I can understand why duracell packaged the shaver with the batteries - it is the fastest way to use up a set of duracells that I have seen (apart from a digital camera).

...but I've found that the Braun 370 with its single smooth shaving foil causes me no skin irritation either during or after shaving. It has an effective on board trimming device for trimming down sideburns etc and an on board cleaning brush. The foil guard easily clicks off allowing you to clean the blade section below. At about a tenner this pocket sized yet still very effective battery powered shaver is tremendous value. You don't get a shave as ... ...pretty good.
