Customer Reviews of Braun Series 5 (8995) Men's Shaver

Customer Review: Works good on face, not neck
Summary: 4 Stars

As my first electric razor, I'm sort of satisfied with its performance. IT does not give that close shave as you get from the traditional razor (Gillette Fusion or Schick Quattro). But I guess, it is ok for everyday purpose when you don't need that close shave. Certainly, it is very convenient & quick to use. I do get the smoothness on my face, but it is not that good on neck. I have to use it multiple times and move around in different directions after stretching the neck to make it work somehow.

The cleaning system does a good job, however it increases the operating cost, since you have to buy the cleaning liquid. I use the supplied brush to clean the razor and move it gently perpendicular to the blade to clean it. Depending on the usage, I try to optimize the cleaning fluid consumption.

The blade is very good and per the manual is to be replaced every 18 months. Mine is going pretty good since last 10 months..hope it does well for next 8 month too.

Supplied travel box serves its purpose well when traveling.

Overall, it is good to buy if you get it in $110-$130 range.
