The Remington R-7130 Rotary Shaver is a pivoting electric razor that delivers a clean and comfortable shave, even at awkward angles. Using three circular titanium-coated blades and a pivoting, swiveling neck, the razor allows you to shave closely--without nicks. It also features an ergonomic rubber grip, a pop-out trimmer, and a numeric, backlit LCD that clearly displays battery life.
3 pivoting heads adjust to your neck and face. |
Titanium-coated blades are durable and stay sharper longer. |
Shaver Adjusts to the Contours of Your Face The R-7130 features a flexible, pivoting design that allows you to negotiate the difficult angles of your face. Thanks to Remington's advanced Pivot & Flex technology, the shaver rolls over your chin and jawbone with ease, and the flexing mechanism helps the blades maintain constant contact with your skin, so you get a cleaner shave.
Top-Quality Blades Deliver a Close, Gentle Shave With titanium coating and Teflon protection, the R-7130's blades are heavy duty, yet they deliver a nick-free shave. Because of their hardy titanium finish, the blades are resistant to dulling. Also, their Teflon surface keeps things gentle, guarding against cuts, scratches, and irritation.
Additionally, the shaver's three rotary heads provide a greater total cutting area and enable a much faster shave. Each of the heads moves and flexes independently to make shaving comfortable. Also, the blades are completely washable, and they rinse quickly and easily under a faucet.
Designed for Easy Operation The R-7130 has an arching, ergonomic design, making it easy and comfortable to grip. Its handle is blanketed in rubber to ensure a secure grip while you shave. The shaver also has an LCD, which clearly indicates battery life and gauges remaining time.
For further convenience, the R-7130 features a pop-out trimmer that's ideal for detail work like sideburn trimming.
Long-Lasting Battery Allows for Cordless Operation When operated cordlessly, the R-7130 relies on a high-performance NiMh rechargeable battery for power. The battery, which takes only two hours to fully charge, provides up to 60 minutes of cordless shaving time--enough for 30 shaves. If you're in a hurry, the shaver also has a quick-charge mode, which gives your battery a time-saving boost.
Additionally, the R-7130 accepts universal voltage, so it can be used and charged worldwide. It is backed by Remington's two-year manufacturer's warranty.
What's in the Box Electric shaver and charger.

A Very Solid Mid Range Shaver that Gives a Great Shave,
November 18, 2008 Scott Bright "scottypotty" (Grayslake, IL USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Remington R-7130 Flex 360 LCD Cord/Cordless Rechargeable Men's Rotary Shaver (Health and Beauty)
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
I've been trying a lot of shavers lately and I have to say that the R-7130 gives a really nice close comfortable shave. I was surprised how much I liked it. It's a very easy shave and I didn't get any razor burn at all. The digital charge indicator is very nice. I don't think I could be without one anymore. I like to know the minutes of charge time left so I don't have to pack the cord when going away. It is a very solid well build unit. It has some weight so it feels good in your hand. The one thing that I did find lacking was a case and charging stand.
Compared to other shavers I've tried:
Philips Norelco Arcitec 1090 (Comes with cool accessories) -- Sleeker, cooler, and a little bit better shave than the R-7130 but twice the price.
Philips Norelco 8240XL (Comes with a case) -- not quite as nice of a shave as the R-7130
Philips Norelco 8040X Moisturizing Shaver (Comes with case and stand) -- Hard to compare since this is a wet shaver that you can...Read more

*NOTE: The newest version now has a redesigned head, it fixes all ills + a better shave, too,
November 17, 2010 Saycheese - See all my reviews
This review is from: Remington R-7130 Flex 360 LCD Cord/Cordless Rechargeable Men's Rotary Shaver (Health and Beauty)
I have just (Nov, 2010) received the newest improved version of the R7130, which now has Remington's redesign of the heads. This solves all the problems of the old model, which previous reviews here are based on. It is now simply a better product.
The previous R7130's heads were removable from the front with a tricky twist that required to be reinstalled just right, or the blades could fall out. The redesign now fixes this by making the cutters removable from the back, only after you open up the shaver. Remington also told me that the new heads now also give a better/closer shave than before, and that all R7130 stock going forward will be equipped with them.
I can wholeheartedly recommend it now.
And Remington customer service is indeed very good, as has been written around the web.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
A long, long time ago, when I was fresh out of college, my cousin sold Remington shavers and got me one for insider price. It was the old-fashioned straight-line kind. I tried it once and it irritated my skin so much that I never tried it again. I've stuck with sensitive-skin products like Edge and the various generations of Gillette multiblade hand razors since.
When I read about this new Remington, with its Teflon coating, I decided to try electric shaving again. I was a little hesitant at first, but when the Remington got here I decided to go for it. First of all, it's a good size and weight for my hand, which is maybe a little larger than normal. It balances well and so it's easy to control its movement.
Surprisingly, the shaver came charged for 60 minutes of use (even though they tell you to charge it for 24 hours before using). I really like the LCD readout that shows you how many minutes of charge are left.
I have to admit I was a little nervous...Read more
