Decided to go from go-T/scruffy look to clean shave and I love this shaver. I did not want to use blades as I did with go-T. Already a past Philips user here, but 1st time with the Nivea system and it is great; close, smooth shave and conditioner leaves skin soft and silky. Just rinse shaver after use(with power ON) and you're all set.
Good if you shave every day to every 3 days at most. Not good for go-T or beard wearers or guys who don't shave regularly.
If you're patient and follow the instructions carefully, i.e. shave with circular movements and not to much pressure, you'll love it. Give it a few days to adapt especially if you were blade shaving before.

I am a long time Norelco user and was interested in having a shower shaver. This cuts as well as my previous Norelco shavers, meaning close and clean, and does not irritate the skin.
If you like to shave in the shower this is a good shaver.
I do not understand those who say it is a good dry shaver as it has no receiver (the blades are floating) and clipped hair goes everywhere. I would not use this as a dry shaver.
An added bonus is supposed to be the skin conditioner dispenser. This is clearly a gimmick (think razor blades - buy often). It requires a large amount to be dispensed to be effective. The long term usage cost makes this a very expensive product if you use the razor conditioner.

This is the best shaver I've ever owned. Norelco has always made a great product. Also the care and attention given by Drugstore.com was impecable, I would definitely do business again.
Comments about Norelco Nivea for Men Razor, HS8420, 1 set:
I have been using Norelco razors since 2005 to shave my head in the shower. I decided to purchase this product to replace my old Norelco Coolskin razor that I bought in 2007. The blades were a couple of years old and I decided to update the whole razor instead of trying to replace the razor heads. Please note, that I use regular shaving cream/gel instead of the Nivea gel that comes with the product - it may be a factor in my review, but I don't think using the Nivea gel would have made that much difference. This razor is about half the size of the 2007 Coolskin model, which I think is the problem. The first thing I noticed when I tried to shave my head for the first time was that it quickly got clogged with shaving cream and lost power, which significantly limited its ability to give a close shave. I had to repeatedly rinse it out, and then go over the same area again and again. Even then, I really didn't get as close a shave as I had with my old razor. After getting about half my head shaved, I gave up and switched back to my old razor, with the old blades, and got a superior, faster shave than with the brand new razor. I have not used it since. The primary problem with this razor is that it's small and is underpowered. I would return it if I could. I am very disappointed.

I have owned at least 5 different Norelco razors over the years, and i must say that this is the very best. The reason in my opinion is the head of the unit... the blades are usually contained in a head unit, where with this razor the are individual and free floating almost. Which makes for a more precise cutting area. IMPORTANT... For people who have never used electric razors before... it is of the utmost importance that you allow 3 to 4 weeks of not so great shaves to allow your skin time to adjust to the new style of shave. That is really important. And i dont think most people give it enough time before they judge the quality of the shave. Again, ive been using Norelcos for years and years now, and i cant use a regular blade. They tear my face up. This has really been the best of all ive ever had. I love it and actually ordered a second for when this one goes.

It shaves well. It gives a comfortable shave. It fits my hand nicely. It keeps a charge for a week. It is the third one like it I purchased over the years. The model has had minor changes but it is basically the same razor, just getting better. Every few years when I wear one out, I get a new one. I prefer to buy a new one over replacing the blades because the difference in cost is minimal and they have always made some improvements so it is worth a few bucks to upgrade. No other razor company has even come close to making anything I would consider over this product. I am a fan forever as far as I can tell.
