 Never gives a "real" shave. December 3, 2008
0 out of 1 found this comment useful.
Shaving with this so far, even with the "shaver saver" and other such things, has been tedious due to its simple lack of ability to give you a decent shave. No matter how hard I've tried with this thing, I always find myself reaching back for my good ol' three-blade & Barbasol.
 One of the best dual Micro-Foil Men's Electric Shavers out there December 2, 2008

This Remington dual foil MS2-390 replaced my MS2-370 which was identical except that the 390 can be rinsed clean under water. Both the 370 and the 390 use the same cutter heads and micro-foils and both shave closer than a blade. I bought the 390 so I can have a nearly identical spare shaver on hand in case of an emergency. I've also used rotary style electric razors in the past, however for my beard which tends to lay at an angle in some areas, I've found the micro-screen styles like the 370/390 to shave closer and faster. An excellent product for my kind of beard.
Old shaving technology give so-so shave December 2, 2008
I used Remington electric razors from 1963 until 1995+ and then started buying Panasonic and similar Linear- high speed razors. I was surprised when this Remington got better reviews than any other brand. But when used the shaver, I found it no better than the 1990's version. I want to find that review and make certain to avoid that source, as it obviously was a OEM influenced ranking- where the highest fee or advertizing payment gets the best rating. Don't waste $50 on the Remington, invest $85 in the most economical Linear Panasonic.
Am not sure about Consumer Reports Review December 2, 2008
I have been a 6+yrs Norelco rotary blades electric shaver user and when it was time to replace it I decided to check out the advancements in this field and bought this shaver after going through the reviews here and Consumer Reports recommendation.
It's been 3 mos since I've been using this razor, the shave is just OK, the shaver does not do not a good job in the jaw area and at the skin folds, I have been more or less following the instruction of "stretching" your skin to create a flat surface but compared to my previous razor this one falls short. It does a decent job on the flat areas.
Also 2 weeks ago one of the screens broke (huge hole in the center) and I had to spend $20+ to buy replacement screens (also got a new set of blades). The holder design is far from convenient when it comes to replacing these screens and one needs very "gentle" hands to ensure you do not damage the new screens.
Maybe my shaving technique with screen shaver is poor and that is why I am having "shaving quality" problems, I am still giving the benefit of doubt to this shaver and will try see if I have better luck with the new screens (there is no reason for me to believe why the results will be any better-but hey there is all these positive reviews for a reason). If not, the screen razors is not my cup of tea and I am back to rotary blades razor, just hate spending $100+ on a shaver!!
Great shave for the price December 1, 2008
I have been using this shaver for about a month and I am very pleased. It provides a very close shave... especially for the price. It's also lightweight and holds a charge very well.
