Electric Shaver for Men, Series 7 7185cc, Waterproof, Wet & Dry Shave, Shaving Kit with SmartCare Center and Beard Trimmer, 3 Shave Modes, 60 Minute Battery Runtime, 10 Piece Set

Well, who would have known - finally an electric shaver that works as advertised, providing a clean, close, satisfying shave that's smooth as that baby's behind every time. Easy and fast too! Just be sure to use it up and down for best results. The instruction manual is also poorly done - so use a few YouTube videos to get all the facts. The little charging stand is not something I will be using, although I had wanted to - placing the shaver on it is tricky and the shaver, yes - placed correctly, is wobbly and precarious. It will fall out of the charger often. So, just plug it in to the bottom and be done with the poor quality charging stand. Overall, a great shaver and worth the bucks. Braun is durable and is easy to clean. Now, go get one right here on Amazon!

This is my first electric shaver and I’m never going back to disposable blades. I was having skin irritation and redness with blades. This Braun has done wonders and has corrected my skin irritation. My co worker said get a Braun if you get one and don’t go cheap. Also recommended foil instead rotating blades. The battery charge last forever. It does get a really close shave if you use it multiple passes. I can’t even imagine if top of the line Braun’s could be much better than the series 7. Works great wet or dry and very easy to clean.

What I liked about this shaver was that I got a good close shave assuming i had not skipped a day shaving. The shaver does not handle 2 days of facial hair growth well. I bought an inexpensive triple head philips rotary shaver that will cut down 2 days+ of facial hair and would use the Braun then to give me a really good close shave. The Philips does not give a really close shave but cuts down long hair very well compared to the Braun Series 7. If you shave every day, you may find this shaver works fine. If you are someone with really fast growing facial hair, this also might not be a great choice. I suspect that shaver design forces a company to optimize a limited set of hair conditions and you have to decide on what is important to you and what you can live with for weaknesses when picking a shaver. I liked how easy it was to clean this out and the fact it is not sensitive to water if used in the shower. I used blade oil on the blades every time i cleaned it and that seems to have kept the blades very sharp. I never used the automatic cleaning system that came with this shaver as I suspected that approach with water and no oil might shorten the blade

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Top-Tier Shaving Experience – Braun Series 7 Wins Again This is hands-down the best shaver I’ve owned. The Braun Series 7 has completely transformed my morning routine. It’s incredibly smooth and efficient—the 360° Flex Head adapts perfectly to my face, making shaving comfortable even around the jawline and neck. The battery life is amazing, easily lasting several shaves before needing a recharge. I also love the SmartCare Center—just pop the shaver in and it automatically cleans, charges, and lubricates. Feels like new every time! It also comes with great extras, like the precision trimmer attachment and a sturdy travel case, which makes it easy to take on the go. If you’re on the fence, just go for it. It’s worth every penny.

