I have had this Panasonic for a few weeks. https://www.amazon.com/gp/prod...06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I love it. Super fast and quiet. Clean up is rinsing it under water. 13,000 cuts per minute | |||

My legs bother me when standing for long periods. I do some of my stuff in the bathroom while sitting on the toilet seat. You could get a little stool to hold a bowl of hot water in front of you, and one of these mirrors to shave while sitting down. Or do without the stool and water and just use an electric.  | |||

I switched a couple of years ago. Went to a Braun series 7. Used it when I was confined to bed after surgery. After use, aimply drop into the holder which cleans and recharges. (I actually only put it into the recharger every 3 uses.) Gives a suitable dry shave although this model can be used for wet shaving too. | |||

I'd have a stool in the shower with a hanging mirror of some sort and use a Harry's 5-blade razor on the throat and cheeks. Let the 'stache and goat' grow, knock'em down every couple of weeks with a beard trimmer. I hate shaving but the wimmin in my circuit sort of expect it. And even the 40-some year old women call me 'sir' if I have grey stubble. This is my routine except I'm stand in the shower. For now. | |||

I also recommend using a Braun razor with the cleaning/charging stand. I’ve had one for probably 12-15 years. Clean/charge it every 3rd shave or so. I rinse the debris out of the solution container and refill with denatured alcohol and just a touch of water (otherwise it won’t prime for some reason). It’s not the best shave in the world, but it is fast. I’ll use a regular razor and glycerin soap when going out somewhere special with the wife. | |||

In the past, I have tried the Remington foil shave....not for me. I have been shaving everyday with a Norelco.......since 1960, and have no plans to change. I do not stand in front of a mirror to shave in the A.M. and I use a rechargeable model. I empty my razor's stubble once a week, and that is the extent of the maintenance required. I also have upper lip hair that does gets trimmed with my Remington groomer/trimmer. I am into simple with excellent results. | |||

Oh, no. That was someone else. If I was someone else, I wouldn’t pretend to be me. I was a very well groomed and tailored big city lawyer and financier, investment manager, pilot, triathlete, radio operator and tuba player, until about 7 years ago when I was diagnosed with pulmonary fibrosis. As typical with IPF, since then, I have gotten worse, to my present pitiful state. Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me. When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown | |||

Don't Panic |
I have not used an electric in decades, but I did check out Consumer Reports. There are some well-regarded Braun and Panasonic electric razors listed, but the prices!?!!? In case $150-300 doesn't make you shake your head in amazement, here are their recommended beasties.

I bet they are recommended, at those prices! I don’t think I would get my money’s worth. Thanks! Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

A braun series 5, rechargeable, with the cleaner machine is $115 at Walmart. I've had a 5 for a few years and have been happy with it. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Bra...dless-Razor/36259400 A series 3 can be had as cheap as $27.50. If you don't have a really tough beard it would probably do fine. Keep in mind it's going to take a couple of weeks for your facial hair to get used to an electric shaver (the way it grows). https://www.walmart.com/ip/Bra...Razor-Blue/115587987 All of them at Walmart have free 2 day shipping. | |||
