Customer Review: Great Shaver at a Great Price!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been a loyal user of Norelco's shavers ever since my dad bought me my first one when I was just starting to shave. A decade later I've gone through three of Norelco's shavers and was, until the past few years, very happy with them. 3 shavers over 10 years works out to an average of over 3 years per shaver (I'm good with math, I know) which wouldn't be too bad, but it hasn't gone that way. My first shaver lasted me 6 years, the second only about 2.5 years, and the most recent (and final!) Norelco shaver lasted only about a year and a half and the past 6 months have been shaving misery. Irritation and razor bumps galore, especially around my neck and under my jaw. It was pretty embarrassing having hardcore razor bumps on my neck and the irritation got to be so bad that for the past year, I've just been using a beard trimmer to trim the scruff down to a "1" in length...I think I've only been clean shaven 5, maybe 6 times in the past 12 months!
I was confused because my first Norelco shaver had always worked so well but the last two were pretty unsatisfactory. I've heard elsewhere that this most likely had something to do with Phillips Electronics taking over Norelco and the quality control is not what it used to be. Bottom line: it was time for a change.
I'd always dismissed Braun's shavers because they seemed inferior to Norelco's 3 shaver heads and Norelco's famous "lift-and-cut" system. But, being fed up with Norelco's crap quality control, I gave the Braun 5775 a try (got it on sale at Target for $[...]) and I've been extremely happy with it for over a month now. I've gotten, literally, no razor burn/bumps on my neck. None. That alone made me extremely happy, but the shaver is high quality all around so I've been very pleased. It shaves great...not as close as a Norelco (probably has something to do with the "lift-and-cut" technology that Norelcos have)...but I will glady trade an extra minute or so of shave time for no razor bumps. Clean-up is easy as pie under the faucet (but so was the Norelco, to be fair). Feels great in my hand. Battery lasts a looooong time (so far at least).
It's not perfect however: The pop-up trimmer is pretty lame (fortunately, I still have my beard trimmer), long neck hairs (3+ days of growth) take several passes to get them all (I've started using the beard trimmer to knock down the long ones to a shaveable length first and that's worked fine), and the "empty shaver head" light comes on all the time, even after I've just cleaned the shaver. The noise level is pretty high compared to the Norelcos but nothing unacceptable.
Long story short: I'm very happy with this shaver. The "pro's" far outweigh the "con's" and I'm a Braun guy from here on out. Finally, and I don't know how much help this would be to your decision making, but I would rate my "beard toughness" as being about a 7 on a scale of 1 (being teenager peach fuzz) to 10 (being an Alaskan mountain man beard). Some of my beard grows sideways as well and I just use the Braun shaver in the appropriate direction there and it takes care of the problem. My only regret is that I didn't pony up the cash for the Braun 360 razor. Maybe next time (if there is one!). Good luck!
