Customer Reviews of Remington SP-62 Foils and Cutters
Customer Review: Cheapened-out
Summary: 1 Stars
I've been a Remington man all my life (mid-30s) and am only on my third Remington razor--one of them because I dropped and broke it. They're the only thing that could shave my thick facial hair. Replacement cutters have always been great, had to start buying them from Amazon when stores stopped carrying them. Always had great luck.
Until they copped out on the latest design. They "narrowed" the cutters by a blade on each side so it now takes much longer to shave, also the plastic saddle the blades sit in is reduces, and instead of a curved metal blade design they're now tiny washers pressed onto a couple metal rods held by a tiny plastic piece. Very disappointing, doesn't work well, takes longer to shave, don't expect the quality to last long.
May be time to consider the Braun my gal keeps telling me about. Apparently an executive decision by Remington. Poor job on the latest design.
Customer Review: Puzzled ?

Nothing covers my problem in the Amazon menu. I've been trying to contact someone
who can tell me what to do. for my problem listed below.I opened my SP 62 package, it looked completely different than the SP 62's I
had been buying the last two years, after they replaced the DF 10. I tried
them in the razor and I hard time fitting the cover over them, and shaved
with them, but they didn't cut. It seemed like the cutter wasn't getting
fully on my face. I just read some of the reviews which say they were
fine. If I ask for a replacement, I wouldn't want the same foil and cutter.
I could return yours and mine to show you the difference.
Although I'm not sure if the package they arrived in was yours or my old
one.
Can you give me any instructions on how to handle this ?
Thank you,
Dennis Long
Customer Review: Only Fits New Model Shaver
Summary: 2 Stars
When I ordered this cutter set the screen said it was a discontinued item by Remington. So, I assumed that it would fit my older model DA307 shaver. Bad assumption. Guess I should have asked first.
What I received was the newly designed replacement cutter set - it does not fit my older DA307.
Fortunately I had recently purchased a new model DA307 as the older one is getting long in the tooth.
However, it was a diappointment. I won't order from them again.
The discontinued note is now gone from this seller's page, but it still suggests that it's the old design - it says "Only 4 left" as if they are running out of stock of the older design.
Customer Review: Sometimes the older is better.
Summary: 4 Stars
It's good to be able to obtain spares / replacements for a manufacture discontinued electric razor. However, it appears that for some reason the 'foil & cutter' for this razor has been re designed. The new design makes the cutting width slightly smaller, this is not too much of a problem but does mean the old and the new 'foil & cutter' are not interchangeable. I accept there are now many so called new super electric razors on the market but after trying various new electric razors, some of which were very expensive I still find my old 'Remmington Micro Screen Two' one of the best providing that is the foil and cutter are regularly replaced.Customer Review: Should include an extra spring
Summary: 3 Stars
When you need a new blade, you need a new blade. In order to maintain the superior shave of an electric (over a traditional razor blade) you've got to replace the heads periodically. There's a minor design flaw in these Remingtons in that the little spring for the cutters easily pops the cutters off when you've removed the foil to clean it. When the tightly wound new spring pops, it really flies, and it's tiny, and when you just woke up and lose this little tiny spring in your bathroom, it's just gone, very very frustrating. And, this package only comes with one spring, you can't buy a single spring.
