My first Norelco (model 3405 LC) I received in December 1996 and just replaced it last month with this one. It was an electric. I don't think cordless rechargeables were available back then. It was made of the exact same material as this new model, but it didn't have individual floating heads that smoothly glide over contours of the face. I can't believe how quietly it hums compared to my old electric, so it's quite energy efficient. This shaver needs a full 8-hours to charge and provides 35 minutes of use for the S1560 model. While charging, the indicator light blinks green. Upon a full charge, the light is a steady green. When the battery has less than 5 minutes of shaving time left, the light blinks orange. I used it for 33 days before needing to recharge for the first time. A disadvantage is that this shaver will not operate while plugged in; it will only run off of the battery. The best feature is that you can rinse and thoroughly clean by running hot water over the shaver heads (circular cutting blades). It's water tight, but shouldn't be submerged, though. By cleaning the shaver heads daily, it puts less operating strain on the shaver and extends its life. With my old electric, I had to use a brush to clean hair debris and it was time consuming and I could only partially clean. I would have preferred an electric, because the lithium-ion battery can't be replaced. However, a shaver (model 3100) powered by either electricity or battery is available for $49.95 and is probably a better purchase. So I may not get as much use from this new model as I did with my first Norelco. It has provided me with two decades of reliable use, and as a loyal customer, I have to recommend this product.

i gave this to my mom to try. She has thinning hair and i was hoping this would help. She has been using this for about two weeks and it very happy with the results. She applies this right after her shampoo routine. It has not caused any irritation or redness. It is easy to use, she has been using more than one drop due to one drop she felt wasn't covering the whole area. So far i have noticed new hair growth, it is minimal but i think with continued use she will see amazing results. i received this product at a discounted price in an exchange for an honest and unbiased review, It arrived in the usual amazon box without any issues or concerns.
