Satisfactory performance but not that great
Speed of cutters appear to be slower than expected. Cleaning brush does not work very well.

Product has great features, but poor info
I like the product. I don't like the sketchy and confusing product information available from the Philips customer interface. Why is the clean pod available in two different presentations with widely different prices, and only a cassette of fluid being the apparent difference between them? Are there two different types of clean pod for the 5000 series shavers? If so, why not state what the differences are? If not, why the very different price? It was equally difficult to get a feeling for the differences between the various model numbers, which sometimes seemed to reflect simply the configuration of extras included in the sales package (eg, cleaning brush, soft travel bag, etc). Was your goal to confuse the purchaser? Very little technical detail was included to back up descriptions. For example, how does the power regulation system actually work? What is it intended to do? Is it intended to make the battery charge last as long as possible? Or is it intended to enhance the action of the cutting blades? I'm glad I persisted through all this confusion to eventually end up with what I wanted: a series 5000 shaver, a hard travel case (which I bought separately), a cleaning pod (which I bought separately), and several cleaning fluid cassettes (which I bought separately). I now have as well, a surplus cloth bag for the shaver, because it was part of the model S5887 product for some reason. I am noticing the significant differences in shaving ease compared to my previous Philips model 6851 shaver. I like the idea of the clean pod system, which is very well contrived and works smoothly and simply, with no detectable residue left in the shaver once the fluid has drained back into the reservoir of the clean pod. I think the engineering department has been let down by the sales and marketing effort which seems lacklustre and poorly considered.

Better than expected
This is now my ‘go to’ shaver. Previously wet shaving every other day with my old shaver but now only once a week. Very pleased. In fact surprised how good it is.

Best current rotary shaver at a reasonable price.
I bought this to replace my 25 year old 8894 which was the best and most amazing shaver I have ever owned. It is in fact still working. The series 5000 comes very close in shaving terms but the 8894 is much easier to clean.

Phillips 5000 very close shave.
The Phillips 5000 series, wet and dry shaver gives a very close shave indeed, probably 97% as close as a razor. It is very comfortable too hold and has a sideburn trimmer built in, so no taking the head off to fit it. I. Love it much more than my old one.

Philips series 5000
Not at all impressed with the quality of shave. Awful experience and so back to my original Philips shaver.
