Supported elderly neighbour with purchasing this item. Was unsure after looking in chemist &!electrical shops which to get. Then looked online various website , then came across this particular brand . Ordered It arrived the next day with some charge. Charged up couple hours . Best shave he’s had for a very long time . As we know with aging , tendency to wards more difficult areas to such as sunken cheeks . Very sharp bladesThis shaver did it magic, it works beautifully easy to use ,clean & charge up. No cleaning brush in packaging so soft old toothbrush can be deployed.. Easy to grip great functionality & design even for somone with arthritic wrist or hands It was a good price

I like this shaver, it's effective, the head moves and is flexible and is easy to wash and clean under the tap. Seemingly it's always on sale so the RRP is a little misleading but it's good value if you can get it, especially if it's available for under £60. The downsides? It needs to be charged in the mains with a standard 3-point UK plug whereas a USB might be more useful and indeed it cannot be charged using a the standard bathroom mains shaver socket either. The shave does NOT come with a cover for the heads so not ideal for travelling either. A weird omission. Finally, the trimmer has to be snapped on separately which surprised me and is clearly a money-saving issue from Philips. If you want to use the trimmer then you have to pull the 3 heads off and attach the trimmer by snapping it on to the top of the shaver. Then you have to pull it off to reattach the shaver/razor heads. I don't like this at all as all my previous shavers have trimmers built it. But - I do like this largely because I rarely use the trimmer

Ive been humming & harring over buying a new electric shaver for a good while.... but worried it would be as uncomfortable as my old one (the one I've not used for 10 years!) that irritated my skin something awful! Settled for a series 5000 and im really taken aback. Ive about 4 days growth (had), and it whizzed it off in a couple of minutes. No pulled hairs, no discomfort, no patches.... what an improvement over my old one - like night and day! Very smooth... very very impressed. Love it

Easy to use, easy to clean, good close shave, battery has a good lifespan

Great shaver, very smooth and excellent battery, easy to swop heads over, attachment for sideburns comes with it, simple to clean under running tap, lcd display and a carry bag as well

I am very please with my new shaver. I bought it to replace my previous one which was a Braun. I had had Philips shavers in the past but got the Braun as it was recommended by Which, but I never liked it. My new Philips suits me much better. It is more comfortable on my face. The charge lasts longer which is very convenient. The only downside is that it takes longer to shave than my previous shaver, but, it does shave more closely if I am patient!

I have been a user of Philips shaving products since a teenager. There is nothing to change my opionion now of Philips as far as the product goes but the lack of a plastic cover over the heads , no brush and the snap on head and beard trimmer is a cost cutting measure which was not a good idea. No issues with hair removal , does a nice clean cut/shave, good period of time when fully charged , no issue with the noise not unduly loud. After over a month use I have not experience in skin irritation and no reduction seen in the power of shaver. Ita worth strongly consider buying some extra heads for when they need replacing and get a brush to keep it clean, wouldn't recommend putting the heads under a cold water tap after use and dry it afterwards if you can use a brush so much the better.

Its a decent shaver and gets the job done but the one big issue with it and I'm not sure if the one I got is just defective or not but for some strange reason the shaver thinks its not charged so it doesn't turn on it just blinks an orange light until you put it on charge and immediately take it off and then it works fine. Aside from that I've not had any problems, definitely consider getting on sale though.
