For 4 years I have been using a Panasonic ES8109 electric razor. It worked well for the most part but the auto cleaning system it has always gets clogged and my jaw and neck always burned a little bit after shaving. It was time again for new blades but I decided to research what is new and buy something different. I had never used a rotary shaver so this style became my focus.
I set a budget of around $100, compared this that and the other, and ended up buying this Norelco 1150BT with the click on bead trimmer. I let my beard grow in for 5 days so I could really see what this thing could do.
Wow...just.....wow. I cannot believe I have been suffering for so long with that other razor! This thing cut through hair and gave me a great, close shave with ZERO razor burn! i didn't even need to use any after shave gel to cool things down. It even got the hair off my neck without having to use the trimmer first. I couldn't be happier with the way it feels, the way it shaves, the way it charges, and the trimmer is better than a stand alone trimmer I use!
I have a goatee and like to keep it trimmed very tight. I have a beard trimmer with 5 settings that I have used for years to accomplish this but it never could get to that area right under my nose. I had to use a trimmer without any attachments to get that trimmed down. Well, this beard trimmer attachment actually gets to that area perfectly! It has 5 settings as well to let you adjust how closely it trims and you can also pop off the attachment to put a perfect line on your side burns. I can't believe how precise the trimmer is on this thing!
Due to all the problems I had with my previous self cleaning razor I won't be buying one with a system like that again. But cleaning this razor is simple and takes 2 minutes, if that. They provide a couple of nice little brushes to help with that and you can of course get things wet if you want.
I will admit that my second shave did get me a slight burn on an area I over did things, but the instructions tell you this will happen as your face and skin get used to the new blades, etc. By week number 2 I was shaving without any burn what so ever. Anyway, I highly recommend this razor. I can't tell you that opting for the 3D version and spending more money is worth the extra cash over this one but I'm sure it's also fantastic. (I did read somewhere that you can buy the 3D head and it will fit on this model...)

It is good, but disappointing (Update).
Update: The part where you press to shave, just breaks apparently. This occurred through normal use... And I don't even shave that often. I can still press the button to turn it on, but it hurts my thumb. This is overall very disappointing for a company like Norelco.I bought this over other models simply because people recommended it as a close shave. As a close shave it does an decent job, not amazing (although perhaps I'm just getting older). What is disappointing to me is the lack of convenience. This shaver is ONLY convenient if you NEVER plan on traveling with it. There is no case for this shaver, and the charger is fairly uncomfortable (it is a stand that charges). Maybe I'm old fashioned but I prefer a charger I can just roll up and travel with a bit more easily (like putting the charger in my pocket). Also, I prefer an indicator of how long I have before the battery dies. It abruptly tells you the battery low. Now I'm sitting in the office scared to start shaving because my bulky charger is at home and I don't want it to die and go to my meetings with only half of my face shaved.
