[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Like my brother told me, will never cut closer than a blade. However, side burn and nose trimmer are excellent. Battery charge, fantastic. Easy clean. I use it twice a week as a pre-shave before blade.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this razor, the cut is pretty smooth, and the battery life is excellent. The cleaning pod is utterly useless. It doesn't clean like my 8000 series pod. The most useful thing I miss is the drying and how it smelled in the 8000 series. That was an excellent function, and I have no clue why that function was removed.
I have had this model ( Philips Norelco Wet & Dry Shaver Series 9000 Shaver 9400) for about 1 1/2 years. It is very loud during brushing. Even at the lowest level! I don’t recommend the 9000 series at all for the price of the product.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So much nicer than my old shaver. It was a Phillips/Norelco too, & I'd used it for probably 8 years or more. That one was pulling hairs more & more, so rather than invest in new heads, I figured I'd try an upgrade. Night & day difference. Even 4 day growth is no problem for the new shaver, & it's a much closer shave with no irritation & no more missed spots I have to work at. Quite impressed. Now, if it'll last as long as the last one.............
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] While I absolutely love the razor, my low star rating totally relates to the app. I'm unable to get the razor and the app to talk to each other on a consistent basis. To a point where I've actually removed the app. But I do have a wonderful razor
I would recommend this to a friend!
