Product Description

In the quest for a truly thorough shave, new Series 5 from Braun leaves no stone unturned. With a unique Power Comb that lifts and cuts hairs growing flat against the skin that otherwise would be missed. Series 5 provides smoothness as standard. Together with a slim, contour-adapting head that slides effortlessly into hard-to-reach areas and hand-friendly ergonomics for total control all over the face, Series 5 delivers a thorough shave all over the face, with no missed hairs. Sleek and sophisticated, Series 5 exists to give you a thoroughly smooth shave, with a combination of technical superiority and design excellence. Poised beneath Braun's microscopically thin Smart Foil, a unique Power Comb works in harmony with the hand's natural up-and-down linear movement to trap and cuts hairs that grow flat against the skin. They sure won't be missed. Grip-friendly ergonomics just cry out for a firm hand, allowing Series 5's slim, contour-adapting head to produce a thorough shave no matter what the facial terrain throws at it. Mean and clean, Series 5-550 is fully washable under running water. An integral, adjustable long hair trimmer for beard, moustache and sideburns and a choice of elegant color combinations completes the package.

This review is from: Braun Shaver Series 5 550cc (Health and Beauty)
The shaver works well, but really doesn't cut any better than my 6 year old Braun razor with a cutting block that was replaced ~3 years ago. I think that the expensive enhancements with the power comb in the Series 5 and the pulsonic technology in the Series 7 razors do not really help in making a faster or closer shave, but do add significantly to the price. I do not think the auto cleaner is worth it either as my razor cleans easily without having to buy the cleaner cartridges or keep that huge auto cleaner on the bathroom counter. I like how the Series 5 fits my hand and face though as compared to my old Braun, so I'm glad I made the upgrade.

This review is from: Braun Shaver Series 5 550cc (Health and Beauty)
I read all the reviews on line and was debating between the Braun 5-550 and the Panasonic Arc-4. I chose the Braun expecting to have a good shaver that works better (or at least as good) than the Remington foil I have. I was thoroughly disappointed. After many passes across face and neck I still couldn't get a close shave. I needed to use my Remington to clean up where the Braun continued to miss. I returned the Braun and purchased the Panasonic and love it.

This review is from: Braun Shaver Series 5 550cc (Health and Beauty)
Braun Shaver Series 5 550cc

Have now used this shaver for several weeks. Previously used a Norelco in the same quality category. The Braun treats my skin somewhat more harshly (just short of true irritation) and does not appear to cut any closer. Based on my 5 o'clock shadow it appears to give a slightly poorer shave.

I will keep trying to improve my results with the Braun but suspect that I will go back to a top of the line Norelco in a month or so.
