Best on the market by far. I consider it approximate 90% of a blade shave. When using foam, it come too close of my skin near the throat and cause irritation. Did it 3 out of 3 tries. When you manage to get above 65% in pressure, that is when you approximate 90% of a blade shave.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very sharp Cutting, but, much heavier than previous models. First time i have ever had a "pinch skin" bruise. Will go back to older models..too much bulk when traveling.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm 77 years old and have worked with many user guides. The one that came with this shaver is the worst that I have ever seen.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the best electric shaver ever…hands down! This shaver will give you a closer shave day after day. The method to clean the shaver after each shave is super easy and if you use the quick cleaner method once a week it will last you for 3 months. The quick clean method is so much better than Braun which is bad and is very expensive.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Close shave for an electric! Bezel is rather large making it difficult to shave close to my nose. Easy to clean.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Works better than any other electric shaver I have owned in the past. Easy to clean and maintain. Nice and smooth shave, ditch the old school metal razor.
