This is sadly a dreadful cheap shaver. Target was selling it for half price, and now I know why. After a lengthly first shave with way too much tugging/pulling of hair, I opened it to find some cheap brass-looking cutting heads that aren't very sharp. Contrasting it to past shavers and a new Norelco I just bought to replace this, the heads are very poor. Add to that an awkward triangular body shape that is an irritant to hold while moving around the face, an LED 'low charge' indicator that looks like it is on when it isn't, and when the charge is low it doesn't slow down it just abruptly stops. I wish I'd returned it immediately, but used it for nearly a month and my opinion of it remains the same. After a more careful search I've replaced it with a Norelco 7180XL which goes for about the same price, and it is clearly superior (with a full review to come later). The best thing I can say about the R600? It was easy to remove from its plastic packaging, far easier than many products.

I'm not sure how long Remington thinks it can sell a product like this without permanently damaging their reputation, but as another reviewer said this is my last Remington product.

My earlier model of the Remington Microflex rotary finally gave up after more than 6 years of daily use. I am very happy with this new model and hope it is going to last me as long as its predecessor.

I have had a self-cleaning Braun, a top of the line Norelco and now the Remington. Have always had to do clean-ups on neck both sides with regular razor until I got the Remington. Cleans easily, has the right speed, (Norelco RPMS are too slow, so yanks beard in spots.) Remington leaves no razor burns and price is lower as are replacement blades and no expense for "special" cleaners.

It's give a very smooth and close shave, almost the best ever.

Good close shave, but difficult to clean thoroughly.
Holds a good charge and is easy to handle. Popup attachment for sideburns and around ears is great. Would highly recommend it.

The shaver cut worse then the one I have at home with worn out blades. I sent it back to the manufacture and told them of the problem. They sent it back to me. I will never buy a Remington brand product again.

I was pleased with both the price and the closeness of the shave. It is not top of the line ,but it a reasonably priced and effective shaver

Fast, fast shaves....go over an area once, and it it done. I can shave in perhaps 30 seconds if time is short!.

I have been using norelco shavers for 45 years. After reading consumer's reports & the above interviews, I decided to try this shaver. Everything
I read about it is true. Quiet and a very smooth shave in half the time
as my old one. Highly recommend!

I have used an electric shaver for past 20 plus years. This gave a decent shave for the price. However the head cover was very poorly designed and the clip mechanism that holds the pieces together broke within the first two months I owned it. I would spend a little more money for a better shaver.
