Summary: Excellent Shaver for Sensitive Skin
Comment: I recently purchased this razor after having sunk over $1000 dollars on the Norelco Cool Skin Shaver that required endless lotion packs. I have extremely sensitive skin and switched to this shaver overnight with no razor burn or bumps or the claw marks that often appeared with my Norelco Razor. The nicest thing about this shaver is not maintenance products. You only have to replace the blades and screen as recommended. I got a real deal at Target for $49.99 that included a Remington 10+1 Body grooming kit.
An additional note that I used baby powder on my skin prior to shaving. This is opposed to the shave stick that is advertised.

Summary: Loud but powerful
Comment: This is far better than my old $25 Braun set, but it is still not perfect. The Remington is loud and heavy, and you often have to use the long hair extension to get the job done, although you do get the job done to perfection every time without any help from a traditional blade.

Summary: Don't ASSUME anything... Don't Trust Amazon's Description
Comment: I have an older remington shaver that I liked, and wanted to get another one for an upcoming international trip. The Amazon product description says it is cord/cordless and accepts worldwide voltage. WRONG! The MS-5200 does, but the MS-5100 doesn't. The 4 differences are: 5100 won't operate as a corded shaver if the battery is low, 5100 only accepts 110 voltage, 5200 has an extra battery meter, and 5200 has 5 extra minutes of battery life in reserve. I thought it was my fault for not paying close enough attention, but after re-reading the amazon description, I'm sending it back.

Summary: shaver
Comment: With a couple of short-term exceptions, I have used Remington shavers all my life. This is one of the best, and I am very happy with it.

Summary: Gets the job done... loud.
Comment: I got this as a gift to replace a broken Remington MS3-2700. I would say that this MS-5100 does as good of a job as my old shaver, and so far has been more durable. The pop up Trimmer is conveniently located, and good for straightening sideburns.
A few things though: This shaver is very loud right out of the box, much louder than my MS3-2700. Loud, as in, if you live in an apartment, your neighbors will probably be able to hear when you are shaving.
The Pop-Up Mini Foil is mostly useless. When extended it is terribly flimsy and I feel that any pressure on my face will cause the foil to snap off. This flimsiness also causes the vibrations to double the loudness of the shaver. I never use the Mini Foil.
The replacement foils, as is with most electric shavers, are expensive. The manual suggests changing them every 6 months, but, with proper care and frequent rotation, I push that to 12-28 months.
Unless you have a weird shaped face and absolutely need it, I would recommend anyone considering this shaver to consider another model without the Mini Foil.
