A shaver that automatically conditions your skin as you shave? Braun was the first to come up with this smart idea. The result is a smooth gliding shaver that sensitive skin will love. After a cartridge containing the conditioning solution is inserted into the bottom of the shaver, a slender applicator bar running parallel to the cutting foils releases the liquid as you shave. The Glide Control setting lets you choose between minimum and maximum release. Adding to the comfortable shave is the pivoting head equipped with two foils and a cutter that hug face and neck contours. The head can also be fixed in place if desired, and a trimmer pops up to define jaw lines and sideburns. Another convenient feature is the start/stop button. It can be depressed slightly and held for a quick touch-up shave, or depressed all the way and locked for a longer shave. Large hands will appreciate the girth of this shaver, which requires a thicker handle due to the cartridge system. Its high-tech design is quite distinctive, with a metallic-look top half that transitions into a translucent lower half, allowing solution levels to be monitored. Useable in corded or cordless mode, the shaver features an LED charging light, low charge indicator, one-hour complete recharge for 50 minutes of shaving time, and a handy five minute rapid charge for a quick shave. A deluxe travel case with two zippered compartments and mesh sides comes with the razor, along with six conditioner cartridges and a charging stand. A two-sided cleaning brush is also included, although the shaver can be easily rinsed clean under hot tap water. Because the conditioning solution is 90 percent alcohol and flammable, smoking near the shaver should be avoided. Braun covers the shaver with a 30-day money-back guarantee and a two-year warranty. --Ann Bieri

Rolls Royce of the electric shaver,
By "nprashanna" (Iselin, NJ United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Braun FreeGlider Deluxe Edition Men's Cordless Shaver
Oh My God.. This is the best shaver I have used so far. Soon after I first started shaving, my brother gave me Norelco shaver for my birthday (and it was about 3 years back). It was okay but somehow I could never shave good with that. Often got irritation and burning sensation everytime I used it. Then I finally decided to switch to razor, which I had been using since I found this little Braun toy. To be very honest, the razor was not bad either (Mach III turbo) and I was happy with it. But then I got Braun 7680 Syncro Smart shaver for christmas; which is supposedly "the best of Braun" BUT that wasnt good for me too. It was close enough but still was harsh on skin and gosh, on the fourth day the spring on the cradle broke and returned it. AND then I finally got this sweet thing, yes "Braun 6690 FreeGlider". It is REALLY awesome! The conditioner liquid is no joke, it gives you that cool sensation on your skin (and conditions too) .. I felt NO irritations at all. and shave was as close as MACHIII without the fuss of gel or foam. I think one of the the best parts of this shaver is the blades are not arranged in triangle. (That doesnt make sense to me). Being straing, it makes so much more sense. I can handle it better and with much more precision. Trimmer doest a flawless job too. Yeah, these days I have perfect sideburns and clean face (very important to make a mark on my job line) . Other thing I like very much is that the cradle is simple and relatively small, and not like "Braun 7680 Syncro Smart shavers" which took almost all my counter space on bathroom. Cradle on these are just perfect to hold it. And oh.. dont forget, you can wash its head with hot water everytime you shave and the blades cleans up in seconds... Talking about all its good part, i think there is something weird about this shaver too.. :( Its handle is little on the thicker side (to accomodate the conditioner cartridge inside it). If you have got a midget hands, i think you should go to local store and get a feel for it. A FINAL NOTE EVERYONE: If you are new to electric shaving, dont think ANY of the shavers will work miracle the first time. Give yourself and your beard and skin atleast 1 week before you start to really enjoy it!

FreeGlider Leave You Free From Pain!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Braun FreeGlider Deluxe Edition Men's Cordless Shaver
I have to say myself, after reading others review this product, I am very glad that I purchased this one. The directions say its takes two to three weeks to adjust. However, since I had such bad experiences with other shavers my face was not ready to experience such a clean shave with out any pain. In fact I decided to shave my mustache right off just too see if it would pull any whiskers out and it didn't! This product is worth the price! I was tired of spending lots of money on throw away blades. Not even the slightest of razor burn. It comes with a nice charger stand so you don't have to leave it laying on the bathroom counter and is very easy to clean! This is one electric razor you can't pass up!
