I just received my this Remington saver today and used it on my dry legs and yes you have to go over it a few time's and the last time I went over my legs I put a little pressure on the shaver and I got a very very close shave just as close as I would of with a disposable razor but without the cuts I would have gotten with the disposable razor! And this shaver didn't miss any parts of my legs. That's the reason I wanted to try an electric shaver because the disposable razor's were missing spots on my legs! I haven't tried this shaver in the bikini area yet because my fiance is away till the middle of Sep so I'm not grooming down there till he comes home because no one will be anywhere near there till he's home but once he comes home I'll let you know how this work's in that area. I highly recommended this shaver I'm very pleased with how smooth my legs feel!

Burns!

Reviewed in the United States on June 27, 2015

I purchased this shaver when my cheap Panasonic Wet/Dry died. Thought I'd try something a bit more expensive, since my Panasonic lasted only three years before it died. I knew what to expect as far as closeness of shave, etc. I did not expect the razor burn! I used the Remington exactly as I had used my Panasonic, with some shave gel to help prevent burn. I could feel the Remington tearing my skin and pulling out the hair as I shaved. It left my skin more inflamed than I have ever seen, and took a lot of lidocaine and lanolin to extinguish the flames. I will return to my Panasonic. I was not a fan of the trimmer attachment on the Remington, and prefer the extendable trimmer on the Panasonic. The Remington is not good at trimming in tight spaces, if you know what I mean.

It works wonderfully to kill the leg fuzz, and I have PLENTY to kill. Totally painless and really convenient. It was faster than "regular" shaving too. The shave was not quite smooth but I am fine with it because unless someone rubs my leg, no one will know!

Nice clean shave but be careful

Reviewed in the United States on December 16, 2015

I bought this shaver since my Panasonic needed new foil and blades but it wasn't getting as close as I wanted even when it was new. So it was time to get rid of the old and try the new. This shaver does get legs closer and smoother, but one needs to be very careful when using on underarms as I have nicked myself several times. You have to really watch the angle you have the head at or you will bleed! That is the only disadvantage. Maybe if I needed to use it more I would have better luck. Would buy again.

I've been using this shaver for 6 months now and it works great. Do I get a close razer silky smooth shave? No.... it's not a razer but a shaver. That means I get a nice close shave without cutting my legs or getting ingrown hairs! I use the shaver dry (after showering, legs are clean) for about a minute every couple of days and I'm good to go. It holds a long charge, is lightweight, and a great price.

Ouch! is my update on my review from Best in Eons!

The trim blades tend to scrap horribly in the underarm areas, unless you hold it at a perfect angle to keep those blades away from your delicate skin you will have scratch injuries that take days to heal. I've had a Panasonic since the 60's that I kept buying new blades for, but it was running rough from age, so I bought this instead. I just found a replacement Panasonic on this site and hope it works as good as my oldie but goodie one. Also it is almost 1/3 the price of the Remington scraper. Sorry I inadvertently ill advised others to buy something that could scrape you. My apologies.

Great! Love it

I wish I would buy this product long time ago.I had Panasonic ES2216PC Close Curves Wet/Dry Shaver and I did not like it from the beginning. Now that I got Remington I see huge difference.The noise level is about the same but the cut...Remigton get so close to the skin that it cuts very well the hair even long hair without special attachments. It does not scratch the skin like Panasonic and it gives silky smooth effect that I love. Buy it without thinking.Great product so far with a good price that s worth to pay

Bundle includes WRONG screen and cutter replacements!

Reviewed in the United States on July 15, 2016

Verified Purchase

The shaver is fine for a quick shave as long as you don't mind feeling stubble afterwards. The thing that really irritated me is that I purchased the suggested replacement screen and cutters as part of their advertised bundle, only to discover what they recommended wasn't actually for this model!! VERY annoying. I would like to receive free shipping on the correct parts and free return shipping on the wrong parts.

Does the Job.

This shaved works as expected. As others have mentioned it will not give you the close shave that you will get with a razor but it does the job and holds a charge for multiple shaved. I gave it only 4 stars because it is suppose to be a set and dry shaved but it is difficult to use the on/off switch in the shower once its wet I usually have to teach our of the shower and use a towel for traction to get it off. It would be very difficult for someone with arthritis or other difficulties of the hands as I have no problems with mine.

Good for electric (not amazing)

Reviewed in the United States on May 12, 2016

Verified Purchase

I'm still on the search for a Remington electric shaver I had years ago that eventually died from age. This is better than my last attempt with a Panasonic similarly priced, but still only good and not great. I can get a pretty close shave (for electric) if I do multiple passes and hold my skin really tight the last pass. Still more convenient than shaving in the shower, but still just an OK electric shaver. I haven't tried it wet, but I do like being able to rinse it under water to clean it after use.
