Customer Reviews
Good Shaver
Very good construction. Rinseability makes the shaver great. Great shave. Excellent grip. Won't slip when you shake it dry. Recommend next model up with the flex head (just a few extra bucks).
Great shaver!
I've had this shaver for about two weeks now and I must say I love it. I previously had a Norelco which wore out after many years of great shaves and faithful service but I have to say that my new Braun Smart Control3 shaves me faster and closer with no hair pulling or razor burn at all. A battery charge is lasting me about a week of shaving every day and it charges in an hour or less. I don't know if it will last as long as my Norelco did but for the price I feel it is a great bargain. So far I have nothing bad to say about it.
THE RAZOR THAT DOESN'T CUT IT
Over the past twenty years I have owned at least 6 Braun electric razors. All past Braun razors worked fine so I had the expectation that the recently purchased Braun razor would be satisfactory -- but it is not! Either I got a lemon or Braun has lowered its manufacturing standards on their lower priced electric razors.
Problems: (1) my beard is not heavy, but it takes twice as long to shave as it did with my former Braun razor; (2) Moreover, the shave is unacceptable since the result of this Braun shave is a remaining rather rough, not smooth, beard. Repeated shaving over many areas do not do the job removing the stubble, particularly with respect to short hairs;(3) The side cutter is a "menace" -- I have drawn blood twice trying to use it; and (4) The razor did not come with a plastic "guard" over the cutter as all Braun razors did in my past experiences.
In summary, this Braun razor is a disappointment and I regret its purchase.
