Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Braun 360 electric shaver
Though a tad noisier than I'd like, this is the best electric shaver I have owned. Shaving includes no irritation, is fast, and comes the closest to a new blade shave of any electric I have owned including: Norrelco (several models), Remington, Grundig, Panasonic.

My recommendation for this excellent shaver is enthusiastic.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Improvement over old Norelco rotary shaver
The Braun is an improvement over my old Norelco rotary shaver.
It isn't as close as a blade, but it is a step closer. I also like the cleaning system. Cost may be a consideration.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Where have you been all my (adult) life?
I have had this shaver for a month now, and waited to write the review to give it time to perhaps not live up to the initial impression. My first shave with it just blew me away, and has each day since. I used to shave every other day with my Remington because my face (neck mostly) would be so red, bumpy and sore that I couldn't handle it any more often. Now I can shave every day (even though I take Sat. off) with nothing but comfort. I have less ingrown hairs, and no redness. I have not had one ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Not worth the money. Base has defects.
I bought this for my husband after his rotary electric razor failed after many years. Going from a $30 to a $170 razor raises your expectations however, he says this razor shaves no differently from the cheaper one AND it requires the continual purchase of cleaning solution. In addition, shortly after receiving it the base unit would get stuck in cleaning mode and would run all night. Its bad enough waiting 1/2 hour for the cleaning process to complete but all night? We're not performing surgery ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great product
Great product! The intuitive cleaning sensor aids in appropriate cleaning of the razor for the "dirtiness" of the blades and foil. This aids in conservation of the cleaning fluid. The razor works well and shaves close, closer than prior models IMHO.
