Review (3/5): Cut out to be?
I have used Norelco for 18 years now. I have purchased three other shavers thru the years. This time, I wanted to try the latest to see if the coverage and close shave is any better.
I noticed the head is lighter, probably because you can rinse the head in water; therefore, most parts are plastic. I did not expect the rinse indicator to light up each time I use it.
The closeness setting has three modes. My previous model had 9. It did not matter; I use the closes setting all the time.
The head has more coverage; however, I think the multi opening is too complex (holds and line opening to cut closer). I find that parts of my chin/throat area has a few strands that are difficult to cut. I tried different angles and push even harder to the face and it does not work well. I had to use the trimmer to trim down the few.
I was tempted to return it since it has a 60 days money back. My old one is "DEAD" does not charge nor does it work with outlet (7 yrs). So I decided to push forward with this model. Maybe this one will last me just as long as the previous model.
