Pros: Very close clean shave without cuts, pain or burn. Automatic cleaning unit included.
Cons: Each cleaning cartridge is extra money and one lasts about 30 cleanings.
The Bottom Line: If you can afford a high end top of the line shaver this is the one for you.

| poneyby's Full Review: Braun 8585 Electric Shaver |
I received this as a Christmas present, before this I was using a rotary shaver, I must say this is the nicest shaver I have ever used. I hated shaving because I could never get a nice clean smooth shave. With this I don't have any stubble and my face feels smooth. The first few times I used it it felt weird and my face was a little sore. Then I got used to suing it and I have no problems. You can get a much better and closer shave in my opinion with a foil shaver then a rotary. Its pivoting head moves up and down to get all those hard to get places. You can lock it in place also. It also has a really nice a long hair trimmer that shaves your sideburns and mustache very well.
It comes with a automatic cleaning and recharging unit. This is very nice addition. You pop in a cleaning cartridge in the bottom of the unit. You juts plug in the unit and place the shaver down in. It has indicator lights to let you know if your shaver needs intensive or regular cleaning. When you clean it lights let you know when its finished, it also charges it while it cleans. This takes about 30 minutes to complete. They recommend you to clean after each shave. You can also plug the units cord right into the shaver when it isn't charged.
