Braun Shaver Series 5 550cc Price

I bought a Braun 370 last month and then a few days ago I saw the 550 on sale so I bought that one also. Both deliver a pretty good shave compared to the Panasonics I have been mainly using these past eight years. The Norelco triple head I bought last year gives a good shave also, but I really don’t like the triple heads that much—none seem to cut well on the neck hairs. In any event, altho the Braun 37 and 550 both give a good shave, I wonder what the designers were thinking when it came to the case and protection for the shave heads. The case hold the shaver and that’s it. There is no room for the power/charge cord, the oil bottle, or the brush. The supplied brush with the 370 is a joke it is so small and useless. The one with the 550 is really nice and useful. Now that I have two Brauns, I am wondering how I am supposed to transport them on trips if the cord, etc. do not fit in the nice hard case?? Certainly not together, it seems, unless I use duct tape or a large rubber band. And, to top it off, they no longer deem it necessary to protect the heads with a plastic cap. there is none supplied. You would think for the money Braun charges for these things they would at least design a case that held both the power cord and the razor!

Good quality shaver, good quality shave - Brent Nordick - Lehi, UT United States
I’ve been using rotary electric razors since I started shaving - several good reviews on this razor convinced me to give a foil model a try when my last rotary broke.

I’m really quite pleased. It took a few days to learn to shave with it, and for my face to get used to it. But now I’m getting a better shave than before, in about the same amount of time. When I started with this razor, I had to be careful to avoid small nicks, especially around my neck. But as I learn to shave correctly with this razor, those have largely gone away. (I think it is primarily an issue because I am so used to a rotary razor, not a foil model.

Overall, I am quite pleased with this razor. It gives a better shave than I’m used to getting, is easy to clean up, and to me is not really that noisy. I’m glad I decided to spend a little more money and get this model.

Nice product - Bill Rigsbee - Wilmington NC, United States
The shaver works well, but really doesn’t cut any better than my 6 year old Braun razor with a cutting block that was replaced ~3 years ago. I think that the expensive enhancements with the power comb in the Series 5 and the pulsonic technology in the Series 7 razors do not really help in making a faster or closer shave, but do add significantly to the price. I do not think the auto cleaner is worth it either as my razor cleans easily without having to buy the cleaner cartridges or keep that huge auto cleaner on the bathroom counter. I like how the Series 5 fits my hand and face though as compared to my old Braun, so I’m glad I made the upgrade.

disapointed - TM - Wichita, KS
I read all the reviews on line and was debating between the Braun 5-550 and the Panasonic Arc-4. I chose the Braun expecting to have a good shaver that works better (or at least as good) than the Remington foil I have. I was thoroughly disappointed. After many passes across face and neck I still couldn’t get a close shave. I needed to use my Remington to clean up where the Braun continued to miss. I returned the Braun and purchased the Panasonic and love it.
