Wilkinson Xtreme 3

Anyone using Wilkinson Sword (or Schick) Xtreme 3? Is it any good? I'm looking for something a bit cheaper to replace Mach 3. I think Xtreme 3 looks kind of similar to Mach 3.

By the way, they have a sly guy on their product page:

Sly Red:
I have the Schick Xtreme 3 razor, but use it on my face only.  The Xtreme 3 razor with changeable blades is difficult, but not impossible, to get in the United States.  Once I use up all my blades I'll probably discontinue it from my shaving arsenal in favor of the Mach 3.

D.A.L.U.I.:
I could only get the disposable and it was used once, enough said.  Don't know if the Personna M5 is available there, but it's my weapon of choice now.  If not try the Fusion, I used the non-power since I couldn't see any difference.  You wind up with a lot of shaving gear in your drawer at the first finding what works best for you.

Iconic:
I haven't seen M5 anywhere here yet, but after hearing so much good about it, I must try it when possible. Still looking for alternatives... I suppose Wilkinson/Schick is not that popular and therefore hard to come by. Gillette is the word and they are always pushing their latest product so aggressively that it's difficult to find anything else. Waiting for that M5.

Hook'Em:
I used to use the Xtreme 3 when I first started. The main thing I liked about it was the flexibility of the blades. I have a couple of ridges on the top sides of my head that the blades would bend around pretty good. Then again if I didn't hit the ridge just right it would take a bit of skin with it. Im on the M5 now and really like it. Used the headblade with the sensor blades before that.
