Summary: Great Shaving System
Comment: My husband loved this. Great Shaver....great cleaning system. Performs as advertised.
However, he will keep his old Norelco for traveling. New one would be bulky to travel with if he took the cleaning system with it.

Summary: Skip the fancy technology, stick with their basic units
Comment: I am a long time user of Norelco shavers. Recently I purchased their new 1050X ARCITEC shaver. I do NOT like it. The grip (motor unit) is too small and not comfortable to hold while shaving. The floating head unit is too flimsy. The unit requires that the shaving units be opened and cleaned on EVERY use - a pain in the neck. I like the basic Norelco units and really like their SPEED-XL series shavers, which by the way are much less expensive than the Arcitec units. I my estimation, the Arcitec shavers are not worth their expense and I regret wasting my money on one. Stick with their standard units and enjoy their performance.

Summary: My least favorite Norelco yet
Comment: This is probably my 5th Norelco in 20 years. I have tended to buy a higher-up model each time and I was happy until the Arcitec. For a while it seemed to give a so-so shave but i spent a *lot* of time going over areas and trying to get stray whiskers.
Now, after only a few months, the blades have become very dull, and it is useless. I pulled an older Norelco out of a travel kit and am using that for now. The replacement blade head is about $35 and I am not sure I will bother. At the rate this went I could spend $140 a year on replacements. And everybody seems out of stock, anyway. I wonder why :(
I think guys who rate this highly must either have very easy beards or be suffering from cognitive dissonance -- I spent a lot of dough so it *has* to be good!

Summary: Not thrilled so far
Comment: I just picked this up this evening and unboxed it a few minutes ago. I'm already a bit disappointed with it so far. I had read the reviews here on Amazon, and knew that some people were finding a rough shave with it. I haven't had a chance to try that yet ... but the cleaning system is a bit of a disappointment.
First off, the cleaning solution that they provide contains no alcohol. My Remington with cleaning system had an alcohol-based solution, and I was always sure my razor was clean and sterilized. But this? No alcohol? Hmm.
Secondly - my Remington (and the Brauns, too) had a small filter packet that was supposed to catch all the little bits of whiskers that were going through the cleaning solution. This one? No such thing. So you mean weeks-old whiskers are going to be floating around in the non-alcohol based cleaning solution? No thanks.
The "unplug after it's fully charged" thing will probably be a bit annoying - but I have a feeling some people are worrying a bit too much about this. I left my Remington in the stand constantly for 5 years. Eventually the battery burned out - and I realize it was probably my fault (I didn't read the manual) but I don't think you need to get obsessive like some reviewers have here and get it unplugged *immediately* after it's done with its cycle. When you get home from work in the evening would probably be find. Just give it a full charge once every several days.
Even though I haven't even given it a full charge yet, I have a feeling it's going to be going back and I'll be buying the Braun instead - even though my face seems to prefer a rotary.

Summary: Honest Review here
Comment: i purchased this norelco from best buy it looked cool and was the most expensive one there so i figured it has to be good. came home was very excited opened it was very stylish i had a light 5 ocklock shadow going on so i decided to shave it. i had to go over FIVE times to cut most of my beard off and it left behind many little hairs. very sloppy job.i spent a little more and got the BRAUN shaver which is 10 times better even though it doesnt look as stylish and is bigger.
