Thanks for a great bargain. This is the best shaver around at this price, and I find it very comfortable, and efficient. The cleaning system is a little quirky, but I?ll get used to it, and it works very well.
Pros:
Extremely fast motor.Good battery life.
Easy to charge in base-station or straight from power cord.
Good close cut (once you're used to it).
Extremely good value as any other shavers with a cleaning base are twice the price. Plus fast, free delivery!
Cleaning base means your shaver will stay in top condition for a long time.
Double blades shave double-quick.
Washable instead of brush to clean heads.
Free nose/ear clipper (needs battery).
Cons:
Colour received was metalic brown, not silver as in the picture.
Shaver came with European plug, not UK plug. Luckily I have an adapter which takes this type of plug.
Pouring the cleaning liquid into the base is messy, and it is impossible to get it back out again without a big mess on your hands (and everywhere else too).
Cleaning liquid evaporates out of cleaning base over time.
On/off button set deep into shaver and takes a bit of pressing.
Opening the head to clean takes 2 hands, one to press both the buttons at once, and the other to flip the lid whilst holding the shaver (make that 3).
Very loud, whiney motor.
When the battery goes flat, it stops immediately and won't even give a slow shave - must be plugged in to finish shave.
Shavers.co.uk Editor Comments:
The 2-pin plug is actually a 2-pin UK shaver plug. We don't actually sell a shaver that doesn't come with a 2-pin plug as they are fitted by manufacturers for safety reasons (2-pin sockets use a 1 amp max fuse). Check the spares list or basket page for a suitable adapter if needed. Glad the shaver performed well in use, thanks for the feedback!
