Thread: electric vs blades

between top of the line self cleaning shavers and top of the line manual razors like the flexball power razor or the pace 7 blade razor, which one of these two will ultimately prevail when it comes to closeness??? between these two which one will ultimate triumph as far as closeness goes and truly deliver the closest shave possible? what will most consumers in the world ultimately decide between these two strong contenders?

You be barking up the wrong tree. probably no one here uses an electric.

Speak for yourself! No pictures handy but I have a couple of straights marked Electric and/or magnetic!

I'm waiting for someone to show a razor marked "Atomic".

Back when I used cartridges and electric razors, I felt the electric gave a smoother shave...that didn't last as long as the cartridge gave. Cart results were less smooth but lasted longer.

With my top of the line Braun that had it's own automatic cleaning station, I had to shave twice a day to stay smooth.

Like thebigspendur said not many here used or still use electric shavers being a wet shaving (predominantly straight shaving) site. I had a Remington three head at one time. That's all the experience I have with them. Can't speak to those specific ones. They certainly do have a convenience aspect. Don't know that I'd want to straight shave while driving but I've done it with an electric.

That was low hanging fruit man.
*Wish I had thought of it first*

That would explain why it is worded like an infomercial!

It — a good choice of words, Bob — also goes by completely different seemingly real-life usernames on other forums asking the same, out-of-place bizarre questions.

Freaking bot Chod. Somebody boot his ass
