Product Description

Amazon.com

Though the most basic of Norelco’s Reflex Plus shavers, this corded model still delivers what the Reflex is known for--a smooth, flexible shave that responds to the contours of your face. Equipped with a multi-directional flexible surface and three individually floating heads, the shaver automatically adjusts as it moves over your jaw line and cheekbones, keeping as close as possible to the skin. Meanwhile, Norelco’s patented Lift and Cut system uses 45 lifters and 45 rotating blades to gently raise hair before cutting it--the result is a shave that goes even deeper than the skin surface.

This shaver comes with a completely removable, self-contained hair chamber to trap shavings and a full-width pop-up trimmer for sideburns and moustaches. The removable cord and automatic worldwide voltage simplify travel. The shaver comes with a protective razor cap, a cleaning brush, and a cobalt casing that is attractive without flash. Norelco backs the unit with a 60-day satisfaction guarantee and a two-year warranty. --Emily Bedard

4.0 out of 5 stars good basic shaver, July 2, 2004

The 6423LC shaves closer than my 10-year-old Norelco/Philishave, (also corded -- I find the cordless models have insufficient power) even when both have brand-new heads. And it irritates my skin less, except when my beard is several days long: the 6423LC lacks an adjustable closeness setting that would let you set it less close to avoid irritating your skin too much on those days. But for those of you who shave every day or two this is a good choice.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wake up to the sound of a clean, close shave., August 4, 2005

This review is from: Philips Norelco 6423LC Reflex Plus Corded Men's Shaving System (Health and Beauty)

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.

The first thing I noticed about this shaver is that it weighs half of the 10 year old rechargable Norelco 300SX it replaced, due to it not having batteries inside. Also, this shaver is much quieter and is less irritating to my sensitive skin than the old shaver.
