Smooth, Non irritating, Great, January 25, 2004
This review is from: Remington WDF-6000 Smooth & Silky Ultra Plus Shaver, Rechargeable (Health and Beauty)
The Remington WDF-6000, like any product, has it's strengths and weaknesses. Most definitely, this product's strengths outweight its weaknesses.
I have very sensitive skin, and normal razors would leave me with little red bumps, and a burning sensation, that lasted for a few days. After years of wearing pants because of this problem, I tried this razor as a last resort. It worked wonderfully. I used it in the shower with a soap lather. It was not quite as close as a normal razor, but it was almost as close. To the touch, you could not tell the difference between a normal razor and this one. It was very smooth, with no pulling or scraping sensations. There was absolutely no irritation after I used it. Cleaning it is easy, and it has a light to indicate when the battery is dying. The battery lasts around 45 mins, although I haven't timed it to make sure.
but, there are a few problems. It's slow. I've never had an electric razor before, so I don't know how it's speed relates to other razors, but it took me longer with this razor than it does with a normal disposable one. It is loud. VERY loud. So prepare for that.
Overall, I would recommend this product... although if you do not have sensitive skin, I do not know if it would be needed.
Pros:
No irritation
Nice grip
Lights for battery charge - turns red when needs to be recharged
Easy to clean
Easy to charge overnight
Smooth
Almost as close as a normal razor
Doesn't miss hairs
Cons:
Very loud
Takes longer than a normal razor
Not quite as close

SMOOTH AND SILKY, January 29, 2004
This review is from: Remington WDF-6000 Smooth & Silky Ultra Plus Shaver, Rechargeable (Health and Beauty)
Enjoy the wet/dry feature - makes it easy for a thorough shave or simply touch-ups.
It's nick-free and speedy; always a comfortable yet close shave without pulling or chafing. The design makes it easy to access different body angles.
Also, always like a product with a warranty.

Totally Reccomend!! Best women's shaver ever!, June 9, 2006
This review is from: Remington WDF-6000 Smooth & Silky Ultra Plus Shaver, Rechargeable (Health and Beauty)
In my time, I have tried at least million ladies shavers. After years of confiscating my husbands' electric shaver, I finally found a ladies' that works as well as the mens'. I have Psoriasis and extremely sensitive skin. I can't use the "old faithful" Bic®, or Schick® or any of those razors for fear of bleeding to death. I was a little hesitant in getting this shaver because from my past experience with the ladies shavers. As far as I am concerned the ladies shaver industry has come a long way and this shaver proves it. After using this shaver for 4 weeks, I have no complaints. I get a close shave (almost as close as good old faithful) Of course in some spots I have to go over the area twice to get really close but hey that beat the heck out of bleeding to death. There is absolutely no irritation. With my blasted skin, that is important. I TOTALLY RECOMMEND this shaver to any of you ladies out there who: 1. Has sensitive skin and can't use the regular razor and wants a close shave OR 2. Who, like me, are a little too lazy when it comes to "maintenance".
