Product Description

Norelco 6853XL Reflex Plus Rechargeable Cord/Cordless Men's Shaving System
Amazon.com

One of the most well-appointed Norelco Reflex Plus models, this shaver delivers a clean, comfortable shave made even more convenient by high-speed charging time. The Reflex Plus design combines a multi-directional flexible surface and individually floating heads for contour-hugging action. Like other Norelco shavers, this one uses Lift and Cut technology to gently raise whiskers then cut them cleanly for a super smooth, below-the-skin shave. Conveniently designed for corded or cordless use, the shaver produces 30 minutes of shave time on just a 1-hour charge and 3 minutes on a 6-minute quick charge. Two LED indicators help you gauge the battery's juice.

Handsomely finished in a platinum casing, the shaver has helpful structural details like a built-in hair chamber and full-width pop-up trimmer. Automatic worldwide voltage adaptability and a sturdy travel pouch make it easy to take on the road, while a protective razor head cap and cleaning brush simplify maintenance. Norelco backs it with a 60-day satisfaction guarantee and a two-year warranty. --Emily Bedard

Didn't last long... - Reviewed on 2008-11-15

Gave this as a gift to my elderly father-in-law. It lasted about a month, and would no longer run. It is made kind of cheap with plastic, and he may have cleaned it with alcohol or something similar that melted the plastic..

This is a very low end Norelco razor that I would not recommend. It is not compatable with other Norelco accessories, such as cutting heads, chargers, etc.
Perfectly fine for the price - Reviewed on 2007-06-11

As noted, you just change the blades every year or so to get "like new" performance. I actually get about 18 months out of them, but I do not have a very heavy beard. I like the fact that you can leave it plugged in and not damage the battery. As with many folks here, I get 8-9 shaves per charge. I always let it drain almost completely before recharging.

Also: Amazon is the place to get the replacement blades, especially with free shipping. Just can't depend on Walmart, etc. to have them.
Good Shave - For Electric Shaver - Reviewed on 2007-01-04

Convenient to use, good battery life, good shave for an electric shaver, but still not as good as a blade. Also a little hard to use at edges, such as sideburns, under and around nose.
it's a great shaver but doesn't solve the world's problems - Reviewed on 2006-12-10

This is my 3rd Norelco in 15 years, and I've been pleasantly surprised by it. I wasn't expecting the best, given the range of modest complaints and criticisms in these online reviews. Apparently, the availability of the online forum prompts nitpicking like never before; in the end, the razor is an improvement over past models at a great price. Yes, it has a battery that needs recharging. Yes, it is made in China. But in the end, it performs great - close shave, great with long stubble, no problems cleaning up. If you're familiar with older Norelcos, you'll find it a little lighter than before with a substantially better shave. I can't really imagine how a >$100 model could be better.
