How good of a shave can you get with the attachment? How does it compare to a razor shave?

the balding attachment can give a totally smooth finish but you may have to go over it a couple of times. Razor may be a little faster, but I went through razors very fast. I use this product only for balding/shaving my head for the last 5 months and it appears to be working better over time. Probably me getting more accustomed to it. I have some trouble shaving the softer skin on my neck with the foil. Not sure why that is but does a great job on my head and the more solid portions of my face. Takes a number of passes for me on my lower neck.

I haven't used the Braun so I have no basis for comparison. I have used the Panasonic and it's a great razor for the price point. Sturdy construction, shaves well even in the shower and makes for a great travel razor.

This razor is a much better razor than the double or quintuple bladed kind both in terms of cost and quality of shave. this is especially true if you use a shaving brush and shaving soap, these will improve the glide and decrease irritation, this decrease in irritation will result in fewer problems for the skin. It must be noted that at first there is some learning curve and some small cuts are possible, but with attention and experience you will be able to avoid all these issues. I would never return to cartridge shaving, this is cheaper and better.

It does come with an attachment that you could but I wouldn't recommend it for That. I like to keep stubble on my face and that's what it works best for

I would rate it as excellent. It takes a bit more shaving time in the neck area, but then again that is a bigger area. For the price this razor is about as good as one costing 3 to 4 times as much. I would buy it again knowing what I do now.

I doubt you can buy an electric razor that gives that close of a shave...only razors will do that. This does give a decently close shave, though I recommend getting a Braun. The beard trimmers on the backside of these suck and pull hair.

I think i'd have to say yes. Of course it is bot going to be as good as a real razor shave but it would probably be the closest thing to it and without the irritating bumps leave behind. I even used this on my underarms and it worked really well.

It shaves very close, but it's meant for facial hair. Don't expect a clean shave like with a razor. That said it DOES shave very close. If I normally trim my beard on #2 with most shavers, I have to use setting #4. So on #1 it'll leave the finest stubble you can imagine. Maybe that's what you are looking for?

Works very well for facial hair, especially corse hair. Shaver is very powerful, but is very smooth and doesn't nip the skin.

I've had a mustache since the summer and find the trimmer very useful. The shaver itself is easy to use. Just be aware of the parts when you take it apart to clean.

Not at all. That's the appeal of the body shaver in my eyes. I also don't think it get as clean of a shave as a razor would. Just fyi

My experience is that it does not work like a razor. In fact, I didn't have much luck with it at all. It would work well for a very smooth surface like your face, but I was hoping to use it for my bikini line, and it didn't shave close enough to be used for rougher skin surfaces. Plus the shaving head is very small, only a fraction of the size of a razor. I used it for about two minutes and ended up throwing it away.

I bought them for my bf. He says it shaves pretty close but not as close as a razor. Hope this helps :)

I purchased the "shave ready" one - and it is great - been lasting a long time. I just strop it each time. It's a great starter razor.

I have found the razor to give a wonderfully close shave but be sure to flush blade when you are shaving and after finishing. Because the blades are so close they seem to retain hair that once hard and in place can make the next shave rough. If you do flush completely they last as long or longer than two blade razors and many times closer than any electric I have ever used!

I think its an awesome shaver . It shaves really well and I love using it. It would be hard to use any other kind now. it shaves very well and I use baby oil with it . clean cut is a great product

I shave in the shower and it works like a dream. Much cheaper than cartridges. Just take your time and buy Astra or Dorco blades.
