Way better than expected

Hello,
I received this product from Philips, free of charge, and was asked to provide my honest opinion after about ten days or so of using it.
It's a sturdy machine and I had absolutely no problems with it. The shave is comfortable and close, much more so than other electric razors. I should note that it's not as close as a very diligent manual shave, but I assume that manual labor isn't what you're looking for if you're reading this.
Back to the Norelco--it is easy to hold, perfect size. Shave is close and didn't leave me with any goose bumps (I'm Caucasian). I didn't have to press very hard at all on my skin and wasn't left with a tingly feeling. Both of these were actually very surprising and felt way better than my old razor. I honestly didn't anticipate that razors had improved this much.
Washing it was a breeze--just placed under the running water and voila! No complaints about the noise--it's way softer than my older razor. I didn't use the touch up trimmer, but it's a nice addition for those seeking that kind of sophisticated look.
Overall, this razor did far, far better than I expected for an electric razor.
I have used a Norelco Shaver since I started to shave as a teen. I have been pleased with every one. They were replaced when they could no longer hold a decent charge. The replacement shavers were just a little bit more than replacement heads.
