A Great Disappointment

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After having a poor experience the first time I used the product, I did not want to give up on it, hoping I would have a better experience under different circumstances. The first time using this product, I had shaved dry, in the morning after having not shaved for 24 hours. The razor left my face with patches of hair and extreme irritation from having to repeatedly shave the same areas over and over. I ended up having to use a regular razor and shaving cream to clean up the mess. The next time I tested the product was after I had already shaved for the day. I have a heavy beard and a noticeable 5:00 shadow at the end of a work day. I decided to use the product to touch up my 5:00 shadow. Once again, the product failed to meet my expectations. It does not cut the hair consistently, leaving stray hairs and patches unshaven. In addition to the poor performance, the shaver makes a mess. It does not hold the hair clippings very well because upon finishing, the sink is covered in trimmings. I would not recommend traveling with this product or using on the go as it will make a mess in your car, suitcase, etc.

Great razor

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using electric razors for a while now and this is one of the better ones I have gotten to use, even though it is not a three circle BladeSystem it is a twin blade straight electric razor. Right off the bat I charged it up and started using it the next morning. I have to say the battery is great and last a long time. I have only charged it one time and I have been using it for over a week now. Overall this is a great razor I will continue to use this after I am done with my review. I would have to say a couple improvements they could do is make it flex a little more when you try to shave your neck I have missed a few spots I would have to go over it again a few times.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am not liking this shaver. It it's weak& misses a lot of hair. I tried both wet and dry for2weeks exclusively. I did like the weight& design. But I don't think I'll recommend it.

Best Braun shaver that I've used
on November 5, 2015

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I don't normally purchase Braun because I don't like round foil shaver heads that pivot. This model is much improved as it has single foil heads and it's the best Braun shaver that I've used to date. A pop up trimmer is also a must for me. This pop up trimmer on this shavers works great for trimming the back of my neck, etc. With this shaver I was able to get a fast and close shave.
I received this product for free from Braun in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.

Close comfortable shave

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy to clean; easy to use. I love the fact that I don't have to shave twice to get a close shave. It fits very good in the palm of your hand. The Braun Series 3-3040 gives a close shave without nicking the neck. Very comfortable. I am able to get many shaves on a single charge I recommend this razor to others, especially if you want a comfortable shave. It Really helps when this was free from Braun to try out.

really great razor

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] i got this electric razor from bzzagent to try out and test to see if i like it and give a review. I have to say it was quite literally the best electric razor I've ever used. The box it came in was great looking and very eye catching. I read everything on the outside of the box and knew exactly what i had gotten, no nonsense or advertisement for any other equipment and told me everything i needed to know about what i had gotten. When i opened the box i expected to see the same on the inside but it was quite bland. but was set up very easy to get out and use right away. The razor itself was in a opened bag so i didn't have to try and pry it out and hope it doesn't get broken, the cord was wrapped in a tightly bound plastic which was really hard to get out and had to use scissors hoping i didn't mess up and cut the cord. The razors brush was floating around in the bottom of the box, not sure if was supposed to be in any plastic or bags but beware because it could fall out and be lost. The razor itself was really nice looking and had wonderful grips on the side and was made to fit in your hand no matter how you hold it. It has a plastic cover on it that covers everything and not just the top which i really like so it wont just fall off when you set down. On the backside it has a small trimmer for your sideburns or just to touch up on your side beard, it adjusts to side up higher than the rest of the trimmer so you can see exactly where you are trimming and not just hope you dont mess up. It is kinda loud but no louder than any other trimmer I've ever had, so no biggie there. The charging on it was better than the box said, i charged it for one hour and it i didnt have to plug it back up for at least 2 weeks. I will definetly keep this electric razor and pass on the wonderfulness about it to everyone and may even buy some for christmas presents this year. I also will not be buying any more disposable razors, hiding this one from my wife and son, and buy an extra one for when i have to leave on drill for the army.

A really close shave

from Milwaukee, WI
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So I have a electric shaver by braun but it is really old then i received the Braun® Series 3-3040 razor from buzz agent for free and gave it a try. I got a really close shave and it left my face feeling baby smooth. It works even if your face is wet and the battery charge is super strong and lasts. I love this razor and will be getting rid of my old razor and using the Braun® Series 3-3040 from now on.

Excellent!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my first electric shave I've ever owned. In the past, I've only used disposable razors, and a few other name brand razors. I was certainly pleased with this Braun shaver. It provides a nice shave, and the attached trimmer works excellent as well. In all, it works perfectly for both shaving and trimming to keep your style as you'd like it. I highly recommend this product.
