Perfect replacement

This works on my Speed XL. The shaver is old and still going. Shave heads replacement I get, but never believed the frame would start allowing the shave head base to fall out. Hard to complain, but these are hard to find.It is hard to describe the failure that prompted this purchase. I haven't used it but once, and it works, so hopefully it will stay good.

Metal clip doesn't stay in razor. Too short.

This was a great replacement for my original head, the hinge of which had broken after several years of use. Although the original was metal, and this one is plastic, it should work just fine -- at least thus far.

The new head fit perfect, but the tabs holding the heads in place are too flimsy to last very long. I had one of the 3 tabs break completely off and another one cracked within 5 uses of the shaver. Luckily, I was able to fix it by applying professional strength super glue for plastics to all 3 tabs. Now the shaver works perfectly and I haven't had any problems since! This work be a better product if stronger plastic was used, and a SUPER product if the item was made of metal!

Worked Great...Just like it was advertised!!!

The original shaver piece broke. Super glue wasn't going to work. I was happy to find this part. It took forever to be delivered; it must have come via show boat from China, literally. The latch can come undone easily. But, I can deal with that, and my vintage shaver is still useful. $25 seems expensive, but I paid it as a new shaver would have been at least $80.
