Braun Electrical Razor for Males, M90 Cellular Electrical Shaver, Precision Trimmer, Washable

Great Little Shaver
Amazon says I have bought this shaver several times now.That is over many of years, but that’s still embarrassing. I should be more careful, but it is my regular shaver, my travel shaver, and the shaver I carry in my “purse”. The problem is that when using it on-the-fly I drop it. Or, most recently, I lost it. (I think I set in on top of my suitcase at the airport and when the taxi pulled up I forgot it was there, rolled away with my bag, and it fell to the curb without my noticing. Not sure, but that’s my best guess.)Pros:- It works well.- Small.- Uses 2 AA cells, which are replaceable, so the whole shaver does not need to be replaced if the battery won’t hold a charge. And if the batteries are dead, swapping in good ones is faster than waiting for a charge.- Has a trimmer.- Has a real off switch, no phantom drain of the battery when it is supposed to be off.- Won’t switch on accidentally if it gets squeezed in your bag.- Foil is covered to protect it, and the cover stays attached so you won’t lose it.- Fairly tough for normal use, but don’t drop in the street while walking down the sidewalk shaving. (Yes, that’s me.)- Decent price.Cons:- There is a cleaning brush that has a parking place but isn’t that secure, it can get lost; but I never use it, I blow out the chaff myself and that seems good enough.- A bigger/better trimmer might be nice, but too big and it no longer works as a trimmer, so this is probably a stupid quibble.- Does not come with rechargeable battery nor a charger. But rechargeable AAs are available, and if you already have a charger (I do) that avoids yet another wall-wart power supply to keep track of.- A bigger, more powerful shaver might clear my face faster, but this one works well and small is a feature.I use quality rechargeable NiMH cells, and I charge them in a better charger than what might be built into a shaver. The result is they charge individually and never get overcharged, so I don’t ever *need* to replace them, because they keep holding a charge.The swinging thing that covers the shaving foil might seem silly, but it isn’t. It covers the foil, protecting it and it locks the switch from accidentally turning on. I could imagine a design that might be smaller, but the current size fits my hand pretty well, and the cover not being a loose item to misplace is a good thing.If I were traveling really light, and on a long trip, carrying spare AAs or carrying a charger might be too much. So that’s a consideration. I suppose I could buy disposables along the way, but I hate disposables.Good shaver, I keep buying them, not because they fail but because I keep losing them, or destroying them through abuse.Recommended.-kb

You do need to consider the price of this razor when judging the performance. For a $30 Braun razor is works great! I used it for 3 weeks traveling and it did a decent job of keeping my face clean shaven. Near the end of my trip I did need to use a disposable shaver to catch the longer hairs and got missed by the shaver. The size is perfect for traveling and fits nicely in a toiletry kit. The pivoting cover helps to protect the razor and ensures it doesn’t turn on while in your bag. I didn’t use the trimmer so I can’t comment on that, only that the trimmer is small. The batteries lasted the entire duration of my trip and I used the razor daily. It will not compare to a large multiheaded shaver that costs 3 times more than this Braun. For a compact, electric razor to be used traveling, it works great and for the price it is awesome.

Superou minhas expectativas.

No corta nada, la peor máquina que he tenido nunca.
