Remington F5 Power Series Foil Shaver, Electric Razor for Men, Cordless Rechargeable with Pop Up Trimmer, Pivot & FlexFoil Technology, Lightweight Handheld Design, Black

This is a robust shaver, micro-screen type, so it will take a few shavings to really assess its performance. It works really well when a pre-shaving lotion is used. I did not experience any undesired pulling and the quality of the shaving, although not the same as a classic razor blade, is of a reasonable quality. Cleaning is easy and the provided brush is adequate to the task. The only remaining item to comment about is charging time, but I am still shaving with the initial charge, as it came from the package (about 10 shaves already). And durability, of course...

I purchased this as a gift for an elderly man that can no longer use bladed razors due to being on blood thinners. He had a different style electric shaver prior to this, but even after a fresh shave, it left behind the rough feeling of stubble and minor skin irritations. This product is an amazing upgrade! Even on a dry face, it gave such a close and pain free shave! Just as clean as a real razor. I’m considering getting one for myself to use on my legs. The results were that smooth & impressive! After looking at so many options, I’m definitely happy with this choice.

This razor for the money cuts really close and is very good. The one thing you need to pay attention to the instructions is that I have soft stubbles and you have stretch your skin with your hand. The shave in small circular motions for it to get all the hair. This is provided in the product description and in instructions. If you do this you’ll be impressed for the money this shave provides I have no issue getting new replacement heads at all. This beats shaving with a razor and shaving with a clipper easily. And it’s also faster. One charge lasts a long time too and to preserve the battery make sure to fully drain by using it before each charge and the razor will not let you down. Don’t charge when it’s half way as it will make the battery not last as long. The indicator is nice and accurate on how much charge is left and the blades in the head are easy to clean with the provided brush. Make sure each shave to clean the heads with it and you’ll get a nice cut every time.

Ever since a traffic accident left me rather gun-shy about using razor blades on my face, I've been an electric shaver user. I still have my old Norelco (the thing is almost 40 years old!) and would probably still be using that but they don't make replacement heads for it anymore. So I transitioned to the foil shavers and found them to be mediocre, but useful enough to keep the undergrowth trimmed back until the gardeners could come in once a week and do a proper job (AKA using a razor only once a week instead of every day). And for a couple of decades, this was my usual routine. The foil shavers never lasted more than a year or two before the foil heads wore through and often times, finding replacement heads was impossible. I have a drawer of perfectly good, if worn, foil shavers hoping one day I'll be able to find a screen or cutter for them. And because of their lack of longevity, I've rarely spent very much on them (which, admittedly, might have something to do with why they're not lasting very long). So when my last foil shaver wore through (always an exciting feeling to have one's skin abraded away in an instant and foofing the cat's tail by suddenly howling in pain), and I couldn't find any replacement screens or cutters for it, I was getting annoyed and decided to go a bit higher end. Most of the shavers I got before were in the 15-20 dollar range. I figured I'd go about double and see if there was something worthy of abrading my face in the (hopefully more distant than usual) future. (Note: I got this under Amazon Prime at the time at a lower price than it's listed now and would likely not have spent the money to get it at the price showing for it as of January 27, 2015) Thus far, I've found it to be a pretty good shaver. It has most of the cutting power of a razor without the drawbacks of a conventional foil shaver. Most foil shavers I've used leave a few hairs uncut which, after a few days, get too long to ever cut with a foil head. That's why I occasionally used a blade - to get the last hairs standing. But this shaver has a little lawn trimmer built into the head between the foils that trims down these standers to a level where the foil head can handle. This means, for a foil head, it's the best shave I've ever had. Blades will get closer, but not by a lot. And I haven't had to USE a blade since I got it. Bonus. So for allowing me to put away the twin blades of death, this little (or not so little) shaver has earned my respect as a credible, front-line, handle-it-all shaver on par with my trusty Norelco. My only concern is its longevity, which might take a star off if it isn't at least as durable as the cheaper models. The cost/benefit ratio of buying another one of these, and buying more razors will factor into whether or not I get replacement heads for it (something I checked to see if they had before buying) or go back to something cheaper and buy cheap razors for the standing hairs again. So my five star rating is on the assumption that the foils will last at least as long as they do in the cheaper models (and hopefully longer!) because otherwise it gives an excellent shave. I usually gush over my five star ratings, and I'd be doing it over this, but I don't know about longevity. The current price would make me hesitate about getting another one if the foil doesn't last substantially longer than the less expensive ones and/or if the price of head replacements has gone up as well. I'm always cost-conscious (I'm a cheap SOB), so value to me means excellent performance for the value. The performance IS excellent. The value remains to be seen. However, if the price comes down to about double the legal drinking age, get it if you need one. At that price, it's definitely worth it.

I was told this version of Remington buts the Brauns and Phillips to shame, and IT DOES. Great device for everyone who needs a clean look every day.
