Braun Series 3 340 Men's Shaver
I purchased the Braun 340 because I am currently tired of blade shaving and I travel a lot and a shaver takes up less room in my bag than a razor, shave cream & spare blades. I have vascilated over the years between a shaver - prior Brauns & Norelcos - and a blade - current blade is the Fusion.
I have found the Braun 340 to be a very good value as a shaver, but the trimmer is not particularly easy to use - especially if you have a goatee.
The Good - The shaver works well on all my shaving areas - face and neck. It requires a minimal number of passes to get the beard cut (assuming that you pull the skin tight) and it does not pinch or cut my skin. The shave is pretty close as well, so I like the shaver aspect of this bit of kit.
The Not So Good - The trimmer is a straight trimmer, i.e., not a 90 degree angle so you have to extend it and sort of stab at your face to use it. This works OK so long as you don't have facial hair you want to keep where the foil hovers. If you have a goatee, when trimming your moustache you have the choice of shortening either your moustache or beard on your upper lip. This is the reason that I rated this unit 4 rather than 5 stars - would have gone 3.5 if that was an option.
Overall - I like this shaver, but the trimmer should be a 90 degree job. Fortunately, I have to shave the goatee for work anyway, so the trimmer's limitations are not a deal breaker for me at this point. I can't see spending another $80+ for the proper trimmer and the pointless alcohol bath which continues to eat your $$$.
