" ... I was reluctant to go to Braun. ... "
" ... They loved it so much that when I asked what they wanted for a birthday present, they told me to get this one. ... Easy to use, clean and has a long battery life, would recommend it to anyone looking to buy a razor. ... "
" ... I used to have a Philips three blades razor which I thought would shave very clean. ... In summary, it's better than the Philips but still it cannot shave my beard completely. ... "
" ... Great shaving mashine I like very much ... "
" ... I found that the Braun Series 7 790cc shaves wonderfully well, just with a dry face. ... Best shave I have ever had. ... "
" ... Shaving faster and smoother , less irritable , ease of use adjustable , clean cut ... "
" ... This has been the best razor that I have ever had. ... "

" ... This has been the best razor that I have ever had. ... "
" ... It gives me a close shave and cleans up very good with the charging/cleaning deck with its variable cleaning and it has indicters on the bottom to let you know when it needs charging or cleaning when you use it without the charging deck, ... "
" ... I'll admit the heads are a bit expensive and I have to change those every 6 months to get the shave I like. ... "
" ... My husband has Essential Tremor so gave up shaving some time ago. ... He is finally able to get a clean shave without worrying about shredding his face with a blade razor. ... "
" ... This razor really gets the job done. ... "
" ... It is a nice razor ... I use it for shaving. ... "
" ... This is the best shave I've gotten from a electric shaver in 40+ years of using them. ... I've used norelco exclusively for over 40 years and lately, over the past few years, been getting very mediocre shaves. ... I'm amazed at my shaves now. ... After each shave and before you clean it, remove the head and tap it out well. ... "
" ... Great shave with no irritation and it auto cleanse itself. ... "

" ... The cleaning station works well and keeps the razor smelling fresh. ... "
" ... This new model uses the same cleaning solution as the last one. ... Instead of just popping of the foil head to spot clean on this one the entire head comes off. ... "
" ... The clean and renew system is a great way to keep the shaver clean each day, and they've greatly improved the cleaning times in the past few years. ... "
" ... I had an old 3 series with the cleaning station. ... I loved it I was in need of a new shaver with a cleaning station. ... "
" ... It's worth the price of admission, and the cleaning station is awesome! ... "
" ... IT IS EASY TO CLEAN. ... "
" ... The 5 I had for over 10 years and loved it the cleaning machine that cleaned the razor rather than fix it I got the 7. ... Always use the cleaning machine and the liquid cleaner cartridge keeps it like new for years then just buy a new blade set, perfect. ... "
" ... The bottom line is I get more functionality, a nice cleaning system and most importantly . ... "

" ... My old 7 performs as well with the original cutting head and a replacement trimmer. ... "
" ... A great razor that always cuts fresh With clean blades ... "
" ... Great for heavy beard ... "
" ... He says it gives a real close shave without the daily accidental cuts from a normal straight blade he'd get. ... "
" ... in fact I wondered maybe it wasn't cutting as I was used to pull from my previous razors. ... "
" ... It doesn't irritate the skin as the good old fashion razor and foam but it misses a few spots, specially around the neck (I think it depends on everyone's facial hair characteristics) ... "
" ... It's good for trimming and very easy to clean with the cleaning station that comes with it. ... "
" ... The edging shaver lets you trim around your goatee or beard with ease. ... "

" ... Definitely a step up from Norelco rotary floating head . ... "
" ... The most comfortable of all that was the Gillette Mach 3 . ... but I use "comfortable" loosely. ... In fact, I've used it 10 days in a row without any sign of irritation. ... The cleaning stuff is nice, and I think the ongoing cost for the cleaning solution will be comparable to Mach 3 (whose cartridges I changed every 3 weeks, after just 9 uses.) ... I got a 6-pack of the cleaning cartridges for about $24, which should last me at least a year. ... "
" ... I recently "upgraded" to the Series 9 9385cc after I dropped and broke my Series 7 that I had been using for nearly 10 years. ... "
" ... - carrying case is compact and more than adequate to protect it ... - blade cartridge is easy to find and relatively affordable ... "
" ... Finally broke down and 5 series Braun that served throughout its lifetime exceptionally. ... "
" ... Btw, I have veryyyy sensitive skin. ... "
" ... I like the swivel lock option for sideburns and under your lip. ... "
" ... this shaver feels great in your palm and the head just glides over the skin. ... "

At first I missed the thinner grip of the other one but now after this period of time like this larger grip just fine and probably prefer it in the future although if my last Braun was any example this will be my last one since I'm 72 years old. ... Anyway I like the feature of picking a sensitive versus aggressive choice but mostly keep the sensitive one on. ... "
