Product Description

Amazon.com Review

This Remington shaver, equipped with three independently floating rotary heads that flex to follow facial contours, delivers a smooth shave while operating either with a cord or without. It also employs more cutting blades (self-sharpening for consistent cutting) than ordinary shavers. A full-width, pop-up trimmer quickly trims mustache, sideburns, and beards. Lights on the handle monitor the battery's charge: green when recharging is underway, red when recharging is required. Ideal for travel, the shaver charges in just five minutes for a single shave (full charge takes one hour), automatically adjusts to various voltages around the world, rinses clean, and comes in a storage pouch. Remington offers a full-refund satisfaction guarantee within 30 days and warranties the shaver for two years against defects. --Fred Brack

2.0 out of 5 stars Lack of comfort kills this product, August 28, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Remington R-9100 MicroFlex TCT Cord/Cordless Rechargeable Rotary Shaver (Health and Beauty)

I tried this product but quickly returned it.

Unfortunately I agree with the previous reviewer. When sliding the shaver across my face it almost feels like its scratching rather than gliding. It was especially painful when doing the neck and jawline. I blaming the sharp edges on the heads for this lack of comfort. The Norelco Quadra is much more comfortable to use with smooth , well rounded edges on the heads. I feel that it doesn't shave as close as the Norelco but perhaps this is because I didn't give myself time to adjust to it.

In all fairness it is solidly built and has a feels plenty powerful. Trimmer is much more effective than the Norelco Quadra. It also can be washed.

Pass on this one. Go for the Norelco Quadra.

1.0 out of 5 stars Stick with Norelco, August 7, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Remington R-9100 MicroFlex TCT Cord/Cordless Rechargeable Rotary Shaver (Health and Beauty)

After 25 years of Norelco, I decided the Remington sounded like a real improvement. More blades, faster motor. But they forgot to mention shave comfort - or lack of. After each shave, I had a nice red face from razor irritation. Thinking it would go away, I stuck it for 4 weeks. No improvement. Returned it and bought a Norelco. Back to close comfortable shaves.

1.0 out of 5 stars It makes my skin bleed., September 5, 2002

Bernie Tech (Iowa, United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Remington R-9100 MicroFlex TCT Cord/Cordless Rechargeable Rotary Shaver (Health and Beauty)

First I thought that the name "TCT" (Total Closeness Technology) would made this a good shaver, becuase I have been looking for a shaver that can give me a nice, clean shave. This shaver gives a pretty nice shave except for one thing. The edges of these three round cutters are pretty sharp. Every time I shave, my face gets red and extremely irritated. Sometimes I bleed. It feels like I am scratching my face with a sharp scissors. This is my second Remington products and both of them are terrible. I would go for Braun, since it has a good worldwide reputation on making good shavers.
