My wife loves my smooth face...

 

Replaced a competitor's product that did not work for me, was noisy and took a long time to shave me, did not work with long hair and was generally a disappointment. Decided to try this as it was on sale. Well it was a surprise to say the least. It was...

Close Shave

 

I ordered the Norelco 1250x/40 and haven't been disappointed. It does just what is says it does. Close shave and is easy to operate. The battery lasts forever and I love the LED battery level indicators. It tells you when you need to change the blades...

A little pricy. Doesn't do well on long rough facial hair.

Love it!

 

Got a 1250X to replace a 10+ year old Norelco that would hold a charge for about a day. I've had the 1250 for over a week and love it! It gives a much better shave than my old razor and I love the 3D action of the heads. It really helps with faces like...

None. The only mild con is the price, but so far I'd say it is worth the extra $s

Acceptable, but wanting.

 

Razor function itself is very good.

Can only be recharged through charge stand; not directly through razor. This makes it hard to travel with. The trimmer is under powered and of very little use. Overall I would rather have my 2002 Braun which failed at an admirable 9 years. The newer...

As Good as it Gets!

 

I'm new to using an electric (Hence my low tech knowledge rating). I actually cut myself with this razor during my first use. I guess I was pressing it down on my skin to hard.

Close shave (for an electric). Stays charged for ever. (I haven't had to charge it yet.) Offers a great wet shave! Looks rad

Nothing gets as close as a traditional razor. The trimmer is almost useless. Not a good dry shaver

Great shave

 

Using this with shaving cream gives a very close shave. Love this product. Best one I've ever owned.

Can be used wet and with shaving cream. Light weight. Very flexable heads.

Pretty good...

 

I switched over to this because I have to shave on a daily bases and cartridges will irritate my skin if I use them that much. This get's about as close as 5 hours after a Fusion or Quattro shave, but since you can shave without irritation you are able...

-Very close shave (almost as close as with say... a mach 3) -Quiet -Fast -Great build quality

-Trimmer is a bit noisy when you enable it -High initial cost
