The best!, November 30, 2005
This review is from: Gillette Venus Vibrance Soothing Vibrations Razor for Women, 1 Razor (Health and Beauty)
I've used all the Venus women's razors and this is my favorite out of them all. This is the only razor I've used out of the line that hasn't nicked me or cut me or left stray hairs. It leaves my legs smooth!

I bought this why...?, June 10, 2006
This review is from: Gillette Venus Vibrance Soothing Vibrations Razor for Women, 1 Razor (Health and Beauty)
The only reason this razor works--and the only reason I rated it with even 3 stars--is because it's a Venus razor. Venus razors work excellently, so when this new version came out I was excited to try it. I've owned mine for over a year now, and was unimpressed with it from the moment I started using it.
The vibrations are useless; I get the same quality shave whether it's turned on or off. The battery lasted quite a long time, but as soon as I replaced it the razor stopped working properly (not that it mattered, since it didn't do anything in the first place). So not only do we have a "power" razor that has no power, but the company decided to charge even more for replacement razor cartridges. I thought I had to use the corresponding cartridges, but finally I inserted one of the old Venus cartridge heads and it worked exactly the same.
I don't know--maybe I'm just a no-fuss girl who really doesn't notice subtle differences in the quality of leg-shaving. I would recommend Venus brand razors in a heartbeat, but I do NOT recommend this particular version.

broke in 2 months, March 25, 2006

Works well but broke in a couple of months. I think the vibration prevents nicks but the shave isn't as close as when you turn it off. The battery lasted the few months which amazed me.
