Braun Series 8 Electric Shaver for Men, with 4+1 Shaving Elements & Precision Long Hair Trimmer, 5in1 SmartCare Center, 8567cc Galvano Silver

Braun's second best shaver. Works every bit as well as their best, slightly less comfortable than their best. Competitors were 10%-50% higher. That Walmart offered and delivered next-day delivery is amazing. Amazon has two distribution centers closer and doesn't do that even with 'Prime'. Very impressive and will get more Walmart orders.

Ever since I started shaving, 50+ years ago, I've always considered it a chore. I never got the hang of using a disposable razor without creating a bloodbath. So, I turned to electric shavers. At the time my shaver of choice was Norelco. I had finally found an acceptable shave that was mostly comfortable and with few bloody nicks. Over the years, I've owned many Norelco models, most recently an i9000. I had tried Braun shavers a couple of times back when the cutting head was separate from the foil. Those shavers actually nicked me a bit more than my Norelco's did so, at the time, I never made the switch. But, recently, Philips redesigned the cutting heads, as they sometimes do; these new heads just do not provide a good shave. A good friend, also a life-long Norelco user, started using a Braun Series 9 a few years ago. It was a gift from his children. He's raved about it to me ever since. Finally, as a result of the Norelco cutter head redesign and at my friend's multiple urgings, I purchased a Norelco Series 8 about a month ago to try it out (I didn't want to spring for a Series 9). Wow. I'll never shave with a Norelco again and every day I'm wondering why I never made the switch sooner (probably due to inertia, and to my earlier experiences with Braun's before they had a head cassette). This Braun Series 8 delivers an extremely close, very comfortable shave like I've never had before. Finally, I no longer consider shaving a chore. Well done, Braun. You've converted me. No doubt, I'll be using Braun shavers for the remainder of my shaving years!
