Kaveh, an electric shaver just will not work for me. I had a Braun, which was a birthday gift from a very good friend of mine, and I used it once, and it gave me a terrible irritation, and hardly shaved off any stubble. I know other guys who use them with success, but I just cannot. I'm strictly a wetshaver!

Works great for me...I love my four : pass DE shave, but there are areas I just : can't get clean without pressure and tricky : maneuvering. The electric does great for : that. : : I have the Braun mentioned as well (the 8995 : or whatever - the one with the cleaning : base). It does a respectable job with a : daily shave, and has a few adjustable : aspects - fixed or pivoting head, sideburn : trimmer, etc. The cleaning/charging base is : neat, but it takes $10 cleaning carts that : last about a month or two depending on how : often you clean the head. : : You'll find that the differences with most : models of foil cutters tend to be in the : foil itself. The Braun I use has openings : in the foil shaped like little octagons. : Each edge is pretty much like a blade : surface, and the block cuts the hair by : scissoring it off against these surfaces. : What this means is that it can cut in almost : any direction smoothly. The block also : floats, so you can press harder against your : face, getting a closer shave. : : :
