Lighter in weight than many mens shavers, this model makes an excellent choice for travel, especially since it can be operated on any voltage worldwide (an adapter plug may be required). Because its a corded model, the shaver plugs in with the detachable five-foot coil stretch cord and never needs charging. Designed for a close shave, the three-cut system features a foil-cutter-foil arrangement, with a three-position pop-up trimmer for sideburns, jaw line, and any longer hairs that need attention. While not ergonomically shaped, the shaver is streamlined and tapered, with grooves and ridges for a good grip. A two-sided cleaning brush, plastic head guard, shave stick for use before and after shaving, and a zippered, padded travel pouch are included. Grundig covers the shaver with a one-year warranty. --Ann Bieri |
