Best Men's Electric Shaver

March 28, 2011
Electric shavers still can’t match the closeness of a traditional blade, but offer increased speed and comfort.

I have had 2 braun electric razors and they were both terrrible.I wasn't getting anything that resembled a resonanable close shave. Imagine having a razor
which you put into a cleaning solution that is flamable. Warnings are on the cleaning solution container. I would not recommend a braun razor to anyone. I had to discontinue
using the braun an return to using my old norelco.
