I should know. Being a good Brit (Wilkinson actually used to make swords for the gentry!) I bought any number of Wilkinson razors and naturally switched to their power wet razors. I had always eyed up Gillette's razors but I was deterred by the higherprice. Fortunately, I got a Gillette Fusion Power razor as a Christmas present and I've never looked back. Unlike Wilkinson's razors, it looks and sounds like it means business. It shaves well, the batteries last much longer and the whole package comes across as a well designed product that does what it promises. The razor is beautifully balanced: a triumph of design and engineering. The colours are bright and cheerful and the motor sounds like it is rugged enough to go on and on. Considering what punishment it will receive coping with steam, water and foam, that's important. The only down side is the price. You can sometimes buy the razors on special offer, but the blades are twice the price of Wilkinson's (in excess of £2 per blade).
Come on Gillette. Reduce the price of the blades and you've got me forever.................
