Good in parts

Had this for two weeks now and the good bits are:

1. I like the lotion dispensing system. I now use it all the time: something I never got round to when applying lotion separately.

2. Quite a good shave with the heads following contours well.

The bad bits:
1. Feels rather flimsy: the heads flew off when I was trying to shake it dry.

2. Time consuming to clean: but I guess this is the same with all dispensing shavers as the balm clogs up the cutters.

3. Whilst the shavers looks quite elegant, the charger is not. It has a hot shoe stand that that is very cheap and flimsy. I think that the manufactures have not adapted to the rechargeable systems. I would like to see a 3-pin plug with a slot to put the shaver in for charging. This razor comes with a 2-pin plug that needs a 3-pin adaptor unless you charge it in the bathroom (but why would you want to do this?), a long cable and the flimsy hot-shoe stand: an unnecessarily clumsy set-up for charging.

Rant over: not a bad razor overall!

Better than previuos Phillishaver

I thought that was good but to my surprise this one gave me an even better shave. Really smooth.

Fantastic Value

Bought this shaver for my dad last year he loved it so much he asked for another one to take travelling with him.

What fantastic service ordered it on Wenesday evening and it arrived on Friday morning, better still it came with a years supply of balm and a nose hair trimmer. Fantastic bargain and service.

Thanks
