Great shave -- disappointing "goo"
I'm getting older and have lost tolerance for the nicks and bleeding I get from a straight razor.  I pulled out my 30 year old Remington electric and was surprised that, with a little pre-shave lotion, it wasn't that bad. I figured razor technology had to have improved in 30 years, so I did the research and bought the Norelco 7735X.  I've had it for a week and couldn't be happier.  The "goo" that comes with it certainly helps (I prefer the gel to the lotion), but I found I get an even closer shave using just regular off the shelf gel-type "clensing wash" that I use to wash my face with. I'm glad, because the little packets that come with the razor are expensive considering how quickly they run out. The shave is every bit as close as the top of the line triple blade straight razor I used to use.  I have charged the razor once since I bought it, unplugged the charger, and it has been going strong for a week.  I love that I can just wash it out with hot water when I'm done. I highly recommend it.
