I have owned a number of Norelco rotary shavers over a long time period. As I have aged, I my beard has become softer and I was having problems with some of the light wispy hairs not being cut by my old shaver. I would have to use the trimmer side to get these hairs. That is not the case with the 9300. The new head and cutter design does a fantastic job giving my a complete and very close shave.
The triple head design of this razor provides a quick and smooth shave. The heads pop off easily for cleaning, and it conveniently cleans with hot water. The SmartClean System is also a stand-up charger. However, the heads stay wet after finishing the dry mode and now the cleaning mode continues on for hours and hours unless I unplug it.
Pros: smooth and comfortable shave, cleans with hot water
Cons: smartclean system wet cleans w/o disengaging

Great except for cleaning system

I received the 9300 series with cleaning system for a Christmas present after owning nothing but Norelco my whole life. I have to shave everyday and I have not owned a better electric razor. I have sensitive skin on my neckline and have always had razor burn from all my other razors except this one.
The cleaning system has yet to impress me due to the fact that every time I use it to clean my razor it does not go through the same cleaning processes every time. The manual says it should take about 10 minutes and I have had it do cycles of less than five minutes to over 15 and to the point I had to actually unplug it. The manual does NOT contain any troubleshooting techniques or actions. I am not impressed at all with the cleaning system.
Pros: close shave, no razor burn
Cons: cleaning system, did i mention cleaning system
Reduced shaving time from my precious electric shaver. My industrial stubble is now as smooth as a baby's bottom. Has made shaving a labor of love rather than a chore!
