17300 reSURGE Electric Lithium Titanium Precision Foil Wet/Dry Rechargeable Shaver, Black

This product is truly remarkable. How did this small Andis company get so many things right when the two major players, Braun and Norelco are missing the boat? Let me tell you what I mean and about the best features. Design The razor is packaged like an Apple device. Opening it provides the customer with a sense of confidence, as the product oozes confidence in its tightly integrated box. The design of the razor is sleek, beautiful, minimal and as a result is super easy to use. The razor has a soft touch area on it, is matte, and it has beautiful gold colored metal accents. It is the perfect size and it’s straight (non curved) design allows it to be packed in a Dopp kit easily. There is one button. It controls on and off. It is also used to lock the device to inadvertently keep it from turning on in a luggage. To lock it press and hold for 5 seconds until the light flashes. To unlock press and hold until it turns on (about 5 seconds). This also makes it an excellent travel razor. There are three LEDs that show charge level and status. Charging is done in about an hour I believe. I believe you get two hours of use but this razor will work in less than half of the time as it’s competitors (more on that below). There is one USB-C port (more on that below, as well). There is also a cover that magnetically attaches to the top to protect the foil. Under the magnetic cover is the foil. The cover (foil) removes easily but is secure at the same time. Cleaning is super easy with an included brush. Simply brush the foil off into the sink. The plastic used on this razor is thick and feels premium. Use As mentioned it is simple to use. Press the button to start and the motor hums alive. Press again and it is off. The shaver shaved extremely close. In about 30 seconds I shaved my entire face so close that I thought I used a blade, or as my wife said, it felt as though it was waxed. I tried my chest next. Super fast and again felt waxed. The shaver feels like it shaving so close it will give you razor burn but it doesn’t. I have super sensitive skin. You can also use this as a wet razor but I only used it dry. So in theory you could also wash the razor off in a sink. My Braun and Norelco razors (both only a couple years old and about $100 and $200 respectively), required longer shave times going over the spots multiple times. With the Andis razor one pass shaved the area clear of hair. This razor shaves a good solid stubble to absolute smoothness on one single pass. On longer hair (say 1/2 inch) it would be best to trim that with a different razor or keep passing over it until it cuts it. I tried it on longer armpit hair and although it eventually cut it, it required multiple passes. USB-C The most magical part of this razor is that it comes with a USB-C charger that plugs into the wall. I will only use the wall charger when home and plan to bring a simple USB-C cord with me when on the road. The big razor companies are missing out using proprietary chargers or building special holders that charge the razor and clean the head. I would imagine most people don’t want this today, as they crave simplicity. No one certainly wants to travel with a huge charging holder that is proprietary or bring more cords on the road, let alone have to keep track of that stuff at home. Plus, all of these companies tout being “green” but the lack of USB-C and giant plastic holders that use special cleaners show their true motive. What is Missing The only thing missing on the sleek packaged, amazing Andis razor is a tight and small case and a small sideburn trimmer. Even if we had an option to buy a case afterwards, that would be welcome as this razor is an excellent travel companion. I also don’t mind not having a sideburn trimmer as I have other options and soon I hope they will be Andis options. Bottom Line I love this razor and I have already told many people in the first few hours of ownership about it. This product will make me consider other Andis options. I hope Andis takes on Philips Norelco’s OneBlade. I love the OneBlade product, but it could use massive improvements including more power, faster charge times, sleeker design, USB-C, and closer shaving capability. Andis is a top end company and this razor proves it.

Excellent shaver!! I recently returned a big name Br**n shaver that did not perform & was overpriced accordingly. This Andis shaver is fantastic! Packaged like a high end product and it shaves super close. Very well made. Ergonomics are perfect. Only thing it does not have is a mustache trimmer attached. VERY MUCH RECOMMEND!!!

The best foil shaver on the market. Powerful, sleek, and nice looking. Battery last a while and it feels good in your hand.

Andis always delivers quality products I love this thing so much. It makes my face and my head so smooth. With and even against the grain it creates a smooth surface for a great feel. Material is great, solid quality as well, very durable. It is very easy to use as well. Not sure of the battery life as this is my first day with the product but I’m sure it will last. I shave my whole face and my entire head to, well pleased!

It’s far quicker, and gives a closer shave than any foil or rotary shaver ever !!! Been using it for over a month and shave quality has not declined one bit. Ergonomically, comfortable, and easy to clean. Battery life is just fine. Excellent value at a third of the cost of top brands.

I've used just about every brand of shaver; Braun, Panasonic, Norelco, Remington, Wahl. While some were good, none of them have given me as close and as comfortable as have as the Andis ReSurge. The ReSurge is an attractive shaver and the packaging is on a whole other level than any of the other brands. It is well-weighted and handles very well in my hands and holds a long charge which is displayed by three led lights. Unlike most other shavers, the foil head is "staggered" one blade is higher than the others. There is a third cutter for longer hairs in between the two blades. While the head does pivot, it doesn't pivot as easily as other pivoting head shavers I've used. It takes far more pressure to pivot the head on the ReSurge. However, I prefer a non-pivoting head so I don't view this as a negative. The cover cap is magnetic which holds firmly to the shaver. Other shavers use snap-on plastic covers, some of which don't hold well. My Braun Series 6 shaver did not even come with a cover, it's an extra-cost option. To repeat, this is the best shaver I've ever used. The styling, packaging, and shaving performance makes this a fantastic shaver. For what you get, the price is ridiculously low.

I've tried any method of shaving i can find, cartridge razors, electric razors (like a oneblade), safety razors, and i've found that no matter what, my neck is a bit sensitive. Going against the grain with any method leaves my skin a bit agitated, and can never really get a perfect shave. I've been shaving with a safety razor for about a year at this point, and figured i needed to pivot since i was still facing the same issues (albeit minor at this point, minimal to no redness but still a small bit of pain during shaving, not to mention the amount of time it takes to setup and cleanup) After research, I found this and figured it was worth a shot. To prepare, I shaved using my standard safety razor (a Henson with a Shark blade for reference) a day before expected delivery. It ended up getting delayed a day, but oh well, my hair grows fairly slow anyway. Oh if i could go back in time and stop myself from ordering this. The razor feels great in hand, but that's about it. On my face, I could tell this was a bit more aggressive than I was expecting but I was too far gone to stop. My neck has never burned this bad from shaving in my life. After alum block and soothing cream, my neck still burns about 30 minutes later while writing this review. Stay away.

I've only used this razor for one shave (it arrived yesterday), and I can attest that this shaver is the first electric I've owned (Braun, Phillips, Panasonic) that provided a shave equal to the closeness of a bladed razor. The design allowed me to easily shave up to the edges of my chin goatee without having to touch up with a blade, as was the case with my previous electrics. I can't vouch for durability or longevity since it's new, but the shave itself is outstanding. On this basis, I highly recommend.

I've been using the shaver for barely a month after getting the item, average usage about 2-3 times per week, & the foil just disintegrated during my last shaving session, contacted the customer service for replacement foil & was told that the foil is a wear & tear component, thus will not be covered via warranty, really pathetic, for such sub-standard quality foil part, might as well get a cheaper price alternative, & I'm quite sure the foil will last much longer than this, first purchase of andis product, will be the last as well, crappy product quality & nonchalant after-sales support

Low quality product, the foil worn out and torn apart after over a year use.

Ottimo, pezzo originale

Très efficace

Great shave, battery lasts awhile, USB-C charging is great for travel, easy to clean, looks fancy too. I use it to shave my head and I prefer this over using my double edge safety razor.
