Very Close
This shaver is great! I don't keep a beard, but my facial hair grows (as it tends to with most guys). I used to have an electric Braun foil shaver, but it never made the close shave like this one does. For those of you concerned about the extra cost of the gel packs, I wouldn't worry about that. The gel/shaving cream is mostly for people with very sensitive skin, and you could probably just use soap lather.<br /><br />Pros:<br /><br />-Very Close Shave. The best. I wouldn't trade this back for my old Braun Shaver.<br /><br />-Can be used in the shower.<br /><br />-Very easy to clean - just put it under running water.<br /><br />-Sleak design<br /><br />-Optional lotion dispenser, in case you have sensitive skin.<br /><br />-Price - I got mine refurbished for $40, and it works perfectly.<br /><br />Cons:<br /><br />-Charging base - when you go to charge the shaver, you just put it in the included charging base. There is no 'click' when you put the shaver in, so it's not all that secure. It only displays a charging light.<br /><br />-It doesn't display how much charge is left (ie: minutes left).<br /><br />In my opinion, the pros greatly outway the cons, and I HIGHLY recommend this shaver.
