Honest-est review ever,…

I have been skeptical with electric razors as I really wanted the close shave feeling with a fresh blade every day. I have tried many different shavers - brand and price, nothing has satisfied me enough, and I always fall back to the non environmental friendly razors.
After I got this Philips 9000, and for the first time ever, I got the same clean shaven feeling, and the closest ever shave. I used it on a 2 day beard.
I tried to use multiple methods of shaving, and here are the findings.
1. Used with a low foaming shaving gel - Best and closest shave, zero irritation on the skin
2. Used with normal shaving foam - Ok not too bad, but might miss certain area due to low visibility, and the foam tends to clog the shaving head a little
3. Used right after shower (wet face) - A bit of friction when gliding over the jawline, need to move slower
4. Used after towel dry the face - Not recommended. The damp skin causes tugging of the shaver. Will not try this again.
5. Used on a totally dry face - Better than 3 and 4, and with an aftershave, skin feels smooth and clean too.
I did not use the cleaning cartridge, as I felt its quite high maintenance. I might use it after 6 months, as currently - it feels sufficient just rinsing the blades off under running tap. The blade only need replacement after 2 years - amazing!
Best feature I love about this shaver is the pressure sensor - which lights up different colour when we apply too much or too little pressure. I actually learnt that we don’t have to press on the shaver too hard into the skin to get the best result. This shaver is that good, that we just need to place it right on the skin, and let the rotating blade do its work.
Summary : It is the best shaver you can buy right now. No doubts about it.
