Worked well at first......
on July 17, 2017
Posted by: waterpro
Gender:Male
I purchased the PT710 as a back up budget shaver. I usually shave with a razor but sometimes a shaver is just the thing when you need to run out the door quickly and need a touch up.
It seemed like a decent little unit. I wanted a corded shaver as I find the cordless ones do not last long when used as infrequently as I shave with one.
It worked well at first, but after less than a year (of use once a week or less) the motor became slow and the unit just would not shave any more.
It has been cleaned regularly as per the instructions so this is not an issue.
I am rather disappointed that it would wear out this fast.
Since it is out of warranty anyway, I decided to take it apart to see if it could be fixed easily. No such luck, the motor is not reparable.
Quality just is not what it used to be.

Pros: fits in the hand well. no batteries to charge.
Cons: poor quality not what i would expect from philips
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great value for the price

The price was very reasonable. The shaver felt light, which usually means poor performance. Instead to my great and pleasant surprise, the shaver does the job. Quickly and quietly.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Excellent

I have a thick beard growth with sensitive skin and this shaver does a great job. There seems to be no need for a sideburns trimmer. This shaver is excellent value for money.
I would recommend this to a friend!
