Title: Braun 740s or Panasonic ES-LT33-S
Post by: dinosaur1 on November 30, 2014, 02:20:38 PM

Braun is now $130 at Costo vs $50 for the Panasonic at Best Buy.  Which one should I go with?  Both are wet/dry.

  I hope some of our electric shavers chime in.  BTW.... is there a reason why you don't use a safety razor or cartridge razor?  Electric razors for me do not get close compared to a manual razor.

I start off with an electric razor and then I use the Mach Turbo 3.

I received the Panasonic ES-LT33 for Christmas and love it. I actually get a shave that's as close as a blade, seriously. Didn't think it was possible. I switched to an electric because of problems with ingrown hairs and occasional nicks. This awesome shaver can be used in the shower. I use Head Slick from Headblade and go to town. It takes about ten minutes to shave my head and face, and I get four or five shaves from a single charge. I'm really happy with the Panasonic, and it's a LOT cheaper than the Braun 7 series.
