" ... I gave it 4 stars because I expected closer shave. ... I've had philips norelco shaver for 4 years and I thought this new one was going to shave even closer with less irritaion. ... "
" ... This one shaves very well and I love the feel of the rubberized cover on the razor. ... "
" ... This razor replaces my older Norelco three-head shaver. ... So here's my review: I was looking forward to the wet shave function. ... I get a smoother shave when I do a dry shave. ... I think the shaver does deliver a smoother closer shave then my old Norelco. ... In fact, it's very close to being as close as my old Gillette razor. ... The shaver's saving grace(s) are the very close shaves and the very good battery life. ... "
" ... Excellent razor that gives excellent shave ... "
" ... I get a much closer shave than I did with the other two, and it is easy to clean and charge. ... "

" ... My old clipper/side burn attachment fits the new shaver as I don't require the beard attachment. ... "
" ... My older brother had used a Braun so I bought a Braun 7526 and used it for twenty years (and I replaced the cutter and foil each year). ... "
" ... I used it to shave my head, and I recommend you use a trimmer first to bring the hair to a stubby length, then use the Norelco 6800 in a circular motion. ... "
" ... I also really like the trimmer. ... I used to love when the trimmer was built in. ... The only thing that swayed me to like this was that it is a really well built heavy duty trimmer and is actually better that the old built in one. ... "
" ... Hence, I use my straight razor for much less time than in the past. ... "
" ... Always had a hard time with trimmers because of my hard beard -- this one so far is handling it really well ... "
" ... Smooth shave no matter how long your beard is ... "
" ... This shaver has a separate mustache and sideburn trimmer. ... One must completely remove the entire blade attachment, and set it aside and then attach the trimmer. ... "
