If the "Trimmer" was more functional (I have used several older models and their trimmers were great) this would be a Great shaver.
Pros: close shave
Cons: poor trimmer
I would recommend this to a friend!

Was hoping for more, at this price

I appreciate the longer recharge interval. Also like the ease of cleaning. The heads shave closely in general, but the design is marginal for some parts of the face, such as around the mouth. The trimmer is not particularly effective.
Pros: ease of cleaning, recharge time
Cons: sideburn trimmer

Good razor, I would buy again, I have had several months

This gives me the closest shave I've had from an electric razor and I've been shaving for several decades. My skin doesn't respond well to wet shaves so dry works best for me. For me a clean, extremely dry face gets a great shave from this razor. This razor is not for guys that will not clean/rinse it regularly. The heads will truly clog if not rinsed or cleaned regularly. I think the battery last longer than advertized. I'd give this a 4.5 if I could.
Pros: works great on dry skin, battery life is very good
Cons: a slight con. need to rinse/clean regularly
I would recommend this to a friend!

Ergonomics as to how it fits in hand and balance is best I can say about this razor. Motor very weak, requires way to many strokes to get a close shave, and hard to use over curvature or lose skin areas. The trimmer appears to be an afterthought. Too narrow, requires to much pressure to cut, and does not cut evenly. The charging system is too awkward and very difficult to take on a trip. You must take the stand with you as it is needed to plug charger in to. Also the stand is tippy, and often inconvenient to place and remove razor. I've used Norelco's exclusively for over thirty years, and this may be my last. Based upon what I paid for this product I expected a lot more and actually got less than some of the other less expensive Norelco models.
Pros: ergonomics and looks.
Cons: weak motor, difficult to use charger, difficult to get close shave, less than desired trimmer, does not hold charge well
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This is a great product. Highly recommend it.

I am enjoying the razor immensely, although even it does not lift and cut all of my whiskers. I would highly recommend this razor to every man who has a thick beard. Mine grows in every possible direction including in, and nothing can help that completely. I also have some whiskers that are the thickness of mechanical pencil lead. This razor will cut those, thanks to the large holes on the shaving screen. The way that it follows the contours of your face and neck is amazing.
Pros: cuts super thick whiskers, follows facial contour like nothing else before it, easy to clean
Cons: i would like to see a groomer attachment available, pricey
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great shave, clippings make a mess on the counter every time.

Best shave yet by an electric...small shave clippings make a mess every time.
I just got it and haven't had a problem with this yet but the way it recharges by small leads on each make me nervous that they will eventually fail. Would have preferred the chord plug directly into the shaver.
Pros: best closest cleanest shave ever by an electric
Cons: clippings make a bigger mess than my last shaver, hope the charger doesn't fail
I would recommend this to a friend!

A bit too pricey but good product. Too bad the blades last lest than a year because they too are expensive to replace.
Pros: does a good job
Cons: expensive
I would recommend this to a friend!

The best Norelco since the original "Triple-Header"

What I feel makes this Shaver great is it's orbital, triple cutter flexible cutting head, and the ability to clean by rinsing under hot tap water instead of using the cleaning brush to remove the shaving clippings. The trimming cutter is like the ones offered on most other shavers; O.K. for camping or vacations, but for every day use I still prefer my separate beard and mustache trimmer.
Pros: rinse clean under hot tap water.
Cons: like all others it needs a better mustache trimmer
I would recommend this to a friend!
