Review: Philips Arcitec RQ 1095 Electric Rotary Shaver
Page 2

We were going to have a great big shaver group test, but like a party where you invite loads of people but only a few turn up, just Philips and Braun (we'll be reviewing soon) could be bothered to send any review kit. So we are going to just do individual reviews instead. 

The Arcitec shaver is probably the most expensive shaver on the high street, unless there is a diamond-encrusted model we don't know about. We saw one for sale at John Lewis for around £250, but Amazon is selling one for about £162.99.

The shaving end is composed of three independent heads, supposedly to get to all the hairs on your face and neck. Each head has three shaving tracks, which the manufacturer claims offers 50 per cent more shaving surface than single track rotary shavers. Each head pivots to to keep maximum contact with the skin. There are also dual blades in each head as well.
