Philips Norelco arcitec 1060 Men's Shaving System


First you will need an acetylene torch and a hacksaw to get through the triple layer plastic sarcophagus that Tutankhamun would've envied. Wear heavy leather gloves or the plastic will filet your fingers. Once inside you'll find a razor that resembles the missing link in the Praying Mantis lineage. I was skeptical at first seeing it didn't feel all that sturdy like the Braun non-rotary razor I'd been using. However with this razor I found it required only light pressure to cleanly cut short or longer hairs, whereas I've developed tremendous biceps putting adequate pressure on the Braun to get it to cut anything. I tried one day growth and several days growth and the Arcitec cut it with ease. My face also had a nice sheen when I was done, unlike the road rash from the Braun. Cleaning is a little trying to get all the hair out but manageable. The trimmer is purely an afterthought. It is difficult to use. It is awkwardly positioned and too small to be of any real value. The grip is fairly comfortable except if you have large hands, as I do, then your fingers will start lapping each other, but I digress. Overall it is a very good razor. It conforms to your face nicely and manages difficult curves and tight spots easily. That's what I like most about it.
