Excellent shave
Like a previous reviewer, I have used Norelco rotary razors for almost 30 years, with an 850RX for the past 10+. I have used the 7240XL for a month now.  I bought this based on previous reviews and the incredible $32.99 Amazon sale price.<br /><br />Positives:<br />1. Shaving is very smooth & close. Shaves older beard without pulling.<br />2. Extremely quiet.<br />3. Easy to clean with tap water or brush. Stands upright on counter without need of a base.<br />4. Shape provides a good grip regardless of how it is held.<br /><br />Negatives:<br />1. I prefer the trimmer location off the end/top vs "out the side".<br />2. May not be the most attractive razor, but who cares?
