||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This shaver seems to pull the hair instead of cutting. There may be an issue with the cutters themselves.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendGood

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have used similar Norelco razors for about ten years. This one is not very good. I was able to shave with it but not comfortably. I will be throwing this one away and buying a newer model. I definitely would not recommend this to any person I know. This is the kind of razor you would give to someone you don't like.

Posted .Hello, thanks for your review. We are sorry to hear you aren't happy with your Norelco shaver. We'd like to suggest a few tips which may help you improve your shaving results: 1. Pre-trim your long facial hair, if you have not shaved for a couple of days and/or have a heavy beard. 2. Be gentle. Only apply a gentle pressure on your skin, which makes your facial hair stand upright and makes it easier for the shaver blades to catch and cut them. 3. Move the shaver on your skin in circular movements to cut all hair growing in different direction. 4. Try both dry and wet shave, to see which one suits best your skin and hair type. If this doesn't improve your experience, please reach out to us on Social Media. We’re available 24/7 on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/Philips ) and Twitter (https://twitter.com/philipscare). Alternatively, you can reach out to us via the contact page on our website. One of our colleagues will then try their best to help you further. Hope to speak to you soon! Philips Consumer Care
Razor
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just ok for the money. Doesn't hold a charge long.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendNot that great.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Misses a lot of spots on my head and doesn't cut consistently. Have to go over the same spots so many times I've actually gone back to using my non-powered razor. I thought maybe this would at least be faster than traditional having, but nope! Can't even do that!

Doesn’t shave, Pulls
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not enough power for a man’s beard, maybe it would work for a teenager - returned right away
No, I would not recommend this to a friend It does not work properly
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Looks great but not works great, it lacks speed and seems to slow to cutting/ shaving And is sad cause is a respectable brand, anyways not worth buying it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendDisappointed in this Norelco Shaver
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Unfortunately this shaver simply didn't shave. Even after multiple passes the shaver only removed a few hairs from my face. It felt like cheap plastic and sounded like it too. I have used Norelco Shavers for years and this one doesn't live up to the name. My current shaver is the Norelco Aquatec, it's solidly built and feels heavier in your hand. I don't know the model number but I've had it about 5 years and it's been extremely reliable and still gets the job done although not as efficiently as when I first bought it. Looks like my best option is to buy new blades for the old model. I would not recommend the Philips Norelco Series 3000 shaver, it simply doesn't shave.

Poor quality
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.very poor quality, would not recomend this product. My two years norelco shaver cut much better.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendOlder ones weee better
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve used Norelco’s for 40 years, all of my old had a closer shave than this one. You would think it improves but you have to go over the same area over and over again and press harder to get a fairly close shave. Disappointed.

Posted .Hi, thank you for taking your time to leave this review. We are very sorry to hear that your experience with our shaver was far from perfect. Please allow us to suggest a few tips that can improve your experience.
It's possible that your shaver is not giving good results because it's dirty. There can be hair or dirt particles stuck inside it, causing the shaving heads to not function correctly. To fix this problem, please properly clean your shaver. If possible, remove the shaving heads and clean your shaver from the inside as well. When you shave with your Philips Shaver, you will achieve optimal results if you make slow circular movements with the shaver over the face. While shaving, it is important to be gentle, especially if you have sensitive skin prone to irritation. Do not press the shaver too hard against your skin. Only apply a gentle pressure which makes your facial hair stand upright and makes it easier for the shaver blades to catch and cut them. And lastly, another reason why your shaver might not be working properly is that it is not assembled correctly.
However, we are still glad to look into this further! Please feel free to get in touch via social media. We’re available 24/7 on Facebook and Twitter. Alternatively, you can reach out to us via the contact page on our website www.philips.com/support. One of our colleagues will then try their best to help you further. Hope to speak to you soon!

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The quality (close shaves without leaving individual hairs remaining, has been the Average result of their shavers $150 over the past 10 plus years. The redesign of the heads are the culprit. I have a shaver that is 15 years old and it shaves better than the newer ones.
