Review (3/5): Step down in quality but adequate.
I have been using Norelco products for 50 years. As a child I was fascinated by the floating head technology showing Santa in the TV commercial sledding on the terrain in a floating razor. I have had 10+ years of service from my older models. My last cordless lasted only about 5 years when the battery and the whole motor died. While usually I have stepped up the ladder in purchases, I was disappointed with the early obsolescence of my last razor. Since I never travel with it ( disposables on trips), I had a hard time finding a corded model as replacement. I would have preferred something more substantial, but this item for the price seems adequate though the shaves are not as close. Investing $100+ in a better cordless model doesn't seem a good value. We'll see if this model has any staying power.
