I love my new Norelco 4100. Its design and quality are what I have come to expect from Norelco since I have been using them since I was 30. I normally get 10 years out of life out of my shaver and the only reason I bought a new one was the blades were finally going dull and replacements were no longer available. The motor still ran quiet.
I bought this product for my son in high school. I have an older model that I've had for quite awhile. He was so thrilled with the results he wanted me to try it. Now we're both winners! Its everything you've ever wanted in a shave. Smooth, precise and easy to use and maintain. I recommend this shaver whether you are young or old. You can't go wrong with a Phillips!!!
This is the third Philips Norelco shaver I've bought. I wore the other two out after many years of service. This one is the best of the three. I get a closer shave with less irritation than either prior shaver. The battery lasts as presented and it travels well. I seldom use it while wet, but that's a great option that I will keep. The cost/value is very high-I cannot imagine getting a better shave from a machine that costs two or three times as much.
I was pleasantly surprised to find that this shaver worked well with either light or heavy facial hair and was easy on my face from the first time I used it. If I could give it 4.5 stars I would have. The only thing I can fault is the side-burn trimmer which I believe could do a better, more efficient job
Pros: works well with different amounts of facial hair, kind to my face i.e. little if no irritation
