Braun Pulsonic 760cc Electric Shaver

Pros: Fast and very clean shave. Self-cleaning.  Comfortable to use. Adapts to worldwide power.
Cons: Must buy cleaning refills.  Base is bulky.  Automatic cleaning makes noise.

The 700 series shaver is Braun's top of the line group.  There exists the 760cc and the 790cc models.  This review targets the 760cc.  The differences between the 760cc and the 790cc are fairly minor, and include: The 790cc has an LCD ...

Pros: Closeness of shave. Automatic cleaning. Comfortable shave.
Cons: High initial price. Relatively loud noise. Cleaning cannisters have to be replaced regularily.

Got this for half price  during a xmas promotion. I previously used a rotary shaver all my life. After buying the latest and most expensive rotary shaver last year I wasn't impressed anymore with the closeness especially for the price I paid. Heres ...

Pros: Long battery life.
Close shave.
Comfortable.
Excellent pivoting.
Money savings on blades etc..
Cons: Initial expense.
Comes with cleaning machine-Use the manual cleaning guidelines.

I've been shaving with a blade for 20 years and will not compare this razor to blade shaving because NO shaver will shave as close as a blade,I don't care what you have.
 I also do not use the cleaning apparatus that comes with this Braun because I'm not giving up counter space or paying for extra cleaning fluid.
 This unit gives a close shave and has a battery life of about 10 days-no joke,I brought this on an 8 day cruise and used it for 2 days after that! I'm a thick growth guy - No Leo DiCaprio fuzz. My shaves with this take three minutes,so I use it on the john and kill 2 birds with one stone.
 I clean it by tapping the cartridge and running under water.
If You go out on a Friday night,You'll need to shave again but this unit has POWER. I just wish Braun would make batteries for cell phones.Very Happy and not going back to blades.

Pros: It's a razor.
Cons: Poor shaves, cut hair spillage, cartridges, bulky charger/cleaning stand, and poor design.

1- Must buy, use, and replace cleaner way too often - otherwise have to look at a solid red light stating cleaner cartridge is empty.
2- Cleaning shaver by faucet doesn't register on the "clean meter" on shaver.
3- Cut hairs are not contained in the razor casing and spill out on to sink, shirt, etc. ensuring that every shaving experience is a mess waiting to be cleaned up.
4- Terrible at trimming hairs on neck and under chin.
5- Over priced.
6- Charger stand is bulky and over designed with too many useless lights.
7- Cleaning liquid can spill easily if moving the charger.
8- No case for cord when traveling.
9- Noisy
10- Breaks almost all of Dieter Rams' design rules!  How one can miss the golden age of Braun and his ID magic.

Pros: The best shave on the market.
Quality feeling rubber handle for excelent grip.
Zero iritation.
Cons: No LCD display.

I upgraded to this from the 360. I found the handle to be far to large on the 360 but a good shave. The 760 is faultless in the shaving department. I initially had concerns that it would be loud but not so. On par with all other shavers for noise. It cuts extremely close, and with a little technique can offer shaves as good as a normal blade shave. It even picks up the flat hairs on the middle of my neck.
