Remington MS2-290 Microscreen 300 Rechargeable Men's Shaver

 (25 customer reviews)

I thought I was buying a duplicate of the shaver that was stolen from my motel room when I was on a business trip. The one I had to replace was very good, but this one is even better.

I have a very tough beard (I typically use the electric shaver before taking a shower, then a traditional hot lather-and-blade shave afterwards). This shaver gives me a close enough shave that I really don't need to use the blade to have a better-than-passable shave. In addition, the charge seems to last forever.

After decades of using Norelcos, I highly recommend this model Remington.

My Braun recently died on me after serving me well for a number of years. My wife went out and bought the Remington and while I have no qualms about the shave itself (it does a decent job) the battery life is downright horrible. Does not hold a charge for very long and the most disappointing thing is that there is no visual indicator that it is low on charge nor can you shave while it is plugged in! Going back to Braun. You pay more but I find you get what you pay for.

This product was described as "worldwide voltage". On looking at the charging lead it said 120V AC. I e-mailed Amazon and my enquiry was forwarded to the supplier who told me to return the shaver and eventually I received a refund less postage.
