Third in this guide, the Philips SatinShave Essential is the cheapest thing on the list at £17.99 — a single-foil, battery-powered shaver for wet and dry use, rated 4.4 out of 5 from 17,929 customer reviews and ranked 7th in Women's Electric Shavers. It is the entry here whose spec table contradicts the reviews outright, rather than simply rounding a number up.

The battery row says 'Rechargeable'. The longest-serving reviewer we quote describes a 26-year-old unit that takes two ordinary batteries with no charging at all, and another, three years in, writes that the batteries 'last well'. The same table lists Special Features as 'Cordless, corded, corded cordless, Wireless, Waterproof, Self cleaning' — three cord options in one row, for a shaver whose Power Source is given as Battery Powered. Its rating breakdown is also the odd one out in this guide: the five rows add up to exactly 100, which reads as percentages rather than the 17,929 reviews quoted beside them. Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing, not from testing by us.
