Review (5/5): Beardtastic
I used mine for the first time this morning on a good four to five days' worth of tough beard with excellent results. After reading some other reviews of the 8894XL, I used Williams Lectric Shave balm prior to shaving. I don't know if that helped me get the ridiculously clean shave I got, but I'm sure it couldn't have hurt. What's more, I usually nick myself several times when I wet shave and didn't cut myself once with my Norelco. I've had a couple of different electric razors before, but this is, without a doubt, the best.
