The blurb says replace the foil every 18 months but I've had to replace it twice in less than a year due to tearing of the foil. I have two extra cutting blocks now. They should at least sell each of these parts seperately.

It works but I still get nipped and bleed even though I don't press hard. For the price the foil should be much stronger.

Yes the price is a little high. But I knew that before I bought the shaver. Shipping time was very fast and shipping cost was reasonable. I would have to say I can not complain about this product or the supplier. I am very happy with both. But I did my homework first.

Braun Activator 8595 Solo Shaver, Refurbished Review

Braun Activator 8595 Solo Shaver, Refurbished
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've been a user of Braun shavers for over 15 years and have owned about 5 different models. This isn't to say that the old ones didn't last... in fact, all but one of them still work. I traded up to better technology as Braun produced it.
But eventually, a tool is nearly perfected. The major leaps of technology start to slow and you find that there's really not much more to be done, save changing the appearance or marketing aims. The latest Braun 9595 Pulsonic shaver is a beautiful feat of engineering and looks the part for a place in the modern high tech world of today. But... beneath it all, it is really not much different from the 8595 Activator.
The 8595 has a reasonable running noise (slightly more so than the Norelco, but quieter than the 7000 series), effective cutting technology, excellent battery life, and the right balance of weight and grip. The LCD display shows you how long your shave is taking (and retains that, so you can see how long your last shave was), the total number of shaves performed with the unit, how much charge on the battery is left (which goes down to the minute once less than 10 minutes are available--quite accurate, too), and how much longer the shaver needs to be plugged in to achieve a full charge. It's definitely more useful than the less informative LED lights on lesser models.
Performance wise, the shaver works admirably. You do have to learn how to shave with an electric razor, though, in order to optimize the capability. With a little skill, you can get nearly as close as a blade. I find that I do with mine. And really, getting a shave that close without the danger of nicks and irritations is preferable to me.
One of the other key features of this model is the cleaning station improvement. The older 7000 series had this lock down arm that made the unit more bulky, but even worse an inner tab is prone to breakage after a year of use that makes it impossible to lock down the shaver. The 8000 series solved this design beautifully. And in essence, this is still the same basic cleaning station included with the 9595, aside from a few cosmetic upgrades.
NOTE: This particular unit is the shaver alone--no cleaning station. Although it is not essential to have it (you can indeed clean the razor just fine with a brush), it is a nice benefit. The Braun cleaning solution does indeed scour the blades super clean and leaves a fresh clean smell.
If you are considering the 9595, I'll tell you what the differences are: The 9595 obviously has an updated appearance. There is also an indicator that tells you when to change the shaving head cassette. Yes, "cassette", as the foil and cutter block are now molded into one unit. This recommendation is... well, not very accurate. I believe it is based on the shaving count, which is not representative of the total cutting time. If someone takes 2 minutes versus 5 minutes, then the shaving head change indicator will be premature. Also, the foil part may be perfectly fine... it is the cutter block which gets dull over time. On the 8595, you can replace just the cutter block. On "that auction site" you can find a seller who offers that cutter block for $10. That's a dramatic difference from the $50 you'll pay for the "cassette" you have to change on the 9595.
Also, you should know that the next model version, the 8995 360 Complete, is practically identical to the 8595 Activator, except for some very minor cosmetic differences and the "blade change" indicator. Otherwise, it is the same device. In fact, you can interchange the cleaning station and plug between the two models.
So, in my book, the 8595 is the best value shaver available from Braun.

Braun 7000-Series Syncro Shaver Replacement Foil & Cutter Set Review

Braun 7000-Series Syncro Shaver Replacement Foil and Cutter Set
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Braun will tell you that the foil and cutting head need to be replaced every 18 months, but I shaved much longer than that with the original cutting assembly, perhaps too long. Replacing was a snap, literally, and using the shaver after replacement with this new cutting assembly improved the shave from my Braun.
I was quite pleased that this foil has the updated hexagonal grid pattern rather than my old circular hole pattern in the original foil. This design does seem better at catching the facial hair for a closer shave.
The only thing I was disappointed in was the rather large S&H charge to send the cutter and foil set by mail. I think this company should do better at less packaging and a lower postal rate.

This is NOT the Braun 8000FC as indicated by the picture and on the invoice (if you buy). This is Braun's replacement #51S and it SUCKS! The cutter blade design has changed and it does not shave anywhere near as clean as the older design. I'd purchased these hoping to get the original design but was shipped the 51S. Just know and understand what you'll be receiving if you choose to buy!

Braun 7000 Series Syncro Pro / Syncro Replacement Combo Review

Braun 7000 Series Syncro Pro / Syncro Replacement Combo
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I purchased my Braun 7526 Syncro Shaver over a year ago and I have yet to replace the foil or cutter block.
My beard is not thick; however the individual hairs on my face are thick, so I need a good shaver to do a good job. Even though I have been shaving with the same foil and cutter block for a little over a year without any problems, there are a few tricks to make your foil and cutter block last longer. They are as follows:
1. Do not press down hard when shaving (it actually cuts better when you let up on the shaver).
2. Use a pre-shave lotion.
3. Do not use the "Clean and Charge" system after every shave. The alcohol in the refills tends to shorten the life of your foil.
4. Use the Clean and Charge system ONLY when it needs to be recharged. Other times clean your shaver by using the brushes it came with.
5. Reseal the clean and charge refill with the lid it came from after every time you use it. It will last you FAR LONGER. The alcohol dissipates when left open. This will save you a lot of money too!
6. If you must use a lubricant on your shaver, spray the foil and cutter foil with an aerosol spray cleaner like Remington Shaver Saver or some other lubricant.
If you follow some very simple techniques (as mentioned above), you can save a lot of money on refills, foils and cutter blocks.
Good luck!
November 2008 UPDATE:
I am STILL using the original foil and cutter block. I kid you NOT. I purchase 2 extra sets but I have yet to use them.

