The Braun shaver feels good in the hand, not heavy and easy to grip. It shaves pretty close to the skin and does not pinch (on me), the trimmer works well and it is convenient. The fact that you can rinse the head and then use the hygienic cleaner afterwards, offers convenience and security of non cross infections. This is a shaver that I would recommend, the only caveat to this is that it is a little bit expensive, however, you pay for quality and reliability.
