Solid Shaver
I used blades for 5 years, but I needed the convenience of an electric.  The 8040 does a solid job and has adequate power for a beard that grows in pretty fully on a daily basis.  I can't skip more than a day of shaving with it, though, or the long hairs just won't get cut.  It's comfortable enough to use every day, though, especially when used in the shower.  Great features for the money.
