Never used one that came that close to a real razor (owned Remingtons, Brauns Panasonics and Norelcos over the years). But nothing beats them when you're running late in the morning or need a quick touch up shave.

They don't give a close shave but tends to be convenient for daily upkeep. I use a Panasonic that works fairly well.

 

[Kelemvor]

I've got a Norelco from 13+ years ago. No idea what people talk about not getting a close shave. I have no stubble left and a perfectly smooth face when I get done shaving. I think lots of people are just too incompetent to figure out how to use an electric shaver...

I have a Braun Syncro. It offers a very good shave, but nothing like the Mach 3 from Gillette. I use the electric when I'm in a rush and don't have the time really to wet shave with a regular razor.

Braun Syncro all the way, why even use a regular shaver anymore? It's like reverting to analog from digital.

Is it actually physically possible to get as close a shave using an electric? I thought the closest possible would have to be actually scrapping a razor across your face as opposed to moving blades behind thin cages.

If all you grow is peach fuzz, then you don't need a closer shave.

electric= convenience. but having metal between face and blade is gonna always suck. its just how it is.

Just missed a guy on ebay who had a pack of 16 for $22 shipped.... I'm gonna wait out till another seller has the same quantity....

 

[EULA]

I use both the Mach III as well as an electric razor.

Both provide me with an extremely smooth shave, but I prefer the Mach III for detailed workings, and the electric razor for a quick shave, or trim.

 

[Noema]

Electric razor all the way. :thumbsup:

My skin is very sensitive. If I use a regular razor I get a rash all over, specially in the moustache area.

Its a 16 pack but I think its still that same price.

Which reminds me, I'm out of blades, looks like I'll be making a pit stop by Sam's on the way home now.
