About Braun Electric Razor for Men, Series 5 5018s Electric Foil Shaver
Overall Feedback:
76% positive
85% were satisfied with the battery life, while 15% weren't
The battery life of this razor is fantastic. I can shave myself, my dogs, my cats and my guinea pigs and still have enough juice left over to mow the lawn. Plus, it charges super quick.
I have not had to recharge from the initial charge, so the battery life seems to be okay.
I'm not sure why it's worth $100 since my $20 razor is waterproof and has a great battery life.
86% liked the blade type, but 14% were disappointed
The replacement heads seemed to pull out whiskers instead of cutting them.
89% highlighted the cleaning and maintenance, but 11% faced issues
I have found the Braun shaver to be useful as it has two openings below the shaving head that can be rinsed out with water from the bathroom faucet. Upon removing the shaving head, I found it to be completely clean.
It is not easy to clean despite the new easy clean design.
86% appreciated its ergonomic design
I find this model very ergonomic, slim and fast in shaving off 2 or 3 day old hairs.
I appreciate the ergonomics and shape of the electric razor, specifically comparing it to the previous model and stating that it is much better.
I had to return my Remington razor because it did not meet my ergonomic and ease of use preferences. I purchased this Braun Series 5 razor which has met my expectations.
82% found the shaving head flexible, but 18% raised concerns
To use the electric razor, the trimmer head needs to be manually inserted and removed, which can eventually cause damage.
I expected the center cutter to be more effective on longer hairs, but it took a few passes.
