Review: An Extremely Effective Shaver - I had not used an electric shaver for some time, but the need to shave regularly and sometimes on a busy schedule made one necessary for me when wet shaving feels like a luxury. The cost of decent wet shave blades these days is also monstrous. I have found this Series 3 to be a really excellent performer that keeps my facial hair well at bay and fits well into a mixed shave routine. Unlike older shavers, where the foil covered the blades that were attached to the shaver, the blades and the foil are all one unit and come off together. They are also replaceable - and may be cheaper (thank you desertcart) than buying a big pack of wet razor blades. You can brush your bristles out our run the head under a tap (I tend to dry shave with the Braun). Performance wise, the Braun deals excellently with my chin and lip hair; on the side of my face, I have to really slow down a bit to get a smoother shave on my back cheeks and around the neck. One thing to say is that I get no razor burn at all as I do have sensitive skin. If you facial hair is a bit longer, just go more slowly. The S3 has not hurt me at all yet and its head is good for 18 months (and that I imagine is if you use it more than I do as like I said, I mix shave). Ergonomically it is hard to drop - fits like a glove in my hand. The only downside is that sometimes when I take the clear plastic foil protector off, the foil/blade head comes off with it and if you have not cleaned it previously, your bristles and dead skin goes all over the place so don't grab the foil protector too hard! Battery life is very good indeed and the pull out side burn blade is also very useful too. All in all a very satisfying piece of kit that just does what it is supposed to do. And isn't that good news!! Highly recommended.
Review: Top Class Shaver for smooth clean shave - I had old one of these that finally died (recharch batt gone). So pleased to see exact same model still produced. No brainer to buy replacement. Really does give exceptionally smooth clean close shave and side trimmer is very handy for sideburns or just trimming down beard if not shaved for a while. And simple to wash under tap. Recharges fully in well under under hr. Not cheap but for performance is well worth it.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this shaver have a separate trimmer like the old 5612 had?**
A: Yes, it is on the reverse side of the Shaver, opposite the on/off switch.  I have found it to work well too. Derek

**Q: can you use this from the mains even if the battery is totally flat ?**
A: Despite the answers in the positive, this shaver DOES NOT RUN WHEN PLUGGED INTO THE A/C. You have to charge it for 5 minutes to get a quick shave if it is flat. Alternatively, take note of the charging LED on the razor. If it flashes red when you are turning the razor off, it needs charging before the next use.

**Q: can you stand in the shower and shave**
A: Yes. I have used it for years to wet shave at the sink. Occasionally I use it in the shower. I find it shaves well wet with shaving foam. I would NOT recommend gel as for me it seems to block up the shaver.

**Q: Does this shaver have a mains adapter**
A: Yes, of course it has a mains adapter! (Ignore those who say it doesn't!!) The current Amazon listing wrongly calls it a plug. The product photos show what it looks like. (April 2020)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works well.
*by B***E on 6 December 2023*

My son has been using another well know brand shaver for sometime and it finally gave up. I thought an ‘upgrade’ would be good, and thought a different brand might be a good try. On the previous one, the whole head moved, on this just the foils do. It's not too good at chowing straight into week long stubble as a previous brand we used. In fact, the results were pretty rough doing that, much longer time to shave and didn't do such a clean job. To combat this, I coax my son to try a different approach (he has autism, change isn't easy) - the compromise is to shave twice a week, just using the foils, but also using the trimmer (quite basic but functional) to help him take some of the thickness out (his beard grows very quickly). This is working well, despite the protests (did I say he doesn't like shaving?!). It is actually quite a nice and robust shaver, light weight and with decent foils and easy to clean. It's giving a better shave over all I think and great on his skin (not necessarily sensitive but prone to spots). If you're also a reluctant shaver and like to just do so once a week, you may wish to invest a bit more for something that will tackle that. If you like a beard there's a beard trimmer. No carry bag which is a shame. And you'll need a shaver adapter plug. The charge lasts well, and the charge level indicator means you’re not half way through a shave when it stops!
