I have been using it for awhile because the Sunday papers had store coupons for a free Quattro awhile ago. It works well, but it does remind me of the old Saturday Night Live skit:

Gillette Brings MACH3 to Market,
But Will People Rush to Buy It?
By MARK MAREMONT
Staff Reporter of THE WALL STREET JOURNAL

Back in 1975, "Saturday Night Live" spoofed Gillette Co.'s Trac II razor with a triple-bladed product it dubbed TripleTrac. Gillette marketers still wince at the parody's slogan: "Because you'll believe anything."

Tuesday Gillette really did shift to a three-bladed razor, christened the MACH3.
More trivia: when you get your razor in the mail, note that the guy on the box is Survivor's Colby.
