I bought the R9 shaver 29 September 2019 & am not impressed. It is the worst shave from an electric shaver (plug-in, battery, straight cutter, rotary cutter) that I have used in 50 years. The only shaver my partner asks "have you shaved today?". I have now used it for 2 months wet, with gel, with liquid soap, & dry. I've tried different techniques as suggested but the shave is still unsatisfactory. The counter-rotating heads don't seem to provide much other than to use more battery power. FAILED "our most comfortable close shave" IS NOT TRUE
