This is just too funny -- especially the guy shaving in the pool -- I guess he's impervious to the effects of chlorine????

Good one Wendell!...

Gee, I can't wait to order one...

Is it just me or does the kit and carrying case not include the charger?

I can imagine the marketing meeting - "Well, the main killer difference of our product is that it works in a glass of water - even a quite small one."

It's all about the experience.

My favorite scenes were the ones with the gents shaving in the car, office, and outdoors...

...because when I shaved with an electric, the shaves were so poor I'd have to shave three to four times a day, too!

I always wanted to be able to shave in a glass of water. I'm ordering 2 of them. One for shaving in a glass of water at home, the other for shaving in a glass of water at work. Oh, I just can't wait!

obviously you guys do not believe in the honesty of a marketing department!

...and only $29.95... BUT if you order now we'll double the offer... That's two Microshave shaverers... Keep one in your tacklebox and one in your glove compartment.... always have one ready for that last minute, unexpected date with Megan Fox...

Sheesh... who'da thunk?

I am entirely happy to report that I have no idea who Megan Fox is. Frankly, it doesn't even sound like a real name. I think I shall concentrate on shaving skills and better results until such time as a Ms. Fox taps me on the shoulder and convinces me my time will be better spent with her.

Chris
She'll have to convince the wife too, of course.

"...an electric razor for the comfort and convenience..."

I wasn't aware that shaving with an electric razor could be comfortable.

I guess I lead a sheltered life with my numerous DEs, soaps and creams.

If Megan Fox tapped you on the shoulder, trust me you'd drop everything real quick

I saw that commercial on TV the other day and just had to laugh... I have never found the need to be shaving more than once a day other than when I tried out an electric!

Megan Fox, the wonders of Google, not really into tats but I've been known to be very forgiving.

So many James Bond aficionados around, I thought there was a quote in one of the Flemming books about distrusting anyone who shaved more than once in a day.

Squire excluded, of course (as Ian would have wished).

Personally, the only reason I bought a place with a pool is so that I can shave underwater every morning.

Me too HH, but I bought a place with a Jacuzzi. Had help with that decision though.

Looks like the Ginzu of electric shavers.
