Customer Review: It's like new again!
Summary: 5 Stars
This was my first replacement for this razor that I was so impressed with when I first tried it almost 2 years ago. It was probably long overdue, but I finally ordered this replacement blades. It was like I just pulled it out of the box new again. Next time I won't wait so long to keep this thing tuned up. FYI - I don't buy the cleaning solution for this. I bought a gallon of denatured alcohol for my local hardware store. When I need new solution, I clean out of reservoir real good and refill with the denatured alcohol. I then add a few drops of my favorite cologne. I change up the fragrance with every refill. Much cheaper and I get a nice variety of scents. Give it a try!

This replacement cutter head and foil pack installs with absolutely no fuss in only a few seconds and the result is you'll be shaving like your razor was brand new.
I was able to get a good year out of my razor on the first set of foil/cutter head, and this is now my third replacement. I have a rather stiff, heavy beard and often shave twice a day, depending on whether or not I have something going on in the evening.
This last fall I shaved my head bald and have used the Braun Actovator to keep my head shaved daily. This has caused quicker wear on the cutter head and foil and the last foil actually developed a small tear between a couple of the holes in about the 7th or 8th month of use. Once that happened it was impossible to use the razor without getting scratched and looking like I had been in a fight with a small housecat.
Still, once the foil and cutter were replaced again, this is the closest shave I have ever had using a power shaver or razor. Only thing that comes closer is a real blade... and I've used several other reciprocating type razors and rotary shavers, too. I'm very pleased with this product and dread the day that Braun discontinues this replacement set... if they ever do.
Customer Review: Braun is making some money here, but I would buy it again.

As mentioned, this replacement blade does not appear to have a lot of substance to it, but it does make a big difference after 24 months, and I probably should have got it after 18 months, as suggested.
I would buy it again.
Customer Review: Refreshed!

After almost 2 years of not changing the blades (I know, especially since I need to shave everyday), I can't believe how great the shaver is after replacing the blades.
