How good is the shave?

It is perfect for my light whiskers: comfortable and close. The battery lasted and lasted for me.

Prior to purchasing this shaver, I have used several shavers of various brands and prices. None have given me the comfortable shave I am getting from this one. I have used this shaver with both a day growth and several days growth. Just and comfortable and never any pull, even after several days growth. Not only is it comfortable to use, but is very quiet. By far, the best shaver for the price I have ever owned.

I would say depending on your skin type. Since the shaver has 4 blades shaving feels bladey. If you have sensitive skin may result in irritation unless you use it during bathing perhaps. Functionality it should work.

No. Its not sharp enough, you won't get a good shave, but it will have you thinking, why did I waste my money????

Can you tell me how this shaver performs? It is a bit pricey, and there are only two reviews on Amazon's product page, one not even by the user, but by his wife. How does it do getting the hairs on the neck? I often suffer from razor burn on my neck, and also am getting tired of having to rotate my 6 yold Norelco (battery is also dying) in circular patterns several times over the same spots to get a close shave..

The shaver will actually tell you when you need to clean it. i always clean it when it goes from 100% power to 40% power. That way, it seems to give me the best shave

I agree with Toby - once my face got "broken in" I find that it gives a great shave with no irratation. The cleanign fluid ended up lasting 45 days with daily use (cleaned with econ setting each time). Only once did it require a cleaning at the longest duration, and that was because I had taken it on a 5 day vacation without the cleaning base. For the record, I don't use any pre shave ltion like Toby. No need to. It shaves close and smooth withtout it for me.

It qualifies to me. I love the razor. There isn't much vibration. I had to change the foil once and blades. The first one irritated my skin. The 2nd was better quality and I'm rating it satisfactory.

wish I could help directly...I only use it for my every other day save and to trim side burns and soul patch. In general I get a close facial shave without any razor burn or irritation. Compared to my previous iterations of Norelco shavers (think this is my 4th), it is much much lighter and quieter.

I can only tell you thyat I paid $200- for the one I bought and the shave it gives me is very poor. I constantly look like I last shaved 24 hours ago. They said it takes about 4 weeks to get used to the shaver but I've been using it over 2 months.

I haven't shaved my head with it, I wouldn't try it with my skill level yet, but shaving the face is very nice and easy. I bought the Derby half blade 100 pack for about $6 or you can break regular double edges in half and I can usually find those at any rite aid type pharmacy.

It's a good razor. It took my face about a month to get acclimated to using an electric razor.

Hard to say, as I just left it on the charger since i opened it and use it everyday. I can tell you that i like the shave I get and most of all it is a quite unit compared to what I used in the past, also comfortable in the hand, not real bulky.

It works great on the private areas, no nicks but a nice close shave. one of the best shavers I've ever had for shaving any area of the body. works good on men or women as mine has been used by both.

This razor is a much better razor than the double or quintuple bladed kind both in terms of cost and quality of shave. this is especially true if you use a shaving brush and shaving soap, these will improve the glide and decrease irritation, this decrease in irritation will result in fewer problems for the skin. It must be noted that at first there is some learning curve and some small cuts are possible, but with attention and experience you will be able to avoid all these issues. I would never return to cartridge shaving, this is cheaper and better.

Yes, and it shaves quite well. My objection is that the on/off switch is so "conveniently" placed that my thumb tends to turn it off while I'm shaving- I have to avoid the switch while I'm shaving. Mark

For the last couple of years I have been using the Gillette Mach 3 daily during my morning shower to shave my head and face and have to say for me it does the trick. Like lots of active blokes I have scars and bumps to deal with and as long as I don't rush I get a clean shave each time.
