Manufacturer's Description
Remington has a rich heritage within the personal care market and they pride themselves as innovators in haircare, shaving, grooming and female depilation. They are deservedly one of the number one electrical brands in the UK.
Remington has linked up with BMW Group DesignworksUSA - industrial design studios in Los Angeles, Singapore and Munich. The team of design experts is renowned for transforming the mediocre into the must-have and has, in this case, turned the everyday electric shaver into a true object of desire!
Drawing on the three main elements, the Remington Series shavers combine design & style and technical edge with comfort, closeness and convenience to produce a truly revolutionary range.
Driven by Design
|  | BMW DesignworksUSA has given the new shaver line distinctive, futuristic styling introducing unique colour tones and innovative materials to an otherwise staid category. The new Remington Series establishes a sophisticated brand language that communicates precision performance and bold innovative features. Utilizing precision points, angles and asymmetry, the design language communicates quality and a clean shave with modern visual interest.
|
New colour directions reflect the distinct design language of the shaver and have been selected to meet the very latest trends. White has become increasingly important in consumer electronics and creates a simple, minimal aesthetic when used on the new Series. |
 | Titanium - harder than Steel
The material on the blades and cutters has been designed to meet all types of shaving need. The mid-range R330 Titanium Series has Titanium Coated Blades (TIN) which are 300% harder than steel blades and which also give a long lasting, excellent cutting performance. | |  |
Comfort, Closeness & Convenience
|  | It has independent floating heads and 21 cutter blades which are able to cut short stubble allowing twice a day shaving if required. |  | This shaver is washable for a more hygienic, cleaner shave. High product quality is central to the new range. As well as improved comfort, closeness and convenience, there is also a better charging system and less noise and vibration in use. The cutting edge, ergonomic design of each shaver model is enhanced by tactile touch points, buttons and innovative surfaces and textures. |
Verena C. Kloos, President at BMW Group DesignworksUSA says "Our expertise in premium design and our capabilities in translating brand values into a unique design language has generated a distinct new look and feel for the Remington brand. The result is bold, innovative and edgy with an emphasis on a higher level of quality". | |  |

 Fails on the basics .... October 23, 2008
P. Higson (Sussex, UK)
After using this shaver for a couple of months I had to go back to my previous Braun foil shaver. Why? Because the Remington is actually not very good at shaving - it takes twice as long as my Braun and the end result is poor, in fact I have more stubble showing immediately after finishing shaving with the Remington in the morning than I have a full working day later when I use the Braun.
Sorry - nice looking product but (titanium blades or no) does not shave very well.
 remington August 20, 2008
J. R. Connor (London. UK)
Bought this remington razor which has proved to be very uncomfortable to hold...What do car designers know about hand held electric razors??
It shaved okay but after a few months use it seized up and now is destined for the bin.
I would not buy this again.
 Great Item at a Good Price! August 5, 2008

I was disappointed with my (similarly priced) Philips from the very beginning, but put up with it for a couple of years. I treated myself to this reasonably priced Remington hoping for better shaving and I was not let down. It's quiet and very efficient, the cutter speed is significantly higher than Philips shavers I've had, and thus you get a quicker shave. It copes with quite long stubble too.
Yes, it may have a fairly long charging time, but it runs for an extremely long time between charges. Don't be put off by the odd negative review here - having owned it now for over a year I don't understand how anyone can say it's flimsy. It's equal in quality to any other electric razor I've owned. I also don't understand criticisms of holding it, after all, it's the same basic design as all other 3-head shavers around.
As regards things falling apart or disintegrating, I've always found Amazon are brilliant at after-sales service, so just send it back for replacement or refund.
I'm a mechanical engineer with a background in quality control, AND I'm a nitpicker, and I like it. It's easily the best electric shaver I've ever owned.
 Buy next model up June 24, 2008

I was drawn to this item by the price and then noticed that the R330 model is only a few pence more. That is exactly the same but charges in under an hour rather than overnight. Very useful.
I disagree with the review that says the build quality is not good. It is certainly up to the task and worth the money being asked.
My concern is that it doesn't shave close enough. Anyone who has a strong growing beard will know that a rotary shaver (read Philishave) does the job much better than a foil type and I have always used the Philishave. My reason for getting this new Remington was that my Philishave is getting old now and I presumed the Remington would cut as close. However, it does not seem to, which is a bit worrying.
It could be that the blades need to bed in, so I have my fingers crossed.
In every other respect, it is a good value buy.
Excellent Cheap Shaver March 31, 2008

I brought this to replace a failed Philishave shaver as the price was cheaper than a repair. I must say I wasn't disappointed! I have been wet shaving for a few weeks and on my first use it was so much better than my old one! After preparing my skin using a pre shave powder stick from another e-tailer I had a close shave with absolutely no irritation including around the neck which always used to be an issue. A top buy highly recommended!!
