At the time I made the mistake of stepping on a Philips mower, the last such super expensive model, waterproof and dropped me after 6 months. Since this bad experience I distrust mowers "mid-range" but seeing the good reviews and the price about right I jumped at the Remington. The result is just stunning, I had a kind Gouffa Marge Simpson, she disappeared in 30 minutes (mostly because I shave only) not need to spend 100 times in the same place, not too noisy, all accessories that make the 'comprehensive purchase. Even after 30 minutes the battery is almost full again. The storage box is a great idea, it changes those awful kits. By cons I'm just mowed my hair, for a particular cut I have not tried.
