Not as close as a blade, but good
I have been using this shaver for about three months and I think it is a good product overall.<br /><br />Forget what Norelco says. I am a former Gillette MACH 3 user and this shaver will not shave as close as it the blade did. If you cannot stand anything less than a blade, this product is not for you.<br /><br />On other hand, one will face fewer cuts when compared to the old fashioned way, which is the actual reason why I kept it. In the long run, the skin gets a bit smoother also.<br /><br />I have tried using it with shaving creams other than those compatible with the unit, with no luck. My advice is to stick to the Norelco HQ170 Cool Skin Nivea for Men Lotion Replacement Cartridge. You will see far superior results.<br /><br />If you want to save some time every morning, avoid cuts, and have a shaver that works well in the shower, this product is an excellent option.
