Do Not Buy This Razor – If I could give a lower star, I would. Purchased this razor for my Husband. Think Braun was a good well known brand. What a joke. The razor only lasted a couple of days, cut my Husband face. Thats when the real trouble started. First the shop we purchased the razor from couldn't refund our money - even though it was under a month old. We where… Read more
given a refund centre number to call. So we called, received an email with a link to fill out for our claim. Did this. Received another email with mailing instructions- did this and mailed the razor back. Now it was meant to be a 30 days and our refund would be back in the bank. NO. So I called and asked for the tracking number- just as well I posted it with tracking. Called back - got we will have to check if it is at the postbox. REALLY. Another call the next day, told that the refund would be, back in the back in 48hrs. I WAS A FOOL. To this date still no refund. I guess this is what they do. They keep promising but not delivering.
Braun series 7 – Received braun series 7 shaver for xmas I believe this is earlier series 7 absolute rubbish do not purchase have gone back to my old phillips shaver I will never buy a braun overpriced under achieving razor again Show details
Best shaver I ever had – I used to buy a cheap shaver every 6 months until I decided to go for better quality instead of just price. Ive had this shaver about 3 1/2 years and it still shaves very close today. Im happy to support a company which puts quality first so Im upgrading my shaver to a series 9 although I dont really need to for this one I could continue to use… Read more
for another few years. Battery has lasted so, so long and still get plenty of use from a full charge. Replacement foil is needed about once every 2 years but Im very happy with that. Really quality shaver and now I will have both a series 7 and 9 but the series 7 is just too good not to want to continue using it so I will use both. The thing Im finding about Braun is you dont throw out your old model because you upgrade. What happens when you upgrade a Braun product you get left with 2 quality devices. I recently bought a digital thermometer it is awesome. I dont mind paying extra for quality that lasts years instead of cheap stuff that has to be replaced every few months. Years of use of my series 7 and with a series 9 I wont be able to retire the 7 because its just that good. Highly recommended after years of use. Got mine both from Shaver Shop. My series 9 should arrive this week.
Best shave ever – Bought this for my elderly father after researching. He wanted a foil one as he’d had great problems with a rotary model, and couldn’t change heads easily. He shaves every morning, dry, so I just bought the basic model rather than dry/wet. He loves it and says it gives him the best shave he’s ever had.
Works very well – This is my second Braun 760cc. I use it 6 days a week and only charge once a week. Gives very close shave and smooth finishing. Got it when it was special at HN. Been using it for 3 years. I prefer Foil over Rotary due to the ease of using it and also ability to lock the head. Have not changed cutting heads yet. Cleaning is very easy and comes with self cleaning function. Show reply
Happy to purchase again when needed – I have read so many variable reviews on this model , extreme at best . I have never had a more consistent shave from any electric razor before this one I can say the polarizing reviews are because some people have very different skin , facial hair and expectations . I would suggest if the unit is not purchased with the cleaning base don't… Read more
bother, as water cleaning doesn't really work as well as the cleaning base as the foil has too many areas where the water doesn't clean or lubricate the foil . After 2 years of use I am still more than happy to spend $ 90.00 every 18 months for a foil and the cleaning cartridges . I don't use foam or oil any more as it gives me a rash and the oil is damn expensive anyway . I used to shave wet and that would take forever and the foam was not much better, the oil made holding the razor more than difficult . The cleaning solution alcohol based leaves a coating on the foil and if I can bother I clean the razor foil again in the cleaning base (short cycle ) which helps get a closer shave in the middle of the shave , after a 2 or 3 day growth . I have tried Philips rotary , Remington and reckon wet blade is superior , but still cut myself as I have to wear reading glasses to wet shave with a blade . Word of warning - the shaver shop originally supplied me a refurb version of this unit and the head on these models has a lock that either locks or it doesnt , very common fault is the locking part of the head is easily broken my original arrived that way and with the replacement I was told some dealers sell refurb stock so check the unit hasnt been a returned item , otherwise very happy purchase .
Waste of money, – Does not give a good shave. A waste of money. I paid over 2 hundred dollars for this product - what a disappointment. I wish I could my money back.
Good shaver, shame about the trimmer – I was given this for my 40th birthday to replace an older Braun shaver / trimmer. The shaver is very effective but I really think the trimmer is cheap, plasticky and less effective. For the money, I expect more but I suppose that's the way all companies are heading now.
rubbish – This electric razor gives a very poor shave even after going over the same area several times. It is a very slow process and does not live up in any way to the claims of the manufacturer or the shop who sold it to me. I have persevered for 6 months and if I need a decent shave, use a wet blade. The shop does not want to know, I cannot find a number for Braun customer service. Don't waste your money, they are not cheap and the result is poor
Step Above My Old Rotary Shaver – I bought this shaver to replace my years old Philishave SmartTouch XL (2 head rotary system). After 1 week, this is definitely a step up, with a closer shave (almost close to a razor), less abrasive on the skin, and the large rectangular head means it covers more of your face with fewer strokes. Cleaning is a breeze with the clean and charge station.
The perfect shaver – Bought this after suffering from too many ingrown hairs from blade shaving. It's brilliant, and great for sensitive skin. Can't recommend it enough. If you've always been a bit skeptical of electric shavers, try this - especially since it's now half price at Shaver Shop.
