Product Reviews of Philips Norelco 8140XL SpeedXL Men's Shaver
Product Review: Shaves well, but could be better
Summary: 4 Stars
I have used this razor daily for around three months now. At first, there were a couple of hairs it always missed, but now it gets them all and overall it has given a very good shave; I hadn't realized electric razors could be so good.
Two small hassles, though: (1) There is very little warning that the battery is low and about to run out. If you notice that the speed has dropped slightly, you have maybe a minute at most before it stops dead. (2) The metal sprung hinge attaching the razor head assembly to the main unit has become loose enough that in mine the base of the hinge detaches from the main unit far too easily and is a bit of a pain to wedge back in, meaning that cleaning it is suddenly much more of a chore. For this price, I'd have expected better build quality.
Product Review: Wish I was happier with this shaver
Summary: 2 Stars
Seems to be a nice shaver, but if you skip a day of shaving you really notice the pull on the whiskers. I figured that would happen when it got dull after a few months but it was that way out of the box. Also, the light that's supposed to come on when you need to recharge doesn't. Not sure if I got a lemon, but I'm not super impressed. But I just make sure I shave every day and no whisker pulling. Also didn't get everything I was supposed to get in the package. Missing the cleaning brush, but I can use my old shaver brush. Not a huge deal by itself, but when added to the whisker pulling, and lack of recharge notice, not overly happy. Hope others have had good luck with this one.Product Review: Finally a close shave

Philips Norelco 8140XL SpeedXL Men's Shaver My husband complained and complained about the terrible shaves he was getting from the three shavers he was using. So I ordered the Norelco SpeedXL Shaver for him. All I have heard is how close his shave is and how much he enjoys it. 5 stars to it. My ears are resting from all the griping!Product Review: The Best Ever
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the best ever shaver that I purchased gives you a close shave
without irrating your face.
Product Review: If you can stand the pain, this shaver is for you
Summary: 1 Stars
Used Norelcos for about 10 years now; most recent is the Norelco Spectra. Decided to try this new shaver and I have to say that this is my first Noreclo that does more then lift and cut hairs. It actually pulls the hairs right off your face. I guess you can't get a closer shave than that and it will definitely wake you up in the morning. I tried to get used to it, but ended up returning it.
