Product Description

Amazon.com

Remington produced the world’s first electric shaver in 1937, and continues to be a leader in shaving technology. Titanium is the company’s latest break-through. When coated with titanium, blades stay sharper longer than stainless steel for an extra close, comfortable shave. Ergonomically designed with no-slip insets, this model features three ultra-flexing round heads that float independently to hug face and neck contours. Moreover, the heads are ultra-thin, which allows the blades to get as close to the skin as possible. A nifty one-inch trimmer pops up to define sideburns, mustaches, and necklines. An added benefit of this razor is that it can be used either with the 5-foot stretch cord or without, and features quick charge. A one-hour quick charge gives 40 minutes of shaving time, while a five-minute charge is enough for one shave. This model features a green lighted battery gauge that indicates remaining power in 20% increments, then turns red when only 20% remains. It also features a head replacement reminder light. Cleaning this razor is a breeze--squeeze the release buttons to flip up the head attachment, then blow, brush, or rinse out any stubble. A cleaning brush is included, along with a zippered, padded carry pouch and protective head guard. The high-performance turbo boost motor automatically converts to other voltages worldwide, making it great for travel. Remington covers the shaver with a 30-day money-back guarantee, and a two-year warranty against defects.--Ann Bieri

5.0 out of 5 stars AS GOOD AS IT GETS, May 8, 2005

This review is from: Remington R-9270 Titanium Rotary MicroFlex Ultra Cord/Cordless Mens Shaver with Turbo Boost Motor (Health and Beauty)

While no electric will shave as closely or smoothly as a regular safety razor (try the Schick Quattro)this Remington comes in as a close second. Aside from a great shave, there is no razor pull or burn and no break-in period with the Titanium head. Although the head is a wee bit awkward to open, once mastered, the razor is simple to rinse and easy to maintain. While I would not dribble on a basketball court with this or any electric, it is constructed sturdily and should provide a long life. Remington must have given this baby serious thought and the result is a splendid product.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good shaver, not great, but good, October 12, 2005

This review is from: Remington R-9270 Titanium Rotary MicroFlex Ultra Cord/Cordless Mens Shaver with Turbo Boost Motor (Health and Beauty)

This is a decent shaver for the price... (hopefully you buy it for less than fifty).

It does a very good job on my blond weak stubble, so perhaps I'm not the best person to review, as my hair is fine and not too hard to shave off in the first place.

The electric shaver irritates my skin a bit, but all shavers do that, I was hoping this might be better. It isn't. (Nivea lotion works wonders however).

One thing I noticed is on a FULL charge, if you use the shaver right after unplugging it from the wall, it works AWESOME. The next day, not so much (the motor sounds like it is going slower). The day after that, a bit slower, and usually within 4-5 days it is struggling to keep me clean shaven. So, I'd recommend this shaver to use at your house, and keep plugged in all the time, and you will not be disappointed, it's a great shaver. Not the best one to keep in your car for 5 o'clock shadow or for travelling in the Amazon jungle with no power outlets in sight.

Great clean shave. Good value for money. However the battery is weak. At best I get 3-4 shaves and don't even think about leaving uncharged for a few days, it will go dead.
