Already Braun razors user for many years (I'm on my 3rd in about 30 years ...) this model is perfect for me because I'm often traveling. It is light, and also load on the 110V and quickly. Hopefully it will be as durable as the other (2nd still runs on 220v but the battery is too low, after more than 15 years of daily use ...) Good shave but vibrates a bit on a hard beard, he must in this case move slower so that less hair cut at once. Shaving time in over a week which is convenient when is sometimes far from a power socket ... So I recommend it.
