Product Reviews of Remington MS2-390 Microscreen Rechargeable/Corded Men's Shaver
Product Review: Am not sure about Consumer Reports Review
Summary: 2 Stars
I have been a 6+yrs Norelco rotary blades electric shaver user and when it was time to replace it I decided to check out the advancements in this field and bought this shaver after going through the reviews here and Consumer Reports recommendation.
It's been 3 mos since I've been using this razor, the shave is just OK, the shaver does not do not a good job in the jaw area and at the skin folds, I have been more or less following the instruction of "stretching" your skin to create a flat surface but compared to my previous razor this one falls short. It does a decent job on the flat areas.
Also 2 weeks ago one of the screens broke (huge hole in the center) and I had to spend $20+ to buy replacement screens (also got a new set of blades). The holder design is far from convenient when it comes to replacing these screens and one needs very "gentle" hands to ensure you do not damage the new screens.
Maybe my shaving technique with screen shaver is poor and that is why I am having "shaving quality" problems, I am still giving the benefit of doubt to this shaver and will try see if I have better luck with the new screens (there is no reason for me to believe why the results will be any better-but hey there is all these positive reviews for a reason). If not, the screen razors is not my cup of tea and I am back to rotary blades razor, just hate spending $100+ on a shaver!!
Product Review: Great shave for the price
Summary: 4 Stars
I have been using this shaver for about a month and I am very pleased. It provides a very close shave... especially for the price. It's also lightweight and holds a charge very well.Product Review: Nice close shaves
Summary: 4 Stars
Bought this last month after leaving my ten-year-old electric at a hotel.
Pros: It really does deliver a nice close shave. It's not quite as close as a blade, but it's darn close, and it's *miles* better than my old electric. The battery lasts a while, it's easy to clean, and the trimmer does work.
Cons: The trimmer is fairly weak and somewhat difficult to get to work on rogue neck whiskers.
Overall, it's a great product except for the trimmer.
Product Review: Great Shaver for the Money
Summary: 5 Stars
I needed to replace a Braun that had worn-out batteries and chose the Remington MS2-390 based on reviews in a "leading consumer magazine" and user comments posted here at Amazon. The MS2-390 is noisier, but it is lighter and shaves closer than the Braun. The MS2-390 is also cleaner, as it doesn't leak shaved whiskers like the Braun did. Plus, the MS2-390 can be rinsed in water. Overall the Remington MS2-390 is a very good razor for the money.Product Review: Best rechargeable razor
Summary: 5 Stars
My 74 year old husband says that this is the best electric rechargeable razor that he has ever had! It gives a close and comfortable shave but does require recharging usually after five shaves.
