Customer Reviews of Philips Norelco 6701X Cool Skin Lotion Dispensing Shaver

Customer Review: Good shave, no trimmer, lousy power system
Summary: 3 Stars

I've had this for a week now. I have a very heavy beard that goes in all directions. This unit is at the bottom of their Coolskin line and uses their older shaving head technology, by the way (all slots vs their new technology which uses a combination of slots + holes). I use it with shaving foam, not their expensive Nivea packets. I get a reasonably close shave, though it's difficult to shave under my nose and under my chin, thos areas never get as close as I want. The unit feels cheap and uses NiCad batteries -- this is the biggest problem I have with it. NiCads suffer from memory effect unless you frequently let it run down all the way (and as you can't run this unit while corded that presents a problem! They actually recommend that you let it lose almost all its power before recharging, I guess you're supposed to turn it on and go away). On other products that use NiCads the charging unit itself will first dishcarge the battery thus eliminating the memory effect, but not this charger. Also, the charger will not prevent overcharging -- you can't leave it in the charger more than 8 hours or it will shorten the battery life! In my view these are fatal flaws. I'm sending it back. By the way, it does NOT include a trimmer.

Note: I've since discovered the Remington MS3-3700 and recommend that shaver. See my review of it
