Norelco 9160XL

Customer review: This is an excellent
shaver. I have used the shaver for over two weeks and the battery still
does not need to be recharged. The "rinse under the faucet"
feature makes it easy to keep the shaver clean. The shaver heads give
a smooth clean shave. I have owned several Norelco shavers over the years
but this one is the best.

Customer review: The model number is important, as others
of this series have cumbersome sounding "extras" - very costly
- which I doubt add anything (a cleaning device and a gel to shave with).
Having used rotary Norelcos for nearly 50 years, I have found some "upgrades"
to new models to be of limited value; but the 9160XL is a clearcut improvement
from my 5+ year old one. It shaves more closely, is not irritating to
skin (as they warn) and is very easy to keep clean by frequent washing
in tap water.
It is also much quieter and very light weight, yet does not appear to
be flimsy. Time will tell, but I am optimistic.

Customer review: I bought this particular
shaver (9160XL) based on reviews in this column. They were right, it performs
as expected. I have had an ongoing problem with blade razors (for years)
such as skin irritation and ingrown wiskers. I have used this for 2 weeks,
no irritation. Excellent. The directions, and other reviewers have mentioned
a 3 week break in to get your face used to it. I found that to be true
for about the first week. After that I seem to have it down, and get a
consistent, as well as good, shave every time. A blade can be closer,
however, this is easier! The only thing I find is that it takes two passes,
first before I shower inthe morning, second right after. I not competely
sure why that is, but would suggest there is enough fricksion on the skin
to cause a little swelling, but after a shower that goes down, and I can
finish. The cahrge seems to last quite well, 2 weeks on the first charge.
The only thing I don't like is the stand that comes with the razor. It
could be much more solid, and easier to put the shaver into.

Customer review: I have had several
Norelco shavers and this is the best of them all. It is very quiet and
the charge seems to last forever. It is the closest shave I have gotten
from an electric razor. I used to shave with a blade but switched about
15 years ago. Will never go back. Great product.

Customer review: So 1989 gave us lift
& cut. The late 90's gave us Norelco's Quadra system. Now finally,
for the first time in its 40+ years as the leading maker of rotary shavers,
Norelco gives us a system that covers more area, with more speed and comfort
than ever before. It doesn't just promise a faster, closer shave, it delivers.
I can't speak for all guys, but let me try to break-down the electric
/ blade dilemma. Blades are closer, but cause irritation. So most blade
users tend to skip a day to avoid that. Furthermore, you get a closer
shave with a blade if you let the stubble grow a bit, so skipping a day
is a common practice. But blade shaving gives guys far more options in
terms of products to choose from, both for shavers and shaving conditioners
and gels. Simply put, if you want a close shave and the ability to control
all aspects of shaving, and see what you're cutting, the blade is the
best way to go.
Then there's electric. An idea hatched from the late 1950's space
age / cold war era that told us that blade shaving was a thing of the
past. Electric shaving promised to be as close as a blade for decades,
but never delivered. But over the years it has delivered its promise of
a safer, faster, and less irritating shave. For guys who don't like shaving
around the sensitive lips and nose areas, electric has its advantages.
All electric shavers fail to cut the longer neck hairs effectively,
including the new Norelco XL series. But the XL is still a major breakthrough.
Simply put, it has switched me back to electric after 6 years of using
blades. The new rotors have three rows of blades, and an innovative mix
of slots and holes for stubble, making-use of dead space that was Norelco's
weakness since their beginning. The XL has the inward tilt mechanism introduced
with the Quadra. And it has the late 80's lift-and-cut technology, which
doesn't work exactly as advertised, but it does shave flat areas of the
face as close as a blade (the cheek and upper lip areas do get the closest
cut).
The XL series is easy to clean under hot water, another development
from the Quadra series, which is even better and more effective here.
The XL gives me the closest electric shave I've ever had. And I can
use it daily for a consistent smooth look without irritation. Add the
recent development of products like Anthony for Men's alcohol-based pre-shave
solution, and electric shaving suddenly has advantages worth making the
switch. I liked the XL so much, I got the 9160XL for home, and the less-expensive
8140XL for my office. The 2 shavers are the same, except for the smart
touch pivoting feature, which is not a big bonus in my opinion. The pivoting
feature makes it possible to shave the neck and chin faster, but the results
for both shavers is exactly the same, meaning that some neck hairs are
going to be missed, making it necessary to use a blade to do some quick
cleanup. Electric is far from perfect, but this is the closest and most
comfortable electric yet. I'm sticking with it.
And since the XL is Norelco's top of the line model, it is still
made in Holland. All other Norelco's are made in China. it won't be long
before the XL is made in China as Norelco develops it's next breakthrough.
But the XL is the big breakthrough as far as I'm concerned. I'm hooked.
And I'm a total shaving geek now.

Customer review: I must say this is
the best shaver that I've had, shaves pretty much like a blade shave only
less irritation. I had a Quadra before and upgraded myself to this shaver.
It's been about 3 weeks since I've used the 9160xl and it's been good
so far. I did have a couple of weeks adjustment phase even though I was
using my Quadra (maybe the technique I use). It was irritating in the
cheeks area initially but now have got adjusted, it's cool. The major
improvement is in the jaw and neck region, not at all irritating and the
sensitive modes do help. I think the Smarttouch is a plus than the SpeedXL
models (again that is at a personal level), I feel it's easier on the
wrist.
