I've bought and returned 3 or 4 of these for the same issue. I'll be shaving my neck and it just quits on me before I can even get to my facial hair. Other than that, it's s great shaver.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

It’s not as great as they lead you to believe. However, my reason for buying it was to help knock down the hair before shaving. This thing doesn’t give a close enough shave but helps me to get there. I also have their head shaver which I really like and also saves me a lot of time.
I've been razor shaving for 35+ years and decided to try an electric rotary razor, for ease of shaving. I bought this razor due to the Remington name (I have other products) and the Lifetime Warranty. I've had it a week now and every shave is irritating my skin near my nose and on my neck -- so I tried using Electra Shave pre-shave and it seems to reduce, but not eliminate, the irritation. I've reduced the pressure I apply and that seems to help also, but still not eliminate it. I may try using shaving lotion and see if that helps. The razor appears to be well made and I was happy to see that the charger is included, and not just a charge cord like so many other razors.
