Not so much, razor is slow and takes long to shave

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The razor is slow and it takes a long time to shave. The USB charging takes long and when it is done, there doesn't seem to be much power, the razor moves to slow across my face and takes nearly twice as long as my old Philips corded razor. I'm not happy with this purchase. It seems like the cutting disc are not very sharp! Don't want to replace them already just having purchasing this razor. Philips needs to step up and re-place the razor, I believe this isn't what I had expected!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi Allie,
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We’d like to try our best to improve your experience. If your Philips shaver isn't performing as well as it once did, charging it for 24 hours and removing and thoroughly cleaning the shaving heads can help restore its optimal performance. Preparation is key for a close and comfortable shave, free of hassle. We recommend cleaning your shaver after each use and keeping the battery charged. Additionally, remove and clean the shaving heads every month. A low battery or dirty heads can affect performance, so regular maintenance is crucial.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'VE NEVER BEEN A FAN OF ELECTRIC SHAVERS. I FIRST TRIED IN MY TEENS AND I GOT A RASH ON MY NECK. HAVE BEEN USING CREAM AND A RAZOR SINCE. I HAVE LIGHT BEARD AND SINCE I RETIRED I ONLY SHAVE A COUPLE OF TIMES A WEEK. IT'S LESS HASSLE SO, I DECIDED TO TRY ELECTRIC AGAIN. I CHOSE THIS MODEL FOR THE PRICE MOSTLY. IT DOES A GOOD JOB BUT IF I HAD TO SHAVE EVERY DAY I THINK I WOULD SPEND MORE AND UPGRADE.
Not effective on the neck area. Irritates skin. I m not used to reverse shaving and rotate shavers removes hair 360 so I m getting boils.

A product ought to have all parts necessary for initial use. Selling a shaver without a way to recharge without having to make another purchase is unacceptable.

Used this shave less than wo years and it worked well until the latch that holds down the shaver head popped out and will not stay in. I am using a rubber band to keep the shaver closed
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The shaver works great, smooth close shave for the price of replacement blades. Unfortunately the pop up trimmer only works if I have a single hair and I hit it several times.
