Customer Reviews of Remington R-5130NB Flex 360 Cord/Cordless Rechargeable Men's Rotary ShaverCustomer Review: Excellent. Close, quick shave. Summary: 5 Stars
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
I don't want to take up your time repeating the 5130NB's pros and cons which have been reported by those who have reviewed it before me. Instead, I'd like to make a few points that haven't been mentioned very often or at all.
Remington wants you to use this shaver for 4 weeks before you decide whether you like it or not. According to them, your skin and beard require that much time to adjust to the 5130NB. I urge you to follow their advice. I'm not sure if it's entirely a matter of one's face adapting to the new shaver or, rather, the hand learning the proper way to move and press and position it, or some combination of the two. But I can tell you that the first few times I used it, I was not impressed with the Remington's comfort. I liked the closeness of the shave and the quickness, but I got quite a bit of "razor burn." However, now that the 4 week try-out is over, I still like the fast, close shave - superior to the Norelco I had been using before - but now there is virtually no discomfort.
In reading the reviews here, I see a number of reports about the shaving head coming apart in use. I have experienced no problems of this nature. I suspect that Remington took note of the complaints and made an engineering change to their shaver without changing the model number. The flexing heads in my 5130NB are held in place by a robust 3-armed metal clip which would make it impossible for them to leave unexpectedly. In fact, to take the flexing heads out of the head assembly for monthly cleaning you must pop open the head assembly, rotate the clip before you can remove it and only then can you remove the flexing heads.
When fully charged, the 5130NB can deliver about 30 minutes of shaving time. This gives me just about a week's worth of shaves. I'd actually like a bit more, but it's a small quibble. If this is an issue for you, the next model up, the 7130, gives 60 minutes per charge.
I really like the 5130NB. It has replaced my Norelco Arcitec, which costs several times as much, in my morning routine.
