Labs Heated Men's Razor + 1 Razor Blade Refill, FlexDisc Technology, 100% Waterproof, Gifts for Men, 2 Pin UK Plug

I set out to get myself a really nice shaver and was prepared to spend the right money. I started by looking at high end electric shavers, some as much as £400.00!!......but even at that price range the reviews were awful, could not find one at any price with good reviews. I then looked at my existing Gillette shaver, a simple three bladed shaver that gives me a clean shave every time and never lets me down....based on this I decided to look and see what else Gillette had to offer. The heated shaver by Gillette is a fabulous piece of kit. Well made, comfortable, lovely grip. Slightly heavier than the standard razor which give a reassuring feeling of quality. The blade head swivels giving me a perfect shave every time. The heater works perfectly, heats instantaneously, and you feel the warmth against your skin. It comes with a nice charging base, plugs in on a two pin shaver point, razor stands in in magnetically. I bought the razor from Amazon because its selling at half the price it is selling for on the Gillette site? Regarding the cost, its very cheap if you compare it to a good electric shaver, its very expensive if you compare it to a standard shaver....... I love it: Good quality Perfect shave every time Warm blades add a little luxury to my shave

This was my first Movember so I wanted to treat myself. The shave was by far the best I have had outside a barbershop. I had a ten-day beard so I expected the experience to be quite a struggle but it wasn't. First, the razor comes in smart packaging similar to the one you get with an iPhone so it really makes a good first impression. It makes it ideal to gift. Second, the machine itself looks and feels like a well-made luxurious device. The charger base looks sleek and modern although it was a bit heavier than I expected. Before shaving, I charged it for about an hour. Once it was ready to use, I turn it on and found out it heated up pretty quickly: in less than 10 seconds. I used regular foam and purposely prepared the sink with cold water to really test the heating capability. Even after submerging the razor in cold water, the temperature came back up quickly. Now the shaving: I could feel the warm feeling even on a longer beard than I would have usually had; it was powerful but without getting too hot. The heat made it less of a struggle to shave against the grain With each go, the razor kept the same temperature, which made it a quick shave. I would only stop to rinse and immediately continue. In conclusion, the razor does perform better than any other I had tried but what I enjoyed the most is the constant warm feeling on my face. There is just something soothing about shaving with heat.

I picked this up with a third off, and for that price, it is definitely worth it. The shave is smooth and close, and the heated blade adds a touch of luxury. The base is weighted and feels like premium quality, and it charges off a standard shaver socket, which is very convenient. It also has two temperature settings, which is a nice feature, letting you customise the experience. That said, I still think it is overpriced at full cost. While the quality and comfort are excellent, the original price feels a bit steep. If you can grab it on offer, it is a great buy.

Have waited a month before leaving a review and must say this razor has exceeded my expectations.It took my face around a fortnight to get used to this razor and for it to be a great shave but everyone will be different as my skin is sensitive.I’m still using the same original blade after 1 month of daily shaving and I reckon I’ll get another two weeks from the blade going by the blue line on the blade which is exceptional because with my fusion 5 razor blades I was lucky to get ten days so in the long run this razor will pay for itself many times over.There is two heat temperatures to choose from and I prefer the lower heat but again everyone will have their own preference but all in all I get a very smooth shave with no rash so if you’re thinking about purchasing one my opinion would be go for it,you’ll be pleasantly surprised and if you use Gillette razors this one will be so much more cost effective in the long run.

OK, so firstly, being honest, I would NEVER have touched this had it not been on offer. Having said that, I'm kinda glad I took the chance. It seems expensive for what it appears to be, but it works!! The heated strip takes seconds to heat up, and can definitely be felt on the skin. Whether this has any effect is honestly debatable, but it feels good and the shave is very very close. Easily outdoing the multitudes of electric shavers STILL trying to be as effective as a wet shave! The blades are a touch pricey, but they do seem to retain their sharpness for longer. It's such a tough one. "Standard" wet razors are way cheaper than this one, but most good electric razors are on a par or MORE expensive by far in some instances. If you look at it that way, I'd say this is worth the outlay..... But try to find it on offer! I've kept it and I love it.

The heating strip feels really good on the skin and is definitely not a gimmick. Could do with it being hotter though. Version 2 needs real temp control. Blades are sharp and last long as you would expect from Gillette. Handle feels high quality and sturdy so should last a while. Battery lasts about 7-10 days so pretty decent but charging takes several hours. If your on the fence about buying this I would say it’s actually not a gimmick and makes shaving every morning a pleasure rather than a chore. Highly recommended.

Well, I got this barely 3 years ago and just a few weeks ago it died all of a sudden. Called Gillette support who basically washed their hands off and offered a £20 discount for buying this piece of junk again. Never again as there are too many far better alternatives. These greedy corporations are just churning out substandard cheap products and slap crazy prices on them and when they die just after the warranty period, they couldn't care less about customer service. Same thing happened with Bose as their quality has gone down in recent years and just make disposable but expensive garbage. Goodbye and good riddance Gillette!

Any bloke of an age who loves shaving stuff will have gone through all the gillette razors as they were released and each one certainly was better, Mach 5 better than Mach 3 for example. This new Gillette Labs shouldn't bring anything new to the industry but it does. It is by far the closest shave of any of their modern day products and the heated element, the new tech which should be a gimmick, isnt. It is actually awesome on the face. Somehow soothing and warming and really makes a difference. If its too expensive for you fair enough. If you love your shaving and think it expensive, that's all true, but for me it's worth every penny as its the best modern day razor and blade I've ever experienced. Good know how the heated blade makes such a difference to a shave, but it damn well does, try it for yourself.
