Customers say

Customers find the electric shaver delivers a closer shave than 5-blade razors and performs reliably, with good battery life lasting a long time on a charge. They appreciate its ease of cleaning as it washes out easily under the tap, and while some find it well-priced, others consider it not worth the money. The shaver receives mixed feedback regarding its speed, with some finding it quick while others say it runs slow, and its build quality, with some praising its solid construction while others note it feels flimsier than previous models. The charger compatibility also gets mixed reviews, with some appreciating the quick charging feature while others point out the lack of a regular plug-in charger.

    What a fast and smooth cut! I've had both wet or dry foil shavers and this 3 blade rotary and there's no comparison. The foil cutter took twice as long to get about 80% of the way to what this Norelco 3900 did. Quiet, efficient and water proof so clean-up is quick and easy. I've never had an electric shaver that cost hundreds of dollars, but I can't imagine it doing any better a job than this one for around $80. For me, the 3-head rotary type shaver is hands down superior to the blade type foil shaver.

    Why did you pick this product vs others?:
    I recently bought this Norelco Series 3900 razor to replace a 20 year old Series 3000 Norelco. I like that it can be used Wet -or- Dry, is rechargeable and because of advances in design it stays so much cleaner between uses. I will continue to purchase Norelco electric razors because they work for me.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Norelco makes my favorite electric shavers.
    Reviewed in the United States on June 10, 2023
    Color: Space GraySize: Shaver Series 3000 + Charging StandVerified Purchase
    I've been using electric shavers for over thirty years. In addition to Norelco, I've also owned electric shavers made by Remington and Braun. Of the different razor brands/types I've tried, I like Norelco shavers the best. Why? I find that I get a better and faster shave with the Norelco three-rotary-head design over foil-type shavers. Also, Norelco shavers are noticeably quieter than foil shavers.

    Shaving Performance: This shaver shaves very well. Several years ago I purchased one of Norelco's expensive top-of-the-line models. I found that it didn't shave any better than the mid-priced models I usually buy.

    Pop-Up trimmer: This is the worst thing about this razor. It doesn't work very well when I use it to trim my sideburns and mustache. I find it difficult to get a straight line on my sideburns. I ended up buying a dedicated trimmer just for my sideburns and mustache. The poor performance of the pop-up trimmer is the reason I rated this razor at four stars instead of five.

    Shaving Time Per Charge: I get at least forty-five minutes of shaving on a single charge. As with other devices that use a rechargeable battery, you can expect the number of shaves per charge to diminish as the razor ages. It takes approximately one (1) hour to recharge the razor.

    Indicator Lights: This razor is equipped with three white lights on the housing that indicate the charging status (the owner’s manual provides full details). An orange light will begin to flash when you have no more than five (5) minutes of shaving time remaining.

    Housing Shape: Compared to some of my older Norelco razors, the housing shape of this razor is a little more square and less rounded. At first I didn’t like it as much. But I’ve gotten used to it. Overall, it fits comfortably in my hand.

    Blades: Norelco says to replace the blades once a year. I find this to be a good recommendation. I once went eighteen months on an older Norelco before buying new blades. The razor got to the point where it wasn't shaving very well. A new set of blades fixed the problem. Note: When you purchase a new set of Philips Norelco blades, they come with a matched set of slotted combs. Tip: I once purchased some cheaper third-party blades not made by Philips Norelco. That was a mistake. They didn't shave well at all. I returned them, and now I only buy genuine Philips Norelco blades. They’re more expensive, but they’re worth it. Look closely when buying replacement blades. Many third-party brands try to make you think you’re purchasing the genuine article. All of the genuine Philips Norelco blades that I’ve purchased were made in the Netherlands.

    Shave Wet or Dry: I like that I can use this razor wet or dry. When I want the closest possible shave, I first cover my face with a light layer of hair conditioner. It creates less drag too.

    Quality: The fit and finish of the razor is excellent. I found no nicks, scratches, or poorly fitted parts.

    Power Button Location: Some of my previous Norelco razors had the on/off button located right where your thumb grips the razor. While it was convenient, it meant that I sometimes accidentally turned the razor off when shaving. The power button on this razor has been moved a little lower on the housing. The location is not quite as convenient, but I’ve yet to turn the power off by accident.

    Day to Day Cleaning: For day to day cleaning, just flip open the top and hold the underside of the shaving head under hot running tap water (it's normal for water to drip from the bottom of the razor after rinsing).

    More Extensive Cleaning: Facial oil and hair (especially longer hair), will eventually accumulate in the blades and slotted combs that aren’t removed entirely by rinsing under hot water. Extensive cleaning requires that you remove the blades and combs from the shaving head. Norelco's previous design made reassembly of these parts a bit tricky. But the newer design of this razor makes the process much easier.

