Review (3/5): Tired of junk replacement parts
Thanks for the info on the 30B trick. I have had my 8985 for a long, long, time. 5 years? I have been temped to upgrade several times but keep seeing the same problems and high prices. I purchased a new foil kit last year about this time and the shaver went like new. I threw out the cleaning system long ago. I just bang it on the side of the sink every time to clean it. Might be wrong but I've been doing that for years. The new replacement foil set lasted about 6 months then came apart prematurely so some superglue fixed that. I am going to try the 3B trick stated above and see what happens. I think the prices for new shavers and foils are crazy. I'll keep my old shaver until I hit the jackpot and can waste money. Manufactures please quit playing games. The model number that changes by 1 or 2 digits is still the same machine and we are not fooled when you sell dif. model numbers to different stores so they don't have to price match. Thanks for the advice.
