What owners single out
The middle trimmer element that causes skin scraping and irritation (review 2) aligns with buyers' broader concern about skin comfort being the weakest aspect.
In their words
“Wow, this electric shaver from Braun is a beaut! It delivers one of the closest shaves I've ever had. It leaves my skin feeling so smooth! No razor burns, no nicks or cuts, no bumps and no stubble. Just a fine and clean shave every time! I'm left with that fresh from the barber type vibe after each use. The head glides and moves along with the shape of your face / neckhe precise trimmer allows me ”

“The shaver is just over a year old now and starting to fall apart. The push button just fell out and the blades are pretty worthless and cost a fortune. I have to continue to buy new blades since they dull so fast and it takes forever to shave. I called Braun about the button falling out and was told sorry the year warranty has worn out to buy another shaver.”
