Hello Guys,

I'm planning to buy an electric shaver as a birthday gift for my father. However, I don't have any idea on which brand and model is good because I have used regular shavers all my life.

It is with this regard that I hope anyone of you can give me some information. Buying tips, brand and model recommendation, and experience with different products will be highly appreciated.

Thank you very much.

I'm using a Braun 7680. I don't know how much this is there in Manila but the 7680 will cost you around US$150. Braun shavers are known for their quality. However, it will really depend on your budget.

I have been using Braun and Philishave for over 30 years. No problems with either.

I guess only a few members of MCPhils use electric shavers. :)

Thanks for the post Marwin and Frank. Looks like the popular brands are Braun and Philips.

I visited the website of Braun and Philips to view models they have available and went to some online stores to get an idea of how much they are.

From what I have read, I guess my budget will be from $50-$100 and the Braun Flex XP 5612 looks good for the price.

Philips electric shavers are a bit more expensive although I still have to look at Philips electric shavers that have similar features and price with the Braun Flex XP 5612.
