Is anyone else facing the problem in shaving the neck? Is anyone else facing this issue?

I use the soft setting first and then finish with the lock setting. My neck has always been an issue...hairs grow in multiple directions.

Not so well! As it works brilliantly to shave the neck and face it does not translate well to other parts of the body!

Same here !!! Hair grows in all directions on my face too. Somehow I am not able to clear my neck properly. What is the soft setting for?

I have two of these shavers, and haven't had any problems at all. The only time mine makes an odd noise is when the screen isn't seated properly, which makes the cutters hit it. I never needed any maintenance, but maybe you could try taking the cutters off and rinse them off, then make sure that the cutters and screen are all installed correctly. Hope this helps.

Got mine earlier this week and while I'm still trying it out, the lock does work for me. After a few days of shaving vibration, it loosened a bit, but that was solved by just pushing it fully back in the locked direction. Sounds like yours is malfunctioning.

I haven't used mine for a bit, battling an issue with my skin... but I never had any issues with it. What issues are you having?

How long are you running it for? I've done grooming in sections since my shih tzu has alot of hair and not alot of patience. I do remember reading that just from duration of running the razor will have some heat. My best guess is it is a normal occurrence and perhaps to do shorter grooming sessions. I typically do 30min shaves with breaks/treats and I haven't experience it getting hot yet. Hopefully that helps dispel any worry.

Oh yeah, big time. For me, certain spots (chin, under jaw line, etc) won't get shaved close enough without head locked.

No. Another reason it didn't work for me. Very cumbersome. And uneven shave.

Everybody has varying results. I'm average and shave everyday. I would get one shave after that a lot of tugging and pulling making it very uncomfortable. I ended up tossing mine and now use Feather. Get 3-4 comfortable shaves with Feather. But like I stated everyone will vary.

I have used all models. This one is the least likely to nick or chaffe the skin due to the flexible head. If you pull the skin taut while shaving the private areas it's more likely to pull or nick the skin. Of course their is no perfect way, I've just learned from lots of nicking myself. Staying clean with a few nicks still beats the alternative.

Had mine just over three months. I use it with hot water and hand soap. The blades are definitely less efficient than they were, although still better than my last razor.Out of the posters on this thread, three indicate a life of 3-4 months... Interesting. Guess I'll try the "Tom's brushless cream".J. Thayer, how old are you and how hard is your beard?

Hi Danni, sorry for the delay. Could you be more specific? Did you spend a long time on one session? Or have you been using it for a few of weeks and that's what you mean by 'a long time'? Are you completely new to this method of hair removal or are you dissatisfied with this particular epilator?

Me, too! I had very little trouble adjusting, though I was also nervous to switch,but it is much better for the environment. There are many videos on YouTube but just make sure you use a slick, glycerin soap, keep the area wet and soapy, and keep a light touch, letting the razor's weight do the work. Be extracareful around bones and curves. Find your favorite blade by trying sample packs available online. Good luck! You can do this!

I have not used the razor for my head. However I think there are razor, both electric and manual, that are made for this purpose

I only tried shaving my face and neck - The razor you might try is a trimmer for breads because this razor is kinda bulky.

I have had no problems. This is such a simple mechanism and the razor is so well machined that I cannot imagine what could go wrong. Usually this is some kind of user fault, not a fault of the materials.
