Product Description

Amazon.com Review

With a high-speed, 7,800-rpm motor, a pivoting head that adjusts to the face's contours, and a three-stage cutting system, this cordless shaver delivers an extra-close shave in a hurry. The three-stage cutting system consists of two foils with a trimmer between. The first foil cuts stubble, the trimmer cuts long and curly hairs, and the second foil cleans up anything left behind. A pop-up trimmer handles mustaches and sideburns. On its charging/storage stand, it recharges fully in one hour for 40 minutes of cordless shaving time and offers a five-minute quick charge that's good for a single shave. A light in front indicates when the shaver is charging. Encased in contemporary blue and black, the shaver is tapered to fit the hand, has soft-touch side panels for a secure grip, and rinses clean. Razor, charging stand, cord, and cleaning brush fit into a hard travel case. The shaver carries a 30-day, full-satisfaction, money-back guarantee and a two-year warranty against defects (foil and cutter-block excluded). --Fred Brack

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent product, September 3, 2003
By 
Paresh (Herndon, VA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Braun 5612 Flex XP Shaving System
I am very happy with this razor. It does a great job shaving my face and actually is much less irritating to my skin compared to my old corded Braun shaver. ...

... The 5612 shaves pretty close, although a few passes are required to get that really "smooth" skin feeling. It has a long hair trimmer sandwiched between the two foil blades. This is great because you can run it over a pretty thick beard and it chops off the long hairs before shaving them close in 1 pass. It also comes with a nice hard travel case so it is easy to pack.

The other thing I really like is being able to rinse it off under water when finished. That saves me a lot of time compared to my old corded razor. It was such a pain to brush it out all the time - the hairs would get all over the sink and then I had to clean the sink. Now, I just run the razor under hot water for 30 secs and I'm good to go.

For the price, this has most features anyone would need. I couldn't see spending over [a dollar amount]for a shaver. This one has a nice "middle-of-the-road" price and gives a great shave.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not The Best And Not The Worst, February 22, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Braun 5612 Flex XP Shaving System
I'd describe this shaver as very middle of the road. The better Braun shavers give a much closer shave. What is great about this one is the cleaning. Just run it under hot water and it's as clean as when you took it our of the box. If I had to do it again, I'd spend a bit more and get the next model up. By the way..allow plenty of time to open the package.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good buy., April 27, 2004
This review is from: Braun 5612 Flex XP Shaving System
I've used this shaver for only a couple of months after using (2) cheap Panasonics over the last 10 years. The Braun shaves closely and handles 2-day-long stubble pretty well. It takes twice as long and still can't get some neck stubble, but that seems normal for a foil shaver. Maintenance is easy. Rinse under hot water, rinse with liquid hand soap once in a while, and apply some oil to the blades once in a while. The saver is heavy and has a big charger, but holds a charge quite well. The most annoying part is that the blades are far narrower than the foil. This makes shaving close to the ears and sideburns more difficult.
