Customer Reviews of Philips Norelco 7140 Cord/Cordless Rechargeable Shaver
Customer Review: Excellent Razor for the features and price
Summary: 5 Stars
As always, Amazon delivered the product in record time. I've been using it now for about 3 weeks and feel it was a good buy. It's extremely quiet which was not something I was accustomed too. It does an excellent job and I'm pleased with it. I especially like the ability to clean it under the facuet without having to buy expensive cleaning solvent! Plus, it can be used as a "corded shaver" that my old one was not capable of. At this point, I would have to say that I'd buy it again. The only "down side" I can think of is that it doesn't display the remaining time of the battery. But, I knew that going in and since it also functions as a corded razor - that's really not an issue. Excellent razor for the price!Customer Review: Not a great shaver
Summary: 3 Stars
I had been using the old Norelco 5801XL and it gave a good shave.
Unfortunately, after many years - the battery is giving out and
lasts about 15-20 minutes. So after reading the reviews here I initially bought the Philips Norelco 6940LC - unaware it is a corded shaver. But that really gives a close shave.
Even when you turn it on - you can hear the 7140 is turning slower than the 6940 or 5801. The only way to get a close shave is by pressing hard into the skin with the shaver. And if you are sweaty - forget it. The 6940 or 5801 gave an 80% shave when sweaty whereas the 7140 gives a 50% shave - and I need to go over it later to get a proper close shave.
Customer Review: Excellent value
Summary: 5 Stars
It's so quiet that at first it seemed like it must need charging but my first shave with it was as good as any from my previous electric razors. This one replaced a 3 year old Remington triple head that's battery would no longer take a charge. The Remington was on it's third set of heads and probably due for another set. None of it's previous heads had become dull, they just locked up and quit moving. I selected this unit for it's easy cleaning (the easiest cleaning I've ever had) and it's corded capability. Instead of ruining it's battery by constant recharging, I charge it, get about twenty shaves before it quits, plug it in to finish the shave, recharge it for another 20 shaves.Customer Review: Five Stars for under 50!

First of this product is priced under 50 dollars so it is an entry level product. It is my first electric shaver and it works amazingly. At first you will feel skin irritation however after you get used to it there should be none. It shaves closes than the Phenom. After shaving with this you will never switch back to a razor. The battery last a week, while the quick charge is great when it does finally run out. If your looking for a gift for a high school Grad this is what they need. Especially in the dorms take it from me, Nothing helps achieve those grades like a close shave.
I bought one for myself and then 2 more as gifts.
Customer Review: Great shaver to replace my razors...
Summary: 5 Stars
I was a Mach 3 turbo user until I got this shaver. I never knew that the the electronic shaver can shave almost as good as the best razor can do. And this is much more convenient for me as I do not have to wet my face and shave for couple minutes. Of course I do not have that much hair to shave on my face like the previous reviewer.
The trimmer works very well, even for "down there", now I can keep all my body hair trimmed...
The battery of this thing lasts for weeks and charging is fairly quick. Clean of the shaver is also very easy, all you need is hot running water. Entire shaver is water proof.
