Aquatouch lineup is great. Pick anyone you find suitable for yourself. Plus are you planning for trimming as well?

i have an 891 with me for the past one year. well if you ask me is this worth then i have to say " not good enough" ...Electric shavers are good only if you have lots of time to spare. If you have thick beard then a trimming is must before shaving. these things will leave some hairs under the chin no matter how hard you try. If you are a first time electric shaver then rashes can occur at times. you will have to use it on daily basis to stay away from rashes. So get a MACH3 instead. if you are hell bend on getting one try to get this one Amazon.com : Braun Series 7- 790cc Pulsonic Shaver System, Silver : Electric Foil Shavers : Beauty
