulling my beard instead of gliding smoothly. Tried various remedies and to no avail. Suggest you scrap the razer or provide me with the cause.

[hjh]

the razors are not manufactured in the city of Gillette Wy, not trying to be rude, we share the name, but have nothing to do with the company except that we sell them in stores

Had two mach 3s turbo & both broke.What a load of crap.

[Tony H]

I find I must disagree I found the Mach 3 to be a fine shave unlike the Excel sensor which I found to be very poor I found you had to reshave after a couple of hours unlike the Mach 3.I will be retuning to Mach 3.

Bought a Gillette Turbo and the cartridge seperated after a week into two parts. Couldn't find a address to send a complaint to.

I have been using Gillette blades for last 15 years and I have become sort of Brand loyal. Recently I have noticed that Mach 3 is nowhere near to what it was earlier. The shave doesn't get closer even after 3 pulls. Earlier Mach 3 used to last for month and the present Mach3 doesn't even last a week.
Is this a marketing strategy to change to higher version of Gillette Shaving Blade.

Gillette is a town in Wyoming. Why don't all of you whining about your razors simply try them on your wrists for a change....

My question is, why are they trying so hard to EOL the Mach3 and replace with the Mach 5. These commercials with Tiger Woods (and friends) implying only losers who are not with it would still be using the Mach 3. I guess it's not so much a question but a disgust with Gillette that they are making so much more margin on the more expensive (newer) razor that they cant even let people stay with a cheaper razor (Mach 3) that is perfectly sufficient. Bastards! the minute they stop making the Mach3, I switch brands...Just out of principal. And not just for razors, Cream, Deodorant, and that new shampoo that I am holding off buying.

You are right. Hicks live in the middle of nowhere. Wait a minute - Mississauga Canada is also a big nowhere....in fact most of Canada falls in this category....

Recently the Mach 3 blades have been inferior, I have changed to disposable Schick razors. They much better and more economical. Will never buy Mach 3 again!!! E-Mail [e-mail]

[Faisal]

Should i buy Gillette MACH3 or MACH3 Victory. Which one is better.

[A True Hick]

I'm also confused, should I buy a MACH.3 Victory? Or should I just move to Gillette, Wy. and then buy a MACH3?

[disapointed]

I have been using mach 3 for years. Recently they have changed something in the design. Its a terribly uncomfortable shave now. I have to find something new.

[herrbear]

When I started using the Mach 3 a couple of years ago, I swore by their perfomance. However, about 2 months ago I purchased about 10 packs of blades and these things are just garbage. They tug and pull on my face like an old dull, useless piece of crap. Never again!!

I have been using Gillette blades for last 3 or 4 years. Recently I have noticed that Mach 3 is nowhere near to what it was earlier. The shave doesn't get closer even after 2 pulls. i have to replace blade every 2 or 3 shaves.
before i was purchasing from small stores, then i started to purchase from Hyper stores thinking they may be having Genuine products. but thngs went reverse. the stuff i purchased from Hypermaket was totally rubbish. they r cheating the customers.

my wife bought me a gillette mach 3 power razor after years of wet shaving i found this one useless.
i can'not wait to get back to my old wet shaver,
and would not even considder the new model even given free.
