Electric Shaver Ratings and Reviews - Features Or Price?

Choosing an electric shaver can be a daunting task. There are so many electric shaver reviews and so many different choices out there. There's not one electric shaver that is clearly better than all the others because there are so many things to take into consideration. Some things that people focus the most on are price and features. If we were to first look at features, it's worth reviewing some of the top shavers from Braun, Panasonic, and Philips Norelco.

If you want a complete shaving system, each of these shavers is worth purchasing. Panasonic specializes in providing wet and dry shavers. This is ideal for people who want to shave in the shower. This particular model has a very powerful motor and is great for shaving thick beards. The blades are very sharp which helps produce a very close shave.

The Pulsonic Series 7 Shaver from Braun has been labeled by many as the best electric shaver. It is very high tech and has received excellent reviews. It creates micro-vibrations along with blade technology that helps lift hairs off your face and cuts them without tugging or pulling. With one click of a switch you can clean your shaver and have it ready for next time.

Finally, the Norelco Arcitec is one of the most high tech shavers available. It looks awesome, and most importantly it gives a good close shave. Norelco specialize in rotary shavers so if you have a preference for rotary shavers this is one of the most high tech ones. Rotary shavers are known for being able to hug your jaw line. If price isn't a factor, one of these shavers is highly recommended.

OK, now let's look at price. If you have a limited budget for an electric razor, than the three shavers mentioned above might be too expensive for you. They clearly win in the features department, but if price is a big factor, they might not be the best shaver for you. If we want to tackle value for money, we'll review the shaver that has received excellent reviews and is the least expensive. It becomes obvious now that there's no right or wrong way to pick the best electric shaver. Everyone's preferences will come into play.

One razor that has received so many good reviews is the PocketGo P 70 from Braun. It cost around 20 dollars and runs off two double A batteries. It doesn't have a cleaning system or special features, but according to many reviews it does its job very well. It makes a great gift, and perfect traveling shaver. You can use it anywhere; in the car, at work, or at home. This is also recommended for people who have never used an electric shaver before. This product can help you make the transition from disposable razors to electric razors.

The Best Electric Razor - Choosing Features Or Price

With so many different products, and so many different preferences, it can be hard to pick the best electric razor. Someone somewhere is going to disagree. There just isn't a clear winner. The reason it's hard to label an electric razor as being the best, is because there are many factors that we need to consider. These include, but are not limited to features and price.

First, let's look at features. There are three electric shavers that are worth mentioning here:

Braun Series 7- 790cc Pulsonic Shaver
Panasonic ES8249K Arc IV Nano Vortex
Philips Norelco arcitec 1090 Men's Shaving System

Each of these three razors are worthy of the top spot in terms of shaver features. The Braun Pulsonic Shaver is very high tech. It produces micro-vibrations that help lift hairs off your face for easy cutting. The blade technology reduces any tugging or pulling on the hairs, and with one switch of the button you can get your shaver cleaned and ready for next time. Panasonic shavers are great if you want to have a wet shave with an electric razor. This is one feature that differentiates this brand from the others. If shaving in the shower is something you want to consider, this shave is for you. This razor also packs a very powerful motor, along with extremely sharp blades. The angle on the blades is one of the smallest on the market, making shaving a thick beard relatively easy.

The Norelco Arcitec has one of the most high tech designs. Not only does it look really cool, it gives a very close shave. If you like rotary shavers, than a Philips Norelco is the brand you want. This shaver has a very unique design. The shaver is known for being able to hug the contours of your face, producing a very close shave. Also, Norelco shavers come with a 60 day back guarantee which is a nice bonus.

If you want a complete shaving system and features are more important to you than price, one of these shavers should do the trick.

Secondly, let's tackle price. In terms of price, we'll consider value for money. In order to pick the best shaver based on value for money, let's pick the cheapest shaver with the most positive consumer reviews... As you can see, there is definitely not an exact science in picking the best electric razor. At least not in how we're doing things here.

So, the razor with lots of positive consumer reviews, and with a very low price tag is the Braun PocketGo P-70 Men's Shaver. It has produced many happy customers, and currently retails for 20$. Based on value for money, this shaver is certainly one of the top candidates. It is really designed as a traveling razor. It runs of double A batteries which means you can take it anywhere. People use it when they travel, at the office, or in the car. It's very handy and gives a relatively close shave considering the price tag. It might not suit you for everyday shaving, but if you want to keep clean while on the go, it's highly recommended.

Popular Brands of Portable Spin Dryers and Its Key Features

Spin dryers is a laundry essential which is being primarily used to dry clothes and other stuff which has gone through the washer. Some brand boasts to dry average weight clothing materials in 2 to 3 minutes by making 3200 revolutions per minute. Below are quick reviews of the more popular brands.

Wonder Wash Spin Dryer

The Laundry Alternative, the maker of Wonder wash, presented to the world its newest product Wonder Wash Spin Dryer. The company boasts that it is capable of making 3200rpm to help dry clothes in jus two to three minutes as compared to conventional dryer which can do the same job in an average of 30 minutes. This product would work best in tandem with another revolutionary product from The Laundry Alternative, Wonder Wash Mini Portable Washing Machine. This can also be used as individual dryer or used in tandem with tumble dryer. Should it be used with tumble dryer, it cuts drying time by 30 minutes or more which would mean reduced energy consumption and longer dryer lifespan.

It is recommended for those living in apartment and student dorms since space is the primary consideration in patronizing household appliances. It is also lightweight at 22 pounds and connects to any 110V outlet. The company also boasts it is more gentle on clothes which means usability of the clothes are longer than those which are dried using conventional dryers. This one is priced less than conventional dryers too so more and more people can afford to have this handy cleaning essential.

Mini Countertop Spin Dryer

Mini Countertop Spin Dryer is lightweight for it only weighs 11 lbs yet it can do its job in 2-3 minutes by doing 1600rpm spin speed compared to conventional dryers which does similar job in 30 minutes. It is handy because it only measures 13.5" x 13.5" x 15" which makes it easy to manage and store. This is highly recommended for students and for those who are living in small apartments and mobile homes. Load capacity is 2.2 lbs (at about 1-2 jeans per load) so this product is not fit for large families.

It is also very quiet and works best with Wonder wash 110V. This product also uses a mere 82 W so another great feature of this product is also being energy efficient. Being a spin dryer, Mini Countertop spin dryer is a spin dryer and not a regular tumble dryer. It extracts more water from the clothes than regular washing machine spin cycle clothes come out slightly damp.

Centrifugal Clothes Portable Spin Dryer

It has the same features as the brands listed above such as 3200 rpm spin speed. It is also capable of drying 12.2 lbs for wet laundry and 5.5 lbs capacity for dry laundry. Like Wonder wash it only weighs 22 lbs and has dimension of 13.7" x 13.7" x 24". The unit works quietly except when load is unbalanced so user must be careful to balance the load to reduce noise.

Balancing the load can be quite easy because one simply has to simply stop the machine and move some items around to even the distribution of the load and start it up again. This is not as compact as Wonder wash or the Minicounter top but looks more like a tall kitchen trash can which can easily be stored in a corner or in the closet.

Portable Spin dryers basically look and functions the same. Whatever brand one opts to buy, this products are primary manufactured to make living easier for everybody.
