I've used a few Philips shavers over the years and occasionally another brand. In the end I always go back to Philips as these shavers are good quality.
The lights indicating how much charge left in the battery is very useful, the shaver can be used dry or wet or even in the shower if you so choose. Easy to clean under the tap and it gives a good shave. What more can you ask for? An improvement over my last Phillips shaver which was about 13 to 15 years old. I highly recommend this shaver.
I have a small problem, miniscule even as life's problems go. From time to time, perhaps every 5 years, I have purchased myself an up-to-date Philips shaver to replace my then serving No. 1 machine. But not because there was anything wrong really with No. 1; more of a whim thing, something attractive about the newest shape, a livelier colour than No. 1 perhaps, but not because No. 1 wasn't doing the core job. It was thus that I bought a new Series 3000 shaver recently.
So what, you ask, is my miniscule problem? Simply this: I cannot bring myself to throw away working machinery. The net result is that I now own three or four fully-functioning Philips razors going back perhaps 15 years, which are crowding my limited drawer space and raising my wife's blood pressure. Does anyone else experience the same inability to part in a definitive way with their Philips shavers, machines that in my experience, never die.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My Remington was getting old so I decided to replace it with the Philips 3800. From the first day that I used it I have been completely satisfied. The shave is very close, almost as good as a blade. I'll happily recommend this product
