Review on πŸͺ’ Braun Electric Razor for Men: Series 7 360 Flex Head Foil Shaver with Precision Beard Trimmer – Rechargeable, Wet & Dry + Travel Case – Black – 5 Piece Set by Niropa Heinen

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Close shave, no skin irritation

I have been using Norelco electric shavers since 1972 and have never had a close shave like my new Braun Series 7. There is absolutely no skin irritation even though I dry shave and don't use a preshave Lotion. The reason I switched from Norelco was because I had a great electric shaver that Norelco no longer made replacement heads for and the non-brand heads I bought didn't fit despite claims to the contrary. I figured if I had to buy a new razor just to get new shaving heads I might try a different brand. The Braun Series 7 was rated the best by both Consumer Reports and the Wirecutter division of The New York Times, so I decided to buy it. Good move. Two small comments but not enough to lower the five star rating. First, the sideburn trimmer isn't very good. Norelco was much better and built into the razor. To use the trimmer on brown you must remove the shaving head and install the trimmer. Not a big deal, but less efficient than built-in. Secondly, the instruction manual is almost wordless, although quite wordy in the section that lists precautions. The instructions are cartoons reminiscent of an Ikea assembly sketch. Fortunately, the razor is easy to handle even without them.
