Poree PS197UK Electric Shaver | Poree PS Range | Rechargeable via Cable | Protective Cap Included
A blade-free grooming option for tidy faces, sold sealed from a Nairobi CBD walk-in store.
Condition: New
Note: price and availability are subject to change without prior notice
The Poree PS197UK Electric Shaver is available at Mascom International for KSh 1,800, brand new and sealed, and in stock at our Nairobi CBD store. It belongs to the PS shaver range from Poree, a personal-care brand linked to China's Flyco group, and it sits at the same price as the Poree PS191UK. In the box you get the shaver, a protective cap for the cutting head and a charging cable. Visit Old Mutual Building on Kimathi Street to see the Poree PS197UK Electric Shaver in person, or ask us on WhatsApp for clear photos before you buy.
Built for office workers in Upper Hill and Westlands, job seekers preparing for interviews, and men who get razor bumps from blades, the Poree PS197UK Electric Shaver offers a quicker, drier routine than a cartridge razor. Blades and foam add up, and a rushed blade shave before a matatu ride often leaves nicks and irritation. An electric shaver cuts hair at the skin surface rather than scraping across it, so many men find it gentler day to day. The Poree PS197UK Electric Shaver recharges from its cable, keeps you tidy between barbershop visits, and its cap lets it ride in a gym bag.
Where most Nairobi electronics shops sell unbranded shavers with no model code and no paperwork, Mascom International stocks sealed Poree units and tells you plainly what is confirmed. We have not yet confirmed the head count, body design or colour of the Poree PS197UK Electric Shaver, so we invite you to check it at the counter or ask on WhatsApp before paying. Customers across Nairobi tell us they value seeing a shaver before they buy it. Pay on arrival anywhere in Kenya, or walk into our Kimathi Street store Monday through Saturday, 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM.
Common Questions About the Poree PS197UK Electric Shaver
How much is the Poree PS197UK Electric Shaver in Kenya?
The Poree PS197UK Electric Shaver costs KSh 1,800 at Mascom International in Nairobi, brand new and sealed. That price includes the shaver, a protective cap, a charging cable and Mascom's 6-month warranty against manufacturing defects. Delivery is pay-on-arrival, so you check the sealed box before you hand over cash or send M-Pesa. It matches the KSh 1,800 price of the Poree PS191UK and Poree PS160UK, sits KSh 400 above the PS151UK and PS181UK, and costs KSh 200 less than the PS163UK.
How does the Poree PS197UK compare with the PS191UK and PS160UK?
All three Poree shavers cost KSh 1,800 at Mascom International, but only two have confirmed designs so far. The PS191UK has twin rotary heads in a polished gunmetal body, a compact layout for travel. The PS160UK has three rotary heads in matte black, covering more of the face per pass. The Poree PS197UK Electric Shaver comes from the same PS range, but its head count and finish are still unconfirmed. Pick the PS191UK or PS160UK for a known layout today, or compare all three side by side in store.
How do I charge the Poree PS197UK Electric Shaver during KPLC power cuts?
The Poree PS197UK Electric Shaver recharges through the cable in the box, so top it up whenever power is steady. A habit of charging the night before means a KPLC outage in the morning will not stop your shave. Unplug the cable during storms and voltage surges, and consider the Amaya APS-10 Socket Protector at KSh 1,200 between the wall and any charger. We have not confirmed the connector or adapter type, so ask us on WhatsApp which wall adapter suits the cable before you buy.
Is the Poree PS197UK Electric Shaver good for razor bumps?
Many men prone to razor bumps prefer an electric shaver like the Poree PS197UK because it trims hair at the surface instead of below the skin line. That can mean fewer ingrown hairs than a close blade shave, though results vary from person to person. Shave in light, slow passes, avoid pressing hard, and clear hair from the head after each use. This is a grooming appliance, not a treatment. If bumps, redness or soreness keep coming back after a few weeks, see a doctor.
Who should buy the Poree PS197UK and who should skip it?
