    No, I've just got a Venus Passion. I'd be afraid of cutting myself, also a vibrating razor just sounds a bit dodgy. Another thing, I'm not too keen on the whole battery power/electrics in the bathroom thing, a lot of water in a bathroom!

    I bought a Mach 3 Turbo Power Extreme (whatever they're calling it these days) with a little battery in it for vibro-action. It made no discernible difference to my shave, and is more bulky than the normal Mach 3.

    A battery isn't a problem in a bathroom, an electrical appliance is more risky. (You can touch a battery with no harm, but you wouldn't put your fingers in a socket).

    Best shave of my life. I've actually got 4 others for when they go bad. But from experience of 2 others, don't leave the razor in the shower and dry it off else the connection with the battery goes bad and it doesn't work. But oh its so cute and the handle has a great feel. My legs were so smooth and it doesn't irrate the bikini areal like it usually does.

    The wife reliably tells me that the best razor she's used is the Mach 3.

    And there's no VAT on men's razors- unlike those for women. Hoorah!

    They aren't really. The razor is only about $9 and the blades are $9 for a pack of 4. Thats the same price as nearly all other razors out there.

    Venus = evil.

    Mach 3 tbh :heart:.

    Although my sister keeps stealing it, so I have to spend lots on blades ;(. Last longer than ladies ones do, though, and better shave, like.

    Manda, lovely, remember that you live in that weird America place where things are priced different ;p.

    Oh Ed would be pissy to know that, the m3 turbo and blades are a buck more than mine :p

    On the topic of razors, I found one today that had 5 blades, and one in the back side for hard to get hair. 6 blads. Thats just discusting overkill :( I cried when I saw it.
