It light and fits my hand well. The shaver is smooth on my skin. Getting use to the trimmer has taken a little time since my old Norelco had the trimmer on the top. It feels somewhat awkward to use.I like the quietness but since I am hard of hearing, I have to check to make sure it is on. Overall I love it!
So much quieter than my older, corded Norelco rotary shaver. Easy to clean by running under water plus gives a closer shave than my previous Norelco. Very satisfied.
Pros: fast, quiet, easy to clean

My third 4200. First was super great. Second nicked my neck and upper lip. Gave them a second chance with third 4200. As bad as second. Never buying again.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I am not satisfied with razor. I thought by buying the better model I would get a closer shave. Not So. It does not shave as close as my older shaver did. Maybe I got a lemon ? After I shave I can still feel that it was not a close shave.
Am a little disappointed by the fact of the quality of cut. It’s great that it’s a wet dry use however takes longer then planned and has to go over small area multiple times.
I have been using Norelco razors for over 30 years. They always do a great job. I do wish the replacement razors were less expensive. I replace the razors about once a year. Then I buy a razor about ever four years, even though the old one is ok. I then use the old as a backup. I have an extra one at work and beach house.
It runs extremely quiet, which made me think it was not running well, my mistake! It took a little getting used to from my old one, but a nice upgrade.
Pros: quiet, compact, holds charge for a long time
