Customer Rating:
Summary: EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE
Comment: THE CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS EXCELLENT. THE PRODUCT WAS RECEIVED IN LESS THAN GIFT CONDITION. I WROTE TO THE COMPANY AND THEY APOLOGIZED AND REFUNDED THE TOTAL AMOUNT (price & shipping) THE NEXT DAY.
I AM UNABLE TO REVIEW THE ITEM AT THIS TIME SO I GAVE IT A THREE BECAUSE YOU CAN'T CONTINUE WITH THE REVIEW UNTIL YOU RATE THE PRODUCT - A SILLY AMAZON REQUIREMENT THAT SKEWS PRODUCT RATINGS... MAYBE THEY SHOULD ADJUST THEIR SOFTWARE.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Not that great at all
Comment: The product kind of sucks. It doesn't provide a clean shave and if you have a lot of facial hair it is practically useless plus it's only good for people who keeps a regularly shaving but it still doesn't give that smooth shave that is wanted. No doubt a waste of money

Summary: Great shaver for occasional use
Comment: I am a devoted blade user (despite what the ads say, there are NO electrics that shave as close as a blade), but there are times that I just don't feel like going through the whole ritual of wet shaving. I've had all of the major electric brands at one time or another, including a Norelco rotary and an expensive Braun. I can say, without exaggeration, that this little eleven-buck throwaway shaver is the best electric I've ever owned or used.
When I ordered this, my main worry was that a battery-based shaver would be underpowered. Surprisingly, the lower power seems to be a plus. This shaver doesn't seem as aggressive and brutal as the plug-in and rechargeable models I've used. It doesn't irritate my skin but still has plenty of power to cut my very stiff hair.
Minor drawbacks: No trimmer; the clear plastic head protector doesn't stay on (but you can solve that with a rubber band); the cleaning brush is tiny and is hard to remove from the plastic protector (so I use a leftover brush from a previous shaver). Considering the price and performance, these are trivial issues.

Summary: Excellent, Cheap Shaver!
Comment: This has been my primary shaver since July of last year. Bought it when I forgot my Norelco rotary on a trip. Have not looked back since. This shaver outperformed my Norelco in every aspect. Just shows that price ($10 vs. $90) does not equal quality.
Why four stars? A couple items:
- Battery operated. Can get expensive over time to keep buying batteries, though the batteries do tend to last a while (2+ weeks) before speed of blade gets noticeably slower.
- Can't replace the blades or foil. Small complaint, as the shaver is cheap enough to just buy a new one.
- Does take a few passes to get a majority of the hairs (esp. after batteries are worn a little).
- As with all electrics, tends to miss hair, especially in hard areas (under chin, around lip, next to ears, etc.)
Overall, a great value to at least try BEFORE you spend $70+ on a rechargeable shaver.