What are the best shavers I’ve ever had does a really good job

So, I had high expectations for this device. I remember watching Braun commercials as a kid in the '80s and they presented themselves as something like the BMW of shaving devices , and appeared to have earned the right to make that claim. German engineering has historically meant tight tolerances, form following function, and endurance. So at 47 I decided I was going to plunk down nearly $200 on a device that appeared tailor made to my needs and was expecting a device with some heft and the aforementioned characteristics. The module that you hold in your hand with the on/off controls, motor, driver and battery has a nice slightly tacky rubber skin and nestles right in your hand, but once I started swapping out the shaving head, beard trimming head, buzzy chop your beard down to size head, I started to have some doubts. The receiver for these attachments and the top of the handheld module was made entirely of plastic with a couple plastic spindles that extended out of the top of the device and mated with the cutting attachment. The buzzy beard chopper worked Ok, and it was basically a couple of buzzing blades wrapped in some plastic protective shields, so they clearly weren't intended for precision shaving, but they knocked down my beard pretty well and made it shave ready, but when I added the beard trimming attachment that's when the problems started. Apart from the trimming blade itself the rest of the attachment was again made of plastic, and the clipper grabbed my beard four of five times within the first minute or two of it's first use, and gave me a good pinch on one of them, and at that moment I was glad I had held onto my Wahl peanut because the clipper on the Braun was not going to get the job done. When I finally got the beard chopped down close enough to use the foil shaving head I noted it was also mostly made of plastic, apart from the foil itself and the cutting blades, and much to my dismay the foil cutting head also tugged at my beard, also in a relatively painful fashion, so after testing all three cutting heads on the first test drive I reluctantly decided this device just wasn't going to get the job done. Given the articulating head I tried to give it a chance by exploring various angles of attack, but there was no angle that I could find that ended the grabbing and plucking problem, and by the time I had finished taking it for a test drive on just one side of my face it seemed crystal clear there were two factors creating a kind of synergistic failure. #1 was the quality of my beard, unlike the brown hair I am still lucky to have blanketing my entire head, the hair in my beard is almost entirely gray and anyone with gray hair in their beard knows they are almost as durable as the fibres in a brillo pad. The second factor was the sloppy engineering tolerances in the foil shaving attachment. In spite of the fact the foil shaving head has two foils each with its own cutting head, separated by a slight gap, the dual foil setup was incapable of delivering a clean shave even after moving it back and forth several times like a lawnmower moving back and forth along the same cutting path, but regardless of how many times I did this it just couldn't deliver a close shave. By contrast, my little $25-30 Panasonic wet drive battery powered shaver with only a single foil made quick work of cleaning up after the Braun. The foil on the Panasonic is also a complete hemispherical arc, whereas the foils on the Braun were formed in a kind of lazy arc something like if you tried to putt a golf ball at a hole ten feet away and the ball drifted maybe 4-6 inches to the right at the center of it's path of travel and then slowly drift left again and arrive at the hole in a straight line with the position of the ball when it was first struck, the takeaway from this being the foil only seemed to achieve flush contact with the skin at the apex of this arc, as such limiting the effective cutting surface of the foil to a narrow band down the middle representing 5-10% of the total surface area. I might not have the math here precise to six-sigma standards, and probably should have waited to seal the return box for the device until I finished this review, but I am hardwired for binary thinking the MBTI refers to as The Mechanic", and I held my face very close to a large mirror as I moved the razor back and forth as slowly as I could, as perfectly straight as I could, then switched to moving over a path like an ellipse so it would hit the hairs from every angle, then rotated it slowly like a Roomba confused about which direction to head in next, and even after all that, and 20 or 30 hairs that felt like they had been plucked by the coils of an Epilady, the left side of my face still looked like I tried to shave in the dark with a set of dull clippers with a cutting guard that appeared to rise and fall like the horses on a carousel because the hairs on his face ranged from long to short and then sloped backup to long again, or like a lawnmower than ran on shocks that would rise and fall like the pole running vertically through the aforementioned carousel horses. I am probably rambling now, but the first thing that comes to mind every time I reflect on my disappointment at it''s performance is the cutting heads that were each made almost entirely of plastic, and not the kind of polymers Glock uses to make every part of their high performance handguns except the barrel, but the kind of plastics those cheapo companies used to make the squirt guns you played with as a kid that came out of the bag with cracks in the seams that would leak water so fast you might get off 4 or 5 trigger pulls before the gun ran dry. If I haven't made it clear enough every one of the cutting head seems poorly constructed and flimsy, and even at 6'2" and 250# I can stomp on a lego and not damage it in the slightest, but I could probably stomp on all these attachments and the same time and they when I lifted my foot it would likely look like I stomped on some plastic oyster crackers. OaO.

I had a Braun Series 5 for 18 years that started getting a little rough. Went with the Series 7 based on reviews and price. Using it for a couple months now and am very pleased with it. No issues even if I skip shaving a day or two. Some reviewers complain about the instructions, which are mostly picture format and can be confusing, but that is not a big deal. My only comment relates to removal of the foil to shake out the trimmings, as it is not as easy to pop off as my Series 5 shaver.

It is a bit different from my previous braun series 7

Upgraded from a 5 year old Series 6 and this is night and day better. Slim design, great battery and attachments. So efficient I can shave in 3 or 4 minutes and it's not far off a wet razer shave closeness. The Dock is well designed compared to my old one that had connection problems. I hope this lasts another 5 years!

Muy bueno

I guess shaver preference is a personal choice. But for me, I feel this provide the cleanest and least irritation among the different types of shavers I’ve tried (namely Gillette Shavers, and Philips rotary shavers)

Might be the contour of my neck but seems to do a bad job of getting the neck area. Overall it’s fine considering I had a decent deal on Black Friday.
