Hey DeepSouthPrep, in my opinion iv used both the hydro 5 and the fusion pro glide. They are both really great razors to use. I have not tried the dollar shave razor yet, but, i hear mixed reviews from some reliable sources. The hydro 5 is cheaper than the pro glide but that does not make it a cheaply made razor if you catch my drift, it just means its more affordable and the replacement razors arfe cheaper as well, the proglide is a really nice razor i like the way it feels in my hand, as far as razor life span, I usually buy a new pack of blades every two weeks and i shave every day, with the proglide the blades did not last as long. I used to use a mach 3 and had the same problem. The blades on the hydro 5 are much wider than the pro glide and can take a little getting use to. so, its really a matter of what you prefer, i dont think there is one perfect razor out there because everyone has their own opinion, you can always buy a hydro 5 and the dollar shave razor, try all three at the same time and then decide which one is better for you. That actually would be fun to do. I hope this helps you out, good luck on you first big shave day buddy!
