Works Well
on November 4, 2015
Posted by: marjosalmon
from Holiday, FL
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think the Braun Series 3-3040 is a pretty good razor. I have very coarse and thick hair on my face the kind that needs to be shaved every day or I begin to look like a caveman. I have a small lined beard with a goatee and love the trimmer on the side of the razor it makes great straight lines. The razor works both wet and dry which is a bonus and charges up so I can take it with me if I am in a hurry. I works well on giving me a nice shave although with my hair it does take a few passes at it.

After a few weeks....

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After a few weeks of trying it, my review hasn't really changed that much. I will say that the charge lasts a really long time. I've only had to charge it once and that's with usage every other day for over 2 weeks. Simply put, it just takes too long to shave with it. I have to go over some spots several times, rotating the shaver this way and that to hit a strip that it just doesn't want to shave. I really appreciate Braun giving me the chance to try this beautiful shaver out. If only it worked as good as it looks. The flip up trimmer works great. Excellent for shaping or trimming up your mustache. I was really hoping for an all around great wet/dry shaver. I end up reaching for my razor instead.

Braun Series 3-3040 tames a skeptic!
on November 1, 2015

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have found the best electric shaver for my face! Finally. In a search that spanned 25 years, I had tried all types of electric shavers. I had found nothing that could give me a close shave and be tame on my sensitive skin. The foil shavers I tried were always far inferior and were never gentle to the skin. This all changed with my FREE Braun Series 3-3040 that I received as a trial. I am hooked and my wife is too! She cannot keep her hands off my smooth and silky face! Thanks Braun! I am indebted to you for life!

Good Shaver but can't beat my crazy hairs!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall this is the best electric shaver I have used. I must start of with saying my beard/hairs grow every which way. The shaver does a good job fast, but as the pictures illustrate I still can't get the close shave I want.
I still start with an electric shave and follow up with a quick wet shave with a 5 blade razor. So again overall nice razor if your face allows it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just recieved the Braun® Series 3-3040 from Braun for free to try. The trimmer is excellent . The shaver works perfect. It gives you a good smooth shave. I like the rechargeable convience of it and you can take it with you if you're in a hurry.

Alright Shaver
on October 9, 2015
Posted by: smartinezjr
from Vista, CA
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First off thank you Braun for this awesome opportunity to try out this shaver free!!! Let's get down to the shaver my first impression was this a simple straight forward machine that requires lil maintenance not a whole lot of gadgets just the shaver the charging cord and a lil brush to clean the internal parts when needed. Also this is a wet/dry shaver that's a plus not too heavy or bulky just the rite size easy on the eyes. For its first test run I gave myself a good 5 days with no shave to really put it to the test I used lite shaving cream and I began it took a good amount of passes to actually get a pretty descent shave. Down side was it didn't really get all the hair it took more than a couple passes to get most of it and would of been nice to get a cheap bag to store it in but all in all not bad. I did a dry shave to touch up a razor shave it performed well for a quick touch up not a bad machine but didnt really cut down on the shave time so if you're looking for a good touch up machine with an edger this is it.

Great Travel Shaver!
on October 15, 2015
Posted by: trinibm
from Kennesaw, GA
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First of all I think this shaver is a great travel shaver, the best Iâve ever used. Since the Braun 3 shaver was made to be user in the shower, I tried the shaver in both wet and dry applications with varying hair lengths. When it arrived I did not charge the shaver. The shaver comes about 50% charged already. The first thing I noticed was the compact size, and the rubber grips on the sides to prevent the shaver from slipping in the shower. Now as far as performance. I shave once a week in the shower, so I need a shaver that can handle moderately long hair and waterproof. The shaver requires some âscrubbingâ against the face, but does achieve a very close shave. The pop out trimmer is great for places the shaver head cannot comfortably glide. Next, I waited another week and tried to achieve the same results out of the shower. Without the water a bit more âscrubbingâ is involved, and the closeness is not the same; however, time it actually takes to shave is reduced. This is why I say this is a great travel shaver, since it will work right before an interview to help you look great in your car, or on a trip so you donât have to buy disposables. I achieved similar results with 2 day hair growth. The wet was closer, and the dry was quicker. Two things that really astonished me was clean up and battery life. For clean up you press the two side of the head, then run some water (about 10 seconds start to finish). Over this entire process, I did not charge the shaver once, sI still havenât charged it, and it held itâs charge over weeks (remember I started with about 50% to start with). I am glad I was given this opportunity by BzzAgent, and still enjoying the Braun 3040 shaver.

Good But Not Amazing
on October 28, 2015
Posted by: mikestead1
from Milwaukie, OR
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall, I really wanted to love this razor. The packaging is amazing, and straight out of the box the razor feels substantial and well-built. The little trimming accessory is a great touch and works really well. The razor itself however is good, but not great. It can take several passes for it to remove all of the stubble on your face if you have more than a day or two of growth. If you are an everyday shaver this razor will likely be a great fit for you, but if you are lazy or slack on shaving daily (as I often do) then you may have better success with a different product. I will say though of any razor I have ever used, this provides the closest shave and left my skin feeling soft for a long time.
