I have always bought Norelco Razors all my life. This one was a Christmas gift. Using it for the first time, and continued daily use since has been great. Easy to use, great shave. The closest, smoothest shave I have ever gotten from an electric razor. Being bald, I also use it to shave my head. I love the "Smart Clean" system, which saves the time and steps I use to use to keep my older Norelco razors clean and operating well.
I bought the shaver to be able to shave under the shower and save time while shaving wet. The shaver is capable of doing so. However, there are severe limitations stated in the manual about the amount of wetness the shaver can handle. other than that, it provides a good shave and seems to be well thought through.
