Review (1/5): worst shaving experience
This was my first rotory razor I purchased. I thought I would try something new, and the Philips name has always been good. I would have thought that a high name would have a better product and I figured that rotory razors should have come along way in the past 10 years. I have always used foil razors for years prior to this.
I used the razor for a week; trying different preshave chemicals to help reduce the burn I was receiving. The razor felt smooth to the skin, but it left my neck red and burning feeling all day long. Nothing helped to reduce that feeling either.
The only positive attribute is that Philips has the money back guarantee. There wasn't a catch at all, but it does take 4-6 weeks to receive the refund.
Needless to say, I went back to a foil razor, which happens to be a Panasonic Vortex. It is what I left to buy this Philips razor. I was never so happy to get rid of something. The Panasonic takes me half the time to shave, gives me a closer shave, and no burn. All of the razors already positive features where enhanced when I continued using the remaining Electric Shave preshave prior to shaving with the Panasonic.
I will never purchase another rotory razor again! It was the worst shaving experience I have had with razors.
