" ...  For the price, this electric shaver is pretty good! ... The touch up edge helps clean up my sideburns and the shaver works pretty well. ... I do have to go over some parts of my skin but, that's required for the shaver for this price. ... I had a older Norelco shaver and it still works today but it doesn't shave as good as the new one. ... I highly recommend this shaver if you're in a tight budget.  ...  "
