5.0 out of 5 stars the original 2 blade system that kicked of the saga now at 5 blades. This is still my favorite., December 22, 2006

I have had the original Sensor for almost 12 years now, and it still works the best of the ones i have tried. The Sensor 3 blades nick me up more, the Mach 3 again tends to nick me up more as well, and any of the store brand replacement heads for this Sensor just do not work out as well as the original sensor/sensor XL heads. The two blades seem to give me the closest shave without irritation, and after 12 years that alot of shaving. Don't waste money on more expensive newer models, if you have this one or can get this one, blades are cheaper and it does better.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simply the Best, January 31, 2009

The Sensor Excel is hands down the best razor I have ever used in my life. I have been using it over 10 years now and still it's the perfect razor. I one time bought Sensor replacement cartridges and they are excellent but the Sensor Excel cartridges are definitely much better. I have tried Gillette's newer razors - Mach3, Fusion - and they are OK but I wouldn't want them for daily shaving. But the Sensor Excel is amazing. Whether I have very little stubble or a few days growth, this razor shaves PERFECTLY smooth, EVERY time. Even when the blades are dull, this razor shaves better than most razors with most new blades. In my experience, everyone I know either loves or hates this razor, but many love it, and those of us who love it don't want anything else, ever. I will be very angry at Gillette if they do away with this razor (and I think they have). If that happens, I will buy a Panasonic wet/dry shaver and never use a blade again.

5.0 out of 5 stars A good, safe and solid razor, October 8, 2008

You know I don't know what the heck with all this Gillette Mach-3, Schick Quattro and Gillette Fusion razors. Those razors are dangerous and too sharp. The Gillette Sensor razor is a balanced razor that is safe, shaves close and does not take your skin off having too many blades on one cartridge. I use it to shave my head and I don't feel a thing. I only feel the soft comfort of the blades cutting the few hairs on my head.

I'm glad Gillette kept the Sensor on the market being just a 2-blade razor. I will always stay loyal to this razor for shaving my head because it is safe, easy to use and it does not cut your skin off like the Mach-3, Schick Quattro and Fusion razors. I don't like those razors because for one they are too sharp. I used a Mach-3 and I cut myself while I was shaving my head and I bled for 2 whole hours. Therefore I'm sticking with th Gillette Sensor. The Gillette Sensor is a much, much balanced razor than those suicide Mach-3's Schick Quattro and Fusion razors that will cut you to shreds.
