Screens don't last long enough August 31, 2008 I have the model that precedes this one, Ms2 280 and am disappointed in the length of time that the screens last....7 months. And then when I tried to replace the screens, the plastic head broke due to a bad snap that you are supposed to release to get the new screens in and no heads were available not even from Remmington, so there went a %69 reazor...lousy quality
Great razor, great price. January 18, 2008 We have had this for a year now and still works great! Provides a smooth,close cut.
Good features, decent shave. September 8, 2007 I needed a shaver that would work as either cordless or corded, with either US (110v) or foreign voltages (220-250v). This shaver does this without having to carry voltage converters. The shave provided is decent, but my beard is very light so I can't claim to really challenge it. The popup trimmer works good for sideburns or trimming a mustache. The only negative aspect is the positioning of the popup trimmer switch; it is located such that it is very easy to hit inadvertently while shaving.
Great value, nice little shaver August 29, 2007 This shaver doesn't shave as fast as my Norelco but it does have a much closer shave than my Norelco. For the price of replacement heads, this shaver is totally worth it, easy to use, easy to clean and it always makes me feel good because of the great value. I rather get new shavers every other year than buy an expensive one and try to make it last, this is why this shaver was perfect for my needs.
MORE THAN 60 YEARS OF GREAT SHAVES March 19, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Having purchased my first Remington in 1945, I have used other shavers over the years. I found the Remington to be superior to all I have tried. Essentially, it is an engineering marvel. Remington makes other more expensive models of shavers. However, from a practical point of view, this particular model is all any person needs. Their instruction manual could be a little clearer as to how to replace screens. They recommend replacement every six months. Rotate the screens that are already in the shaver and you will gain more time on the screens. I have found that if you wash your face prior to shaving, your shaver stays cleaner and the screens last longer. With proper use, a screen can last more than a year, particularly if you rotate them. Assuming you have a very course bristly beard, you might have a problem using this or similar products.
