Customer Reviews
Great shaver for occasional use
I am a devoted blade user (despite what the ads say, there are NO electrics that shave as close as a blade), but there are times that I just don't feel like going through the whole ritual of wet shaving. I've had all of the major electric brands at one time or another, including a Norelco rotary and an expensive Braun. I can say, without exaggeration, that this little eleven-buck throwaway shaver is the best electric I've ever owned or used.
When I ordered this, my main worry was that a battery-based shaver would be underpowered. Surprisingly, the lower power seems to be a plus. This shaver doesn't seem as aggressive and brutal as the plug-in and rechargeable models I've used. It doesn't irritate my skin but still has plenty of power to cut my very stiff hair.
Minor drawbacks: No trimmer; the clear plastic head protector doesn't stay on (but you can solve that with a rubber band); the cleaning brush is tiny and is hard to remove from the plastic protector (so I use a leftover brush from a previous shaver). Considering the price and performance, these are trivial issues.
Great battery operated shaver. Skip the titanium turbo for this!
After trying the "titanium turbo" and it having a hard time shaving the neck area plus the foil breaking through a bit I ordered this(should of done so first but didn't see it after the fact.) It shaves fairly well including the neck area. It has two foil/cutters that do a better job than the titanium turbo could. The cutters are affixed which actually makes it better to clean with the supplemented brush in the headguard. So far after a week its great! Highly recommend.
OK Shave but great value
I have 4 types of travel shavers, all run on AA batteries. Of the 4
(Axis AX-1300, Remington Travel Shaver, Bell & Howell travel shaver,
and Braun Travel shaver) the Remington gives the best shave. While not a great shave it is good for the price of the shaver It is a good value given the price. On the downside the on-off switch is poorly designed and I can't keep the cap on the shaver. Of the 4 this is the one I use the most. The Axis 1300 is used the least used and at 3x - 4x the price the poorest value.
