Solid Foil Shaver, If a Bit Large
on October 12, 2015
Posted by: JakeOtaku
from SeaTac, WA
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Before receiving the Braun Series 3-3040 I was using a Panasonic ES-SA40, which in its own right was a solid shaver. The main pros that the Braun shaver have going for it are most notably the power and 3-foil head. This thing will cut through pretty much any hair it can find, and will do so cleanly, leaving a nearly razor-smooth shave. On the downside, though, the Braun shaver's head is about an inch thick, making it a little bulky for trimming any narrow areas, and essentially reduces it to a single-foil shaver. Overall, the Braun Series 3-3040 is a great shaver, and though the power and multi-foil design more than make up for the bulk, it's still a bit on the pricey side.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] At first I didnt like this razor because it didn't seem to cut very short but after using for a little bit longer I have become more impressed.

Braun® Series 3
on October 23, 2015
Posted by: JaredMLane
from Olathe, KS
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was both impressed and unimpressed with this razor.
First of all: the razor works while wet!!! That is a total positive. This type of razor tends to burn more so needs the ability to work wet. I have not have a closer shave in my life. Not only was the stubble again, but it felt like it had never existed.
Secondly: The nature of this type of razor is to offer a really close shave, because of this there is a lot of razor burn and ingrown hairs that happen. Two days after using this razor I broke out with a terrible burning in my neck. Maybe I'm not shaving correctly, but it was painful for a couple days.
All in all, I recommend this razor. For the little time in between the smooth face and the in grown hairs, I looked and felt very sharp.

Nice Razor!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Disclaimer: I received this product for free from Braun to try out.
This razor is extremely convenient and I enjoyed using it. I currently use a galette fusion razor, which I am thoroughly pleased with, but this was a nice addition to my shaving routine. I think that this product is well worth the price and is very good quality, however, I just wish that it made a little bit of a closer shave. I still felt like I had a lot of stubble after using this.

Awesome comfortable shave

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A closer, faster, more comfortable shave? For Sure. This shaver works for me. After using it, I will not use an old-fashioned razor. I get a better, easier, quicker shave from this Braun Series than my very old smaller single-headed shaver. This is something that I will take when I go traveling or camping. All in all, it's very good.

An incredible upgrade!

Posted by: sreale92
from North Grafton, MA
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was very wary when I accepted this campaign because I purchased the last version of this exact same shaver last year and had terrible results. It took 15 minutes to get a halfway decent shave that I then had to clean up with a regular razor. This version does everything right that the old version did wrong! I was floored when I used the shaver and with minimal pressure had a completely clean shave in under 5 minutes and didn't need to pull out my other razor! I've really got to hand it to Braun for doing everything right with this version and I would urge people who've written previous versions of this shaver off to try this new version.
I did knock one star off because the first use left a greasy black residue on my face in places but it washed right off and hasn't been an issue since.

Great Shaver
on November 7, 2015
Posted by: bearwhite
from Monmouth, OR
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using the Braun Series 3 for three weeks and it is a great shaver. It provides a nice close shave when the hair is not too long. I use it twice a week and it provides the perfect shave. I really like how you can use shaving cream with it. I started out using it with no shaving cream and there was some tugging, which I did not like. I decided to use shaving cream and the shave was more comfortable with no tugging. I get a closer shave with shaving cream and the razor glides over the skin, so there is no irritation. This razor is water proof, so it can be used in the shower if one desired. I have not used it in the shower, but I like that it is option. The razor seems to be very well made, with a nice weight to it. The battery is great, I get two shaves on every charge. I really like how it has an LCD display, so I no longer have to worry about the battery dying mid shave. This has become my go to shaver and I recommend it to anyone looking for a new shaver.

great product with some minor issues

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] i love this product but just cant get rid of the stubble. Wish would have come with blade oil and carrying case. Considering i use this while the beard is gone its ok. I still like my 5 blade razor. Braun you are on the right track. Just have to find a way to get rid of the hair it wont take off. Well built and feels good in my hands. I like the quick charge. I love the convenience of using shaving cream or not. Also that you can get it wet. Overall if you dont have much facial hair i recommend this product but if have a beard then i suggest using the trimmer on here and then using your razor.
