Philishave HQ8870

Isn't it amazing how many sensitive men there are on the go? ::) I thought they were a dying breed.

Thanks to everyone for their posts, it was really useful to get some feedback from you all.

I did end up ordering the Philishave so I daresay time will tell if it was a mistake or not. I guess you don't really know what suits until you try it.

Thanks to the op for saving me money. ;D I would've ended up with a lesser model if I hadn't seen this thread and that would possibly not been as good for his skin.

If it turns out it's not suitable, we'll just re-wrap it and give it to other half for his birthday! ;D Kidding!

Hubbie has tried it today. He has very sensitive skin and is always a bit red and swollen after wet shaving. He hasn't used an electric for many years as last electric shaver (rotary philishave) used to make his skin sore. However 6 hours after using he is smooth as a baby and no redness or sorness.

Also a pretty close shave. He is well pleased ;D


Wonder what it would be like on my legs LOL ::)

Try Trumpers (LOL) wet shave tips to avoid red face/legs;

Good deal

I find foil ones are are better if you have longer hair to cut else the rotary ones start ripping your face off. But for stubble the rotary ones are better (get a closer shave). Essentially the foil ones dont pull on the hair so you may still get the feeling of a bit of hair there but the rotary ones pull then cut thus getting a closer shave

Did anyone else buy in store or did you buy on line. When I bought in store I handed in a 10% off voucher which a friend had given me. I think they give them to staff for family and friends. Anyway my 10% off came off the full price £150 (£15 discount) so I paid £60 pluse triple points.

That was a good deal Poppy. Online for me with 10% code and 900 points.

Ended up ordering 2 on separate orders (long story ::)) but one will be getting returned. I wonder if they'll take the points back too. :-/

As usual, just when I find a bargain it's out of stock!!

They do have the Braun Freeglider 6680 though down from £108.99 to £54.49.

Can anyone tell me if this is as good? It's to be a Christmas pressie for son in law. Also where do I get a discount code?
