great feel in your hand

razor is easy to use and gives a very very close shave.It is also very easy to clean. Charging is easy and the countdown on the time you have left before another charge is great. It only takes me four to five minutes to shave. That's just great. Thanks again.
I would recommend this to a friend!

great upgrade to my previous Norelco triple header

Read mixed reviews about battery not holding charge - but after nearly a year, the shaver has been working great. Battery holds charge for weeks at a time even with every day use. Very light, travels well, and trimmer works great in all the nooks and crannies of an aging face. Cleans up pretty easily with hot water - much easier than my previous Norelco. Highly recommend! Pricey but worth it! Not sure the model with the electronic cleaner is really necessary.
Pros: clean shave in tight places, nice feel in hand

fairly good - still not the same as a (regular) razor

I've used electrics my whole life, but always "finish" the shave with a regular razor. No matter what the design, there's always some patches left behind. This razor is one of the best I've ever used (including other models of Norelco), so I give it a thumbs up. It is quiet, charges quickly, keeps its charge, and does a pretty good job at even 4-5 day old stubble.
Pros: quick charge, comfortable in your hand, travels well
Cons: a bit difficult to clean, doesn't get all the stubble off
I would recommend this to a friend!

The shaver takes about 3-4 weeks for your beard and face to become accustom too. It provides a clean close shave and is easy to maintain. The flexable heads allow it to gently shave the heavier bearded areas without any painful or discomforting experiences.
The only negatives I have experienced so far is the side trimmer. It is too narrow to provide that clean even cut across your side burns.
Also, the battery life seems to get shorter & shorter between charges after only a couple of months usage.
Pros: smooth shave gentle on face & easy to maintain
Cons: sideburn trimmer is way to narrow, battery life between charges
I would recommend this to a friend!

In the 40 years that I have been using a electric shaver, without question this is the best electric shaver that I have owned. The shave is exceptional and the trimmer works great.
