Great shaver
Bought this to replace my ageing 390 Braun shaver as the foil type suits me best. It is light and east to use (I just use it dry) and the charge has lasted over 2 weeks so far. The only reason for 4 stars and not 5 is that the replacement foils are both expensive and hard to find. Most suppliers are out of stock so hope this is a temporary situation! The trimming head is smaller than my previous razor but am getting used to it now and not really an issue. It certainly cuts well and the foil/cutter assembly is meant to last about 18 months but too early to tell as my old razor needed new cutters about every 6 months. I can certainly recommend it provided a substantial discount is achieved as the list price is way too expensive.

formula 1
my series 3 shaver finally gave up the ghost,and up until then I was quite happy,so I decided to go with bruin again,but upgrade to the series 5, I'm glad I did. It's fast, corners well and get's in close, no nasty skin burns. Plus it's easy to clean, and one other thing ,the battery seems to stay charged for quite some time.

Good buy!
Very nice, close shave, excellent value for money. Sturdy shaving element, not the flimsy, rubbish plastic head used in the cheaper more basic Braun shavers, very important in my opinion.

Noisy but efficient and comfortable
Cuts the face hair real close to skin. I use it every day and is very comfortable. With this machine I have not got ingrown hairs.

Braun razer
Probably one of the best razer I have used. Nice close shave and manages to get long hair as well as normal shave.

Couldn't dop better.
Have avoided these posh expensive shavers over the years but now appreciate its ability to shave off any stray 'sloping' hairs.
