subject: Important Features Of Good Electric Shavers [print this page] If you're looking to buy an electric shaver you probably noticed that there are a lot of them on the market and it is difficult to determine what is good and what is bad. I've had that feeling myself, but it's just the way it is. It's not like a regular razor where the only real factor that counts is how sharp the blade is. But the added technology that is attached to electric shavers it can be hard to know what is good. Well, I'm going to help you out by showing you the features that count.
An important feature that you need is a foil. A foil when mentioned with a shaver is a metal netting system. It looks like a net, except made out of metal. The point of this net is to capture the hair on that you're shaving and pull it up. This way the blades are able to cleanly cut the hair. It's really the only way to get a close shave with an electric shaver without the risk of the blade being too close to your skin that it could cut you.
Another nice feature that you should want is a cleaning system. A lot of shavers have their own little cleaning system that is automatic. Typically they're part of the docking station that recharges the shaver. So all you have to do is place the electric razor on the charging dock and it will also clean it out completely. This makes life easy when you don't like to clean things.
