Philips Norelco Arcitec 1060
I have used Norelco shavers for 40+ years, and I love the look and weight of this shaver.<br /><br />I used it for 6 months and was so dissatisfied I finally switched to the Braun Pulsonic.<br /><br />The Arcitec shaves poorly and harshly.  The famous floating heads are gone, instead the heads pivot from the center of the assembly - i.e. they tilt away from your skin rather than into your skin.  You end up trying to shave with the middle of the shaver assembly, where there is no cutting head.<br /><br />Also, they moved the trimmer inboard so it is hidden by your hand if you hold it the way you would normally.  This you can adjust to.<br /><br />They need a major redesign of the detachable shaving head assembly.  If they made the cutting heads pivot on their centers instead of from the inside edge, it would probably work and they could sell guys like me the redesigned shaving head assembly.  Maybe they could also go back to the Spectra cutters?<br /><br />JM
