Customer Reviews

Not impressed for the money paid
I got this as a present to replace one of my battery-operated foil shavers which had to retire for the same reason I'm gonna retire this expensive 8975 (aka 550) - razor burns. This shaver gives a pretty close shave, but at what cost? It rips my skin to pieces - my skin got red in a matter of seconds.
ATT'N: for people reading this review - I'm not claiming it's a bad shaver, I have to admit that I know someone who uses it and is very happy with it, it just doesn't suit my type of skin.
So, first star for the close shave, second star for the battery time, second week and I still haven't charged it. And the final star for nifty hard-shell case with the brush :)
Two missing stars for: one ripping my face to pieces second week in a row and one for hard-shell case not being able to hold a cord (what's the point of a dual-voltage shaver, if one has to stick the cord somewhere (not with the shaver)?)
P.S. Bottom line - not recommended to anyone even with a slight case of sensitive skin. :)

Good Shaver, doesn't get neck hair
This shaver is sturdy and works well; it shaves very close and the charge lasts for about a week. Like most other shavers, however, it does not get neck hair.

Nice looking and works well
Although this item is not cheap, it has worked well for me since I bought it @1 month ago. Braun makes excellent products.
