Customer Reviews of Philips Norelco 7240XL Cord/Cordless Rechargeable ShaverCustomer Review: A great shave.
I just picked this bad boy up a few days ago, and I have to say I'm incredibly impressed. My old shaver was an OLD Remington Microflex, the old cobalt-blue ones. It served me well, but never really got as close as I'd like with a shave. I was usually left with stubble akin to diamond-coated sandpaper. Forget cuddling and kissing the lady after a few minutes with that thing. However, ol' Blue had a slight battery malfunction (it died) and crapped a brick. It was out of warranty, and a new lithium battery would cost me as much as the whole assembly to both buy and replace. So I figured it was time for a new shaver. Went out and picked up the 7240XL on both looks and brand; Norelco makes a fine shaver and let's be honest, here. The 7240XL looks like it could not only shave off the toughest, most brutal of all hairs, but also defend your home from intrusion should you wave it at an attacker. Despite the jagged, robotic appearance (which is half of why it's so darn cool), the grips set in to the body make it surprisingly easy to hold when in use. Rubber pads are in the right places, indents are shaped to fit pretty much any hand. I was really awed when I turned it on. Most shavers have a horrific, pigs-being-slaughtered metal grinding noise when the blades spin up. The 7240XL has a whir and a slight scrape to it, and even that's quiet. The only time I really hear any loud noises is when passing it through thick beard hair. The pop-up trimmer on the back is very very efficient, in that I was able to shave down half of my beard and still look like I had a beard afterwards. It's also placed a decent way down from the rotating blades, so you don't accidentally give yourself a haircut or a bald spot when trimming your beard/sideburns/mustache/whatever. As for the shave itself? It's incredibly close. Comparable with the actual razors I've used over the past few years, which is saying something since I like those crazy 5-blade models. Not only will I be saving money on razor packs and shaving cream, I'll be able to show my friends a self-grooming utility that looks like it could take a bullet and gives me the best shave I've had in years. Five closely-trimmed stars.
