Right can anyone suggest one that does a decent close shaving job on a beard with a close resemblance to iron filings?
 
Rotary blades are a no-no. Foil is the way to go.

I have this one:

Panasonic ES8249K Arc IV Nano Vortex Wet/Dry Rechargeable Shaving System

Dischem also sells the Braun series that is very good.
 
Will that cut really tough bristles?

Also visit some electric shaver forums. Using an electric shaver is something of an art. I benefited from many of the tips and tricks discussed in those forums.
 
Thanks. Will go price some braun series 7s...

I see about 250dorrah on eBay...
 
I see takealot has the 790cc-1 for 2250...

Is it worth getting this or should I pay a little more for a cc-4 from eBay?

Good choice. You won't regret this purchase.

tip: Although you don't need shaving cream with these shavers, I love using the cream from The Body Shop.

Now where the heck do I buy the cleaning cartridges for this thing? Every seems to be out of stock, some sort of supply problem...
 
Braun, but a bit expensive here, over R 2000 at Dis-Chem. I got a series 7 last year as they were on a promotion at a GrossMart in Berlin. Paid equivalent of R700 for it. Ok, but doesn't do as good a job as one of these 4 blade goodies and I have a soft beard and only need to shave every 2 days
