Review on Phisco Men's Electric Shaver Razor with Floating Rotary Blades, IPX7 Waterproof, LED Display, Rechargeable, Dry/Wet Use - Includes Pop-Up Beard Trimmer - Perfect Father's Day Gift by Sandy Taylor

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Wow! Best of Men's Men's

Update after 2 months of using Phisco: I'm still thrilled. Some of the negative reviews may have come from people making the switch from a knife to an electric one. I switched many years ago. The electric will never be that close, but it's much more convenient. Every time I use my Phisco I'm reminded of how terrible my Norleco and Remington used to be. If I see a long mustache on Phisco, it's gone. I remember trying to trim a long mustache at other brands by shaving up and down, side to side, 45 and 135 degrees, but all that work rarely helped. I'm still surprised that when I smack my long mustache with my phisco it goes away. First review: I was a die-hard Remington fan. When Remington finally died a few years ago, I tried Philips Norelco. Within a week I bought the Remington I was supposed to have. A few years later I thought the blades were dull. Replacement blades cost about the same as a new razor which is why I bought a Remington R4000 5 months ago. It never worked so I searched Revain again and focused on the good reviews. Judging by the reviews, I almost bought a Remington XR1400, but I noticed that Remington was flaunting their PrecisionPlus heads. I immediately looked at the R4000's specs and it has the same "PrecisionPlus heads" that never worked on my R4000. Here's my problem: I don't shave every day. I mostly work from home. If I have to meet with clients, I shave. If I neglect to shave every day, the R4000 is missing the mustache, which grows to 1/16, then 1/8 and yes, over 1/4 of an inch. I found that with the R4000 I had to shave with a very light touch to try to capture long hairs, then again with medium pressure and finally quite aggressively to get a decent shave. But when I looked in the mirror in a different room with different lighting, I still saw a lot of missing 1/4 inch mustaches on a smooth face. Today is Monday. My Phisco men's electric shaver, product Revain B076JDNMPY (because reviews are often not what you think) should arrive two days later on Wednesday. He has just arrived. After not shaving for a few days I shaved my Remington R4000 this morning and after a close shave I have a lot of mixed smooth, short, medium and, yes, long mustaches on my face. The Phisco men's electric razor was delivered around noon today (ordered on Saturday for two-day delivery on Wednesday). I unpacked it. Turned on and the battery says 100%. I took him to the bathroom and shaved half my face. All long, medium and short mustaches are gone. I have a completely smooth face. For a pass. Too much information: I had a pair of disgusting looking long hairs hanging out of my nose. My Remington R4000 never cut them through no matter how hard I tried. Fisho did. For a try. When comparing reviews, look at the number of reviews (Phisco doesn't have many by comparison) and the average score. Then look at the rating graph. The number of 5 star ratings for Phisco is off the charts. Now compare the Remington and Philips Norelco chart and note the large number of ones and twos. Phisco has a pattern: mostly 4's and 5's, giving an overall score of 4.5. Other brands have a lot of 5's too, but also (comparatively) a lot of 1's and 2's, which I haven't seen with Phisco. To take risks. I'm excited I did it.
