Hi Guys
Ok, this is a weird topic, however, I am thinking about getting a electric shavers but I don't know which one works better, the one that has "one long" cutting edge or the one that has the three rotary cutters.
I hope I explained that right :eek:

I've never had a rotary electric give me a good shave, the foil electrics have always worked better. A blade still wors best, but for convenience I use a Braun electric.

I've tried on and off for years to go electric. Just can't seem to do it. Mach 3 Turbo beats them all.

That said, the Braun ones are the best electrics.

I love my electric rotary, get as close of a shave as a razor would give me, never going back to blades.

Edit: And yes, it is a Braun, the Syncro self-cleaning series.

Exactly what I was going to say. Braun foil shavers work the best.

I used both a rotary and a braun foil for some time... The thing with the rotary is to used it everyday (don't skip days!) and always keep the blades sharp. If I skipped a day or two, or let the blades get dull it would feel like it was ripping the hairs out by the roots instead of cutting them. The Braun was a little more forgiving.
