Braun - Trimmer - Gray

I tend to have to buy a new electric shaver every other year for various reasons, so I didn't want to spend a lot of money, but still get solid performance. Of course if you spend $100+, you're pretty much guaranteed to get a solid shaver, but I didn't want to shell out that much cash. Yes, yes, you use a shaver everyday so a $100 investment isn't that much... but I just didn't feel like paying that much. So I had a mission to get a shaver around $50 bucks without expecting too much. Another requirement, I've had a goatee since college going on 17 years, so need something to trim the chin without much effort as well. Lucky me, this shaver/trimmer was on sale, and BestBuy also was handing out $10 off coupons for shavers (excluding Norelco/Phillips), so that sealed the deal. So honestly I didn't expect much from this $40 shaver, but it performs SOLID, and as it's a wet/dry shaver, it's easy to wash in the sink/shower as well. I've had some bad experiences with lateral blades (instead of rotational) where the blades snag on your beard (ouch!) if you let it grow out too long, but this badboy seems to handle one day stubble to 3 day growth with the same efficiency. Might be somehow related to the unique mesh design, not sure. Oh and the last great part, it charges in 5 minutes (give or take a min). I always forget to charge my shavers, and I kick myself when I'm in a rush. I was skeptical at first, but in this exact situation, I plugged it in to recharge, went to handle some business in the bathroom, and charging was complete when I came back out. (Sorry, now you know how long it takes for me to handle business in the bathroom) Anyway, great product!

After 25 years, my 100 series shaver motor died and can't be replaced. So this single foil shaver is the replacement. Similar to the 100 in many ways, is augments the job of my heavier two-sided shaver. This helps cut the beard shorter. On the positive side: The Cruzer does not heat up the face like the old 100 model routinely did. My only concern was the foil screen did flip out of the housing - perhaps owing to the pressure I was applying with the shaver against my face.

Everything is fine with Braun shaver. Only 1 weird change compared to the older (same shape&model) version: the old model had low voltage charger cord that allowed shaver to be plugged in/used even when the battery was at too low a charge to run it. THIS NEW model DOES NOT ALLOW CORD (LOW VOLTAGE) TO BE PLUGGED INTO SHAVER TO RUN SHAVER IF YOU FORGET TO CHARGE A LOW BATTERY AHEAD OF TIME. UNHANDY IN THIS ASPECT.

This trimmer is perfect for “basic” use. I trim my 5 o’clock shadow once a week and this works well. Is perfect for Travel. The battery lasts a good amount of time. A “odd” drawback is the newer models do not let you shave while it is being charged. But not a deal breaker. I really like this razor. It is like the third one I have had, and bought one for both my sons’ !

If you can still get one I'm getting another one. No matter what you get it won't last as long as you want it to. This one is better than the previous one already so if it lasts a long time or not I won't care the price was way better than any previous model and I won't have to settle for something I don't want or need and pay alot more for no choice. This one is quieter and cuts closer as well.

A simple basic shaver, yet has various attachments for lots of trimming options. I don't use the options, but the shaver is sturdy and gives a thorough and efficient shave. The charge lasts a long time before needing a recharge. Would be better if had extra screens for future replacement.

I've always liked Braun for my shavers. When heads wears out, the shaver usually cuts you. This shaver is the most comfortable one ever. The head seems to be made better. The shaver last a long time from week to week. I do not have a heavy beard. Works great for me.

Solid product with good attachments. Holds charge very well
