great product [Posted on 2008-08-09] I've been a Norelco shaver all my life, this is the best one yet! Works perfectly and the price is right. The only
reservation I have is that little side-burn/mustache trimmer, its useless. The shaver tells you when to clean and when to charge. You don't need the other one with all the bells and whistles. Good product!!!
HW,
Do NOT buy this razor! [Posted on 2008-08-15] I've owned several Norelco razors over the years, and up till now they've all been pretty good. This time I figured I'd go all out and get the expensive model. The results were poor, it seemed to take forever to shave, and it missed a lot of hairs. But I stuck with it rather than returning it. I thought "hey, it costs so much, it must be good, maybe I just need to get used to it." Duh.
Now I'm stuck with a worthless razor that is not capable of cutting all of the hairs, let along cutting them close. I have to use the beard trimmer to get the ones that the cutting heads missed, generally on my neck. What a piece of garbage! My last Philips/Norelco product ever.
The people that claim it cuts "as close as a blade" must have peachfuzz on their face. A grown man with a tough beard will find that this functions better as a paperweight than as a razor. Zero stars.
just OK [Posted on 2008-08-23] I have used electric shavers for many years. It seemed that the design of this product should yield a better shave than traditional designs but it did not
A Sorry Excuse for a Norelco [Posted on 2008-08-23]
It's one of the coolest electric razors I've seen. I bought the 1050CC. I couldn't wait to get this one. I love Norelco's products. I bought this shaver and tried it for a couple of weeks and found it delivers a really harsh uncomfortable shave with lots of razor burn which I never got from my other Norelco. I think one reason for the harsh shave is that it doesn't have the floating heads anymore that easily give to the contours of your face, this seems to plow into curves instead and you also don't get the range of pivoting that the previous models have (I noticed this didn't surround my Adams Apple like my 9170XL does it sits flat on it). It gives a decent shave but not a great shave like I was hoping and you have to go over areas many times. I think who ever designed this razor just went for how sleek and cool they could make it look and the function came second. You can get as good of shave with a 9170XL SpeedXL which has the same cutting head technology and gain the comfort and save $120. It just won't look as cool on your counter. Sorry Norelco but when I spend $200 dollars I just don't want something that looks good I want it improved too. I talked to the Corp. office, in regard to this. Their Demanor was
"it is the finest razor we have ever made". VERY UNTRUE.
I have used Norelco for many years, ( I am 71) This is the WORST razor I have ever owned. Bar None
