I had my head shaved at a barber shop recently and he used this particular shaver. It was very quiet and I hardly felt anything as you only need to lightly touch the skin. It didn't take very long and I was done. I ran my hand on my head and was very surprised how close this thing cuts. Very impressive, so I bought my own. I've used it quite few times now and there's no scratches/cuts, no ingrown hairs, no pimples or any other nasties. This shaver works very well. It is also the closest thing to a razor. It is also easy to clean/wash. I haven't found any faults with it yet as only had it a short time but I don't expect to find any. Very happy with it and would recommend it to anyone that doesn't want to use a razor.

Hair dresser industry gold standard, excellent for home use and very easy to use. The foils are incredibly delicate and thin, use with caution and almost no pressure. It requires you to have already shaved your head down as bald as possible, they don’t call it the “finale” for a joke. Do not use this with anything more than 1-2 day stubble or you’ll be there all day and have a terrible experience. Battery life is great for a full week’s charge, I use mine for 10-15 minutes every 2 days and it says on the box that I could get 90 mins, so should be able to go a full 2 weeks without the charger. Honestly the shaver picks up everything, it feels smooth as skin and you don’t need to worry about pimples or psoriasis or other skin conditions as the shaver glides over them without irritating. It was recommended instead of a straight razor and I completely agree, it’s easy to use and brilliant for the same finish. Would recommend anyone who wants a shaver for the bald-head look, this has one setting and that setting is bald as an egg. If you want that look, you can’t beat it, it’s been recommended by 3 different top barbers in 3 cities independently and I bought it after hearing that all the barbers only recommend this product and this product only over Phillips and other brands. Cons - the hair it picks up will be a powder because it cuts so fine, also any skin flakes will be picked up so you’ll need to clean the foils every 2-3 minutes for the maximum benefit, your sink will look dirty as hell and your hands will look like you’ve had charcoal over them. Expect to clean it after each morning’s use, using the included brush or you’ll have a terrible experience. I haven’t yet used oils or anything on it, had it for a month and love it to pieces.Read full review

As yet, the Wahl 5 Stat Finale Cordless Lithium Ion Super Close Hair Shaver 8164-412 Genuine has not been put to use. It was bought as a Christmas Present. However, we find that the Product is Good Value. and that it is well designed.

I bought the Wahl Finale late last year. Six months on and I’m still very pleased with my purchase. The shave continues to be very close. It has more power than a number of the other options, especially when used plugged in or freshly charged, so makes for a fairly quick shave of 10 or so minutes. Performs best for me when I shave every second day - my hair is thick and anymore than a couple of days of growth usually means more work or I have to use clippers to cut it back before I use the Finale. Only issue was the foil broke after about three months. This came as a surprise, I’m gentle with the shave and use it about three times a week. I ordered a new one - they’re super flimsy and, unsurprisingly, not covered by warranty - at the steep price of $50. Before it had even arrived, I used $2 superglue to fix the foil back in place and I’ve used it like that ever since. The spare foil is still in the packet. Overall a great tool - I’m at the point where when I do go to the barber I usually leave dissatisfied and wishing I’d done the job with the Finale myself.Read full review
