Customer Reviews of Norelco 5655X Deluxe Advantage Wet/Dry Cordless Rechargeable Men's ShaverCustomer Review: The best electric razor ever!!!!! Summary: 5 Stars
I have used electric razors for years. I have sensitive skin, and can only use a razor/shaving cream once or twice a week, tops. I used to use a Braun electric razor, but after buying the Norelco Advantage in summer 1999, I'll never go back to "dry" electric razors again.The Advantage is great for so many reasons. The thing I like best is that you can clean the razor with water. This is so much better than the air can and brush that I used to use to clean my Braun. As far as the actual shaving process, the ability to use warm water on the razor and then put it on your face is just great, it makes the shaving experience very pleasant. I also like the lotion packs you can use. I, myself, use shaving cream while I shave w/ this razor, and like the way it works/feels. The lotion thing might look like a gimick, but you have to realize that this razor is made to run best with some kind of lubrication. That's why I find the shaving cream/ lotion combo to be the best. Also, this razor works great in the shower. The lotion refills are about $1 each (they come in five-packs, and are about $5 at Target). This may seem expensive, but I usually only replace a lotion pack every two weeks or so. The charger is great. They say to keep it on the charger all the time, but I don't do that. I just charge it full, and then use it for a while. I charge it up every two weeks, or so. But even then, it doesn't even need it. You could go weeks without charging, it's that good. I used to bring the charger w/ me on vacation, but I don't anymore. I just charge it full before leaving, and then throw the razor in my suitcase. You'll run out of lotion before you run out of power. I have an older version of this razor. I bought one for my father this past Christmas, and noticed that they updated the body material. It's now a more rough feel, I guess for better grip. Also, it's a different shade of blue now. It's a very nice design. I love gadgets that are really well designed for both looks and funcationality, and this one has both. The travel kit that comes with it now is kinda cheap. When I bought mine in 1999, it came with a really nice travel kit, but now it comes w/ a cheaper feeling case. But, that's small stuff. I still use a traditional razor (I love the new Schick X-treme) to shave below my chin, just because no electric ever gets that area ever, so I don't fault Norelco for that. I can't really think of any other negatives of this product. I love this razor, and if you are looking to either replace your current electric, or are thinking of entering the electric razor world for the first time, I know you will not be disapointed.
