Philips Electric Shaver 3000 Series - Wet & Dry Electric Shaver for Men with SkinProtect Technology in Space Grey, Pop-up Beard Trimmer, Cordless Shaver with Travel Pouch (Model S3241/12)

My previous Philips shaver has lasted years, and was for me the best shaver I have ever owned. When it gave up, I bought a Remington as a replacement, and it was awful. So, looking online I spotted this model on offer and bought it. I can honestly say that it is brilliant! I've only used it once, but it works very well. It's a clean shave, no tearing out hairs, cuts very well and leaves my skin smooth and not sore. Charges very fast and great to have a battery indicator, and also being a usb charger makes it goo for travelling. Overall, very pleased and can recommend this shaver.

Quality shaver

I've had two Philips AquaTouch AT899 shavers over the past decade; both of which gave a brilliant shave, but both of which also failed on me at various points. The 3000 series appears to be the closest equivalent, which at £60 (compared to the £40 or so I'd previously spent per razor) seems to be their current entry range for a wet & dry shaver. The 3000 is bigger/taller but slimmer than the AT899, but overall a similar design and nice to hold. I usually use it in the shower with foam or gel. In terms of performance, on initial impressions, it doesn't offer quite as smoother shave as the older AT899, which felt almost as close as a typical cartridge razor. The 3000 gives a pretty rough dry shave, though it does give a more satisfactory wet shave, which for me is its main purpose. It is adequate for the job - though it doesn't feel like an upgrade, despite the higher price tag. It is a comfortable shave; no burn or pulling, and the motor's not too loud either. The position of the power button is more central on the body (on the AT899, it was easy to accidentally switch it off during mid-shave), so I'm still getting used to this lower location. Its only physical design flaw is the button to open the head is less discreet and more prominent; it was ideally positioned on the AT899, slightly hidden under the head, whereas now it's much easier to flip it open even when removing or replacing the cap. The sideburn trimmer pops out and does exactly what you'd expect. One main difference is this comes with a USB charging cable, rather than the traditional two-prong shaver plug (and the fitting is such that it will only work with the USB cable), and it charges pleasingly fast. In the box, you get a cap and a fabric travel bag for it, but there's no little brush, like what you used to get. Overall, it seems like a well-made and decent product for its price bracket - I can't bring myself to spend in excess of £100 or more on a higher model (what kind of nonsense are those prices?!), so I think for a day to day electric razor, it fits the bill nicely, even though I still preferred the results of past models.

Excellent product. Wet or dry. Battery lasts forever.

Bought this shaver for Dad because of durability and close shave. He uses it for dry shaving only. It is quick and easy to clean. The shaver was a good price. Charging through USB cable and charge monitor (3 lights) is great. Highly recommend.

Best electric shaver iv ever bought, this is my second after a few years. Smooth as silk over the skin, dosn't grate or tug like the many others iv tried.

Looks good quality, comfortable to hold, easy to use, only used once so far as a test, and so far so good. Twice the price of my defunct two year old razor, but its a well known brand, so a fair price, so I have high hopes. Only time will show its durability.

Wow. Just like my old Philips but updated. That one lasted 20 yrs before it packed up this year! To another 20 yrs with this one.

Mycket rakapparat för en liten peng. Bra köp

My Philips shaver finally fell apart after a mere 14 years, so I bought this replacement. It is fine, very happy with it. Delivers a good, close shave comfortably. I read a few reviews on here, saying it "tears the hair out of your face", so I let my beard grow for a few days while I awaited delivery of the new shaver to see if this was true. It isn't. It doesn't tear the hair out of your face at all. A really good product at a decent price. Philips get four, rather than five, stars for deciding to extinguish several forests by including the same bulky safety document four times for some bizarre reason, accompanied by one of those rubbish instruction guides that only use pictures. Fortunately, it is a shaver, so using it is not a complex affair and it is pretty much the same as my last one.

A este precio funciona como una maquinilla mucho más

Dopo 10 giorni di costante utilizzo giornaliero posso considerare che è un buon prodotto. Non essendo espertissimo in materia recensisco questo Philips a confronto del mio vecchio Braun serie 5 che è durato 10 anni. Devo ammettere che inizialmente il Philips mi ha lasciato un po' perplesso per il peso perché essendo molto inferiore al Braun questo mi dava una sensazione di poca sostanza e per la rasatura delle 3 testine rotanti che non c'ero abituato, ma ovviamente sono due prodotti diversi e ci fa l'abitudine. Il risultato della rasatura rispetto al Braun è meno liscia ma il Philips vince su una rasatura più morbida e meno aggressiva lasciando la pelle priva di irritazione. Durata della batteria ottima, più di 10 rasature fatte bene e non di fretta e non era ancora scarico del tutto, Spero solo nella lunga durata come ha fatto il mio caro vecchio Braun. Lo ricomprerei? Assolutamente si!
