3 out of 5 stars Just not for me   September 1, 2010
Russell L. Schurbon
I'm going back to my blade. I tried this product hoping that I would get away from the ingrown hairs that I keep getting. My facial hair is very curly and I get a lot of ingrown hairs. But I just could not get all the hairs with this electric razor. I will give it to my son who has a better time with electrics.


4 out of 5 stars Great...but   August 25, 2010
THOMAS GAUGER (BROOKLINE, MA, US)
I have used Norelco shavers for many years and when my last one stopped working I looked again on line for another one primarily for travel. (I have 2)

This one works well as I expected, but there are a couple of improvements that you might consider.

1) You advertise a larger area of the shaving head to cut more at a time. I found that the area around the blades is too wide that it hinders my shaving next to my nose.

2) This one worked for a long time after my first charge, but it has no blinking red light to let me know when my next charge is necessary. It just died. This is hardly something I want to happen on my next camping trip where there is no electricity to plug into. I'll have to remember to charge before any trip I take.

Otherwise it is a great, comfortable shave.
Tom



5 out of 5 stars Outstanding Electric Razor   August 25, 2010
T. Rindfleisch (Palo Alto, CA)
I gave up blade razor shaving 10 years ago and have owned several electric razors, including a Norelco some years back. The batteries finally gave out on a Remington I owned most recently and I returned to Norelco after looking at many reviews. The 8240XL I got from Amazon 4 weeks ago is outstanding in every way. It gives close, comfortable shaves, is compact and easy to clean, and has amazing battery life. I have charged it once since purchase and it continues to operate with plenty of power. I am very satisfied and Amazon delivered it without delay in perfect condition.


5 out of 5 stars Great gift!   August 25, 2010
Kimberly (West Lafayette, IN USA)
My boyfriend is very fussy about his electronics, so I tend to avoid surprising him with them. I told him that I was going to get him a new electric shaver, and he requested that I get one with more shaving area. Oh gosh, look what I found on Amazon!

The shaver came in its packaging, as displayed, and was delivered promptly. I subtly replaced my boyfriend's old shaver with this one and when he finally saw it and tried it out, he loved it. He loves the increased shaving area (he was twisting his old one around a lot because of the single ring of shaving space) and says that it's so much more comfortable and easier to use. It looks really good too, and the little carrying pouch that comes with it is great for travel - something he didn't have before.

It's a good buy :)



4 out of 5 stars Love it!   August 23, 2010

I bought this for my husband b-day. He tried it and love it. Worth what I paid for! From now on, rather spend money on this one than the cheap brand!

Vitamin Supplements

There are a number of essential vitamins that the body needs to function properly and it is possible to take these in the form for vitamin supplement. The majority of people do not have a balanced diet and they may be lacking in certain vitamins which means that they require a vitamin supplement to ensure that they do not have a deficiency of an essential vitamin. A health professional or dietary technician is the best person to give advice on any vitamin supplement that a person should take. It is important to seek professional advice before taking any vitamin supplement. This is because there are some vitamins that can be toxic if too much is consumed and a vitamin supplement may not be appropriate if there is enough of the vitamin already in the food a person eats.

Some categories of people may require more types of vitamin supplement than others. Vegetarians are often deficient in certain vitamins that are only found in animal products, for example, and a vitamin supplement is the ideal solution to this problem. Vegetarians do need to be aware that some vitamin supplement manufacturing processes involve animal products and it is important for them to read the labels. A large number of synthetic vitamin supplement products are available which will enable a vegetarian to take them without contravening their dietary beliefs or needs.

Vitamins: Calcium Ascorbate, Ester-C K-Mag, Vitamin A, Vitamin B, Vitamin C, Vitamin D, Vitamin E, Vitamin K1, Vitamin O, Multivitamins.

Children will often need a vitamin supplement, especially when they are extremely young. This is because a lot of children do not eat a sufficient variety of foods in their early years and a vitamin supplement can help compensate for this natural deficiency. Breast feeding has long been recommended as a source of all the essential nutrients but women who choose not to or are unable to bottle feed may be concerned as to whether their baby needs a vitamin supplement. The large majority of baby milk formulas contain additional vitamins to prevent the need for a vitamin supplement to be given. It is important to discuss any concerns over the need for a baby or child to take a vitamin supplement with a health professional to ensure that the correct solution is found.


Elderly people or those suffering from certain diseases or illnesses are other groups of people that may need to take a vitamin supplement. The body may often need a vitamin supplement to compensate for a person not being able to consume the recommended daily allowance of certain vitamins through their normal diet.
