Electric razors come in two categories, with circular blades and with long narrow grids like this one. I have always preferred the specific category with grids. From this specific category, I have tried 3 different brands, including Braun, and I have had experience with 4 machines from this brand. I always played in the economical category, below 80 euros, and I was satisfied with the performance for the price of this specific category. However, what always bothered me was how much better a higher-priced category can be and how much difference it can offer! So, after a price opportunity, the Cooltec CT4s fell into my hands. For those who shave with an electric razor, this machine is truly velvet, it is the best I have tried, the grid is so fine that it cuts smoothly and deeply. What I read from many people is that electric razors require many passes, which is true, but the electric razor cannot shave the entire surface that it touches, so it definitely needs a second pass. On the other hand, the against-the-grain shaving it provides offers skin that all women love, and against-the-grain shaving with a razor is not necessarily the best! This specific razor only needs a third pass in the corners of the face, but it does not irritate at all. The cooling system it has is an innovation, and although I don't have a problem, I used it and it does a very good job of cooling the head. For me, it is worth every euro, and if I knew the big difference from the economical category, I would have bought it earlier.
