by PitbullDad [Verified Reviewer]

in Manassas, VA on 7/6/09

Pros: Easy to Use

Describe Yourself: Clean Cut

Best Uses: Dry Use, Shaving, Trimming

Bottom Line: recommended

I had a cancer diagnosis a year ago and formerly was a "single edge" blade user for 40 years--the kind you can't buy any more except from online specialty stores. It was hard to go to electric but since I had head and neck cancer and the neck area was being radiated, and with chemo my counts were down, they did not want to risk infection. I have stayed with electric since then because of surgical scars on the neck (uneven terrain!), and this Norelco shaver[...] has been quite satisfactory. You need to replace the heads about annually, but the replacement heads are hard to find in a retail store. It makes it so much easier to go online and save the fuss of driving around trying to find the matching replacement heads, but drugstore.com has a good selection to meet your needs [...]

I love this product and it is far more than I expected. I used to typically shave every morning but with this new shaver...it takes about a day and half to need shave again. It's a great value and great product.

I have been using my razor for 3 years and kept reading that I should change the 'cutters' every year. I finally did and the results were well worth it. It now takes me about 1/3 the time and I get a much cleaner shave.
