I love the 9000 series shaver. It has great performance and I like the self cleaning and charging that comes with it. The only thing that I believe can be improved is that the speed change switches often get bumped through usage and I have to reset to my setting. This is a small matter. Overall I love the shaver.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Don't Waste Your Money on SmartClean!

This is my 3rd Norelco. I'll probable never get another brand. The 9000 series is great and shaves exceptionally well when you use a pre-shave (I use "Lectric Shave", it's just as good as more expensive pre-shaves), keep the blades clean, and replace blades every year (MINIMUM! - I go for every 6 months). The SmartClean system is a disaster!!! Spend your $$ on the shaver without the SmartClean added. It has never worked, it's an awkward design, it has a mind of its own, and the replacement fluid is expensive.
Doesn't cut very well .Very expensive . Be cautious-it can nip you. I cannot tell if the fancy charging- cleaning system does any good . The instruction manual is poorly written , difficult to understand , illustrations faint ,small ,and don't match the text .
THE SHAVER IS EXTREMELY QUIET, CUTS VERY CLOSE FOR A SMOOTH LONG LASTING SHAVE. SHAVER DESIGN IS GREAT FOR EASY HANDLING. SMART CLEAN SYSTEM IS OUTSTANDING. REALLY CLEANS AND CHARGES SHAVER. GREAT PLACE TO KEEP SHAVER HEADS SAFE. I ALSO LIKE THAT IT LUBRICATES SHAVER.
The shaver is the best one I had. My old one did not work as well anymore so I got this one glad I it . shave is excellent& features are good For the price it is a excellent shaver. I would tell anyone to get it
I have had and used exclusively Norelco razors for more than 65 years. the last two that I bought were wet or dry and the closeness of the shave went way down. I am sending this one back and buying new cutters for my old one and hope for the best.
