I am tired of shaving with a blade. The cuts, the bumps, ugh. I want to move to electric, or at least have the option to use electric once in a while.

I want to know the BEST electric razor that money can buy.

Step 1. Get into your car or a taxi.

Step 2. Drive to a Target or tell the taxi driver to take you to a Target store.

Step 3. Enter Target, and goto there electric shaver section.

Step 4. Read the back of the boxes of the electric razors and check the price, make the best choice you can regarding the product that fits your needs best,

Step 5. Buy product.

Step 6. Go home and use the product.

Thats basically it, its something I need to do to.

Get a Braun self-cleaning one. I love my Syncro (they have newer/possibly better models out now). Not as good as a razor, but the next best thing.

Although I use a Norelco during the week, I find it boring and tedious compared to a razor. Maybe its the risk of slashing my throat or the ritual and art of razors and the great smells of pre-shaves and soaps, but to me using an electric shaver isn't at all enjoyable. With a razor you have to be mindful. With a shaver you just need to be acceptably awake.

To answer your question, I think Consumer Reports recently compared electric shavers. You might research your question from that angle. I seem to recall Norelco and Braun being highly recommended. Then again, only four brands (Norelco, Braun, Panasonic, and Remington) dominate the market, so it's not as if there's much choice out there.
