If you're willing to invest a bit of money, I use the Braun Pulsonic and am very impressed with it. I used to hate electric shavers because they were nowhere near as close as regular razors and they tended to miss spots. The Pulsonic seems to be a huge upgrade though. I've been using it for about a year and am still happy. It is practically as close as a straight, maybe grows in a few hours earlier than a razor. I did spend quite a bit of $$ for it though. I got the 9595 model from here:

I think the cleaner/charger is a big part of why it still works so well. It cleans the thing so much more thoroughly than I would ever be willing to invest time in. That does mean more money to buy replacement cleaner cartridges. Also, replaced my blade/foil once so far to keep it at peak performance.
But, in the end it is a pretty expensive option. Guess you kinda do get what you pay for though.
