What owners single out
Packaging and origin concerns raised by buyers (review 7) align with quality control issues that video reviewers may have flagged.
In their words
“I am 70 years old, I have used various foil shavers exclusively for my entire shaving life, and this Braun model is turning out to be the best ever. While it started out a bit hard on my skin, that irritation was to be expected after I changed from a different brand. The recommended modular head replacement (blade foil) is 18 months, but I ran mine for 23 months before a tiny pin hole in the foil ”

“Packaging:not good User Tips:item is okay Usage Experience:not yet to know This item very fast delivered but packaging is very bad. This Braun not from Germany but from China. Can use but not original from Germany. Still on testing progress. Will update again about this product!”
