Not Great! January 9, 2008

Bought this model from Boots for 34.99 in Jan. 2008 as a replacement for my aging but excellent mains/rechargeable Braun 5414 cross-cutter whose battery is no longer holding its charge. After making sure the new Philips was fully charged I managed two shaves from it on battery power before it stuttered and then went dead - I wasn't even able to get it to work directly from the mains! The closeness of the shave was good, but not quite so close as with my Braun. However, I found that the Philips gave me a nasty inflamed rash on my face and neck immediately after use, so I'm not sure what alloy Philips are using in their blades! The Philips was quiet in action (when it worked!), but did not glide across the face anything like as easily as the foil head of the Braun. Weight is similar, but I found the shape is actually quite bulky and awkward for my relatively small hands.The sideburn trimmer pops up from the back of the shaver and is accurate and effective. Overall, I felt that the Philips is not a great machine and obviously has questionable build quality, and is not a good advert for Philips goods. After obtaining a refund for it, I shall be moving back to the more reliable Braun brand again!
