Customer Reviews of Philips Norelco 6423 Reflex Plus Corded Men's Shaving System
Customer Review: It is only a month or so old so things could change...
Summary: 4 Stars
The corded shaver is low priced but gives a more confortable and clean shave than my previous which was 3 times the cost.
It is only a month or so old so things could change,but at this point I am very satisfied.

Customer Review: The Norelco is extremely quiet and shaves very close.
Summary: 4 Stars
I have been using manual razors all my life, and will (probably) continue as such. I bought my first electric razor, a cheap basic Remington 2-3 years ago, for out of town vacation trips convenience. The Remington still works, but is somewhat disappointing, and one of these days will get thrown away. I purchased the Norelco 6423 recently, before a trip to Italy, due to its dual voltage. What a difference compared to the Remington. The Norelco is extremely quiet and shaves very close. I am thick haired and do not have a sensitive skin. The Norelco does as great a job on the neck as on the face, and no irritation whatsoever. The trimmer is also just fine. It has been a very pleasant surprise (from Remington), and I am not sure what the more expensive models do to justify the higher price tag. I would definitely recommend it for anyone looking to try an electric shaver, and would purchase it again. The only reason I held off the 5th star: Force of habit and comfort zone for many years with manual razors, which still give the closest (and fastest) shave.Customer Review: It was as close and comfy as I'd expect from a Norelco.
Summary: 5 Stars
I was shopping for replacement cutters and combs for a Norelco Micro Action (formerly Lift & Cut [formerly Rotatract]) shaver and noticed that for less than $10 more I could have a whole new Norelco shaver. I was sold.
Norelco Reflex Plus shavers combine 4 features pioneered by Norelco and improved over time. Rotary heads reduce the vibration common to reciprocating shavers. Floating heads individually hug the skin. Lift and Cut blades gently pull whiskers into the cutter for a closer shave. Everything rides on a set of pivoting platforms that bulge slightly at the center of the head assembly. The bulge allows the heads to maintain contact with the contours of difficult to shave spots like the concave hollows of the neck below the chin.
I've been a Norelco man from my first crop of peachfuzz to my current orchard of gray quills, so the first shave wasn't a surprise for my skin. It was as close and comfy as I'd expect from a Norelco.
The real revelation was the sound. The previous Lift and Cut was like shaving with a Black & Decker DustBuster. The Reflex Plus is so quiet, you can actually hear the cutters slice off the whiskers and then fall silent on the next pass over the same area. This is a real help for those times when a mirror isn't nearby. You could actually shave by the sound alone!
A somewhat poignant note: Models at the economy end of the Norelco line are now made in China and lack carrying bags of any kind. When I travel, I roll my shaver in an article of clothing, usually a T-shirt, so the carrying case is no biggie. Still, I miss seeing the words "MADE IN HOLLAND" on the bottom of every Norelco I've owned.
Times may change but at least the quality of the shave has only improved.
Customer Review: Better sharp teeth can improve it.
Summary: 4 Stars
Norelco has a better motor than others razors.
Better sharp teeth can improve it. I dislike Norelco
recomendation to replace them once a year, at least
you don't need to discard the razor six months after.
Customer Review: After using Remington Microscreen shavers for many years...
Summary: 5 Stars
After using Remington Microscreen shavers for many years, I tried a Norelco 6423LC Reflux Plus Corded Men's Shaving System and found it very satisfactory. It takes a little practice to get used to but now I get a good close shave, including under my nose. I am very happy with it. It is simple, with few features to go wrong.