The Poree PS197UK Electric Shaver suits a man who wants a branded, sealed shaver for daily tidy-ups at KSh 1,800 and is happy to check its design in store first. It fits office workers, university students on a budget and anyone keeping a clean look between barbershop visits. Skip it if you need every detail confirmed before paying, because the Poree PS191UK and PS160UK have known head counts at the same price. Skip it too if you keep a long, full beard, where a dedicated beard trimmer is the better first tool.
Can the Poree PS197UK Electric Shaver handle a full beard?
The Poree PS197UK Electric Shaver is meant for stubble and short growth, not for cutting down a long beard in one go. Like most electric shavers, it cuts close but not quite as close as a fresh blade. If you have more than a week or two of growth, trim it short with a beard trimmer first, then finish with the shaver. Daily or every-other-day use gives the smoothest result, because shorter hair feeds into the cutters more easily and pulls less on the skin.
How can I check the Poree PS197UK design before buying?
You can see the Poree PS197UK Electric Shaver at Mascom International on the first floor of Old Mutual Building, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD. Because its head count, body design and colour are not yet confirmed on our side, we would rather you see it than rely on guesses. If you live in Mombasa, Kisumu or Eldoret, message +254 708 852 521 on WhatsApp and we will send photos of the sealed box and the shaver. Pay-on-arrival delivery also lets you inspect the package before paying.
Is the Poree PS197UK Electric Shaver good for travel?
The Poree PS197UK Electric Shaver travels well because it recharges from a cable and comes with a protective cap for the cutting head. The cap keeps the head clean and stops it snagging inside a backpack or suitcase on the bus upcountry. Charge it fully before a trip to Nakuru or the coast, and pack the cable. We have not confirmed its battery life, so frequent travellers who want a stated figure may prefer the Amaya AES-300 Portable Shaver at KSh 1,950, rated up to 40 days per charge on its box.
Technical Specifications
Core Function and Shaving Use
- Electric shaver from the Poree PS range — a branded alternative to cartridge razors for daily face shaving without foam, gel or replacement blades.
- Built for stubble and short growth — use it every day or two, before hair grows long enough to need a trimmer first.
- Head count and cutter layout not yet confirmed — ask on WhatsApp or see the unit in store before paying, rather than assuming twin or triple heads.
- Rechargeable through the included cable — no disposable batteries to buy, and a full charge the night before covers your morning shave.
- Dry shaving on clean, dry skin is the safe default — wet use is not confirmed, so keep the shaver away from running water and sinks.
Compatibility and Charging
- Charging cable included in the box — the connector and wall adapter type are not confirmed, so ask which adapter to pair with it.
- Model code PS197UK marks the UK-market version — part of the same code family as the PS191UK and PS160UK sold beside it.
- Charge from a stable wall socket — unplug during outages and voltage swings, and a surge protector adds a cheap layer of safety for the battery.
- Suits most skin and hair types for face shaving — men with tightly curled hair often get the best result from short, frequent sessions.
- Battery life and charge time are not stated — we leave figures out rather than guess, so charge fully before the first shave.
Build and Design
- Body design, colour and finish not yet confirmed — the PS range spans gunmetal, matte black and gold-tone models, so ask which finish is in stock.
- Protective cap covers the cutting head — keeps cutters clean and stops them knocking against keys, coins or pens in a bag.
- Brand new and sealed stock — the box reaches you unopened, so you are the first person to use the shaver.
- Clear the cutting head after each shave — tapping out loose hair keeps the cutters moving freely and reduces pulling on the skin.
- Store it dry with the cap on — steam and splashes in a small bathroom are best avoided, so keep it on a bedroom shelf or drawer.
Inclusions and Ownership
- Shaver unit — the main body with its cutting head, packed in the sealed Poree retail box.
- Protective cap — fits over the head for storage at home and for carrying in a backpack or toiletry bag.
- Charging cable — recharges the built-in battery between shaves, so the shaver is ready whenever you need it.
- 6-month Mascom warranty — covers manufacturing defects under normal use, with claims handled at our Nairobi CBD service desk.
- No trimmer comb, cleaning brush or travel pouch is listed — buy a beard trimmer separately if you keep longer facial hair.
