Braun Syncro 7526 Electric Shaver

Pros: Gives a very close shave, minimal skin irritation. Rechargeable, self-cleaning, attractive, and functional.
Cons: It's not cheap. (But then, that could be a pro as well as a con!)

In June, a few years ago (not certain which), I was watching TV, when I saw a commercial for the Braun Syncro 7526 electric shaver. Now I'll admit, I was very interested. What I didn't know was, my wife was watching me. Looking for clues for the ...

Pros: Cleans itself, learns your shaving habits and charges the battery accordingly.
Cons: Pricey, but the 'neat toy' factor balances this out for the better.

I have to be honest. I bought something because of a commercial I saw on TV...the Braun Synchro System 7526 electric razor. I was pretty impressed with how this razor supposedly cleaned itself, plus I found a pretty decent price on it at Wal-Mart. It...

Pros: Light, close shave, self-cleaning.
Cons: Need to have spare cleaning cartridges on hand.

Hi, everyone. This is the first review I have posted on Epinions, so bear with me. A bit of caution...this is very long. Sorry. I will get better as I write more :) BACKGROUND: I am 36 years old and have been using electric razors for the last ...

Pros: Best electric shave, comfy & fast, self-cleaning, nice pop-up trimmer
Cons: Dumps trimmings on your chest, foils go bad fast on heavy beards

I have a very heavy beard but sensitive skin. You too? Read on... I hope this is helpful. I started out shaving with a razor years ago. But that irritated my skin, and I didn't have that much time before school & work to commit to shaving. I got a ...

Pros: Closest shave I've ever had. Well worth the money.
Cons: Cleaner/charger is large and somewhat noisy when cleaning.

I received this razor as a gift approximately one month ago, and this has been the best shaving month I have experienced in the 15 odd years that I have been shaving.

Upon initial use the razor takes some getting used to. Neck hairs were very...

Pros: does not irritate my skin, close shave, low maintenance, its long battery life, portable
Cons: It costs 110 dollars ,the self-cleaning is a little noisy

I can't compare the Braun Synco 7526 Electric Shaver to any other shaver's, since it is my first and hopefully last electric shaver. I can compare the shaver to disposable razors and all of the Mach razor's. I've been in the Air Force for 10 ...

Pros: Very comfortable, much better than 2 rotary shavers I've used. Seems well built.
Cons: Expensive (without a great sale). Also expensive to keep buying the cleaning fluid. Noisy.

***Update after 11 months use*** My experience with the shaver continues to be positive, and my comments in the 6 month update still hold. I replaced the foil on the shaver head about 2 months ago, not because it wore out, but because I had dropped ...

Pros: Excellent shave, self-cleaning, holds a charge for a while.
Cons: A bit heavy, self-cleaning unit is large, and it's going to cost me.

I swore off Braun electric razors a couple of years ago when I had two in a row that had batteries that stopped working completely. Then my Norelco started having motor problems, so I did some checking here on the other Syncro Self-Cleaning razors, and...

Pros: Good Shave, Quick and easy, self cleaning
Cons: Its not a real razor

As far as electric razors go, I believe that this is one of the best. But no electric razor can match the closeness of a straight razor shave. That being said, using the Braun Syncro is certainly faster and easier than using my hot and foamy and breaking...

Pros: Close, comfortable shave, easy to use and clean. Excellent ergonomics and indicators.
Cons: None so far!

I've gone through so many electric razors it's not funny. I owned two Panasonic wet/dry shavers that would secrete a black/rust soup after using them in the shower and gave out after about a year of regular use (just over the warranty period). Before...

Pros: Works well for the first three months.
Cons: Quickly loses its effectiveness.

I have owned Braun shavers over the past 20 years and have been very pleased with their performance. The batteries usually gave out before the shaver ever did. That's why I was looking forward to the Braun 7526 when my 1-2-3 shaver finally wouldn't...

Pros: cleans well in areas it does shave, cuts sideburns nicely
Cons: very loud, missed a lot of spots, very harsh on normal to sensitive skin

After shopping around for about a month and reading reviews I decided to go with Braun 7526. I looked at everything from Remington to Norelco. The reviews made me choose this razor, despite the price ($129) since it was an Xmas present for my boyfriend. ...

Pros: Self cleanings, battery indicator, automatic refill alert
Cons: Does not offer the lcd display from the 7570

The Braun Syncro Shaver System 7526-SL offers everything the Braun 7570-SL offers, except the 7526-SL doesn’t provide the interactive LCD panel (giving data on charge status and maintenance). Instead, it offers a charging and low-charge indicator...

Pros: Excellent shave, left my face feeling really good. Self-cleaning worked well.
Cons: Unreliable, Expensive, self-cleaning mode is loud and long, cleaning modules are expensive, battery weak.

I am really disappointed in this shaver. I liked it a lot until it broke at 37 days. I see now there are lots of reconditioned ones and the guarantee is only for 30 days. Braun appears to neither care nor want to know about any problems. They have ...

Pros: Excellent shave, cleaning system works well. Quality feel & look.
Cons: Have to buy cleaning cartridges, can't rinse under the tap.

I recently exchanged a 6610 Free Glider for the 7526 after being disappointed with the 6610. Right away, I was very impressed with the shave quality of the 7526. This is the best electric shave I've had. I've had 4 Brauns previous to this (including the ...
