This shaver does an excellent job and is much faster than a rotary razor. It holds a charge for over one week too! Much better than Norelcos and Remingtons that I have used. The only drawback is that it is a bit noisy.

After years of ingrown hairs, razor burn, bumps, cuts, not being able to shave daily due to sensitive skin, and spending a fortune on blades that could only be used two or three times before going dull, and the overall agony of shaving that comes with having being sired by a Middle Easterner, I decided it was time to give electric a serious try. I spent a few weeks checking out the Panasonics, Norelcos, and Brauns that run from $60-$200 and everywhere in between, and also seem to be marketed to guys that get a bit of shadow on their chins toward the end of the day rather than a half-length beard, a light bulb appeared over my head. A friend of mine is a barber, I'll just ask him. Without hesitation, he told me about Andis. I knew there had to be a secret weapon employed by professionals, and this is it. I had been dissatisfied with electrics before as I am very thickly-bearded, but this thing does the job. I'm still shocked at the price, but that's what you get with such a no-frills product. I've been using it almost daily for a month and a half now and its effectiveness surprises me every time. I've read about the volume of this shaver in other reviews and I'd be remiss without mentioning that yes, it does indeed sound like a wood chipper. It works though. It works very well. The only bell and/or whistle I would like on it would be an indicator of when to let the battery run out and recharge it instead of listening to it struggle to get the last bits on my chin before it dies.

Gets close enough, but nothing works better than a razor blade. What I like though is the charge time last for weeks. I shave in the morning and leave it in my car to use whenever that 5 o'clock shadow appears. Also, I don't get razor bumps using this shaver which is something I got a lot when using a razor blade.
