Electric Shaver for Men, Series 5 5150cs, Wet & Dry Razor, Turbo Shaving Mode, Foil Shaver, with Beard Trimmer, Body Groomer and Charging Stand, Blue

Before buying this shaver, I was put off by a few reviews that indicated a less than smooth shave. But, after looking over all of the options, this still seemed like the best option. I am glad I made this purchase beacuse the shaving experience has been perfect. I have a beard but like to keep the cheek areas and neck areas smooth. After 3 or 4 days, I can use the trimmer to cut down the stubble and then use the shaver to get a nice clean smooth shave. Switching from the trimmer to the shave head is simple and easy. Hairs do see to like to stick to the rubber parts of the shaver, but they and the heads can be easily cleaned by rinsing with water. The battery seems to last since I have not recharged it after using it for several months. The one down side is that the trimmer is not as effective at taking off the stubble as my last shaver was. But the shaver part does such a good job, that has not been a problem.

The shaver works very well & easy to keep clean.

The shave is good and relatively quick, but not great. In order to finish the shave to a smooth cut, I run a Harry’s blade shave over most of my face.

It is awesome! I bought the 5020s, which comes with a trimmer with 1, 2, 3, 5, 7 leveled plastic trim heads. The difference between options are (without the trimmers), (with plastic trimmers), and (metal trimmers, I believe). Before 5020, I used Braun Cruzer 3 and then Braun Cruzer 5 totaling about 15 years. I was looking for a shaver around 40-50 bucks but decided to go for the extra. I have been using it for month. I shave every other day, and shave it super clean (i.e. any feel of the tiniest beard is unacceptable for me). My cheeks are alright and easy to shave but my neck beard grows irregularly, in I, W, Z ways, it is crazy. Normally, I was using the razor to shave the 2 days old neck-beard, and then using the machine to make it smooth. So shaving was always a problem for me. 5020 is awesome because I almost don't use the razor at all anymore. It can shave my whole face with 95-98% perfectness. If you are a regular shaver, that should be more than enough; it is just my obsession to make it 100%. I can be totally fine if I am on a rush and leave it like that. Thus, it is absolutely perfect for my daily shaving. In my first use, I had a week old beard (my beard grows really fast with medium thickness). It pulled the hairs a couple of times, but I believe I wasn't adjusted yet. Using it just a bit slowly and gently was much better, then had no problem. Yesterday, I also used the trimmer part with 3 and 5 mm option to shave the sides of my head and it was better than my Braun BT3020 beard trimmer. Transition between the levels are pretty smooth and much better than my so-called barber/butcher's work. Another positive thing is that it creates just a little bit of beard dust, about 10% of the previous machines that I used. Cleaning the machine is much easier. Just put it under water. I opened the head and there was no beard dust at all. May be the only negative thing is that the machine is not elegant and easy to control. Both the handle and the head is pretty big and it feels bigger than it should feel on your face. Not a problem for me but, feels weird. I guess the upper series, 7 and 9, are slicker and feels better at hand, but do the cost/benefit analysis.

I just got this Braun Series 5 5050cs an hour ago. It came fully charged which was cool. I went in and tried it out and was overjoyed with the results. I've got an old Braun shaver that belonged to my Dad, it's beat up and held together with tape....but did a fair job but the battery was gone and had to stay plugged in. I also had a Norelco triple head rotary type shaver that runs very slow and doesn't cut worth a hoot. Both of them are now in the trash can. In just a couple minutes with my NEW Braun I had a super smooth shave. No irritation since I didn't have to work hard to get it done. Even with a good double edge disposable razor which I use in the shower, it's harder to get a smooth shave under my chin and around my neck. The only problem is that it got my whiskers down so low that it's going to be TWO days before I can shave again! You can't go wrong with this one. Only wish it had a travel case or bag of some type, but it does have a good protective cap for the shave heads so I can work it out. Extremely happy with this razor.

Below what I expected for foil face shaving and leaves me with bumps, ingrowns, and pulls my hair out, but this is my first electric razor, so that may be normal. The body and sensitive trimmer is great so I’m keeping it as I shave and trim my body hair and this does a great job with no cuts or nicks and I can use it on my whole body in the shower with no issue.

I am really pleased with this razor for the following reasons: 1) it works amazingly well as a body groomer, with multiple hair length options, including one for sensitive areas, 2) the charge lasts a long time and the rapid charger that's included recharges the unit very quickly, 3) it is reasonably priced and is of high quality, 4) for face shaving, it works just fine, although it is a little tricky trying to get those whiskers under your nose, where a more narrow razor head would be more effective. I am very pleased with this purchase and would buy again.

Original 2021 review: I have had this razor about 6 months. Was happy at first. It did seem to give a close shave but took a lot longer than my old Norelco shaver. Then it started to cause razor burn on my neck, getting progressively worse as well as not shaving as close as originally. 6 months in, it is pulling and taking off pieces of skin to the point where they bleed. Given I can do that with a cheap safety razor AND get a closer shave, I am very disappointed with this shaver. 2023 Update: Having launched on the quest to find a razor that didn't snag and burn, I did not like the result this shaver was giving me. Since this purchase, I have purchased a Panasonic that worked reasonably well. Still some burn, however. Online research yielded some suggestions and I ended up using razor oil to lube the heads and Cremo shaving cream. Much better performance from the Panasonic razor resulted. After a year, I thought I would try the Braun using the oil and Cremo. I must now apologize to Braun. Using these two preshave items has completely resolved any issues with the Braun and , in fact, the Braun gives a very satisfactory close shave with no burn or pulling. Who knew? If you are an old codger like me, electric razor shavers do not work as well as they did on the younger version of yourself. Oiling the heads and using the Cremo brand shave cream will definitely improve your shave. Update. so razor is approximately 2 yrs old. I didn't use it for about 12 months while I use the Panasonic. Found the razor oil solution and have been shaving with it for about 4 months now. Picked it up this morning and no power. Tried to charge and still no power after 30 minutes. Then I noticed water dripping out of the charge port. I have not dropped it, I rinsed the heads as directed under the faucet but it is advertised as waterproof. Supposedly you can shave with it in the shower. Very disappointed with this shaver to say the least.

ممتازة ومميزة

I've been using for two weeks now. I find it satisfactory. The backup is good cos it does not need to charge till now after initial charging. The handling is also comfortable, and shaving is quite smooth.

Very good machine

Daily shaving too easy Good shaver best buy

This is the best shaver for me. It provided a very clean shave (for my face shape) and the best feature was the ease of cleaning. I liked that the normal cleaning ritual was simply to run the shaver under the tap. Best of all, the price was very affordable and delivery was pronto. Super happy with the sleek shaver.
