The fusion gave a good shave for like 1 or 2 shaves then the blades were worn out and needed replaced. Given that I shave my head this equated to a trip to the store every week. With the astronomical price of fusion blades and my love of keeping my gold pressed latnim I made the switch. Forgive the Star Trek TNG terminology.The Fusion gives a good shave, it's just that it doesn't hold up for many shaves and isn't worth the money.
