While I have absolutely no doubts that they are great shavers, I'm glad that I think they look cheap and tacky. To me, they come off as almost toy-like in appearance. To me, they are just not worth the price tag, no matter how great the shave is. Obviously that is just my opinion and there are many out there who would be quick to disagree with me. It's all personal preference. If you like the way something looks and it's a reputable manufacturer and you're willing to pay the price for it...get it!
