[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Works perfectly. Replaced 15 year old Norelco because I couldn’t find replacement blades locally. Plus…replacement blades cost almost half of the price of a new racer. Like the wet/dry feature, I feel I get a closer shave with wet skin.
Comfortable to use, works well and prefer this over foil type shavers. Still have perfectly working 30 year old Philips twin blade Tracer I use as a backup. Doubt I’ll ever own another foil or brand again.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Really a 3 1/2 . I purchased to replace my previous razor (same brand/similar model) I still have my older Norelco which I kept as a back up. The 8 year old razor still will give me a shave for little over 2 weeks per charge and 8 year old blades. I barely get a week and a half with the new razor and no better of a shave. The RPM's on new razor are much slower and noisier. I guess shrinkflation. A little more money and a lot less razor. Sorry but just the facts.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used Norelco electric razors for many years and found them excellent. This new one, however, is very frustrating to use since the cord always falls from the razor while in use. This was mot a problem with older designs. This newer design cord does not secure to the razor. I am ready to throw the thing away and buy another brand.
