Good, but not outstanding and it too high MSRP

Etc. The shaving performance on dry skin, without foam is rather bad, at least for a 2-day beard. Since I have other shavers which are much better. By Brown, I regret endless nachrasieren often and even then the result is not yet satisfactory. On the contrary: the shaving head is warming up and the skin becomes irritated. Strange. The result was the way after a test found that I have made over 4 periods a 2 days with this and two other razors - for each shaver there was a side of the face, the brown was always there. For the result, there are just 3 stars.

In wet conditions, using classic Nivea shaving the result is, however, very well: the skin is shaved smooth, there are no problems and it also remains to be correct only slightly. For full marks.

Well, I like the very flexible shaving head, the face and the head shape adapts well. You can reach all corners.

Now to the device itself:
The shaver looks more favorably by the glossy plastic.
The charge level of the battery is only displayed with 4 Led trabeculae.
The device can only be used in battery mode - during the shaver invites it can not be used.

The model comes 9040s without cleaning station or otherwise high-priced accessories that would justify such a high price. A storage box belongs to anyway.
In addition, I would expect for the price a real digital display and an optical system that is closer to the called EIA, since although the shaving performance is good but far from outstanding.

Due to the different shaving performance and the very high price: 3 stars from me.

Addendum: I just see that the device has a suggested retail price of 399, - and has at present, for 229 - will be sold. The marketing manager has probably worked before the mattress discounter, otherwise I can not explain this pricing policy. How to make a mark quickly broken. Quality should and must cost - but a unit price is to be set more than 40% below the MSRP ridiculous.
