rickman's Review of Philips HQ8894 Aquagenic 8000 Sensotec Men's Shaver

28th Jan 2006

Good Points

Nothing special in comparision to older models except a longer battery life.


Bad Points

The head is plastic (used to be metal) so don't ever drop it (which often happens considering how it is used, i.e. in a wet bathroom and being manouvered around your face) a replacement is expensive. Finally the Series 8 blade develops a hole after a month or so and that hole then cuts your skin.


General Comments

Considering the expense I have gone to so as to fix the two mentioned problems I will not be buying another Philips Shaver as Philips have obviously reduced manufacturing costs by making the head out of plastic and their design improvement seems to be exactly the opposite. Such a pity as Philips used to be a good brand.
