i9000 Prestige Ultra

It was time to replace my old shaver and I wanted one that did not require a stand to always be plugged in to recharge. After a lot of waffling over specific models, I decided to go ahead and purchase this offering. I am quite happy with it, the shaves are close and the combination of shaver and sanitizer provides ample cord-free shaving time. The one thing I find could be improved is the pictograph-based user manual. There are not enough pictures presented to clearly describe all the features -- I still have not comfortably decoded the cleaning cycle using the supplied cleaning fluid. The GroomTribe app is somewhat over the top (it clearly is not necessary to use the shaver), but nonetheless fun. It would be better if the USB cable was Type C instead of Type A.

What can I say? This thing forced my Braun Series 7 into early retirement!

Very quick and sanitary charging. Nice shave that does a great job without being hard on skin.

Great shaver. But...7 year warranty? Box says 2 years despite advertising of 7 years. So I registered it and got back the confirmation of warranty. Yikes. I bought on 7/21 and received in mail 7/23/26. Confirmation of warranty says purchased 7/21 26, and that warranty expires 7/21/26, same as the purchase. And of course the warranty confirmation email cannot be responded to. What is going on here?

I've used Norelco for years and a have always been totally pleased. This is even better than any Norelco I've used before.

I was apprehensive about spending the extra money for the i9000, as I previously used Norelco mid priced shavers. But this is a game changer. First shave close, no irritation, took less than 2 minutes to shave a moderate heavy beard.

I like the fact that the shaver has a setting for sensitive skin that allow me to shave every day if I want without irritating my face. I also like the hinge on the blades allowing me to rinse them in warm water after each shave to keep them clean. I use the cleaning system about every two weeks to assure the blades are clean and lubricated. I also periodically take a blade apart to assure that it is not building dirt.

I love this product especially how close a shave I get. Not very impressed with the liquid shaver cleaner, just appears to be gimmicky.

The Prestige Ultra does exactly what it was made for. It gives a very comfortable close shave when I have gone up to 4-5 days without shaving. I also use my shaving creams and it still gives a close shave. Another reason I chose the Prestige was I have an ongoing health issue and my skin seems to be a bit more sensitive to using a double blade razor. The Prestige Ultra makes shaving very comfortable.

I have owned Philips razors for 40 years and this is the best yet. It offers e review of your shave with ways to improve