Braun Series 3 Combi 30B Foil and Cutter Replacement Pack (Formerly 4700,7000) Review

Braun Series 3 Combi 30B Foil and Cutter Replacement Pack (Formerly 4700,7000)
Average Reviews:

About 8 months ago I purchased this replacement cutter for my Braun 8585: Braun 8000 Activator Combi-Pack Foil and Cutterblock Replacement Parts for Braun's Activator Razor Models 8595 and 8585. As soon as I replaced the cutter and foil the razor started pulling whiskers when I shaved. It wasn't an every day occurrence, but if I skipped a day of shaving the next time I shaved it would hurt, as the razor pulled whisker after whisker. I also had more nicks too, something that was rare before.
I was thinking about replacing my years-old 8585 when I saw reviews that said this cutterblock and foil will end the whisker pulling. I figured buying this was cheaper than a new razor so I took a chance.
The cutterblock fit just fine in my 8585 and is the same size as the blade I replaced. The foil likewise fits perfectly, though the screen is a different design. The exterior plastic is a different color than my 8585 but I don't care about that...I just want a good shave.
I shaved a two-day's growth without a single pull, for the first time in 8 months. What a relief! The shave was closer too. My old razor cuts like it used to, so I don't need to get a new one.
If your 8000 series razor isn't cutting like it used to, give this a try.

I wish I could return this horrific foil. Having used the same Braun for over 3 years, I decided to "upgrade" to this foil from my original Activator 8000 series. What a mistake. I get razor burn every shave and the foil grabs my stubble making every shave extremely painful. The old foils didn't do this after 18 months of use! This does it after 18 seconds! I am writing Braun in the hopes they will swap it with an old style 8000. AVOID THESE!

Braun Shaver Series 1 Model 150 Review

Braun Shaver Series 1 Model 150
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Braun has a diverse line of shavers from budget shavers, such as this one, to state of the art, innovative products, such as the $200+ Braun Pulsonic Men's Shaver, Panasonic Vortex, Norelco Arcitec,
Braun Pulsonic Shaver
Budget shavers for cost conscious consumers are an important niche. With more and more 'blades/foils' (for example, the Panasonic Arc), simplicity of design still has its place.
I have tried numerous shavers by Remmington, Norelco, Panasonic, Braun, 3 generations of Panasonic Linear shavers and I currently use the Panasonic Arc Shaver (by the now defunct, Sharper Image).
What comes in the box:
Shaver
Foil guard
Plug
Brush
Lubricating solution
DESIGN:
The shaver is a no-frills shaver with a single floating foil and single 'blade'. A pull out trimmer is integrated in the back. The unit has a separate on and off button, and the only indicator light lets you know when it charges. The slim silver body is stylish and conservative. It fits comfortably in my medium sized hand.
The unit is charged utilizing a plug. There is no carrying case or charging base. However, a foil guard protects the button and foil. The guard is quite sturdy and stable. I prefer a shaver to have some sort of case - even cheap nylon. This is one of the first $50+ that I have owned that doesn't include a carrying case.
USE:
The foil flexes with the contour of your face and is able to cut around the most difficult area with ease (junction of my jaw and neck). The head is fixed and does not swivel or flex. It cuts remarkably close but not as close as a real conventional razor (on the first pass), or higher tiered shaver that incorporates a swiveling head. This shaver does surprisingly well for the the neck - which is a limitation of most, if not all electric shavers/razors.
My skin is sensitive to shaving and I find it leaves my skin soft with no irritation, burning or the sensation of having my facial hair pulled (unlike a Remington or 1st generation Norelco). One thing it does not do is cut my skin, unlike my old Remington Shaver.
The trimmer is precise and cuts a clean line.
MAINTENANCE:
Clean up allows you to rinse the blade (unplugged), and the instructions say not to use the unit until completely dry. I still prefer this method over 'self cleaning' solutions in a docking station, like a Remington electric shaver (costly, messy and inconvenient). A brush and oil are useful for getting out stubble. The manufacturer states that the blades last about 18 months (I would think that this would depend upon amount of usage and the coarseness of the user's hair).
NEGATIVES:
However, this is a noisy shaver (above the average noise) and even noisier as it cuts. This motor/drive system is perceivably weaker in strength when compared to high end/boutique models.
This is not a wet/dry shaver and is not submersible, nor usable in the shower. However, at this price point, many shavers are not submersible or self contained. After cleaning, it is recommended that the foil is kept separate from the body to facilitate drying.
Recharging is a big negative: 16 hours of the initial charge followed by 8 hours for subsequent charges. Having only experience with high end rechargeable shavers (i.e. 1 hour full charge and 5 minute quick charge in the flagship Braun Pulsonic), the recharge time is painfully long. Although, you would keep it plugged in, there are times when a long recharge time would be inconvenient (such as travel to another country or camping). There is approximately 20 minutes of shaving time giving you about a week for a daily 3 minute shave.
CONCLUSION:
This would make an good backup electric razor for short term travel, shaving the 5 o' clock shadow at work and daily use.
Overall, this is a solid performer for the price.
Above average noise and longer charging times are a big negative that keep me from giving it the full 5 stars.
However, don't just take my word for it. The company feels so strongly that you will be satisfied with this shaver that there is a 60 day money back guarantee. If you are unhappy with this unit, you can send it back for a full refund.
