" ... After three weeks of daily and exclusively rotary shaving my skin has adapted and technique improved, providing me with a series of progressively closer and more comfortable shaves. ... As a bonus, I am also getting good results with using it to shave my my head (despite the Philips website clearly stating that the shaver as being designed for use on the face. ... "
" ... works well not as close as a wet shave but pretty good. ... "
" ... Bought this for my husband as he was going into hospital and needed something easy to use as has always used the wet shave method, since receiving this razor he has not stopped using it, he loves it and doesn't know why he hasn't used an electric razor before. ... "
" ... Very happy with my new shaver it gives a good shave and is much quieter than my old one. ... "
" ... Best shave that I have had with this type of razor ... "
" ... Excellent shave, not a single hair missed and at no point did I feel I would come close to cutting myself! ... "

" ... Recommend as it is a shaver and a trimmer in one. ... "
" ... Thankfully, so far so good with S3580 - a reasonably close cut, don't have to go over the same area a zillion times to get all the hairs, and relatively little skin irritation. ... "

" ... Replaced 10 year old Phillishave. ... "
" ... It seemed to be the closest model to my expired 8500 , but I purchased it with great trepidation as over the years I had already purchased two other supposedly superior Philips shavers to replace the 8500, but hadn't liked either. ... "
" ... No problems whatsoever. ... "
" ... Surely their guarantee is longer than 11 months? ... "
" ... I still think it is a good shaver and hopefully it can be repaired but perhaps this shaver is not as reliable as I first thought. ... "
" ... I purchased this to replace one that was seven years old. ... "
" ... They last about three years on average. ... Sometimes they give up but start working again. ... Here's to another three years :). ... "
" ... My last Philips lasted 30 years so it will be interesting to see how this new one preforms! ... "

" ... My dad always used these razors and I of course got his hand me downs when he bought a new Philishave. ... "
" ... Convenient to use and very comfortable. ... "
" ... Given both models feel quite "plasticky", I think £40 would have been more reasonable. ... "
" ... It does annoy me that a new Shaver costs a similar amount as a new shaver head. ... "
" ... Thankfully Philips have retained the shape of the shaver which is easy to hold. ... "
" ... Comfortable to use and does a great job. ... "
" ... My husband has Parkinson's,he says this is easy to hold,works well ,would reccomend. ... "

" ... It does a great job dry and wet, I recommend this product. ... "
" ... Very good wet/dry shaver ... "
" ... Also, skin needs time to adapt to dry shaving and so if someone is new to using an electric shaver, their skin most definitely will not be used to the experience. ... I've been electric dry shaving for 30 years, so I feel I have at least a few years experience on which to comment. ... "

Talking of price, my shaver before this one was a compact travel size shaver from Remington which I bought for £14.99, looking back I actually found the quality of this to actually be superior to this Phillips brand- felt like a much closer shave, I still own this now and i've done direct comparisons. ...
