‘Really easy to use and shaves perfectly’
Shoppers looking for a simple way to keep facial hair in check can pick up a compact Philips electric shaver designed to deliver a close shave with minimal fuss. The Philips PQ206 Electric Shaver is now up for grabs at £19 on Argos, with one user calling it ‘ideal for holidays or weekends away’.
This shaver features floating rotary heads that follow the curves of the face, helping to provide a comfortably close finish when tackling everyday beard growth. Battery-powered and completely cordless, it’s a handy option for travelling, with up to 60 minutes of use from two AA batteries.
Its self-sharpening blades are designed to stay sharp for up to two years, while the washable heads make cleaning the shaver straightforward after use. The shaver also comes with a protective cap and cleaning brush, making it easy to keep everything clean and protected between uses.

The Philips PQ206 Electric Shaver has been rated highly from over 1,000 reviews on Argos. One person said: “Very happy with this shaver. Good value, light and portable, ideal for holidays or weekends away.”
Another added: “I originally bought one of these many years ago to take on holiday, simply for convenience. I was so impressed that I decided to use it all the time and have been using them with rechargeable batteries. It lasts a long time before needing recharging. First class.”
A third shopper wrote: “Bought this for a friend in hospital. Really easy to use and shaves perfectly, plus the battery lasts a long time.”
Some people disagreed slightly, with one writing: “Great little shaver. Performs just as well as more expensive shavers and just as sharp. Very portable also. Going to get a second one to leave in the car for the times I’m in a rush. The only downside is that it can be sore on batteries so I’m going to get rechargeable ones.”
Another added: “It’s a good budget shaver that does the job, but needs regular cleaning after each shave.”
