Which one is the best electric shaver?

Question

I am planning to buy an electric shaver either from Philips (rotary) or Braun (foil). I have no info over both of their performances. Is the Philips arcitec system performs better than the Braun pulsonic while shaving thick haired skin? What do you think would be the best for a close-shave?

One more thing: have any of you have any bad experiences with the noise of the shaver at all?

Answer 1

Braun works better than philips. All my friends use the same. An international product to rely on.

Answer 2

Don't bother with either .... get a good quality wet shave system.

Answer 3

I wouldnt use an electric system at all if you have thick hairs. I used a phillips type and the blades went blunt rather quickly, cost the earth to replace and irritates my skin when i use it. Old fashioned blades do the job better.
