Default New Turbo Disappointment...

Well I needed some new razors and my mom had to pick up a few things at wal-mart so I told her to get me some. She calls me back and asks if I want original mach 3 blades or the turbo mach 3 blades. Well I figured I would give the turbos a try.

Comparison: I wasn't a big fan of the color change to grey since I liked the original black, but if they perform well I don't really care. The turbo blades looked about the same as the original so I wasn't sure why they were turbo.

Installation: They were just as easy to install as the original blades. If you can't figure it out your retarded.

Performance: They are supposed to be smoother and they were. After the first swipe with the turbo blade I could tell they were different. I swear I could feel the aloe and vitamin E as I was shaving. I was very disappointed in how close they shaved. Since they were turbo I was expecting them to be a lot better, but I thought they were actually worse. I have only used them once so I will update later when I give them a few more trys.

Overall Review: If your looking for a close shave stick with the originals. If you want a smooth shave get the turbos. I can still feel the aloe and vitamin E and I shaved yesterday.

I cut myself about 50 million times, but I was expecting that because they were new blades. I cut myself just as much with new original blades as I did with the new turbo blades. They should get better after I use them a few times.

I use the cheap diposables. ---- all that commercialism with "The ultimate closeness" and all that other ----. Give me a ------- knife to shave my grill with and I'll be fine.

I have to say though, the last pack of disposables I bought came with 2 Gillete sensor3 razors and it alost changed me. Those things were nice, but ---- that ----.
