Pros:

gentle to skin, much cheaper blades

Cons:

none

I used a m3 power for over a year, then I switched to this mostly because of the much cheaper blade price. It ended up cutting just as close if not closer, and, best of all, it is much less irritating. After switching to this I am no longer afraid to shave because of irritation and razor burn.

Pros:

Less irritation but just as close a shave, cartridge lasts me a couple weeks, less blades for easier navigation

Cons:

Cartridges a bit spendy, nothing else.

I've tried the triple blades, four blades, and yes, the FIVE BLADE! (I swear I'm not crazy!) Shaves were often -too- close, ingrowns and irritating bumps came later (I have sensitive skin). When I found a comparison claiming a double blade (this was the particular one) did just as good of a job as any of those fancier +bladed ones, I jumped for it. The cartridges are spendy, but still not as $$ as many of the others. I feel like they last longer. Plus, it's easier to shave grooves like under the jaw. The blades have springy plastic "shocks" that help minimize irritation while still shaving close.

Pros:

Minimal skin irritation
Shaves smoothly around the chin lines

Cons:

Pricy blades
Doesn't shave as close as the ones with 3/4 blades, but that's why it helps to reduce irritation right.

This rasor combined with a good shaving gel/cream and a rinse with cold water afterwards is about the softest shave you can get.

Pros:

Very soft on skin (used to use the new Gillette Fusion) and a lot less expensive than other Gillette products. Works easier around corners. No aftershave burn.

Cons:

A little expensive as far as razors go but not as bad as other Gillette products.

DOn't be fooled by all the fancy new razors that are out. This one is by far the best for sensitive skin. I love it! And I have tried A LOT of razors!

Pros:

None

Cons:

Not good for my sensitive skin

There is at least 2 better razors for sensitive skin. The Schick FX 2 blade razor is excellent and the Bump fighter razor appears to be good also for sensitive skin.
