Finally, an Electric Razor that Works!!, 4 Jul 2007
I have tried a number of electric razors over more than 40 years. This is the first one that gives me a shave as good as (or better than) my Mach 3. Also, unlike previous electric razors I have used it does not leave me sore and with a shaving rash - probably because of the gel and the fact that it can be used wet in the shower.
Because of my previous experiences it took a lot of heart searching to pay the relatively high price for this model, but I have found it to be well worth the money.
With both a main charger/gel filling station and a smaller charger it will also be invaluable for travelling (filling with gel can also be done manually, thus avoiding the need to carry the main charing unit).
The open head design also makes cleaning very simple but does make the motor sound more noisy - not really noticeable in the shower though.

Great Shaver - Real Value For Money, 2 Nov 2007
I bought this shaver as a replacement for wet shaving (Gillete Fussion) although I have, in the past, owned several elctric shavers from Braun and Phillips. The shaver has truly surpassed all my expectations in terms of the closeness of the shave and the comfort of use. It's a superbly designed product that I would recomend to anyone. If you compare the price of this shaver with the cost of replacement razor blades over a couple of years it represents reasonably good value. Being able to shave in the shower is helpful and everything about this product is well thought out and designed. Highly recomended.

Great!, 18 Nov 2007
I've just bought this shaver as I've been toying with the idea of an electric one for a while now. I was forced to use Gilette fusion as most super markets had stopped selling Mach 3 for some reason in Canterbury, but the five blades didn't cut my hair it just dragged them. I bought this for 75 in Boots and I think it's fantastic! I had to pump the nivea bottle a couple of times before it worked, but once it does it's a wonderful sensation and I don't think 7 pounds for a bottle is expensive at all. If you're thinking of buying one, buy this kit. It lasta round 1.5 hours on charge so it's great for weekends away too as you don't even need to pack nivea separately and it comes with a nice little material hanger to put all of your stuff in the bathroom in! Top Stuff.

I bought this after reading a few favourable reviews. I had my serious doubts but said what the hell.

Brilliant!
I've never been a fan of electric razors, but then again my experience was limited to a cheap one in the early 80s.

new razor
Better than my old Philips razor, like the way it carges and fills lotion reserve.
Only used for a little while but no razor rashes, very good and close shave.

It does what it should.
The moisturizer is a great benifit, it stops the razor dragging on your skin and has quite a nice smell (or so the wife says).

Best shaver ever
Shaving was getting very expensive. I have a "Gillette Fusion power razor." It was costing me 16:00 every 14 days for blades. The Philishave will pay for itself in 4 months.
