Wow!!! Great shave.
First I have to say that my previous experiences are minimal, I used to use razors then switch to electrical shaver under my skin doctor's advised. I was using a CruZer3 from Braun, I love its design, ergonomic and sturdy feeling but it took me very long time to shave and it left whiskers around my neck area. When I tried the Norelco 8140XL just could say whoao, I mean whoao, it took me no time to get a smooth close shave. The things I didn't like were the package, it is very hard and difficult to open, the razor seems very "Light" constructed when compare with the Braun (I think it is more a psychological issue, what really matters is how well it performances), but it amazed me how close and fast it shaved me, even the neck area.<br />Keep in mind that the shave won't be as close as a razor's, but it's pretty close and smooth (No irritation at all).<br />I decided to get this model because it uses the same shaving technology as the more expensive Norelco shavers but at a great price, the major differences are led displays, sensitive adjustments, among other non important features to me, overall it is a great deal.<br />(Finally to be fair, it is like comparing a Chevy to a Benz, both shavers are in different categories)
