Better than expected
I have very sensitive skin that makes it very difficult for me to use an electric shaver regularly. I cannot shave every day even if I use a good blade and take a nice shower. That being said, I use this electric shaver occasionally (like while I am on a trip and such). Although it is battery operated, I found the shaver powerful enough. It does irritate my skin a bit, but not more than I expected. And the shave is not as smooth as you would get using a good blade, but very close. It is far better than the other Philips I used long time ago. What I did not like is the charger base. I am sorry to say this Philips guys, but that thing is a joke.
