    Best razor, hands down. I don't get ingrown hairs, it's very easy to use, gentle and gives a close shave.

    I bought this after hearing great reviews from a friend, but I totally disagree with her. It left me with a stubbly feeling afterwards, and a bit of razor burn too, which I rarely get. Don't get this, it's so not worth it. I recommend Quattro instead, it's so much better!

    I love this razor! It is by far the best razor that I have tried. It makes my legs so smooth and silky feeling. It normally just takes one stroke of the razor to achieve a smooth shave. I very rarely get razor cuts, burns or bumps and the cartridges last for many uses. When I do need to replace the cartridge, I simply push a lever up on the back of the razor and the cartridge pops off easily. I then reach into my handy storage compartment and take a replacement cartridge out and pop it right on to the top of the razor until I hear a little snap. The storage compartment not only holds the refills, it holds the razor as well. I just snap it on to the front cover when I am done and forget about it until next time.

    It hits the right spots and leaves my legs feeling softer than they've ever been.

    I love this razor! The five blades make quick work of course hair. I don't have to go over the same spot more than once, so no mare razor burn.

    I don't like the price of this razor, or the refills, but the effectiveness is awesome. I really like the moisturizing strip on the razor, it helps cut down on razor burn for me.

    I normally would not spend this much on a razor, but I recieved it as a gift. It worked great on my legs and bikini line, but not so well on my armpits. My boyfriens was impressed that my legs stayed amooth for 2 days (they're usually stubby after a day). Great razor, just a bit pricey.

    This 5-bladed razor is amazing. When I first held the package and looked at the razor from outside, the blue moisturizing strip surrounding the razor head seemed like just an appealing decoration, and the grip looked rock hard, but when I actually opened the prouduct I realized that I was wrong...I see that the razor simply sat on the shower pod. Easy to lift the razor up from it's seat, and simple to place back.

    The grip was NOT rock hard, in fact, it was pretty fun to hold and squish the flexible grips on the handle. The colors were very summery and it just makes you feel good. The razor head can be removed easily by pushing a small button-- it just pops out!

    When I actually used Embrace, despite reviews mentioning the razor head being so large it became awkward to use, it isn't true. The size is perfect and when used with any amount of shaving foam, glides incredibly smoothly thanks to the thick moisturizing strips, while removing every single hair. What can I say? Venus Embrace is THE PERFECT RAZOR.

    Just an update- 4 years later and I'm still using the same razor. I haven't even had to replaced to handle, I only ever needed to replace the blades.
