Gillette Fusion5 Razor and Refills for Men sits in our shaving & hair removal listings, where we rank by how buyers actually rate a product rather than by brand. The manufacturer says: Lasting shave: Gillette’s Fusion5 razor blades for men feature 5 anti-friction blades (Vs Mach3). Get up to 20 comfortable shaves from each Gillette's Fusion5 razor refill. Those are the seller's own claims rather than our testing, so treat them as a starting point. On Amazon it holds 4.7 out of 5 from 464 ratings.

How it compares in Shaving & Hair Removal
Across the 49 rated shaving & hair removal products we track, the typical score is 4.5 out of 5. This one sits at 4.7, which puts it in the upper quarter of the category rather than level with it. Where almost everything is rated well, the gap at the top is small in points and large in practice.
It carries 464 ratings against a category median of 3,907. That is a thin base by the standards of this category, so treat the score as provisional: a handful of extra reviews can still move it either way.
On price it sits in the upper third of a category running from £1.74 to £86.60, where the midpoint is about £11.00. It is priced above the field and rated above it too, so the premium is at least matched by how buyers rate it.
