Not perfect, but nothing is.
It's attractive, it works smoothly, it chomps through my relatively light stubble in a hurry, it holds a charge for more than a week at a time... basically it's just solid and works.<br /><br />The drawbacks:<br /><br />1) It doesn't fully and completely get all the wispy hairs on my neck down to skin level, but then I've never found an electric razor that did. You can't really see them, and if I want to look super extra spiffy some day, I have a fixed-blade mach 5 that takes them out in a minute and a half... And because that razor only gets used occasionally and on the very light / sparse hair that the Norelco leaves behind, the shave is very easy to do, friendly to my skin, and its blades are basically lasting forever.<br /><br />2) The charger plugs into its base and its carrying case (which is a nifty one, BTW), not the razor itself. So you can't use it while charging. In the event you ran completely out of power, this would be a problem... Though not an enormous one, as the battery lasts a long long time, has an indicator that tells you where it's at so you don't get surprised, and in the worst case scenario it charges really very fast (maybe an hour). Plus, I guess, in an absolute emergency I have the fixed-blade razor that isn't as convenient, but can do the job in a pinch.
