Customer Reviews of Philips Norelco 7240XL Cord/Cordless Rechargeable Shaver
Customer Review: Great Shaver
Summary: 5 Stars
Starting out in '50's with a Remington and into '60's with the blade, I continued with blade until I received the 7240XL. My hand had started to shake and I was using lots of styptic stick so decided to try an electric. I found the 7240XL on line and read at the time 19 reviews which convinced me to give it a try. I cannot say enough good things about this shaver. The shave I get now is equal to or better than the blades and no styptic. I have found that the less pressure I apply the better the shave. The first few days were difficult for my neck but once I reduced the pressure on the shaver I have not had an issue. It holds a charge for about 10 days and is very quiet. Rinsing under the faucet is a real plus. I highly recommend this shaver. I wish I had tried it sooner.
Customer Review: As Good as an electric will get
Summary: 5 Stars
I can't improve over most of the review's that are already printed for this product, but I hate to shave. I used a Remington for two years and eventually got away from it. I wanted to purchase, one more time, a razor that would at least give me a reasonably good shave without going to take a loan out to purchase it. So after reading the reviews for this razor I bought it. I really like it. I will admit that I cannot shave without a pre-shave. Not withstanding, It is a good ride for my face. I do not use it in the shower. Actually I have used one before, not this one, and the razor pulled more hair out than it cut. So I won't recommend this razor to be used in a wet environment. Well worth the cost, and you can buy replacement heads at WalMart! What a deal what a deal.Customer Review: Excellent shave
Summary: 5 Stars
Like a previous reviewer, I have used Norelco rotary razors for almost 30 years, with an 850RX for the past 10+. I have used the 7240XL for a month now. I bought this based on previous reviews and the incredible $32.99 Amazon sale price.
Positives:
1. Shaving is very smooth & close. Shaves older beard without pulling.
2. Extremely quiet.
3. Easy to clean with tap water or brush. Stands upright on counter without need of a base.
4. Shape provides a good grip regardless of how it is held.
Negatives:
1. I prefer the trimmer location off the end/top vs "out the side".
2. May not be the most attractive razor, but who cares?
Customer Review: A Great Razor With A Futuristic Look!
Summary: 5 Stars
I was hesitant to buy this razor to replace my 20 year old Norelco Triple Header, but after charging it up and using it, all my reservations were gone.
This razor shaves nice and close and is extremely quiet versus my old razor (it sounds so quiet, I think once in a while the charge is going down, but it's not!). The ability to rinse it out with water to clean it is a nice feature not to mention I think it is light weight and easy to hold. If you can get past the unusual looks, you'll like the feel and quality of this razor and it stays charged for a long time.
The ultimate test? I'd buy it again in a heartbeat!
Customer Review: Excellent Shaver
Summary: 5 Stars
I had only one electric shaver before this one, a Remington, which performed well even after 4 years of use. The biggest problem I have with this shaver is that is so quiet that it makes me always feel like it's not charged :)
Anyway, since my skin is used to being shaved this way, I have to say that I'm very satisfied with its performance; it doesn't burn my skin, doesn't pull hair, slides very easy, is very easy to clean and maintain, and keeps charge for a decent amount of time. I recommend it to everyone who wants to try it out, since it does come with a 21-day money back guarantee from the manufacturer.
