Philips Norelco Shaver 1100 S1015/81 (Corded Only)

The only corded shaver I ever use. Batteries can't have the power suitable for many men. I have a $300 Norelco, but use this $30 corded. New Philipps shaver for price of heads every time. PLEASE DO NOT DISCONTINUE.

I use the shaver on my head. I had bought several of the $20 china-special shavers over the years. Each lasted about a year. Fed up, I decided to buy a branded shaver. The Philips Noreleco Shaver 1100 is better in every way than any of my past experiences! The shaver cuts closer. It's a more comfortable shave. It shaves faster, so I am done more quickly. I highly recommend the Philips Norelco Shaver 1100.

My dad is 91 years old. i googled shavers that were easy for elderly people to use. and this one came up. i am very happy. My dad has an involuntary tremor caused by a medication he takes, and this shaver is lightweight and very easy to use. He was struggling with the task of shaving and this electric shaver has made it very easy for him. i help him but he's so much happier with how fast and easier it is!

I haven't used an electric shaver in about 50 years because I still remember the smelly pre-shave lotion and itchy skin afterwards. But I saw this little shaver and its price and decided to give it a try. I'm too busy some mornings for the shave/gel mess. This shaver doesn't require, apparently, any lotion, and so far it hasn't left me with itchy skin. My beard, though, is very light, so this might not be completely the case for some others. The razor/gel method does allow me to go 2 days between shaving and this electric shaver is similar, but I can feel significantly more regrowth the next day with it. That's to be expected, I suppose. Anyway, the price, the ease, yeah, this was a good buy.

This has been the best electric shaver that I ever had. I shaves closer than the other four that I threw away. I was also looking for a corded razor.

This simple razor cuts very nicely. Many have complained about the cord being too flimsy, but they are wrong. The beauty of the cord is that it is LONG, unlike the old stretchy cord that was far too short. For about $32, you just can't go wrong!

I hate battery razors as I do not like the chores to care and feed batteries. I like AC razors like this one. I normally do not find AC only razors in stores around here.

Most of us I believe always have a plug available when we shave and so saving money on not having the rechargeable battery is a plus. I believe it shaves as well as all the other Norelcos. And since the replacement blades are only 5$ less than this shaver you really can't go wrong with this model. From a standpoint of conserving resources, not including or having to replace rechargeable batteries is a plus. But the one negative is that you might have to throw out the unit and its small amount of slightly valuable copper wire in the motor in a short period of time. This is my third purchase of this model as the first two lasted only about 3 years. I am hoping I can get this one to last longer by doing a couple things differently: 1) The manual says to wash it under the faucet after each use and acknowledges that water will get into the unit. Contrary to what the manual said I did find water damage in my last unit when it went kaput. So now I am going to wash the blades in water but not let any get into the main body. 2) I used to turn it on and off by plugging it in and unplugging it. I suspect switch failed on the first one. I see now that the manual says to turn it off with the button before unplugging it, so I am going to do that too.

I bought this shaver because my other one which was at least 10yr old finally decide to go bye bye. the battery inside died, no shame after 10yr. decided on plug in type and it is working GREAT

This doesn't do the job of the 3-head electric-shaver I replaced. Maybe it's the way things are made today, but this is a poor substitute for the model bought in the 80s. My doctors told me to stop using razors [ due to strokes affecting my hand/eye coordination and leaving me with shaky hands ], so I went back to electric shavering. This model did such a poor job, i had to use a razor to get the close shave I was getting before i switched to razors. I hope they have a better version.
