Electric Razor

So my 15 year old Norelco finally died. Plan is to go buy another since well it worked that long. Figured I would see if there is anything else I should be looking at. I tend to like the 3 small rotating blades rather than the foil style.

LOL,
I thought you were talking about this.

Nope, but that would have been a better topic to discus.

Last year I got a cordless Norelco after my 20+ year old corded Norelco started acting up. Model 2500. It says 45 minute run time with less than 1 hour charge time. I’d say those numbers are accurate. The trimmer isn’t as good as the corded one which I kept just for that.
Dang eyebrows and ears!!

I would like to know, 3 blades vs foil style that now tends to be 3-4 foils plus a clipper type thing, but which gives the closer shave?

What we need is John to do half his face with a new rotating shaver and half with a good foil model for 2 weeks, posting daily photo comparisons.

This is IDO, we need to make this as complicated as possible.

Whatever you get now aint lasting 15 years thats for sure

Then he needs to figure out how to get them into Canada.

I replaced my 15 year old Norleco about a year ago with a 9000 series Norleco. Great close shave, long battery life and I seldom ever use a straight razor any more. A little more spendy but well worth it to me.

Ok thanks. A little more than I was thinking of spending but if you say it works good, I will check it out.

And stay away from battery operated, get a V8 gas, no turbo.

1 ton 4×4 with a long box. None of that pussy 5’8″ crap.

For electrics I never found anything better than a Norelco Triple Header. About 12 years ago I switched to 3 bladed disposables. I also have a straight razor, brush, soap and strop that I like to use once in a while when I feel like taking my time.
