Very close shave
on October 14, 2017
Posted by: Mike86
Gender:Male
Philips gave me this product to review and it's a great razor. i love how the heads contour to your face and give you a great shave. The cleaning solution takes up a bit of counter space but it's worth it to keep your razor fresh. the razor is very quiet which is nice in the mornings
Pros: really close shave
Cons: counter space
I would recommend this to a friend!

a good shaver

Philips gave me this product to review and after trying a couple of weeks, I am very impressed with it.
It is very easy to grip and does a fantastic job in just a few moves. It won't cut your skin even if pimples present. The part I love the most is that you can just rinse it under the tap water- this is the first wet&dry electric shaver I ever have. It also comes with a cool cleaning station which can also be used as a charging station and a stand. The package also comes with a trimmer which is very useful to me. But you have to pull out the shaving head to put it on. It is not as convenient as my previous Philips shaver which has the trimmer head attached to the body and you just need a push to use it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Verified Purchase:Yes
The product gives a good smooth shave but the design makes the experience frustrating. The - and + buttons that adjust the 3 settings are located where you hold the shaver. This results in the shaver speed changing when your grip accidently presses the - or + button on the front of the shaver.
Pros: good shave
Cons: bad design

Easy to use but difficult to understand beeps
on January 1, 2018

Gender:Male
I bought this expensive shaver. Quality of shave is impressive but shaver itself requires lot of maintenance, it has been one year I bought cleaning liquids more than was written on 3 containers of liquid, replace shaving head and now my shaver is not happy with me and giving annoying beeps all the time in charging/cleaning system. I read all the book but why beeps are coming, I couldn't figure out.
Pros: easy to use good quality of shave
Cons: expensive to maintain.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Quite Razor with Loud Results
on October 11, 2017

Philips gave me the opportunity to try their latest razor and it did not disappoint. It was the quiestest razor that I have ever used in 40 years of shaving. The multi-way worked well together to give all my face contours a cean-close shave. Very few spots did I need to go over again.
The quick rotating heads did a good job the first time around. Using this razor save me precious time in the morning. In order to use the trimmer, I had to detach the razor heads and attach the trimmer for my sideburns. This was easy enough to do but it a little inconvenient. If you need to use the trimmer daily, you may find it annoying but if you need to use it once a week to upkeep your sideburns, then you won't mind. The all-in-one charger and cleaning stand did a great job to keep this razor performing like new. My old razor didn't have the cleaning stand and I feel it would have performed better if it did. This shaver makes me feel good about shaving every morning. I do wish, however, that there was a plastic head protector to protect my investment. If I want to take only the razor without the cord or stand on a short weekend trip, I would hate for the heads to be damaged. All in all, this is one of the best razors I have ever used.

Pros: quiet, multi-way pivoting heads, charger and cleaning stand, long usage time between charges
Cons: have to detach head to attach trimmer, no plastic razor head protector

Works Great

Philips gave me this product to review and I'm impressed with how well it works. The blades do a great job of handling longer hairs compared to other models of Philips shavers I've had in the past.
The sideburn trimmer isn't as convenient to use, as you have to swap the heads, but you get used to it.
Minor things compared to how good the shave is.

Provides a good shave
on October 13, 2017
Posted by: Smac6ca
Philips gave me this product to review and overall the shaver is very good. I have used Philips elected shavers in the past and this is the best shaver yet.
PROS:
The shaver has 3 speeds which I found pretty helpful to use. After a few days growth I found using the fastest speed helped cut though the longer hairs with out and pulling or tugging. I used the slower speed an the more sensitive areas of my neck and did not razor burn.
I the fact that I can clean and charge the shaver with at the same time with base.

CONS:
The shave has a separate trimmer attachment which I find cumbersome to switch in and out verse previous Philips shaver that had a trimmer integrated into the shaver.
The charging and cleaning base takes up a lot of counter space and I don't recommend moving the base in and out of a cupboard. The cleaning solution does not have a valve so it is prone to spilling if you try to move the base.
