looking for a shaver I won’t have to replace every year

I’m finally at that stage where I need to buy my own gear instead of just grabbing whatever’s sitting in the bathroom. I’m not trying to get anything fancy or overhyped. I just want something solid that’ll hold up for a few years and not crap out on me after six months. I’d rather pay a bit more upfront than keep cycling through cheap ones every year. My beard isn’t crazy thick yet, but it grows fast enough that I’m shaving pretty regularly. I’m mainly looking for something that won’t wreck my skin or yank at the hairs.

For an everyday shaver that’ll actually last, is foil or rotary the move long-term? And when it comes to durability, what really makes the difference, stronger motor, better blades, or just sticking with a reputable brand? Would love to hear from anyone who’s been using the same shaver for years. I’m basically trying to buy once and be done with it
