If you haven't used an electric shaver in years, this is a great choice for you. This is my second purchase. My previous shaver stopped charging after 4 years of use. So I bought another one.
This shaver provides consistent close, comfortable shaves. However, when washing the clippings from the open head, water drains through the shaver body and some exits through the holes used to plug the charger in. This seems likely to possibly short out the shaver on/off switch if the user fails to ensure the shaver charging port is completely dry prior to charging.
Little noisy and don’t shave close maybe it needs more time to adjust to my skin.l have owned these shavers for many years and have 2 more that I alternate with.
I've been using electric razors (ie: Norelco) for close to 45 years and I've never had as good a shave as I have with the 3100. It has a nice feel in my hand and a wonderfully close shave with little to no burn.
