Do any of the gentlemen on this forum have experience with the newest Remington shavers? For reasons too lengthy to go into here, I'm more than a bit disappointed with the current big three: Braun, Panasonic, Philips - I've tried them all.
My first electric shaver was a Remington with slotted heads, given to me by my mother when I was 16. I't wasn't all that good for my teenage skin. I also remember the TV commercials with Victor Kiam in the 'nineties ("I bought the company.") How has Remington developed since then?
I've only used their lowest end foil shaver (all black, no pivot, no middle cutter but just foils) and it did a fine job of shaving but missed long hairs very bad. If you wanted to always trim first before shaving it could be passable but a hassle. I have done a lot of research on modern Electrics, you can only take reviews with a grain of salt so I look for consistent trends in reviews and I consistently read one negative about all Remington shavers: their foils need to be replaced every 3-4 mo the regardless of what the manual says. Most users report 12-18 months with Braun, Panasonic, or Philips.
This is a good review of one of their offerings:
