Gillette ProGlide Flexball Power Shaver (Health and Beauty)

Customer Review

I was allowed to try out the aforementioned shaver in preliminary tests at trnd.com over a certain period of time in advance of publication and would like to describe my experiences below.

My direct comparison object is the Gillette Fusion razor with Fusion or Fusion ProGlide blades.
I would first like to comment briefly on the special features of this shaver. This includes the power function that will transmit vibrations to the blades in the ON state and shaving more comfortable and easier to make. The novelty, however, is the so-called Flexball technology. Thanks to this, the razor and the shaving head with the blade is a short distance laterally movable and should thus contribute especially in difficult crossing points to improve shaving results.

The shaver is encased in a plastic package and comes with a small stand, which, however, is made of cheap plastic and does not look as if he would last. The razor itself however is very high quality and is pleasantly heavy in the hand. In one side of the handle of the on / off button is processed for the power function, which can be pressed easily and lights in the on mode orange. The lower part of the handle can be screwed, so you can change the battery included.

The shaving itself feels (with switched power function) very pleasant to, to a certain extent more pleasant than with my razor previously used. It also goes my feeling for something liquid vonstatten what I can trace to a large extent on the power function. This pleases me very much, she wears unexpectedly to a noticeable improvement in shaving results. The specified as innovation Flexball technology I have largely unnoticed during shaving, a large lateral movement of the blades is not particularly struck me in the most time. However, I can see a slight change at the transition between the cheek and neck, where the shaving now a little liquid proceeds more than before. When observing the blade movement I was able to find a clear knocking the blade head. But a great change or improvement of the shaving result due to the Flexball technology I could not tell. The shaving was summarized but very thoroughly, to a certain extent more thoroughly than with my razor previously used.
This can now also start my conclusion. A large improvement due to the Flexball technology I could not notice, but sporadic, selective improvements are noticeable. A large part of the improvement of the shaving result bears my experience to the power function, which I did not expect before the test of the shaver. I would recommend this product definitely, because shaving is definitely very thorough and that the improvements are not ubiquitous, but there are noticeable. Therefore, I vacillate when assessing greatly between 4 and 5 star. At the end I forgive but 5 stars, as one, considering the razor itself, a product with excellent Rasierqualität.

Summary:
Positives:
+ Very thorough shave
+ Power function results in improvements
+ Razor itself is very high quality and pleasant to the touch
+ Good blades

Neutral / Negative:
- Improvements Flexball technology is not necessarily right away or only occasionally seen
- Very expensive replacement blades
- Cheap accessories (stand)
