ok but not great for me [SEP] i have very thick very coarse hair growth on my face shaving and i have never been friends i usually can only use a mach iii blade times times max before i have to throw it away else it turns my face into blood saladas such electric shavers have never done that good of a job on my face i always use an electric shaver first to get the big chunks of hair off so that the mach iii can go in for precision but in no way shape or form can i use an electric shaver alone and then go out into public this is especially true of the neck areafor years i have been using the norelco line of shavers most recently the as my choice the three circle blades in a triangle works best for me especially on that stubborn neck area it is not necessarily the closest shave but it does get the most hair removed overall and its usable in the showerenter this wahl shaver right out the gate i will say that on the parts it does shave properly flat open areas like sideburns it cuts super close it also charges very quickly behaves well in the shower and is easy to clean but that does not really set it apart since many shavers also do this i like the carry bag it comes withwhat i do not like is that it does really bad work on the curved parts of the face such as the aforementioned neck area in fact it is almost useless there i had to clean up with the norelco after using the wahl and i did several test runs the wahl performed a little bitter with shaving cream but then again so does the norelcomaybe if your face is not gnarly and coarse like mine this wahl is for you but i cannot really recommend it for guys like me when there are better cheaper options available
