Braun Series 3-390cc Best investment I've made for this year

Braun Series 3-390cc Best investment I've made for this year.
I used to use electronic shavers a few years back, and I hated them coz they always left my face incredibly irritated and itchy (since I have sensitive skin) and doesn't shave quite as close as a razor, not to mention taking thrice longer than a razor to shave you.

So when my friend kept bugging me to buy his extra 390cc (he accidentally ordered more than he intended to buy), I was very hesitant. But he was persistent and I thought, for that kind of money I guess the shaver should be somewhat decent, at the very least it should be something I could use when I travel and don't have the luxury to use shaving cream and all that.

And now I'm so happy with it that I've been using it everyday, sometimes even twice a day, for the last 2 months. It gives you a pretty close shave, almost as close to my gilette mach 3. I guess a good comparison is that the closeness the braun shaves me, is about how my face feels 3 hrs after I've shaved with my mach 3. So not bad at all.

Plus now I can throw out all the hassle with having to use shaving cream and needing to shave in front of a sink with running water and all that crap. I shave in bed, while watching tv, even while typing one handed in the computer. AND I don't get the usual cuts and nicks I get from a razor shaver.

I love the self cleaner function of this. So basically I shave, then hang it in it's cradle to clean, charge, and dry. Whenever I travel I leave the cradle at home and just bring the shaver and power chord and simply clean it under running water.

The only draw back is that it takes twice as long to get a close shave with this as I used to with my mach 3. But then again, being able to dry shave for 10 mins while in bed is a lot better than having to take 5 mins to go to the bathroom, put shaving cream on, shave and then cleanup after.
