Pros & Cons
Pros
Strong to cut hair easily, yet gentle on skin. There were no shaving injuries whatsoever. Good shaver and easy to clean. Closer shave than any razor i have had in several years.
Braun replacement heads seem like great values ($30-40, $30 for series 5), and not many people consider cost of replacement heads up-front. This thing is fantastic. Braun is best. Enter braun 5.
This is the best electric shaver i have ever owned. It is less noisy than the panasonic, gives a faster shave and the battery lasts longer. The motor seems to have more strength than previous shavers. This new shaver puts the panasonic to shame.
Just keep it clean and lubricated. Doesn't even have to get out of his easy chair lol. It seems to clean easily by just tapping it.
Cons
It sounds like you cranked up a * eater. Stick with a razor or get something with more horsepower. Want to rplace it with a norelco.
It requires going over the same patch of skin 5, 6 even 10 times to remove stubble. If you do use it on 1-2 days of stubble the shave isn't very close. There is no separate beard it's a lie.

A very good, basic shaver for the price.
The braun is well worth the extra dollars.
Competitiveness
Braun s5 razor is clearly better than philips series 5000 .
Doesn't shave as well as my last old series 7, but for the money it does a good job and much better than the equivelant in pric... Read More
