Almost a home run
I purchased this shaver after giving up on my Braun 7600 series razor.  It just didn't give me a close enough shave and I was tired of buying the cleaning system solution - which are a rip off in my opinion.  I had never  tried a Norelco product  before and was skeptical.  However it gives me the closest shave I have ever gotten from an electric.  I initially tried the middle setting and got a little irritation on my neck but otherwise fine.  It does take some getting used to the circular heads when shaving my upper lip but did cover the area better than the Braun - which left a  small ridge near my nose.  I like being able to just rinse the heads instead of an expensive and sticky cleaning system.  They could leave out all the fancy electronics and I didn't need a clock in the base.  I would have given 5 stars if it had been a little less expensive.
