Works good. Aesthetically eh. - Reviewed on 2008-08-20

I've been using it for eight months, now. It's quiet and comfortable. Produces a close shave without too much work.

Not that I care, but aesthetically, this razor looks cheap compared to previous Norelcos that I've owned. The translucent plastic across the front doesn't really seem to match nor fit with the rest of the unit. It looks tacked-on.

I'm bad about leaving my razor behind when I travel, so I keep one in my travel kit and swap them every time I charge the one at home. As an experiment, I purchased a similarly-priced Braun at the same time I got this one. The Norelco does a *far* better job than the other one.

Enough difference that I'm here today to purchase a second one of these.

Recommended. (One star off for being ugly)

BEST EVER! - Reviewed on 2008-08-02

OWNED MANY ELECTRIC RAZORS AND THIS IS THE BEST I EVER HAD. LONG LASTING CHARGE,GOOD SHAVE AND COMFORTABLE TO USE.

Nice but needs a low battery indicator - Reviewed on 2008-07-27

I have used several of these Norelco shavers over the past 30 years. My last one held up for nearly eight years. Compared to all my previous models, I was immediately impressed by how quiet this one is, yet it still gets the job done. I find other styles of shaver don't cut as close, at least not on my face. The only thing I do not care for is that I have no idea when the battery is low becuase there is no low battery indicator, like there was on my old one. Also, I like that this one can be rinsed out and cleaned under running water. So, on the plus side: it's quiet, it works well and is easy to clean. But minus one star for the possiblity that I might be caught one day on a weekend trip without the charger and the battery quits on me.

wait a sec. definitely not a 4.5 star. - Reviewed on 2008-06-11

Out of the box, this was a disappointment. The motor was weak and it barely shaved any of my moustache. When I turned this on, it honestly felt and sounded like another shaver that's at 5% battery level. I was beginning to think that mine was just a defect but then decided against doing anything because the rotary type did not seem to be a good fit for me. I don't have a thick beard, and the shape of the shaver doesn't work well for cutting above the mouth hair.

this looks ok, but it feels light and cheap.

WOW! - Reviewed on 2008-06-05

When you open the box your first reaction may be that it's cheap because it's plastic. Once you get over that and focus on the reason for purchasing the product (its shaving abilities) you'll find that this shaver is quite impressive.

I've been using a razor all my life because electric shavers just couldn't compare with the closeness a razor provides.

This razor changed my opinion forever. What a great shaver! I provides me with the close shave I demand without skin irritation.

Since it's rechargeable I can take it with me and the charge lasts about 1 week. One thing I found surprising is that the shaver just stopped while I was shaving with no warning. It doesn't slow down as the battery drains like you'd expect...it just stops. Keep that in mind and put it on the charger after a few days to keep this from happening.

One improvement suggestion: It needs to have a low battery warning indicator.

I highly recommend this shaver.
