Smooth razor

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've always used Norelco shavers because that's what my dad used. I am now a Braun used, it's that good! I'm hooked and won't be going back. This razor gave me the smoothest shave I've had.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Another Great By Braun
on July 17, 2017

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the third Braun I have owned. What I like is every time a new one is released, it only gets better. I am bald but have hair that grows, and using a plain old razor just does not cut it. The day I got this, my head actually needed to be trimmed. I like it so it feels like nothing is there; just my scalp. I played around with it first, made sure it was charged, and started shaving. It now moves somewhat left and right, but there is a small slip-upward razor attached which helped tremendously. When I was done, my head wasn't 100% like a baby's butt, but very close. The charging now is lit up, so you know how much battery is left, which is a good add on. It also charges extremely fast. Then, I needed to trim my beard and sides. I used a #1 attachment which come with the shaver, and in a matter of less than a minute, my sides and beard were perfectly even. The foil top is almost similar to the prior one, but the good part is that it moves left and right. It comes with a handy carrying case, the #1 attachment, charger for a normal electrical outlet, a small brush and of course the razor. I believe Braun continuously innovates and find this razor to be great! It also has a cover for the foil area to protect it. It works great for me, and would be an awesome gift or something for any man. Another plus is that it works wet or dry. When will you try?

Best electric razor I've ever used!
on July 18, 2017

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've used several electric razors in the past (two-headed foil guard and three circle headed electric razors) and always hated them. They would always irritate my face and sensitive skin and more often than not snag and rip the hair instead of cutting it. This completely put me off of electric razors until I tried this Braun Series 5.
Upon opening it I was worried it would be the same as all the other razors I tried but was rather happy to see that I could adjust the head of the razor as well as seeing a pop-up trimmer on the back. After charging it, I decided to try it out and was completely surprised. It gave me a very close shave that is comparable to but can only be beat by a manual razor. It got my cheeks extremely smooth to the point where I can’t even feel the hair follicles. I then tried it out on my neck. Maybe my hair grows differently from others but it got the hair down close to the skin but did not shave it down as close as on my cheeks. I was still happy with the result and it extends the time I can go without using a manual razor to shave my neck.
After using the main razor portion I decided to try out the trimmer and use it to trim my beard. It worked great at helping me shape my beard and get clean lines. While it didn’t help to trim my beard down to the exact length that I get with my beard specific trimmer, it helped me get clean cut lines. I only used these functions under the dry condition and am not certain about how it works when wet but I assume it will work great then too.
Cleaning it was very easy too as the head comes off with a press of two buttons on the side. After cleaning it I put it away in the bag that it came with to store all the parts of it together.
Overall, this is my favorite electric razor around as it shaves close to the skin, doesn’t snag or irritate your skin, has a great trimmer for getting clean cut lines, and feels comfortable in my hand. I will start using this whenever I travel and in my shaving routine at home as I will have to supplement it with an occasional use of a manual razor for a smoother shave on my neck.

Braun Series 5

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my first experience with a foil, electric shaver. I found that it did an excellent job for a fast, smooth shave. The razor is well balanced and very comfortable ergonomically as well as being attractive. The battery life is phenomenal and it charges quickly. I won't give up the wet shave experience with a double edge safety razor that I currently enjoy, but if I'm in a hurry this will be my go to razor. I have very sensitive skin and this is by far the most comfortable, least irritating electric razor experience for me.

So easy to use!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was able to use it right out of the box... After charging it first of course... and I can't get over how easy it is to use! I've tried other electric razors and none compare to this. It leaves a very close shave and no irratation unlike Manuel razors.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have never had such a sleek design of a shaver before, and it gets soon close to leave a baby soft feel of a shave I think I am gonna ditch my regular shaving stuff in the dust and use this for now on.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Braun series 5 wet/dry shaver is the best I've ever used. I have pretty thick facial hair and this shaver left my face clean and smooth. I also enjoyed the fact that it was VERY user friendly right out of the box.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think the shaver provides a very close and comfortable shave. It is a high quality product. It feels well balanced in the hand. It charges quickly. It is incredible powerful and is very quiet.
