Philips Norleco Speed-XL 8160XLCC

Pros: Smooth shave, long lasting battery, inexpensive, and reliable...

Cons: None so far...

The Bottom Line: One of the best electric shavers I have ever owned...

Review: After my older shaver (the Norelco 8894XL) past away as a result of it accidentally coming in contact with the under side of my sisters Mazda MPV's right rear tire, I decided to present myself with this newer and more attractive...

Pros: The guarantee: getting my money back after returning it.

Cons: Was not as close as a blade; nowhere near. Razor burn, short battery life, noisy.

The Bottom Line: Try it, just keep the receipt.

Review: I started my shaving life with a norelco in 1992. When my beard got too thick after a few years, I switched to Mach3 disposables. 10 years later, my beard now grows too fast to only shave every other day. So I decided I would try an electric, hoping...

Pros: Quiet, comfortable to hold, 60 day money back guarantee.

Cons: Patchy, slow motor, pulls at hair, takes too long to shave.

The Bottom Line: If you have never experienced problems with electrics this might be a great shaver, but if you have a tough beard, avoid this product.

Review: If you are one of those people who have never had issues with electrics then this may be a great product, but for my tough beard it's not a good shaver. I think the main problem is that the motors spin too slow, and it pulls at my hair more than...

Pros: charges fast and stays for long time.

Cons: nothing so far

The Bottom Line: Highly recommend

Review: Now that holiday season has come I want to share about one perfect gift that I gave to my husband for last year Christmas. I bought this Philips Norelco speed XL shaver 75$ in last year thankgiving deals at costco. Good price for a great gift!! When...

Pros: Fast, clean, quiet, long time between charges.

Cons: None found yet

Review: This razor is fantastic. It is much faster and quieter than my previous Norelco, a 1328, that I used for almost 20 years. Most impressive to me is that it shaves cleanly in only a couple of passes even with a few days growth or when the beard is...

Pros: quiet, effective, easy to use, easy to clean

Cons: bulky cleaning station

Review: This is the first electric shaver I've ever owned. I've been shaving daily for about 9 years. Its not quite as good as the 5-blade razor, but I haven't had razor burn since I switched! I'd compare the closeness of the shave to the 5-blade razor...

Pros: Smooth, close shave. Convenient cleaning/charging system. Comfortable to hold.

Cons: Charging/Cleaning system is kinda large.

Review: I had previously owned a Remmington electric foil shaver for about 6 months before purchasing the Norelco and my skin would still become irritated everytime i used it but so far the Norelco has left my skin smooth and comfortable everytime. After...

Pros: Lightweight holds charge for long period of time, close comfortable shave.

Cons: I have not found any so far

Review: This is the first time I have been compelled enough to write a review. Norelco has done a very good job with this shaver it gives a close shave and is very convenient to use. Plus the cleaning system works great. I do not see any reason to purchase...
