GAMMA+ Absolute Zero Mens Foil Shaver Collection

Buena calidad

Works perfect…

I purchased this about 2 months ago, and gave it a little time before writing a review. I've been shaving with foil razers for most of my adult life, and I can honestly say that this is the best foil shaver I have ever used! So, why only 4 stars? The trimmer is terrible.I went looking for a new shaver to replace my Remington F4790. I found during my search that all the new Remington models use a pop-out trimmer, not the slide-up style on my F4790 or the Gamma+ Absolute Zero. Based on the excellent reviews and the slide-up trimmer, I purchased the Gamma+. I put new foils in my Remington, and for 4 weeks shaved one side of my face with the Remington and the other side with the Gamma+. I found the quality of the shave on each side to be about the same, but getting there with the Gamma+ took 2/3 of the time. Saving a third of the time, to get the same shave, every day? Sign me up!The only problem is with the trimmer. I use the slide-up trimmer on my neck, where I don't shave (I've found this to look fine and minimize ingrown hairs). The Gamma+ trimmer is useless. It's worse than those pop-out trimmers on the Remington models I was trying to avoid. It won't even cut my sideburns. As of now, I am using the trimmer on my R4790 to trim my neck hairs and touch up my sideburns, and shaving with the Gamma+. Since using two razors every day is a pain (and the Remington won't hold a charge, so I can only use it corded), this is only an interim option until I can find a solution in a single razor.If you don't need the trimmer, BUY THIS SHAVER. It is far and away the best I've tried for shaving. And, it's light-weight (lighter than my travel razor!) and powerful. It holds a long-lasting charge (probably aided by how quickly you get a great shave).If you need razor with a good trimmer, look elsewhere. Heck, if you need a razor with even a barely-functioning trimmer, look elsewhere.To Gamma+, I say... great job on the shaver, let's get that trimmer fixed in the next model.Update: So, the trimmer is very flawed. As well as not being very effective from the start, the design allows the powdery shavings from the shaver to fill the area where the trimmer snaps onto the shaver body. When my trimmer stopped working about 3 months in, I sent an email to Gamma+ Customer Service. They sent me a new snap-on trimmer (sans directions), and when I popped off the old one, I realized there was so much build-up that it lifted the trimmer away from the driver on the shaver body. So, if your trimmer stops working, pop it off (it just snaps in place) and clean it out, then snap it back on.

So, my daily driver for shaving my head is a Wahl T-Cut which gets me down to stubble. I got this for occasions when I want to go smooth, and it is overall a failure. I have tried going against the grain, with the grain, more pressure, less pressure. slow, fast, every way I can think of, and no matter what I do it takes forever to get anywhere close to smooth. I can eventually get there, but it takes waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy longer than I ever thought it would. I have to go over the same area over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over. And sometime more than that. Major disappointment.

Fits perfectly!

Not as big as expected....I had to put the foils into my other bracket because this looks close to another brand. For the price I took the chance. Still haven't found what I'm looking for. The guages (holes) aren't as grand as promoted. Another words it doesn't seem tougher beard hair....

I did use it the first with a professional barber then I fall in love with it I bought it's for 70$ please keep the same quality Ill buy more as a gift for my loved family

My two day stubble could sand a piece of wood. I’ve spent lots of money buying the so called ‘best’ shavers. They either won’t shave very close or the blades go dull quickly. I ran across this Gamma about two years ago. I Travel a lot so I thought I’d give it a try. It is by far the best electric shaver I’ve ever owned.I don’t use it every day, but I have used it a lot. It comes with an extra set of blades, but the original set is still as good as new, after two years! And check this out, the Gamma takes a little longer but it actually shaves closer than a four or five blade hand razor. Based on my 40 plus years of shaving, I’d say this is overall the best shaver on the market. Oh, it holds a charge forever.
