Review (3/5): Marlboro Man... Huh?!
Well, let me first state that nothing outdoes a normal hand razor for a true clean-cut shave. And so, if you're like me, you may be looking to save a few bucks, so you're considering an electric shaver. If that's the case, and you're willing to sacrifice having a clean-cut shave for a quick and easy shave, then this is an ideal alternative outside of the following setbacks:
1) You will still have very very small stubs leftover, which may make you look like the Marlboro Man with his 5 'O'clock shadow. Almost the same as shaving only in a downward motion with your hand razor.
2) Your sideburns will still need to be straightened by a hand razor, don't think you'll be maneuvering this thing in a straight line, to make a straight line.
3) People who have sensitive necks need to be careful not to spend too much time on their necks, or you'll go raw.
I've used this shaver for about a year. I've used it with the lotion stuff, without, with shaving cream, or with simply just water and all work great. Let me stress that this works fine for a daily shaver; for normal daily events. But, be sure to shave every morning or else the Marlboro Man will quickly turn into the Neanderthal man.
