Customer Rating: Summary: Wow.. what a shaver Comment: The fact that you can hold this under tap water to clean it is alone a great feature. But there is so much more, including the way it shaves your face without pulling on your beard even if it is long (most times for me). It also has a nice battery indicator screen and notifies you when you need to clean the thing. The battery lasts forever, seriously it is sometimes hard to believe how long it lasts.. buy this shaver, it is awesome. Customer Rating: Summary: Best Shaver I've Used So Far Comment: I'm almost 59 years old and have been using an electric shaver (almost always Norelco) since I started shaving at 13. I've been using this shaver for about a month. I find it gives me a much closer shave than my previous Norelco and is much faster to boot. I seem to average about 4 minutes for a shave. The display indicates 85 minutes of shaving on a full charge. When I got down to 7 minutes the display then rapidly counted down to zero, curious. The charging cord now has a small transformer lump on the outlet side making it bulkier than the cord only arrangement on my old Norelco. While a nice zippered case is provided for the shaver, there is no provision for packing the charger cord. The included stand seems a little flimsy. The manual warns not to keep the shaver plugged into the charger continuously or battery life would be shortened. The manual further warns that the shaver should be charged no longer than 1 hour after the initial 4 hour charge. I don't know why there couldn't be an electronic circuit to limit the charge without having to worry about causing battery damage. Cleaning the head is a simple matter of rinsing under hot water. I admit that I'm a hopeless techie and I do enjoy the digital display however if you wanted to save $50 you could get the model without it and still have much of the same functionality.
Bear in mind that satisfaction with a particular shaver is very subjective and variable. I have a moderately coarse beard and no significant ingrown hairs. My ethnicity is east European Ashkenazim. Your experience may vary. Customer Rating: Summary: smooth shave Comment: I purchased this razor for my husband and he loves it. Gives a very close shave for smooth skin, lasts forever and has a big display. Customer Rating: Summary: A great razor with nice options. Comment: I really like this razor. This razor avoids a lot of the useless options and has many useful ones (like the lcd display with battery life - which is very nice if you travel often like I do). It shaves well and comes with a hard travel protective case (good for travel as well). If you can find it at a great price, buy it.
