Best Remington Men's Electric Shavers

After trying other head shavers that stopped working within a year, I purchased the Remington Balder Pro. I have had for two years now and it is… Read more

still going strong. Since my initial purchase, I bought replacement blades, each blade set lasts around 12 months. Replacement blades are readily available.

The shaver works very well, always does a great job and is easy to use. I use it every day and it has not stopped working once. Many people compliment me on how well my head is shaved.

If it did stop working, I would buy another one. It is great value.

My son purchased this shaver for my birthday, and it works fantastic, gives me a really close shave without any irritation Show details

Probably 3 stars on the device, but bumped to a 4 star due to bang for buck value. I'm a long time electric razor user. It wasn't until my Remington… Read more

RS8503 3 foil shaver finally gave up the ghost after 35+ yrs of semi regular use, that I was forced to buy another shaver. The old shaver was a reliable thing, 3 close shaving foils, a pop up full width trimmer, perfect in the hand fit, the head shape reasonably svelte allowing even some foil based edge marking and trimming along the goatee line. The new razor had a lot to live up to.

I ended up buying the Remington F7 Style, 3 foil shaver, largely because it was a Remington, looked to have most of my old shaver's features and because it was at a decent price (have you seen the price of some shavers on offer these days?).

The pros - It does the expected job, surprisingly no better than my old shaver so it's not like the foils and cutters have improved over the years, but the shave is acceptably close. The foils are flexible. If the stubble isn't long, it powers through a reliable shave in quick time. It is somewhat of a different fit in the hand due to the long "handle" but the back of the handle is rubberised, so with a small grip adjustment it stays reasonably well positioned. It has a pop up trimmer. It has a stubble trimmer attachment that fits over the foils (not keen to give that a go though). It is cordless. Price point was excellent. The LED battery level indicator is clear and it seems that the battery will deliver the advertised 80mins of shaving per charge - at least while the battery is fresh.

The cons - it has an "intercept trimmer" between the first and second foils which is completely useless and means that the shaving head is "fatter" than 3 foils. If this had been relocated to one side like on my old shaver, it would have been a perfectly capable and usable trimmer. The pop up trimmer is about 25mm wide and in a difficult location to use effectively. It is cordless which means that at some point the battery capacity will fade (planned obsolescence?) The sides of the shaver aren't rubberised (like the old shaver) so can be harder to grip. The shaving head is much wider at the base than at the foils which obscures the vision slightly making it somewhat harder to judge when using a foil for edging the goatee line.

Not perfect but functional and adequate.

Maybe I should have splashed out for one of those more expensive shavers?!

Highly recommended especially for people who don't have a steady enough hand to use a razor – The battery lasts a very long time and after shaving for 7 days straight it still doesn't require recharging. I love that it can be used in the… Read more

shower or with shaving gel / cream and that there is a turbo button which gives extra power when needed. It didn't irritate the skin when shaving but I did apply after shave balm when I was finished. The x7 Limitless gives as close a shave as you could get without using a razor blade with the safety benefit of not being able to cut yourself. Highly recommended especially for people who don't have a steady enough hand to use a razor for one reason or another. It's also quite clean as all the trimmed hairs go in to the machine and you just empty it when done so you don't have clippings flinging all over the bathroom.

Ordinary shaver with a crap battery – I very nicely presented product which gives a very ordinary shave but the main problem is the battery life. I have had the shaver for just under 6… Read more

MThs and I am down to less than 1 week. I understood you were going to get a status of of the battery life but no, it works then stops. I think as a product the shavers with a popup trimmer are better. With the remington the trimmer is seperate. Also the carry case when travelling, when you would use the travel case is far too big to be practical. and like I say the shave itself is just ordinary for what I believe is a premium product.
