A Word of Warning - 2 Years Doesn't Mean 2 Years to Norelco
I owned a Philips Norelco shaver that cost much more than this model (purchased Dec 2008).  However, even at more than twice the price the I found the quality of the shaver to not meet my expectations. After a year of usage my shaver would stop intermittently while I was shaving. After a couple weeks the shaver would not turn on at all. The shaver was replaced under warranty.<br /><br />Walk the calendar forward to Nov 2010 and I am experiencing exactly the same problem, shaver stops intermittently while I'm shaving (even though it's fully charged). Knowing what's about to occur AGAIN I call Philips/Norelco customer care, the shaver has a 2 year warranty, but not really. While P/N warranties the shaver for 2 years, they only cover replacement ONCE. Even though I'm still within my 2 year warranty, the unit is no longer covered.<br /><br />Now maybe I'm just one unlucky guy, getting two shavers that have exactly the same problems and almost within the same time frame (1 year), but this seems to indicate a design flaw in this particular model. The fact that P/N warranty terminates after the initial unit is replaced is not making me a happy P/N customer. I then looked for another shaver, this time it was NOT a P/N model and I would suggest that you consider other brands as well or be well aware that 2 years doesn't mean 2 years to Norelco.
