For the last 15 years I have used Panasonic razors working my way up the range. I decided to try a rotary razor for a change not having used one since the 60's; It was very low revving and seemed more intent on persuading whiskers to surrender rather than aggressively chopping them down. I am not sure whether more experience will improve my opinion, I suspect that if I had started with a rotary razor I might view it more kindly.
