The NEW norelco series 9000 is harder to and more time consuming to keep clean. It does not contour to the face or cut as close as the1280x models. Only recommend because of rotary blade design.
Pros: rotary design
Cons: very hard to clean, no stand to store razor
I would recommend this to a friend!

Best shaver to date!

I've been a loyal customer to Norelco shavers for 30+ years. I have been upgrading them every 2 to 3 years, when the battery finally dies on me. This S9000 is a little over 2 years, with the same blades, and it shaves just as good as it did day 1. Battery life is still over 2 weeks of usage and still gives me that smooth shave. The best part is the cleaning/charging unit. I think this is why my shaver has lasted like it has. I wish/hope all Norelco shavers comes with the self cleaning unit. It makes a world of difference from older shavers that I have used. Just set the shaver in the unit, hit the power button, and let it do its thing. Very easy and simple. A lot better than taking the shaving heads apart and cleaning them yourself. I love this S9000 and will definitely buy it again, or an upgrade as long as it comes with the cleaning unit. I HIGHLY recommend this shaver! You just can't go wrong with it.
Pros: long battery life, self cleaning charging unit, excellent shaving blades
Cons: nothing that i can think of
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have had previous Norelco razors, top of the line ones. this one beats them all. I can get the closest shave, and it I guess depending on your beard, it could last a day or two or more. the cleaning system is very quite, hardly know its on.
Cons: seperate trimmer not very convenient, sometime difficult to change heads
I would recommend this to a friend!

This is an amazing upgrade from a razor blade

Well this is a great product. I've used for the 40 days that were recommended. Granted my skin is still getting used to using this shaver and I'm still learning on how to get the best out of the hard angles.
Truthfully I have super sensitive skin. My first approach using this shaver was to press really hard onto my skin and that got the job done with some skin irritation. You can get the same job done without applying much pressure.
That all being said below my neck for some reason it is hard to get a perfect super smooth shave but my technique is definitely improves everytime I use it.
I must mention that the self cleaning, wet and dry shave features make this shaver an amazing adder to my grooming arsenal.
At last I'd like to mention that I've use it both in wet and dry. Wet you are going to need some sort of shaving cream or soap. I;ve always use soap and rise it constantly.
I use it dry during the week on my way to work on the car and I get to work with a perfect shave. (priceless)
Pros: much better than a razor blade
Cons: sometimes my skin irritates
I would recommend this to a friend!

After playing with several foil and rotary shavers, it's pretty apparent that the rotary ones are far superior in all respects. I put this shaver up against the primary foil shaver's equivalent model and it was a no- brainer. The shave of the Norelco was closer, quieter, more vibration-free and generally a better experience. I can shave with the foil shaver and then re-shave with the Norelco and remove a considerable amount of stubble that the foil shaver missed.
Pros: super close shave., good feel in hand., quiet & vibration free.
Cons: can't think of one.
I would recommend this to a friend!
