User Reviews
I am sorry to say that I was fully disappointed in the Remington 5200 I received on line from Amazon. When it arrived, the head was broken. The person for whom it was a gift, fixed that but when he tried to use the razor, it would not work. He tried time and again to recharge the battery, but it would not take a charge. He tried to send it back, but the dealer said he would pay my friend $20 to keep it and forget the problem.
Needless to say, I am surprised that a Remington dealer would send such a product and then treat the issue as he did. -- Disappointed
Be careful when selecting this product via Amazon.
The first one I ordered would not hold its charge, at all. 10/10 for the no-cost return service from Amazon.
Second one was advertised as having bonus ear and nose trimmer, but according to the the supplier, that was a mistake on Amazon's part and arrived sans bonus package. To be fair, they have refunded the cash already, even though we;re still waiting for Fedex to pick the return up...
I got the same shaver for the same price (54USD) and free shipping elsewhere, including the freebie Ear/Nose trimmer.
The battery on this third attempt is still not stellar and the charge indicator is not to be relied upon hence the one star. (it is noisy like my 10 year old one) - I just can't be fussed to return it a third time. -- Dodgy Battery/Indicator - avoid!
all ok, no problems, recharge after about 12-14 shaves, screen last good if you're gentle with them, don't press too hard

I have owned this MS-5200 for about three years now and all features still work well.
Unfortunately this model has been discontinued by Remington, so I'm not sure what you get if you order one today in 2010.
I agree that the build quality does not feel like a Braun, but the very well thought out features make it the most convenient, easy shaving (as well as close shaving) electric razor I have ever owned. And, I've owned most all the brands over the past forty years.
The most useful feature for me; is the fact that the trimmer has a setting where it "floats" at the same height and along with, the twin foils. This allows one to trim and shave longer whiskers in one, single operation. What a time saver! The trimmer may also be locked in a high position above the foils for normal trimming, or locked down and disengaged. Having a trimmer which floats along with floating screens, is brilliant and it works so well I sincerely hope other models adopt this three position trimmer.
Another unique feature of this quality shaver is its third small pop-up foil. This 3/4" wide mini-shaver can be very handy in close areas, as between the top of a mustache and the base of your nose.
The cons have nothing to do with shaving, but include - a terrible screen guard which barely fits and is quite insecure. Also, the soft case is poorly designed and requires too much effort to fit the charger/cord and shaver inside so it may be snapped closed. A little more room please, Remington.
I highly recommend this model for it's close shave, its time saving convenience features and its durability. -- Most handy shaver I've ever owned & shaves close
I've owned this razor for over a year now. It replaced a Remington M2830 Intercept razor that I very happily used for several years. Can't say how disappointed I was, and still am, in the switch.
Shave time to get a decent shave is lengthy. It's noisy, but I can live with that if it didn't have so many other deficiencies. This shaver often misses whiskers in between my chin and neck -I find them when they get long enough to be called 'hairs'. Don't try to use this shaver on anything over a 2-day beard, unless you really like pain!
The pop-up trimmer isn't getting the job done either.
Pros: Battery life is acceptable.
Cons: Long shave time, misses whiskers, cannot handle long whiskers.
-- Dissapointed
