One of the most well-appointed Norelco Reflex Plus models, this shaver delivers a clean, comfortable shave made even more convenient by high-speed charging time. The Reflex Plus design combines a multi-directional flexible surface and individually floating heads for contour-hugging action. Like other Norelco shavers, this one uses Lift and Cut technology to gently raise whiskers then cut them cleanly for a super smooth, below-the-skin shave. Conveniently designed for corded or cordless use, the shaver produces 30 minutes of shave time on just a 1-hour charge and 3 minutes on a 6-minute quick charge. Two LED indicators help you gauge the battery's juice.

Handsomely finished in a platinum casing, the shaver has helpful structural details like a built-in hair chamber and full-width pop-up trimmer. Automatic worldwide voltage adaptability and a sturdy travel pouch make it easy to take on the road, while a protective razor head cap and cleaning brush simplify maintenance. Norelco backs it with a 60-day satisfaction guarantee and a two-year warranty. --Emily Bedard

Customer Reviews

excellent, shaving but there's a reason it's cheap
I had another Norelco shaver for the last 5 (or more) years. The difference in the shaves is striking. Both less pain when my stubble is a little long and closer.

However, the reason this shaver is cheaper is that there is 1 battery inside it instead of 2. I know this because I took it in to be "repaired" because I only got 8 shaves to a charge. I talked (online) with Norelco and they said my shaver was broken. So, I looked up on the Norelco site a local authorized repair shop. I took it in and the guy opened it up. He said it was one of the "cheap" versions that has 1 instead of 2 batteries.

My old shaver, over most of its life, gave me 25 or so shaves before needing to be recharged. That's quite a difference.

Erratic Battery Performance; Excellent Shave
As someone who has a heavy beard, electric razors and their effectiveness are very important to me. I have owned this razor for a year now, and can offer a couple of observations: 1) I agree that the battery life is at best unpredictable. Sometimes the charge seems to last weeks, other times not. 2) The look of the razor is rather cheap, and would probably dismay you if you've owned Norelco razors in the distant past (10+ years) as I have. 3) Despite those two criticisms, it does what it is supposed to do, and that is give a very good shave and for the price, a very good bargain.

Electric Razor
The batteries last a long time and recharge quickly.
Floating heads are confortable, but don't seem to shave a closely as my previous Norelco.
