Flimsy Shaver Replacement Head
on September 11, 2026
Posted by: che_b
The last replacement head I bought lasted for nine months. That's not the worst, but it's half as long as the manufacturer suggests. The foil tears inexplicably (what is even happening to cause this?!) -- the only place the shaver goes is in its charger/cleaner dock (which also stopped cleaning).
I'm not thrilled with the longevity of this product, given its price. I have a few cleaning fluid tanks left, so I intend to make it through those and if my next replacement head doesn't last, I'll be changing razors. If it does... well, we'll cross that bridge then.

Replacement head didn’t improve the shave
on September 4, 2026
Posted by: Old Paul
I thought the replacement head would give me a much closer shave. Unfortunately I can’t get even a reasonably good shave no improvement whatsoever would not buy again.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Poor design
on August 1, 2026
Posted by: Indiegirl
Seems like my complaint is similar to many others. Replacement head broke in less than three months of use. Previous one lasted over a year. Don’t recommend, especially for the price.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

After two months it is working well
on July 6, 2026
Posted by: Eric L
I know many others have complained in the reviews about poor quality. Maybe they had a bad batch. I have been using the new head for about two months now and it is working great. I hesitated because of all the bad reviews, but I'm glad I decided to purchase.

Questionable quality and support.
on June 8, 2026
Posted by: Steven
I just purchased a replacement head. I'm now sure it is a "knock off". I called Braun and was told the 74S was no longer sold by Braun but the young lady was kind enough to send me to a website that had the genuine article. It was a furniture site! Now that I've checked all the reviews I think it is time to cut my losses and try another brand. Sorry Braun! I tried to stick with you.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

replacement foils are junk
on May 4, 2026
Posted by: Geor
The replacements heads are junk. They tear easily and repeatedly after putting them in the charger.
And when trying to order the parts, you are directed to a different site with a different product.
