Electric shaver upgrade (fao people that have owned a Remington MB320C)

Cheetah Designs · 27 Sep 2012 at 13:58

The Remington MB320C gives me a great shave but I've worn two out pretty quickly and now it doesn't hold charge.

I used the shaver without the guard to give me a stubble look and it was great at it

So for people that did have this shaver, what did you upgrade to and was it actually an upgrade.

Mine is still going strong after 2 and a half years and that includes it once being dropped down the toilet.

THIS.

I got it for less than the cost of a new MB320C and it is so much nicer to use, it is gentle (the MB320C is like a lawnmower thrashing your face in comparison) and cuts well. It also means I can clip my hair nice and easily, paid for itself in a few months of haircut costs.

I still have my MB320C (bought it in 2009/2010) I just decided it was time for an upgrade and am extremely glad I did change. :cool:

Mostly irrelevant as I use it to stubble trim with no guard.

Still better than the 320C too.

I don't throw the thing around and don't have matted hair so it should be fine (and has been for 6 months), only cost about £20 or something instead of the £35 or whatever is usual price...not sure how I managed to get it so cheap as was via Amazon direct.

I have had my barba for years now, easily the best trimmer I have used. I imagine you have unfortunately just received a but of a duff example. That or you have copper wire for hair lol.

When/if my barba breaks I think i'll just buy another.

My MB320C is still working great. It needs to be left on charge for about 4-6 hours to get enough to last through a shave, if you only charge it for 1-2 hours which is what I used to try and do, it goes flat fast.
