I don't really know how well to rate this product, because I don't have much experience with electric razors. But, I received this one--the Remington Titanium Microflex R-650--and it does a decent job. The problem I had when I first used it is my face turned red and itchy. I had to throw on a bunch of witch hazel astringent to help the problem. I just have one of those faces that, especially for a white guy, gets razor burn pretty easily. It usually turns into acne infections later. That's why I don't shave with a razor for the two years since I got out of the army--where I had to shave every day. It has been much easier to maintain face hair between 5 o'clock shadow and a slight beard, because my face hasn't broken out that way, by using a Conair moustache trimmer. I don't like cuts, and the Conair trimmer never gave me any cuts--take a note of this. I warn, this Remington razor cuts close! That isn't any problem. It's like any three-cylindrical-head electric razor. Sometimes it tends to scratch my face--I have sensitive skin. The electrical part itself is decent here--it recharges. And, the internal battery lasts quite a while, but bring the cord with you on trips--it operates with or without cord. The manual says it charges in "7.5 hours" and the box says the razor can run straight for 50 minutes, which I think is normal to good. Another great thing about this razor is it has automatic, worldwide voltage. This means I can plug this razor into a 220v outlet like in the Western Europe area like France, Germany, and Austria, where I sometimes travel. The only thing I need to plug it in when I travel to Germany is the plug adapter that costs about one dollar or less. I already have two or three of them. They're easy to get. The item advertises that it is washable, although I haven't tried yet because I just got it. But so far, I just open it up and shake or blow the hair out of the head. It's pretty simple.
