Best shaver I ever owned.

My wife bought me this shaver 15 years ago as wedding present. I used it up until three months ago when it's battery finally gave in :( . Today I replaced the battery (DIY) and my shaver is good to go. Here's to another 15 years LOL

Pros

Nice and small very convenient when travelling.

Cons

Not water proof

Not good compared to earlier versions

Always used philips and will continue to but as I have had this for a while and never really liked it compared to the earlier mode I had, which got pinched, that went on and on. The blades didn't last that long and the head pops of too easy which was really frustrating.
