The shaver provides a close shave, but not skin level in all areas of the face. Hard to get that close on the contours of the face. Easy enough to clean and use though.
I first learned about BaByliss shavers from my barber and had been toying with getting one for months and then my old Braun Series 8 Foil failed. So glad it did. The FX3 shaves closer than any electric foil shave I've ever had. While waiting for it to arrive had to resort to old-school shaving cream and a disposable razor and the FX3 is closer without any nicks. Truly love this shaver.
