Braun Series 3-390 CC

Advantages: The best electric shaver I have ever found
Disadvantages: It's quite expensive

...Braun Pulsonic Series 7 790 cc electric shaver with charge and renew So what?s the story? **************** I once heard a drill instructor once say to a recruit ?Have you shaved this morning, laddie?? The nervous recruit, with a gulp, squeaked ?Yes, Sergeant? ?Well tomorrow morning? came the riposte ?Stand a little closer to the razor!? And there, in a nutshell, is my problem with electric razors or shavers: Immediately after I use one I look like I have maybe had a bad shave and within 4 hours ? well before the end of the working day ?
