New Quattro is better than M3

mkoesel · 01-12-2009, 09:29 AM

Still early - but it looks like Schick has a the real deal with the Quattro Power. Four Blades, Prep strip stretches the skin, Screw Cap, Shower safe.

The Quattro retails for $16.79.

Help me out - why should I spend $17.39 on the Gillette M3 Power ???

ihyln · 01-12-2009, 09:31 AM

haha I see what you did there

The Quattro is heavier therefore more strain in my right arm.
The M3 is lighter and easier to control.

Sounds familiar.

Cab5er · 01-12-2009, 09:35 AM

Look at that widebody kit on the quattro

makes the m3 look so dated

alpineweissM3 · 01-12-2009, 09:36 AM

Yeah, but an M3 will always be an M3.

A Quattro is just a Schick.

KonigsTiger · 01-12-2009, 09:44 AM

Hahaha!! Pretty good.

Would someone tell me how this happened? We were the f@#$ng vanguard of shaving in this country. The Gillette Mach3 was the razor to own. Then the other guy came out with a three-blade razor. Were we scared? Hell, no. Because we hit back with a little thing called the Mach3Turbo. That's three blades and an aloe strip. For moisture. But you know what happened next? Shut up, I'm telling you what happened—the bastards went to four blades. Now we're standing around with our cocks in our hands, selling three blades and a strip. Moisture or no, suddenly we're the chumps. Well, f$#k it. We're going to five blades.

rawedge2 · 01-12-2009, 10:18 AM

the quattro has a 1 up.. the FUSION model..

The M3 needs a CSL model..

kmac1980 · 01-12-2009, 10:25 AM

actually the shave doesnt compare to the wet shaves, but its a cool looking gadget!

so I guess this makes it the 7 series, luxurious, huge but quick

Ironring Racing · 01-12-2009, 10:49 AM

Is it just me, or is the series 7 just completely phalic, I mean they might as well called it the series Ron Jeremy.

And the quattro, looks nice from the outside, but as soon as you start to shave with it, it understeers like a mofo, I can't make corner 1 by my sideburns. It's all that weight up front from the 4 blades. The 3 blade M3 is just much better balanced, I can drift around my chin all day!

Some recent R&D photos have lead some to believe an M model may follow...should enhance the performance
