Review on πŸ”§ Braun 8000 360 Complete Foil/Cutter Block: Replacement for Models 8995, 8985, 8975 by Brenda Smith

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Only lasted 2 months before it got boring

As some other reviewers have pointed out, the original foil and knife block that came with my 8995 lasted for many years. Subsequent replacements have also lasted a decent amount of time, but in recent years the durability seems to have dropped badly. The latter only lasted about 2 months before becoming so dull it was practically unusable, and I don't even have a full beard or aggressive facial hair growth. I also only use genuine Braun Clean and Renew to clean the film and cutter. In fact, I had to buy manual razor blades to shave. At this moment I don't know what to do. Buy new and switch to another brand? Anyway, I think it's ridiculous to buy a new cutter/foil every 2 months if that's the way it works.

Pros
  • Lots of positive vibes
Cons
  • No machine gun
