Remington MicroScreen2 TCT RS4623 Review

Overall Rating

Good build quality, mid priced shaver, Nice shave

Bit noisy, trimmer cutter bit useless

Remington MicroScreen2 TCT RS4623: Bought my first electric shaver for £40. The shaver fits nicely in your hand. The dual cutters make good work on your beard as long as your beard hair is not more than 2 days old beacuse then you have to make many passes over your face before it picks up every hair. But other than that it does a good job, although on some days i feel its a bit too rough on your skin at time and feels a bit sore afterwards. If you want to compare it to a normal razor(lets say the Gillette mach 3)then i'm afraid your going to be disappointed as the razor will always win in the closeness of the shave. But the electric shaver does a better job then using a normal razor shaving downwards only. When i bought the shaver i thought that it would cut my shaving time from about 20 min to down to 5-8 minute, but sadly it's only a few minutes quicker. The recharge time is about 12-14 hours and should last about a week( i.e. 5 days shave 20 min per day). Last point the trimmer is placed just in front of the cutters and makes it difficult to see and trim your sideburns because the cutters obscure your view.
Overall it's a good shaver it does it job quite well and i know for a fact that it's better than the more expensive Braun freeglider 6620 shaver which costs £84.00(i'll be writing the review for that shaver soon.)
