Reviews

Razor - 5 stars. Washing mechanism - Zero - failed three weeks into use (Christmas present; it is now almost May) and does not work at all. Recommend purchasing just the razor, withOUT the washer.

I bought the Norelco 8270 [...]. I chose this model because it came with a travel pouch (which I'm glad I got) and a battery level indicator light (which I'm VERY glad I got). It's been a good shaver so far. I'm currently on the third re-charge cycle, without a problem. The info packets said each charge would provide 17 shaves. I've averaged about 5 more than that, but I don't use it for as many minutes per shave as was assumed in those calculations, so Norelco is probably pretty close in their estimates. And the battery level lights work well, giving you plenty of warning before the shaver runs out of charge.

The sideburn trimmer is absolutely worthless, however, so if you're picky or have bushy burns, plan on trimming them some other way. I still have an old plug-in Norelco I bought 30 years ago that not only does a great job trimming sideburns, but is great for trimming my moustache as well. Not this shaver. All this trimmer does is pull hair.

The only other weakness I've noticed is that this model doesn't give you a really close shave--you have to keep going over the same area again and again if you want to feel just skin and no stubble, and there is no adjustable head feature. And I haven't used the water-wash feature; I just use the little brush and a compressed air can (for cleaning computers) to blow out the heads.

All in all, it's a good shaver. I think it's a bit pricey for what it delivers, but we're obviously a far cry from my old $[...] Norelco plug-in that gave me a much closer shave and lasted me 30 years. Aah, for the old days
