old reliable
I've been using Norelco's for 51 years now.<br />  The current 6843XL is 12 years old.  I had three others before it.  Not too flashy but it gets the job done.  The NiCad batteries are beginning to lose some of their oomph.  Small wonder, I never replaced them.  I have never had to replace the shaving heads  on any of the four units.  Like that little pink bunny with the bass drum they just keep on running and running and running.<br />My beard is pretty light my hair still turns blonde each summer.  When Detroit made cars that rusted out in three years in order to keep unit sales up, it was called  "planned obsolescence."<br />Apparently the Dutch never heard of it.  Although this unit was made in China, the three previous ones were all made in Holland.<br />Yes, when this one finally dies, I'll buy another Norelco.  Won't get the most expensive one either, just one that'll get 'er done.
