Braun 5790 shaving system,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Braun Series 3 390cc Clean & Renew System (Health and Beauty)
I replaced a Norelco rotary shaver with the Braun. I liked the idea of a shaver being cleaned, sanitized and charged after each shave so I bought the Braun. So far, it shaves much closer than my Norelco. The shaver is not quite as "mobile" as the Norelco due to its shape and it is noisier than my Norelco, but it is comfortable on my face and does a good job. The cleaning system works well but is also noisy for about 5 minutes. You do have to replace the cleaning fluid cartridge after every so many cleanings, but that doesn't entail a lot of money. All in all, I like the shaver and would buy it again. I do use a pre-shaving fluid on my face and it seems to help with the closeness of the shave.

5.0 out of 5 stars
faster than my old braun, less irritation,
This review is from: Braun Series 3 390cc Clean & Renew System (Health and Beauty)
Let me begin this review by stating the reaon for the new purchase. My current shaver, a dated brain 5414 has been slowly dying for the past year or so. It started with the battery not holding a full charge, and what I mean by that is the motor was not nearly as fast when on battery than when plugged in. So, it got to the point that I need to keep it plugged in all the time to get a decent speed, and even than it still seems to be running slower. I actually opened the unit up thinking I might be able to remove the battery and that the shaver might be a bit faster when just using the power from just the plug, but the battery appeares to be hard-wired in so I skipped that. Anyway, given that the shaver was 6+ years old and slowing down, I decided to wait until the current foil started to chip apart to get a new shaver since putting money into the old one seemed to be a waste. Well, that happened yeseterday, cut my face good with that bloody foil!
Man, I think I paid like 40 bucks (cdn) for my 5414 so was a bit surprised to see the prices of braun shavers these days. Their cheapest model was around 50, but the features were taking a step back from my 5414 and it really looked cheap. After some research and reading reviews, I decided on the contour unit as it is pretty much middle of the road in the braun lineup and matches what I am used to in features. The more expensive units (360 etc...) seem a bit gimmicky to me to be honest. 300 bucks for a shaver, I don't think so. I was not plannning on geting the 'contour system' with the auto cleaning thingy as the refills appear to be a bit pricey and that will add up over time, however, the store I bought this at was having a sale and the system package was only about 10 dollars more than the stand alone shaver so I said what the heck. Well, had my first shave this morning and was pretty happy with it. Right away before it even touched my face I could hear the difference as the contour with its new fully charged battery sounded like it was going about 10X as fast as my aging 5414. Basically I got the save type and quality of shave that my 5414 gave me, accept that it took fewer passes to get all the hair and with less irritation. I'm guessing the latter point is at least partly due to the fact that I did not have to go over the same area 5 times. Maybe their new 'smart foil' design with the different shaped holes helped too, who knows? As for the trimmer part that other reviewers have complained about, yeah, its a bit weird since you have to hold the shaver horizontally to use the trimmer (unlike the 5414), but big deal, it works. In fact, because it is positioned that way it makes it easier to get at nose hairs. I think somebody in another review (check the solo ones, not these ones) also complains about there being no way to 'lock' the shaver. Who cares? The on/off button is on the side so it is not likely to be turned on by accident. Being the first day, I have yet to try the clean&renew thing. It says in the book to use it everyday but saying that is overkill is an understatement; its an obvious attempt to get you to buy more refills. I'm going to wait until the cleaning light on the shaver comes on to try the clean&renew system, we'll see how long that takes to come on. I'm guessing I'll probably run it through the cleaning system at most once a week. I mean the the foil/cutter apparently has a life of 18 months or less anyway, so what's the point in wasting cleaning solution every day? Brush out the stubble with the brush, run it under water if it makes you feel better, and move on. Its kinda funny as on their website and on the box itself, one of the features is that it is fully washable, yet in the product manual it states that you should only do this when you have to and can't use the clean&renew system. Nice job guys. Tap water cleaning is evil, but a feature! I am going to post a follow-up to this review in a few weeks so keep an eye out for that one as I will have tried the cleaning system. So, bottom line is its faster than my old one and I get less irritation, thumbs up! With its silver housing, it also looks pretty cool, especially with the little blue light on the cleaning thing!

OMG!,

This review is from: Braun Series 3 390cc Clean & Renew System (Health and Beauty)
To make a long story short, I can't even think of shaving daily with blades because of irritation. I also own an 5-year-old high-end Norelco rotary (like it quite a bit), but I can only get a close shave with it while shaving (wet) every 3-4 days, I can shave with it (dry) daily with only minor irritation, but not a close shave... not close at all!
After researching insatiably, I decided to try a foil electric (Panasonic or Braun) because almost every review I read said that it provides less irritation and a closer shave than a rotary, and it's better for shorter hairs, making it ideal for daily shaving. My plan was to buy the Braun, use it for 30 days, return it and then give the Panasonic a try for the next 30 days, and then choose the one I liked most. Let me put it this way, I know it takes the skin 2-4 weeks to get used to a new shaving system; I have owned the Braun for a total of THREE DAYS (that's right, 3 shaves) and I can honestly tell you that I will NOT be returning it, and not even thinking about trying out the Panasonic. This is the best shave I have ever had in my life, period! The first shave wasn't as close as I was expecting, but after running it through the cleaning system, the next two shaves were spectacular... close, smooth and not one bit of irritation! Oh, and don't pay attention to those who complain about the cleaning station being loud... I can't even hear the damn thing while the shower is running, and it only makes noise for about 5 minutes, after that it's all quiet... plus it has this really cool blue light that gives my sink counter a very high tech look.
