Braun Free Control 1775 Men's Shaver

Like many others, I tried electric years ago, didn't like it, left stubble, gave up on them, used traditional razors for decades. Traditional shaving with a razor - soapy foamy scummy hairy mess to clean up and clog sinks, mirror fogs so you can't see what you're doing, hard to get spots - peach fuzz on back of ear as an example, hard to shave. Oh - and those never-stop-bleeding razor cuts. - and you're always running out of something. If it isn't razors, it's shaving cream.
Bottom line. Great product, good value. I used to "not see" how people used these things. Now I "don't see" why people still use manual blade shaving. I really can't see myself ever going back to a manual blade - ever. I'm a complete convert due to this Braun model. Of course, as always, your mileage may vary. You need to give your face about a month to get used to an electric. Not as close as a razor but close enough and much faster, a bit more economical, and less messy.

Greatt! It's an awesome smooth shave. I never thought it would be, considering all the bad press about razors vs electric. Maybe I was bad at regular shaving, but my skin feels smoother than ever. Also, the shaver looks super sleek. I love having it sit, and looking cool.

The only drawback is that my skin feels slightly irritated/itchy after I shave. Maybe it's because my skin isn't used to it or I'm not great with the razor yet.

OVERALL: GREAT BUY

Item arrived in a timely manner. I really like the shaver. It doesn't grab like the one I had years ago. For one of the cheeper shavers, it does an excellent job.

For $40.00, this is an excellent electric razor. It is comfortable and shaves very close. The trimmer is very good. The only bad thing I can say about this razor is that it is very loud. It works well on charge and with the cord attached. The washable head is a nice feature.

Why did I wait so long to replace my trusty Remington? The Braun has a great feel while using it, and does a terrific job, definitely a high-quality product. I'm still getting used to the trimmer; I have a beard and moustache, and the shape of the shaver is different from my previous one. I only looked at one shaver (trimmer a necessity), and feel that any more time looking would have been wasted.
