Remington Shaver Spares

What electric shaver should go for – rotary or foil?

I have used a foil shaver ever since I started shaving 10 years ago. My trusty Braun recently died on me, and now I’m thinking whether I should get another foil shaver, or try a rotary one.

Having never used a rotary before, I’ve no idea whether they’re as good as or better than foil shavers. Are they?? What’s the difference in shaving quality between a foil shaver and a rotary?

Reason why I always fancied foil shavers more is that a straight mesh covers the whole area you shave over…, whereas on rotaries you have three circles spaced apart, and so with gaps in between it would be more awkward to get as even a shave as with foil shavers… right? Or am I wrong?

Finally, can anyone recommend a good buy? Having flicked through the Argos catalogue, I narrowed it down to these three… although I’m welcome to other suggestions:

1) Remington ‘Dualfoil’ MS2200 (Foil)
2) Philips ‘HQ 7100 (Rotary)
3) Philips ‘Super Reflex’ HQ 6645 (Rotary)

Thanks for any help spared.

i love my norelco smarttouch 9190xl, i dont like the foil ones they tear up my face, but the rotary ones work well on my skin and they get every area despite the gaps and it contours to my face as it flexes, the model i got also has a sensitivity selector to tone down the tension and the blades last forever and are relatively inexpensive, the charge in it lasts forever and it charges very quickly, it also comes with a very chic hard carrying case and base with a clock on it, its one of the best thing i’ve ever bought for myself
