Great Shaver

by vchand Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Jun 30 '05
Pros: Quick, compact, safe, and easy to use.
Cons: The cleaning gets tiresome after a while.
I bought this shaver because I was going on vacation and needed something that could help me shave with less work while on the go. This is the shaver that I liked the most because all you have to do is turn it on and shave away. No rinsing needed. ...

Norelco 8894XL - The Ultimate Electric Shaver

by svt_amateur Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Jul 21 '04
Pros: Sleek, Comfortable, Amazing Digital Display, Sensitivity Settings, Close Shave, Easy to Clean, Large Battery Life
Cons: Still not as close as a manual shave, but maybe one day :)
I am a gadget freak, and this extends even to shavers. Ever since I was able to purchase one at age 16 I have used electric razors. I have used the Norelco 8894XL for over a year now and have found this razor to be the best electric razor I have ever ...

Perfect Electric Shaver

by jonmnelson , Dec 15 '03
Pros: Super close, comfortable and fast shave.
Cons: Expensive.
For years I used Gillette razors -- Sensor and Mach III -- and while that Monday morning shave was usually great, the rest of the week was something less. I disliked having to buy blades and shaving cream all the time and was looking for something better ...

Why would you upgrade? Well...

by xlugxmiop Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Oct 21 '03
Pros: clean, comfortable shave, nice design, easy to clean, solid
Cons: one of the most expensive razors out there
(Most of my review will focus on the differences between this model and the 6885XL, which is a current mid-price razor from Norelco.) I've been using Norelco rotary razors for 20 years now, and I've been quite happy with their products. (I recently ...

Great Razor, but Pricey

by mgbarry , Apr 03 '03
Pros: Very close shave yet easy on sensitive skin, a snap to clean
Cons: Expensive, who cares about James Bond?
I was very happy with my Norelco Reflex Action 5885XL, which recently died after about 6 years of use. I opted for a new top-of-the-line Norelco because I knew it would last me for many years to come. I originally hesitated... $180 is a LOT of money...

by mskvarenina , Aug 11 '03
Pros: Great looks, cool informative display
Cons: Not so close shave, sideburn trimmer hard to use.
I've always been a Braun man. My last 3 shavers were Braun (I usually replace a shaver ever 3 years ...

Terrific electric with few downsides

by bobfandango , Jun 03 '04
Pros: A good quality shave suitable for sensitive skin
Cons: Still need to manually shave around the goatee
This thing is like a sleek running shoe. Light just sort of falls into it. Okay okay, enough geeking out... Anyhow, I've been using the 8894XL for a couple of weeks. However, it didn't take long to notice the quality and comfort of the shave. I have ...

Philips, Norelco Spectra 8894 XL Shaver

by jerryg50 , Jan 01 '03
Pros: Easy to use, extremely comfortable, and easy to clean.
Cons: I could not find anything outstanding.
Excellent shaver. I generally change shavers about every 5 years. About 30 years ago, I bought my first Philips (Noelco), and never found better. Every time I tried a different shaver, I returned it shortly after. This shaver is extremely easy to use,...

THE BEST IN THE WORLD OF ELECTRIC SHAVERS LIVES UP TO THE HYPE...

by odor007 , Sep 16 '03
Pros: Design, looks, comfort, speed, closeness, fast charging, EVERYTHING IS PERFECT!
Cons: None - worth every penny.
After using my trusty Mach 3 for years with shaving gel, I decided that a faster alternative would be more desirable - hence, an electric shaver. I had used my friend's old $70 Braun, and thought that it gave a crappy shave, took too long to get any clos ...

Best Electric Shaver Ever

by rweber05 , Jan 01 '03
Pros: Best Norelco Shave Ever
Cons: None
I have used Norelco razors for over 30 years. This shaver by far gives the closest least irritating shave ever. Battery life is excellent. Nine adjustments work extremely well. Adjusts for all parts of face and neck for the closest must comfortable shave...

I never thought I would switch to Electric!!

by bearcat5 , Jan 10 '04
Pros: Nice look and feel, cool led screen, easy to clean and QUIET!!!
Cons: Can't think of any!!!
I have used sensor blades with edge gel since I can remember. I have tried every blade out there and thought I was getting the best shave possible with this combination. I have tried electric razors over the years and never found one I kept more than a ...

Great Shave!

by changcy , Aug 13 '03
Pros: Closest shave I've ever had with an electric.
Cons: Included stand cannot charge with supplied cord
I've used norelco shavers ever since I've been a kid with peach fuzz. I've used several different generations and reiterations of norelco shavers and though I found them far more comfortable than other shavers, never gave quite the close shave a regular b ...
