The 9190 XL: From A Long Line of Shavers
I have been using Norelco cordless electric shavers for about 20 years now. Fortunately, years ago it did not take long for my face to adjust.<br /><br />Recently had to replace a 7 year old Norelco shaver when the internal battery charging circuitry fizzled. Because I frequently shave far away from an a/c outlet, I needed the timer display to tell me to get ready for a charge. This feature is a must and helped make my decision easy, on which new model to buy.<br /><br />Only way to get my feature was to go for the top-of-the-line 9190 XL Norelco model and make the 200 smacker investment. Thus far it has lived up to my expectations. Shaves about 40 percent quicker than the older versions and is extremely quiet !<br /><br />On the dark side, I have also found a couple of minor shortcomings: First, the travel-carrying case is difficult to unlatch. The only time it opened easily is when it fell on the floor ! This unit should not have popped open at all. Second, although the timer display is large, certain numbers are not so easy to read. A number 8 looks a lot like a 3.<br /><br />All things considered, it has been a worthwhile purchase for me and should provide years of reliable service. This one you will enjoy !
9190XL vs 6843XL
Prior to purchasing the 9190 I had been using the 6843 for 2+ years I immediately noticed a much closer and easier shave with the 1990.<br /><br />However, it had a little "bite" to it in that I felt a irritation for a couple days [maybe 3] before my skin adjusted to it.<br /><br />Prior to the 6843 I had used a Gold colored Norelco with an LCD shaves remaining window. It was superior to the low end 6843. But like all the rest, It had NiCad's and went useless even with cord in after 3 years.<br /><br />I will experiment with de-soldering the NiCads out of the 6843 and replacing with HiMh.<br /><br />I sick of throwing away big bucks for Phillips every 2-3 years.<br /><br />The 9190XL does great at longer hairs. I absolutely love it though. My wife on the other hand thinks I need to be placed in a straight jacket for shelling out $ 275.00 for an electric razor.<br /><br />KenS
Great razor
Great Razor and saves time compared to using a conventional razor and shaving cream. Worth the price, and not having to worry about buying new packs of blades every month.
smooth shave
I purchased this razor for my husband and he loves it. Gives a very close shave for smooth skin, lasts forever and has a big display.
Norelco Razor a Keeper
I received the razor after christmas. I had been using the Braun for the past 4 years. After many Foil replacements, I decided to go back to the Norelco as the Braun was not giving me a close enough shave. The Norelco advises using it for 3 weeks so your beard and skin get accustomed to it. I already like it as this is my second week of usage. I get a closer shave than my older Norelco. The improved shaving heads seem to give a closer shave. I don't have as much five o'clock shadow as I use to and I don't have that heavy of a beard. The skin sensitivity control is a plus although I have it set to "normal". My son-in-law bought one and his is set to the "sensitive setting." He is not experiencing any irritation. They have inproved on the pivioting heads and I think this has a lot to do with the improved shave and comfort. The razor LED tells you when to clean the heads. I clean it after every shave. This is simple as all you do is rinse it under hot water, shake off the excess water and set it back into the "charger holder." With the Braun, you have to purchase the cleaning fluid cartridges, an extra expense. The razor is extremely quiet compared to the Braun. Shaving at 5AM now doesn't disturb my sleeping wife. This razor works for me.
Norelco 9190XL
This is the best electric razor I have ever used bar none. Clean close shave with no irritation. Highly recommended.
Outstanding razor
This is my third Norelco and by far the best. I am a finicky shaver who, when I shaved with a blade, shaved against the grain to guarantee a close shave. This razor is comfortable to hold and gives a close shave in just a few minutes. It is easy to clean. The display is clear and gives the appropriate information regarding time consumed by the shave and time left in the charge.<br /><br />Exceeds my expectations.
Awesome
My boyfriend loves this razor. It is great for people that has sensitive skin. It tells you how much time you have left, and even has a little clock on it.
