Product Reviews of Philips Norelco 8040X Moisturizing Shaving System
Product Review: Great shave but not as close as we would like it.
Summary: 4 Stars
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
I got this and since I'm a woman I gave it to my husband to use so he could tell me what he thinks about it. According to him it is really comfortable and gives a close shave. It is rather comfortable to use and being able to use it in the shower is a plus. It also has a really nice smell to it and it is pretty easy to clean and charge. So far he hasn't had any nicks or cuts which is also a plus.
A con though is the replacement nivea conditioner is very hard and expensive to get. And also you have to think about the cost of replacement heads. But overall it's a great shaver.
Product Review: Great shave for an electric

Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
My husband was pleasantly surprised by the Norelco shaving system. It did a much better job than any electric razor he had tried in the past. He was pretty enthusiastic about the moisturizing system, which prevented his skin from getting irritated (which is what usually happens with electric shavers), and it facilitated a smoother, closer shave than he expected.
While the Norelco electric is faster and more convenient than his Schlick Quattro, he is definitely a creature of habit, and uses the Norelco when he is in a rush, rather than daily.
Nevertheless, he told me to give it 5 stars as he is very pleased with it.
Product Review: Great shaver
Summary: 5 Stars
I have always wanted an electric shaver I could use in the shower, but they always irritated my neck. This shaver with accompanying moisturizer makes shaving a breeze and incredibly comfortable. It is not as close as a razor, but plenty close enough and when used daily keeps the beard well in hand. I would highly recommend it.Product Review: Great shaving system

Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
My husband has been using Norelco dry electric shavers for years and has really loved them. As he really likes Philips products he was looking forward to trying the Moisturizing Shaving system.
After charging the shaver for the recommended four hours (reading the instructions is also a good idea) using the cartridge of Nivea to fill the razor's cartridge was surprisingly neat and easy to do. The shaver went into the shower for its first test run. It takes some experimenting to know how much moisturizer to use at first, but this was also very easy (see comment on reading instructions). There is a separate button for dispensing the moisturizer, and the process seemed similar to putting on a little shaving cream, shaving a small area and then applying more when the razor started to drag. The results were the best, smoothest and most comfortable shave I've ever seen from an electric razor - definitely comparable to using a razor blade without the nicks and cuts!
If you are considering changing to an electric razor, or have one but sometimes miss getting a really close shave, this system is highly recommended! Also great for dry or sensitive skin!
Product Review: HE'S A CHANGED MAN OR YOU CAN TEACH AN OLD DOG NEW TRICKS

Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
You might say he's set in his ways. The same brands of toothpaste, toothbrush, deodorant, and razor have served him well for quite a while, so to him any change would seem silly and a waste of time - unless, of course, the change involved a car, a television, or software. (If it ain't broke, don't fix it is one of his favorite phrases).
He received this shaving system with a quiet thank you (translation: I'll put it away and forget about it). So, it took some pleading to get him to try it. However, when he did he became a changed and smoother shaved man. A lot of what sold him on this shaver was the ease of use in the shower. Not only was it easy but it speeded up his morning routine, and he found the shower shave accompanied by the Nivea conditioner both soothing and refreshing.
Another plus for him was the fact that the shaver really gave almost 40 minutes of shave time after recharging.
Now, it's as if he was the one who discovered the Philips Norelco Shaving System and the advantages it offers.
