I am in the market for a good electric razor, please give me some recommendations you might have, specially if you have pretty sensitive skin.


Thanks,

I have a norelco i think the model numbers are 6775XL or something like that. I leave it in my car and its for emergency shaving, Works well except on my neck, kinda get some burn, but when I used it more often my skin got used to it.
 
I've been using Norelcos for years. They will bother your skin some for the first few weeks, after that all is well.
 
I second the Panasonic Linear models. The best part of this razor is that it is wet/dry, so getting it wet in the shower is no problem.

As for razor irritation, I haven't found one yet that won't bother your skin for a little bit until you get used to it, so it seems a non-issue to me.

I have this one. Works great unless you have really thick hair.
The self cleaner works great, but the refills can get expensive. There's a review on amazon.com that tells how to get around that though. 🙂
 
I've used both Norelco (disc blade) and braun (flat style) and for me the norelco's gave a closer shave. The only thing is the blades get gummed up pretty quick and are hard to clean (a shop vac w/ a small attachment works well). I've never used the high-end models so I can't say they work any better/worse, my gut feeling is it's just marketing hype.

The only feature I wanted was corded/cordless operation w/o having to wait for it to charge a bit to use the cord. Some don't work on A/C power directly, they need to charge first.
