Braun - Replacement Head for Series 7 Shavers - Silver

I don't know who makes the replacements parts for these shavers but, the quality control leaves much to be desired. This replacement head is not nearly as good as the original. Not by a long shot. It's not as sharp as the old one (which I thought needed replacing) and, it rattles and buzzes like crazy. I'm afraid it will fall apart, or worse, damage my shaver. I'm glad I kept the old one. Even after a year of use, the original is still sharper, smoother and much more quiet than the replacement. Even at $37.00 (which is a good deal), these replacement heads aren't cheap and, one should expect better quality. I'm disappointed.

I have been shaving with electric razors for about 40 years and I have a pretty tough beard. With the other brands I have used in the past I only got 3 - 4 months of use with new heads. I switched to the Braun razor a few years ago and I now average 9 - 10 months of comfortable use with a replacement head. They’re a little higher priced than some of the other brands, but in the end they’re saving me money. This is a great product and I like ordering from Best Buy. They have great service and they are delivered to my door in a short delivery time. I plan to keep using the Braun razors and keep ordering my replacement heads from Best Buy. It is a win-win for me.

I have to admit, I really struggled when looking for this item, and to be perfectly honest I was completely at fault. I used to have an older model that had 2 parts that needed to be replaced, the blades on the inside and the outer casing which contains the foil. I completely forgot the fact that this model incorporates both in it's replacement cartridges, big idiot me I kept looking for a package that contained both but I could find none, just this lousy package which only seemed to contain the foil. I just couldn't wrap my hear around as to why they would only sell the foil and not the blades. Anyways, don't be like me and remember that it's all in one.

seriously, it's a thing... as I went to every store around trying to find these darn replacement heads, I read online that there was some manufacturing shortage, so you can still buy the razor (not discontinued) but not the replacement heads? ridiculous... luckily best buy had them available online, they shipped sort of fast enough and I didn't have to pay 3x the amount by the ebay gougers... I guess I better go buy another replacement just in case the problem is still going on in 18 months (which is now long replacement heads last)

Guys, shaving can be a real pain. I swore I would never switch to an Electric razer, as I thought nothing would beat a blade shave. I was very wrong. I tried the Braun series 7 electric shaver and it shaves in 1/3 the time a blade does. Changing cartridges is a snap, it pops off and the new one pops back on. It's all dry shaving, and a breeze to clean. I tap the shaver head on the sink and a touch of canned air, and I'm done. It cleans itself in the clean and renew charging system so your next shave is as good as your first. Try it, you won't ever cut your face again, and save tons of time.

I had been waiting for replacement heads to come down in price for my Braun series 7 as they were ridiculously priced over $60. Price finally came down and Best Buy offered an attractive price to Elite Plus members. Jumped at the opportunity. Replacing the head has made a world of difference as my old head started to pull hairs rather than cut. I didn't give 5 stars only because I think the replacement is still expensive.

The last Braun I had was the Braun 360, which gave an awesome shave. The problem with that generation of razers, was you had to replace the foil and the cutter block seperatly. Now Braun, has come out with a one stop replacement for both parts, in it's cassette head. The old one snaps right off and the new one slips right on, very efficient. If you've swore never to use an electric razer, try one of Braun's new ones, well worth the one time expense, and never cut your face again!

The Braun self-cleaning razors are the best shavers I've ever used. I've had to replace the blade/foil cassette twice because I accidentally dropped the razor, damaging the thin foil. Once damaged, no choice but to replace it. Blades have been good for at least a year anyway. This cassette is the latest replacement model for my model of razor. It does not appear to be as rugged as the previous replacement cassette, and is obviously lighter in weight. It still does a great job on my beard.
