But the older Braun Series 5 models come with automatic cleaning station. The cleaning dock automatically cleans the shaver and charge along with. The solo models of the older Series 5 are also easy to clean. To clean the shaver head, just put it under the tab and start the power. You can remove the foil cassette to clean the inner blades. You can also use the provided cleaning brush with the older Series 5 shavers to clean instantly after dry shaves.
In some models of the Series 3, you’ll find that there is no movement in the shaving heads. Otherwise, they don’t stay in contact with the skin as well as other models. The shaving elements move independently from the one next to it. In some models, the head can also be locked into position for precision cuts.

Time to get my 12 year old Phillips shaver out of mothballs, Perfect shave. The only reason for updating to a Braun was that the Phillips shaver looked a bit worn. You might want to check out all other electric shaver reviews and buyer guides here. It’s not quite as easy as a shaver like the Skull Shaver Pit Bull. That is a shaver designed for head use, however, the Remington Shaver has its own pros over these shavers designed specifically for head shaving. 2 – 3 days – This was the ideal range and a lot easier, well……….two days was best.
Buyers are looking at paying more for shavers with a flexible head compared to this model. Bottom Line – A surprisingly close shave that performs well daily or every two-three days. Good for a shaver within its price range and does the job OK, with effort though. I shall also mention who the Braun Series 5 is best suited for. When cleaning the shaver head with water only use hot water and from time to time some liquid soap . The flexible shaving heads and pivoting shaving unit did their work as the razor glided over the jawline with little effort.
With most electric shavers including this Braun, up to 2 or 3 days is best, but I do like to push them a little at first for review purposes. Wet & Dry – Braun state this shaver is 100% waterproof and can be used in the shower or bath. They also state it can be used wet or dry and with shaving foam or gel. The Philips Norelco Shaver delivers with an electric shaver that works wet in the shower, with foam or gel, or dry. An eight-directional head adjusts to follow the contours of your head, and neck and jaw. The Series 3 and Series 5 are easy to care for on a daily basis.
My old series 5 is still working and actually is much lighter and faster and closer shave. I haven’t used an electric razor for over 20 years due to getting a rash from them and I bought this to give it a go. I think the bottom line overall from user reviews points toward it’s a good shaver, but not great. The most common complaint is how much effort has to be made and the time it takes to shave fully when users had quite a bit of growth. And as I have experienced some users mention how some hairs are just not picked up by the shaver. This does not apply to US and Canada models for users within the US and Canada.
