Customer Reviews of Philips Norelco 7110 Cordless Rechargeable ShaverCustomer Review: Great product Summary: 4 Stars
Purchased for my husband for Christmas, and he loves it. Says he has experienced no hair pulling or other irritation, likely b/c he lets it grow out a little between shaves, 3-4 days. It does work best when the hair is a bit more than rough stubble...better to use a regular razor if you need a close shave when it is still short, like 1-2 days after a close shave. He did find the 8 hr fist charge annoying, and I keep reminding him that this type of battery works best when it is allowed to drain to near empty before recharging or it reduces battery life. Other than remembering that, it is a great product and he has used it several times, happy each time!
Customer Review: Norelco no longer makes decent shavers Summary: 1 Stars
I chose this shaver because it had mostly good reviews, but I think only people with peach fuzz whiskers are going to get a good shave from this. On the first shave after fully charging, it took 8 minutes to get a "complete" shave and I ended up cutting my neck also. The only other time I have cut myself with an electric shaver is when the blades were very old and dull. This should not happen with a brand new shaver. I took it back the next day and got a Remington R-800 instead. Unfortunately, the Remington is not as good as my old Norelco 7616X, but it's a darn site better than this Norelco.
Customer Review: Bogus Battery? Summary: 2 Stars
I was looking forward to this razor, in part due to the rave reviews on Amazon. I must have gotten a rotten apple because I only get maybe, at the most, 5 minutes of shave time before the red light comes on. I charge the battery for much longer than the stated 8 hours and it still won't hold the charge for long. Just tried Norelco's online "live" customer support to find out how to return for service/replacement and the agents are 1) not very knowledgeable, and 2) unable to stay connected with me for more than a couple minutes. So far, a waste of 25 bucks, but at least it was only 25 bucks.
Customer Review: Mixed feelings Summary: 4 Stars
Overall, I am kind of happy with this shaver, but if you need a quick shave, go look somewhere else (most likely you'll need to spend some more money).
PROS:
* Inexpensive
* Easy to wash with water (a killer feature at this price-point)
* Low noise, a lot less than other electric shaver I used before.
* Cordless.
CONS:
* Slow. I can't get a decent shave in less than ten minutes.
* Battery with memory effect: you need to wait for the battery to die before recharging. I get caught in the middle of a shave every few days.
Customer Review: Mediocre at best Summary: 2 Stars
I've owned other Norelco shavers and this one might be my last; The cons outweigh the pros. Given the price, I expect a better performer. I'm searching for a new razor instead of buying replacement blades.
Pros:
1. Lightweight (see con #1)
2. Rinsable blades
Cons
1. Wall wort makes it cumbersome to travel with, and you'll have to because...
2. Battery life seems much shorter than advertised, which is a problem because...
3. The shave isn't very close so you'll spend more time shaving.
Your morning routine deserves better.
