Best Bang for the Buck
Posted by: | CommentsNorelco 7310 Review
Moved up from a Bell & Howell Zx4 shaver, which was complete garbage. The Norelco offers a pretty solid feel, and offers an excellent shave. No problems at all. Great value!

Excellent Shaver
Posted by: | CommentsPhilips Norelco 7810 Men’s Cutting System Review
I have been using Norelco electric razors since 1989. My last product was the model 6843XL that I bought in 2005, I replaced the cutting heads twice. Recently I bought this model 7810XL an it is awesome. It’s very noticeable the closer shaving that you get. The speed of the cutting heads is higher and quiet. The design of the cover of the head has different patterns, lines as the former but also little holes that catch the shortest remaining stuble. The capability of to be cleaned with hot water under the faucet is an additional advantage.
I recommend to any that previously own an old model that try this one.

What a Shave!
Posted by: | CommentsPhilips Norelco 1050CC arcitec Men’s Shaving System Review
I’ve had Norelco’s since I first started shaving many many many years ago. My last Norelco was huge disappointment, as I had to take a good 15 to 20 minutes to get a mediocre shave, often having to decide between irritated skin from endless shaving or settling for sandpaper skin. After reading the other reviews for the Norelco 1050cc Arcitec, I decided I had nothing to lose. First, the shave is FANTASTIC. No more than 3 minutes gets me a fantastic shave. Second, the head design is much more flexible which makes it easier to follow the natural curves of your face. Third, the ability to wet the heads (lightly dampen them) and shave makes for an unbelievably smooth shaving experience. Norelco, my skin thanks you. This shaver was done right.

OMG!
Posted by: | CommentsBraun Series 3 390cc Clean & Renew System Review
To make a long story short, I can’t even think of shaving daily with blades because of irritation. I also own an 5-year-old high-end Norelco rotary (like it quite a bit), but I can only get a close shave with it while shaving (wet) every 3-4 days, I can shave with it (dry) daily with only minor irritation, but not a close shave… not close at all!
After researching insatiably, I decided to try a foil electric (Panasonic or Braun) because almost every review I read said that it provides less irritation and a closer shave than a rotary, and it’s better for shorter hairs, making it ideal for daily shaving. My plan was to buy the Braun, use it for 30 days, return it and then give the Panasonic a try for the next 30 days, and then choose the one I liked most.
Let me put it this way, I know it takes the skin 2-4 weeks to get used to a new shaving system; I have owned the Braun for a total of THREE DAYS (that’s right, 3 shaves) and I can honestly tell you that I will NOT be returning it, and not even thinking about trying out the Panasonic. This is the best shave I have ever had in my life, period!
The first shave wasn’t as close as I was expecting, but after running it through the cleaning system, the next two shaves were spectacular… close, smooth and not one bit of irritation!
Oh, and don’t pay attention to those who complain about the cleaning station being loud… I can’t even hear the damn thing while the shower is running, and it only makes noise for about 5 minutes, after that it’s all quiet… plus it has this really cool blue light that gives my sink counter a very high tech look.

I used clipper for the first time and was amazed at how well it worked. My dog has coarse hair and it took me a while to get the job done, but the dog tolerated the buzzing sound and clipper did not overheat as other brands do. I do recommend this clipper for anyone who wants to pay a reasonable price for a good working clipper.
