Buy It Somewhere Else November 1, 2008 1 out of 6 found this review helpful
2 days after I ordered this from Amazon, they dropped the price five dollars. I called them up for a price differential credit, which was refused by 2 customer service reps and their supervisors. They said that on September 1, 2008, Amazon had eliminated their 30 day price differential credit policy. When I asked where I could find this change detailed on their site (they have had this policy since Amazon opened), they said it wasn't there.
I wrote to Jeff Bezos. His assistant replied to me, and politely refused the $5 refund. I asked where the updated policy could be found, and was told that since there was no longer such a policy, no mention of it can be found on their website.
I suggest you buy this product from a merchant who is both more upfront about their policies, and more concerned with customer satisfaction, which sadly at one time would have been Amazon.
Great Value October 27, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
While the unit does run hot after a few minutes of use, I found that to be its' only flaw. It took about 3 weeks for my skin to get used to changing from a normal razor blade to this electric but now it shaves great. It isn't as close and I have to shave every day, but overall its a great time saver; I often shave during the drive in to work.
Braun Series 7-790cc October 27, 2008 Unbelievable electric razor. I received my razor this past Saturday, used it, and could not believe the shave---especially no burning of the neck. I used it again on Sunday, this time really going over the next area several times to see if I can experience the burning sensation once the water hit the neck area. Still no burning of the neck.
I have been using electric razors for the past 30 years, Braun and Norelco, and I buy a new model every two to three years; and I can honestly say the Braun Series 7- 790cc is definitely the best. I can vouch for all of the positive reviews and also--I usually never spend more than $175 for an electric razor. The reason I did it this time because I used Bill Me Later. Now, I am thinking if I didn't have the BillMeLater program, I would have missed out on a FANTASTIC electric razor.
state of the art shaver October 25, 2008 This is my third braun shaver in the last 15 years. they just keep getting better. this one shaves very close and very fast. the only thing is, it seems to use the cleaning fluid a lot faster then the last model. You need to clean the unit every 3 or 4 shaves. I had to change the cartrige after a month and the old unit lasted twice as long... Waiting to see how long the cutter head lasts and costs to replace .... but its a AAA unit
beware October 13, 2008 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Beware of reviews which rate this product after using it for a short period of time. The razor itself works well, very close shave, on all lengths of hair. But in time things fall apart.
The construction is VERY flimsy. In the first week that I owned it, the lock that keeps the swivel head in place broke, permanently. Yes, it was under warranty and I could have exchanged it then, but I needed to travel, and it didn't seem "that" big of a deal. It's been annoying, but it doesn't affect the shave.
Now, a year on, the trimmer, which is meant to pop up when needed, and then snap back into place when you are not using it, is in a permanent "up" position and will not close. This means that the blades are vibrating and eating up more battery juice, causing users to charge more often.
I hate it when plastic is made to look like metal and doesn't perform in even the simplest manner! I think the entire device will likely begin to disintegrate in a few more months.
Braun should take care with the construction and give it the same attention that they give to the actual cutting edges.
Final analysis: shaves well, but destined to break apart, bit by bit. Not what one expects when paying this much money. I'm going back to Panasonic for my next purchase.
