Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

It would be an understatement for me to say that I was very pleasantly surprised by this razor. I consider it to be one of the best personal purchases I have made in my lifetime of 70+ years. It is solidly built and easy to use, with the flexible shaving head, that moves when you shave the different areas of your face and neck, so the resulting shave is closer. I have one incredibly tough beard, so I need to shave twice a day - in the morning when I get up, and again in the very late afternoon. I am in no way embellishing my remarks by saying that the Remington F5-5800A shaves as closely and as cleanly as my standard Gillette razor does, using the Gillette "Mach 2" blades with shaving cream! It is no very nice to be able to get a good close shave without all the soap and water, and then all the rinsing and some kind of after shave lotion to soothe the skin of your face after a close shave, and sometimes the Neosporin, if you "nick" yourself. Just to push the button and it goes on!!! The handle of the razor also neatly fits into the palm of your hand. And last, but not least, after you initially charge the razor, the first time from an electrical outlet, it recharges very quickly, and only after every 3-4 shaves. Another important factor, from my point of view , is that it is so easy to clean every day after you do shave. The top of the razor lifts off very easily, and you just blow off the beard particles. Likewise the lower part of the razor where the cutting blades are - you just blow that clean too. So everyday cleaning just takes literally just a couple of minutes. I am one frugal person at my age with a reduced fixed income. If you are interested in buying this razor, get it through an Amazon purchase. Do not buy it through a retailer, including Walmart. The price for this razor, at Walmart, was $90!!!! I have taken some time writing this rating, because I am so pleased with it. I have a feeling you will be too!!!!!!!! Best wishes to all.
