Braun Series 9 PRO+ Electric Shaver, Shaving Kit with 5 Pro Shave Elements and ProComfort Head, SmartCare Center

I've recently upgraded to the Braun Series 9 PRO+ Electric Razor for Men, and it has transformed my shaving routine. This razor offers a top-notch experience with its advanced features and superior performance. Here are the key highlights that impressed me:### Exceptional Shaving PerformanceThe Braun Series 9 PRO+ is equipped with 5 Pro Shave Elements that work together seamlessly to provide an incredibly close and comfortable shave. The combination of these elements ensures that even the toughest and most stubborn hairs are efficiently captured and cut. My skin feels remarkably smooth after each shave, with no irritation or razor burn.### ProComfort TechnologyOne of the standout features of this razor is the Shave-Preparing ProComfort technology. It prepares the hair and skin before shaving, making the entire process much smoother and more comfortable. This is especially beneficial for those with sensitive skin, as it significantly reduces the risk of irritation.### Wet and Dry FunctionalityThe versatility of the Braun Series 9 PRO+ is another aspect worth mentioning. It can be used for both wet and dry shaving, allowing you to choose the method that best suits your preference and routine. Whether you prefer shaving with foam in the shower or a quick dry shave, this razor delivers excellent results in both scenarios.### Advanced Cleaning and Charging SystemThe included Clean & Charge station is a game-changer. It not only charges the razor but also cleans and lubricates it, ensuring optimal performance and hygiene. The cleaning process is straightforward and hassle-free, adding convenience to the overall experience.### Ergonomic DesignThe design of the Braun Series 9 PRO+ is sleek and ergonomic, fitting comfortably in hand and making it easy to maneuver around the contours of the face. The grip is secure, and the razor feels well-balanced, contributing to a more precise and controlled shave.### Long-Lasting Battery LifeThe battery life of this razor is impressive. A full charge provides up to 60 minutes of shaving time, which is more than sufficient for multiple shaves. Additionally, the quick charge feature is incredibly handy for those times when you need a last-minute shave and the battery is low.Overall, the Braun Series 9 PRO+ Electric Razor for Men is an outstanding product that delivers on its promises. It offers a premium shaving experience with its advanced technology, comfort, and convenience. I highly recommend this razor to anyone looking to elevate their grooming routine.

After using Panasonic razors for years, I decided to give the Braun Series 9 Pro Plus a try, as my old Panasonic just wasn't cutting it anymore (no pun intended!). With my thick beard, I had always needed to follow up my electric shave with a blade razor to get a close shave, but with this Braun razor, I no longer need to do that.The Series 9 Pro Plus does an amazing job on its own, providing a much closer shave than any of my previous Panasonics, including the Arc 5 model. Honestly, I wish I had found this razor sooner! It’s such a superior experience, and I’m no longer dependent on a blade razor.One of the features I’m most impressed by is the silicone head that you place on the razor before shaving. While I’m not entirely sure how it works, it definitely helps lift the hairs for an incredibly close shave.The only small downside is the instructions—they use pictures rather than written instructions, which I found a little confusing. But that’s a minor issue in the grand scheme of things.All in all, this razor deserves five stars for performance and comfort. If you’re looking for a high-quality electric razor that delivers a close shave without the hassle of blade shaving, this is it!

This is Braun’s top of the line electric shaver with all the accoutrements. One can buy a like, barebones model for $100 - $150 cheaper. I’d definitely consider that. The different packages are priced differently, but the shaver is the same.I’ve only used this shaver once on a 3-day beard. Prep the beard, washing the face with soap warm water. Dry the face. Shave. I haven’t tried the beard-prep attachment yet. Depending on usage, I will periodically clean the razor with the large, electrical device. Most of the time, cleaning the razor with just warm / hot water is all that’s needed.This is easily the best electric razor I’ve owned and used. Highly efficient - fewer passes, less time. No skin irritation whatsoever - a first. A definite BBS (baby bottom smooth) shave, on par with Gillette Mach 3 and Fusion razors, and double-edged (DE) razors (Henson + Astra blade). I have good experience with these alternative methods of shaving. The DE takes longer with oils and creams and occasional weepers; the Gillette is the fastest, with the same oils and creams; Braun, other than washing the face, is the simplest, and a close second in terms of efficiency/speed. Surprisingly, all three provide similar BBS shaves.I’ll retain and use all three methods. For 1 - 2 week travel, the Braun will be my main shaver, with Gillette as backup. As for the for daily shaves, the DE and the Braun will share the honors.The Braun head and blades are said to last up to two years - perhaps longer with intermittent use? As a retiree, I now usually shave every two days, sometimes up to four days. Time will tell how well this new Braun will hold up, but in my experience with other Brauns, I expect no issues.Value for money? My Henson Titanium cost $250, Simpson badger / synthetic brushes cost $100+, and creams / soaps, shave oils, alum bars are less costly, but still. Gillette blades are relatively costly, but last six to eight shaves on average. So when all is said and done, while the upfront cost of this Braun is hefty, it’s not outlandishly so. One can use cheap disposable multi blades, but the quality of the shave is noticeably inferior. In short, I’ve chosen my shaving methods. Now, my incremental cost is simply replacing blades, creams, and pre-shave oils, which are infrequent and less costly.Kudos to Braun for this elegant, highly efficient shaver!