    Here's my cleaning process: Word to the wise. If you're going to do this in the bathroom, close the stopper in your sink. If you accidentally drop a blade or a comb in the sink, there’s a good chance it’ll fall down the drain, and you’ll have to disassemble your plumbing to retrieve the parts. 1. Flip open the top. There's a knob in the center of the retainer that holds the blades/combs in place. Twist the knob slightly and lift the retainer out. Note: Before continuing, it's important to remember that the blades and combs are matched sets. Do not mix different blades with different combs. 2. Remove the blades and combs from the shaving head. Soak them in some isopropyl alcohol for a couple of minutes. 3. Use a soft toothbrush to gently brush away any hair on the blades and combs. 4. When the blades and combs are clean, place each blade back in its matching comb, then place the combs back in the shaving head (it doesn't matter which comb goes where). 5. Set the retainer in place, and give the knob a slight twist to lock it in position (you can feel it lock in place). Note: If you can’t easily lock the retainer in place, or you’re having difficulty closing the shaving head, it most likely means that the retainer isn’t positioned and/or locked properly. I've used this cleaning method for decades, and it's worked well for me.

    Note: Some of Norelco's more expensive razors include a solvent-based cleaning system. I've used it, and I personally think it's not worth the extra cost.

    Charging Stand: This razor includes a charging stand. But I don’t like using them. When my razor needs to be charged, I simply plug the charging cord directly into the razor.

    Warranty: A two-year limited warranty is included. But understand that the warranty doesn't cover worn out blades. In addition, Philips Norelco offers a forty-five (45) day money back guarantee if you’re not happy with the razor (see owner’s manual for details).

    Dislikes: I have three complaints about this shaver:

    1. If you run out of juice before you're through shaving, you can't finish your shave by plugging it into a wall outlet (the included power cord is for charging the battery only). However, I find that if I charge the battery for just five minutes, it gives me enough of a charge to finish shaving. Pay attention to the orange flashing light on the body of the razor. It tells you that you’ve got less than five minutes of shaving time remaining.

    2. It wasn’t made in America. Sorry, but no American manufacturing jobs were created when you purchase this razor. I'd willingly pay more to see "Made in USA" on this shaver, but I know I'm in the minority. This razor was designed in the Netherlands and was made in Indonesia. All of my previous Norelco razors were made in the Netherlands.

    3. The pop-up trimmer is junk. Buy yourself a dedicated trimmer for your beard, mustache, and sideburns.

    My Review: I did not receive a free razor, any compensation, or any other free items from Norelco or Amazon for my review. My opinions are my own.

    I got this as a replacement shaver and find it a little “underwhelming “. It doesn’t seem to have much power and after using it for three weeks, it still doesn’t feel like it gives me a “smooth” shave. I find myself using a safety razor to “finish” the job. I suppose if you’re looking for something you can travel with and don’t need a super close shave, this might work for you. If you’re looking for something that makes you go, “WOW!!! I’VE NEVER HAD A SHAVE LIKE THIS BEFORE”…you may have to keep looking.

    Why did you pick this product vs others?:
    Works great. Good price. I’ve used this daily since December and it’s still going strong.

    This is my second shaver from this brand (first shaver still working, but deserved to retire after 10 yearseveryday use). From short try of some cheap stuff I have to come back to philips again, and happy about that

    5.0 out of 5 stars Magnifica y grata sorpresa

    Digo grata magnifica sorpresa, ya que por mas de 50 años, intenté por mas de una ocasión, con una marca y otra, diferentes modelos, etc. usar alguna rasuradora eléctrica para barba y con ninguna me acomodé. Los resultados venían siendo desastrosos, mal rasurado e invariablemente con la cara, pero sobretodo el cuello, terriblemente irritado, molestia que me duraba mas de 3 o 4 dias y tenia que usar crema para "rozaduras de bebé" para reducir el ardor y la molestia.
    En consecuencia, regresaba a usar el rastrillo, cuestión que no me molesta, mi barba a eso está acostumbrada, ya que es "cerrada" en toda la cara y gruesa y solo el rastrillo me ha venido funcionando.
    Por no dejar una vez más y para efectos prácticos solamente y con la idea de un uso eventual, cuando salgo de prisa por la mañana, con el deseo latente de poder rasurarme en el coche mientras me dirijo al trabajo, decidí volver a intentar el uso de la eléctrica, las siete maquinas eléctricas anteriores, las regalé después seguramente de algunos intentos desilusionantes, pero nuevamente con la ilusa esperanza de explorar por una maquina que cubra esta necesidad, busque opciones, por supuesto con buenas reseñas de usuarios, un costo bajo para evitar un derroche porque no me haya satisfecho el resultado.
    Así y con reservas poco optimistas, elegí esta rasuradora eléctrica, el resultado es excepcional, caray tan motivante que por eso dejo éstas líneas escritas para manifestar mi gusto. Me he rasurado con esta maquina en seco y no sufrí la irritación tan temida por mi en el cuello, buena rasurada al ras, pero mas aún, la lleve a la regadera y con el jabón simple de uso, en la cara, la maquina corrió perfecto, rápido y de manera confortable, me he rasurado.
    Espero que el gusto se prolongue, pero hoy puedo afirmar, es una excelente opción para una barba cerrada y gruesa como la mía, de piel extraordinariamente sensible en el cuello y por primera vez, me atrevo a dejar constancia tan amplia como lo he echo ahora.
