Has anyone replaced the trimming blade? Remington customer service says to replace it from 6 month to 1 year. That's a very short life time to me.

They are talking about the shaver head here:http://shaveroutlet.com/remington-pg6250-replacement-body-groomer-shaver-head.html

and I responded that that part does not need changed, they are referring to the shaver head every 6-12 months

We haven't had to replace the blades, however when we did have a problem with the unit, we were able to get a replacement from the same vendor. Fast service. They answered our questions quickly via email and were most helpful. I am sure that they can either get parts or help you get a replacement. Be aware though that there wouldn't be any warranty so you would be better off, as we were, by getting the replacement. They can send an entire new unit for a special price, probably cheaper than a part would be.

I am nor sure about replacing it - but Hamilton Beach is a good company so possibly they would replace the blades. It actually has very strong & rather thick blades too. I doubt it would wear out as quickly as the earlier type blades. Thank you for your question - Linda

Get from remingtonrazor.com truthfully just slightly more expensive to buy a new single Remington razor from Remington or amazon and that way the sideburns trimmer is renewed

I have a Panasonic ES2207 that I guess is older than the ones that are being discussed. My razor was purchased July 29, 2009, and the charger no longer works. The razor didn't work that well anyway and now that I can't charge it, not at all. I had a Remington that lasted for at least 12 years and gave a better shave. Why is it the old products seem to work better than the new ones?

At one time they came with the replacement, don't know if they still do. Here's a link to eHow instructions. Read more : http://www.ehow.com/how_6448756_change-remington-foil-blades.htmlRead more : http://www.ehow.com/how_6448756_change-remington-foil-blades.html

I've had mine about a year now and I have not needed to replace anything. I guess you could wear the blade down if you grind it on concrete a lot. It is still running strong like the day I got it.

Same with me also, I would say when the blades don't cut clean and start to pull a bit is when I will replace mine. Hope this helps, -scott

The trimmer comes with the one Andis blade attached to it already. The blade consists of 2 plates. From my own past experience once the teeth chip or break then the blade is in-efficient, I will usually throw it away & replace it with a new blade right away.

I don't know if replacement parts are available. At the rate I'm using the razor, it could be a year or two before I will need to replace the foil and blades. I wouldn't be surprised if they cost about the same as a new razor, so it would be a tough call whether to buy the parts or a new razor.

I have used the same bland for one year. It is nearing the end of its useful life, and I think I will change it mid-summer. I only use it on 1 home. I have purchased spare blades online to have on hand for when I need them. It is a good unit that performs well. So far so good!

I bought my phillips norelco about a yr ago and it is working great.......I have been buying these for yrs and have NEVER REPLACED the blades on ANY of them......I guess after 3 yrs or so I just buy another BUT......I imagine that you should contact Phillips Norelco directly about replacement blades......

Yes there's a warranty. Blades don't loosen up. Blades don't last that long anyway, depending on what you're sawing. I have a long branch trimming blade that has lasted very well, but if you're cutting out drywall/nails etc you'll find you need to change blades often.

go to vitamix.com. If your machine is less than 7 years old, it's under warranty and they will replace the blade for free. They even pay shipping. If you don't have a 7 year automatic warranty, then you can check on the site to see what blade to get. I would have to check for you, and encourage you to do your own homework. I bought replacement blades for 6 years. Just found out I could have gotten them for free. LOL You can also call them. They are really nice.

My Norelco shaves really really well with new blades . . . .for about 2 months. I mean . . . . as good as a Gilette power 5-blade razor. But then the performance falls off pretty quickly. At 3 months, I'm debating on whether to spend another $40 on new blades or go back to the Gilette. It's my only disappointment in Norelco razors.

I just use it for almost a year. Want to buy a blade to be rapidly replaced.
