Review on πŸ’‡ Braun M90 Mobile Electric Shaver: Precision Trimmer, Washable - Perfect Razor for Men by Paula Camacho

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fortunately not in shaving and hair removal products

I bought it with some reservations about battery performance. As a retired pilot I have traveled with a cordless shaver, first a Sanyo and then a Hitachi RM 2500 UD which I have used for years. Both are made in Japan and are very reliable, if a bit slow. For everyday use I have a Panasonic, fast and clean. But it's too big for a long journey. I wanted something light and small, so the Braun M90. My main concern was whether I would have to carry around a bunch of AA batteries to survive a month-long holiday in Europe. Luckily no. I started testing at home. One shave and it works like my old Hitachi. One slide, so it lasts. Instead of 2 minutes it's more like 5. Or maybe 6 or sometimes 7 to get a close, smooth shave. I drove 32 days, shaved every day, on the same set of batteries. At the end of the trip the shaver was pretty tired so I put in a new set of batteries and it works great. Some of the pluses are the ingenious lid/switch latch. Impossible to lose and works great. The razor can be washed in water and there is a small foil brush at the base. The trimmer is a bit different and while it works well I would have preferred the regular straight style for sideburns etc. Overall the shaver works as advertised. This is Braun quality and engineering and I highly recommend it.

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Long wait
