Summary: My Remington R960 died today
Comment: So, I travel internationally a lot. I was coming home from Korea and stopped in Hawaii in August of 1995 and my 11 year old Norelco died. I bought this R960 Remington at Walmart for $80 then. I have had it ever since and it worked fine. Most of the time I have used it with the cord plugged in, not needing the battery feature. Now the shaver won't even start, no lights, no nothing. I can only assume the battery circut has malfunctioned. Needing a shaver immediately and being back in Korea I have bought a Philips made in Europe. I did not get enough service life from the Remington, considering my Norelco's excess of 11 years. Bye, bye Remington... too bad though. I kind of got used to it.

Summary: not that great
Comment: holds a charge well, but thats about it.
head doesn't pivot that much at all. doesnt "lift n' cut" hair as well as my norelco did. i would have to shave every 1.5 days with this, as opposed to 3-4 with other shavers. shave would also take longer than a conventional razor with shaving cream. i had to "carve" out a close shave. not worth it.
left area under my chin and my neck very irritated.
skip this razor & spend the extra few dollars on something that will get the job done.

Summary: Great Shaver
Comment: I purchased the Remington R960 about a month ago, and have not had any problems at all with it. I am in the Marine Corps. so I am inspected every day on my shave. It gives a close shave, and battery life is excellent. It does take some time for your skin to get use to using an electric razor, but after a couple of weeks I have gotten use to it. This product can't be beat for the price.

Summary: Best Shaver I've Ever Used
Comment: Over the past 50 years I have used every type of electric shaver made and almost every brand, including Remington Micro, Norelco, Braun et al.. Without question, this is the very best of them all. Admittidly, it does require a break-in period. But within a short time it does an excellent job. One of it's plusses and a secret to comfortable use, is that it shaves closely with a very light touch. Pressing down hard, as we usually need to do with other shavers, causes irritation and burn.
My advice to the "chain-saw" guy who used it once and set it aside, is give it a try, use it lightly, and I think you find it's a great tool.
I've been using it for 3 years and when I accidently broke the clipper, I immediately bought a new one. I recently bought one for my 50 year old son, who also thinks it's great.

Summary: Better, but not the best
Comment: I bought this shaver for my boyfriend to use because his old one (a foil type) was shewed up by a dog. I wasn't sure if he would like it or not, being that it was a different type of shaver than what he was used to. On the one hand, the 3 blade rotary shaver IS a closer shave, but on the other hand, the shaver scrapes up his neck. He said it does really well on his chin, but not so much on his neck. The main reason I bought this particular rotary shaver was b/c of the quick charge it had. So far, I'm not sure if he's used that benefit. It's ok, but not as great as I had hoped.
