Product Reviews of Philips Norelco 9160XL SmartTouch-XL Men's Shaver
Product Review: Works well...glad I bought it.
Summary: 4 Stars
Amazon had this at a very good price, so I jumped on it. I have an older Norelco, and this one wasn't all that much more expensive than a new set of cutters. I've had it for almost exactly a month, and it's still got one bar left on the original charge. I've been using it every day, sometimes twice a day. The Speed-XL heads seem to work better than my previous 5 year old model. It's still not perfect, but I get a close shave, and I can shave again without fear of cutting myself.
I do have a few gripes, but they are rather small. On several occasions I have released the head while shaving. The button is just too easy to press on accident. It's no big deal, but annoying. Also, the trimmer is spring loaded and pops out when released. That's fine, but you have to push it down when done. I preferred my older model that had a thumb slide so I could easily extend or retract it with one thumb motion. Also, the shape of the shaver prevents it from resting on it's back. I don't really use the stand, and it tries to roll out of my medicine cabinet every time I set it down after using it.
It does use the same power adapter as my previous shaver, but the stand is slightly different. And it comes with a semi-rigid case that looks great for carrying it while traveling, though it doesn't hold the power adapter.
Overall, I'm very happy with the shaver and would highly recommend it for anybody trying out an electric.

Summary: 5 Stars
I got this Norelco 9160XL to replace my old (25+ yrs) corded Norelco.
This "newer" model is everything I expected.
Provides a close shave, trimmer does the job.
Easy to clean.
I recommend it.
Product Review: Pretty good

I have been using this for about a month now. It takes a LOT longer to shave than one that moves a bit faster - my last one was awesome but exploded in a car crash :). Shaves easy, no burning afterwards, charge has lasted me over 3 weeks, can clean with water only. Only thing I do not like about it is having to go over the same area again and again and again - which is why the charge lasts for so long - moves VERY SLOWLY, I thought it was broken the first time I turned it on. Honestly, I would probably buy another one instead that shaves faster, but I will stick with it as it works :)Product Review: Awesome!!!

This is the first electric to shave as close as a blade! I've had it for three weeks and still not had to charge it. Great razor works like a charm!!!
