Excellent Razor

This is an excellent razor. It is my first electric razor, and I have not had any problems becoming adjusted to it. It is easy to clean, extremely quick, and rather elegant. The color is a little lame-- who wants to sell something called "eggplant" to men. Also, the clear plastic cover for the head is the bane of my existance.

But from the perspective of providing a clean, comfortable, and close shave, it's tops.

Super convenient high performance close shaver

A gift from my wife a year ago,it has been an inseperable companion since and works like a charm every morning. Began with a sensitive setting and moved to Normal over time. Even though this is my first electric shaver, the transition from the blade was uneventful and before long it became an integral part of the morning routine. Atleast 4 other friends have purchased this model on my recommendation and have enjoyed it. One notch below the top of the line in the spectra model line, it is everything you would need off an electric shaver. Along with the sideburns' trimmer, a nose hair trimmer would have completed the toolset required by a man to manage his facial hair.

A Worthy Purchase

I bought an electric shaver because I'm lazy. I used a Mach 3 for about 4 years and then upgraded to Mach 3 Turbo blades. I got a really close shave (I go with and against the grain) and with the exception of the right and left parts of my chin, there were no signs that facial hair even existed there. But this would take me forever, and the last thing I want to do when I wake up is shave. So I decided to buy an electric shaver. I've had the shaver for about two weeks now. I was not very content with my first coulple shaves, but things improved over time.

Pros
- Gets very close. The left and right sides of my chin are still difficult to shave, but I get much closer than I used to.
- Takes half the time to shave.
- There is a little collection compartmant that captures the hair so I can shave in my room while my roommates are taking a shower.
- It comes with 9 settings.

Cons
- Its difficult to shave around the neck. I tend to cut myself a little whenever I try.
- The cap was annoying at first becasue it is difficult to tell which side attaches to the front. I ended up drawing an arrow.
- Cleaing and drying it is kind of a pain.
- Near the end of the battery life, the shaver kind of dies down.

Overall, I am satisfied with my purchase. The instruction manuel recommends changing blades after a year (they cost about 20 dollars I think). I think its worth it.

Norelco 8865XL Spectra Rechargeable Cord/Cordless Shaver

GREAT shaver. Well worth the price! Updated/upgraded from a 10 year old similar model and this one is superb. Used by both husband and wife, the Spectra shaves faces, neck area and legs equally well. Lots of adjustment for closeness. Fits very nicely in the hand. It cleans very easily with the top piece flipping up to the side instead of coming apart separately. Nice feature. Haven't cleaned it under running water yet, our humidity is very high and don't want to worry about it drying completely between uses. QUICK charging and it has a great holder/stand. Would certainly encourage others to buy this product.

Excellent, even for a blade-user

I bought this shaver a while ago, but I wanted to wait at least a month before writing my review, since it's supposed to take about that long before your face is used to an electric razor.

This is my first electric, and I was concerned going into it. I looked at the price of good standard blades, though, and saw how quickly an electric razor would pay for itself. I'll never go back. For the first week, the shave was not as close as I had become accustomed with using a blade. After that, though, I've gotten closer and closer shaves by the week. After a little more than a month of using the Spectra, my skin is now smooth even against the grain. I've gotten back to where I was with a blade.

The Pros:
- Shaving takes easily only half the time as it did with a straight razor.
- I can shave any time, any where. With a blade, if I tried to shave more than once per day, I'd cut myself all up into a bloody mess. With this electric, I do notice some discomfort after having shaved a second time in a day, but it gets a nice close shave. A little after shave takes care of the sting, and I'm good to go again.
- No mess. I really don't miss having to use shaving cream, even my nifty hot-lather shaving cream.

The Cons:
- Motor power seems to wind down a bit towards the end of the battery charge. It's not too bad, but it seems to take longer to shave at the end of the charge, and I don't want to charge it early for fear of damaging the battery.
- This is really a minor quibble, but I thought I'd mention it: Since this razor rinses clean under tap water, what few bits of hair are still left over are sitting in water over night. Every time I use the razor, for the first minute of shaving, it smells very strongly of old, wet hair.

Tips:
- Blade users: Apply less pressure than you're used to. I find I get a better shave when the razor is touching the skin firmly, noticibly, but not pressing in at all.
- Rinse it out every day, and turn the faucet up high. If you let it go a couple days without rinsing, it's much harder to clean out. It only takes a couple seconds, so why not?
- Shave daily. I find that if I let my beard get a little longer the shaver still does a pretty good job. However, there will always be a few hairs that grew too long, curling down, that are not lifted by the razor head. Just shave daily, when you only have stubble, to avoid this.
- Get a makeup mirror! These little mirrors are concave, magnifying your face so you can see where you've missed more easily. I mounted mine to the wall, slightly below my chin. Now I can more easily see if I've shaved my neck well.

Editorial Review :

Equipped with a dial that varies the spring and pressure of its three floating heads through nine settings to suit skin sensitivity, this corded/cordless electric shaver offers customized shaving comfort. For its Spectra models, Norelco has improved the patented Lift and Cut, below-skin shaving technology of its two-stage cutting system, which provides slots for longer hairs and holes for stubble while the floating heads adjust individually to facial contours. A full-width trimmer pops up for neat work on sideburns and mustaches. On the front is an LED meter that tells how many minutes of shaving time remain when the shaver is operating cordless on its lithium-ion battery. A six-minute quick charge is good for a single shave, while a one-hour full charge provides 100 minutes of cordless shaving. The shaver fits the hand beautifully and goes on the road in a travel pouch while automatically adjusting to worldwide voltage variances. It carries a 60-day, full-satisfaction, money-back guarantee and a two-year warranty against defects. --Fred Brack Rechargeable cord/cordless. LCD indicator.
