Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community Mar 24, 2008
Pros: Price, pretty clean shave, comfortable, durable, water-proof
Cons: it misses hair
Summary: Introduction Trying to find the right kind of electric shaver that will do a great work is very tough because there are a lot of different brands on every store's shelf and to make things more complicated each brand like Braun, Norelco and ... read more

Pros: good close shave, trimmer works well, holds charge, can shave even if battery is dead
Cons: A bit expensive, if you wash- use oil
Summary: During the course of a few years, men go through a few razors. I generally have always preferred Remington or Norelco for electric razors. A few months ago, however, I decided it was time to ditch the previous razor and try something new. And there ... read more

Pros: Cheap easy to use
Cons: Not that good of a shave
Summary: The Braun 1775 is a cheap shaver. It is ok for the money that you pay for it but it still is not that effective. When I use it I miss spots all the time and miss single hairs all over the place. For me it is easer to use a normal razor. I got the ... read more

Pros: Inexpensive, great battery life, works while plugged in, can get wet.
Cons: It takes a long time to get certain spots. Noisy.
Summary: When I shave with a real blade, even a brand new "mach-3", I get ingrown hairs all over my neck. This razor was the least expensive I could find. It takes a lot of massaging and persistence to get some spots, especially on my neck, but I've never had ... read more

Pros: Cheep.
Cons: Cheep quality, didn't shave, took 30 mins for crumby shave.
Summary: I got the Braun FreeControl electric shaver as a Christmas gift in 2007. I had mentioned to my wife that I would like to try an electric shaver again after having a late morning running to the office without shaving and having to return to get the job ... read more

Pros: Good beard trimmer. Easy to clean. Close shave all round.
Cons: Usual battery fatigue that all battery shavers get.
Summary: I've used foil shavers for 30 years so consider myself very qualified to say that this is the second best shave I've ever had (only beaten by a cheap mains-only shaver I had some years ago). It is certainly the best mains/battery shave I've ever had. ... read more

Pros: Inexpensive, nice quality shave. Wet/dry shaving. Quick charge. Long battery life.
Cons: None.
Summary: Let me preface this review by saying that you'll never match the close shave of a straight razor. I've owned several different brands of electric razors over the years and some work better than others but none were as quick and effective as a straight ... read more

Pros: Smooth against the skin while shaving, inexpensive.
Cons: Missed spots, had to go over spots repeatedly, not a close enough shave.
Summary: I bought this electric razor at a local retail store (for about $30) because it has good reviews around the net and in a consumer magazine. The price performance ratio seemed too good to be true, and unfortunately is was. Whats in the package? ... read more

Pros: Gives a great shave above the jaw bone.
Cons: If you need to shave the neck area look else where.
Summary: For the price it is ok. I would not buy it again though. Does hold a good charge and easy to clean. Is user friendly. Should use a pre

Pros: Can be used corded or cordless, can be rinsed clean under the tap
Cons: Cutter block wears out fast!
Trimmer pulls more hair than it cuts
Summary: I bought this shaver last summer and for the most part I've only used it once a week since then. The cutter block is already as dull as wood and the trimmer doesn't work with a damn either! My next shaver will definitely not be a Braun.

Pros: cleaning,close shave,inexpensive
Cons: made in china
Summary: Over 30 years I have tried to find a electric shaver I could live with. Every time I tried to switch from a blade shave to electric I just hated fighting to get a close shave. The BrAun 1775 is the only electric shaver I have used that gives me a great

Pros: Charges Fast
Cons: Poor performance other than sideburn trimming.
Summary: I read with interest the review entitled "You Get What You Pay For". I was going to share the exact same experience. So close was our experience... it is scary. This Braun, recommended by CR as a Best Buy is the worst shaver I have ever used. I'm angry
