While I haven't used this type of razor in decades, I was intrigued by the claims that it was capable of shaving sensitive areas. I can attest without qualification that it lives up to that claim. As a manscaper, I have been forced to use bladed shavers for the purpose, as the rotary type shaver I'm used to, for my face, is not suitable down there as it has a tendency to pull and cut delicate skin. Not fun. But this foil razor not only left a very smooth surface and cut very closely, there was never any discomfort, pinching, or cutting.As for face and neck shaving I noticed that if the growth was several days in length the shaver needed to be dragged over the area several times at varying angles of approach to get all the hairs in it's path. So the shave time is slightly longer than using a rotary shaver that has longer curved openings that allows it to shave more and longer hair easier. But with light stubble the foil shaver wins hands down for it's resulting smoothness of skin. There is less roughness to the touch according to my wife.This shaver is impressive. It is exceptionally well built and presented in durable, visually striking packaging that supports that impression. Every thing is included from a head cleaning brush to a carrying bag to keep it all contained for your luggage. The charging cable is good in length and the charge time is quite fast. The first shave, starting from a full charge right out of the box, including the face, neck and private parts lasted…

I've had the opportunity to try out several foil shavers over the years, with my favorite being a high-end unit from Panasonic. That shaver costs about $500 though, so I will be comparing this shaver to other foil shavers I've used that are similar in construction and price.One more bit of context: I shave my head and grow my beard, so in addition to my scalp, I shave my neck, throat, and cheeks. For the most thorough shave, I use my single edge Thorn razor with shave soap. For a faster but less thorough shave, I use electric shavers. My hair is fairly thick as well, and I only shave once, sometimes twice a week, so I give electric shavers a tough workout.Among other double headed foil shavers, this shaver performs well, has good battery life, and is surprisingly heavy. Read on to learn more.It's been my personal experience that single headed foil shavers give me a slightly better shave, at the cost of more skin irritation (I will say from experience also that if you let your skin get accustomed to an electric shaver, the irritation will go away in time; I only occasionally use electric shavers). Whereas double headed foil shavers like this one tend to give me a slightly patchy shave, but with less irritation.Again, among other double headed foil shavers, this one performs well. Where some double headed foil shavers leave me with patches of uncut or lightly trimmed stubble, this one only skipped a few hairs. I only got a little redness on one side of my throat from…
