Shaver that lasts

Shaver has lasted many years (probably 10 at least). I have had to repair or replace the head, but otherwise it has not failed.

Excellent

Excellent product, this is my second purchase of this item. I use it to shave my head as well as my face and do this every day which takes about 10 minutes. I like the way i can simply clean under tap and leave to charge and dry ready for the next day. Overall no complaints and would recommend.

Great purchase

I bought this shaver for my husband's birthday. He has been using it for a week now and is extremely pleased with it. It gives a very close shave without irritating and reddening his face/neck as he has very sensitive skin. He is very impressed with the flex and pivot action of the shaver. It's easy to charge and keep clean.
