About this deal

I think I’ve settled on the Series 5 (5195cc) since it’s so similar to the Series 8. I’m just a little sad that it’s apparently not quite as good in terms of battery life, noise, and power/speed as the Series 8. Nevertheless I think the 5195cc would serve me well. Easy Clean System – Braun states the blades can be cleaned without removing the blade head. A user may run water through the whole shaver’s head, and then water runs through the bottom of the head with any shaving debris.

Thank you for your comment, I really appreciate it. While Panasonic shavers are in general easier to clean manually, in your case I think a Braun will be much better suited for the job. They’re superior to Panasonic when shaving curly/wiry hairs and are gentler to sensitive skin, especially during a dry shave. Also, Panasonic electric razors work best on short, straight hairs and shave really close, which in the case of curly facial hair can increase the odds of getting ingrown hairs and bumps. Please note that if you use shaving cream with your Series 5, you’llhave tomanually clean any lather or soap residues before placing the shaver into the cleaning station. I think the Series 5, regardless of which one you end up buying, will be a suitable choice for you. Just don’t expect to get a stellar shave right from the beginning, it may take a few weeks until you get the best out of it.You can of course opt for a solo model like 5140s/5145s and clean it manually, but I think the station is really handy for cleaning the shaver thoroughly a few times a month. Between the 5145s and 5147s, I would definitely go with the cheaper option — and you are correct, those are pretty much the only differences between them (they are identical performance-wise). If you have sensitive skin, the Series 5 would generally be a better choice than a Panasonic, be it an Arc 3 or even Arc 5. But again, even those will be a lot better than the ES-SA40 and cause much less irritation. Braun released different models in different versions of series 5 shavers. At the first release of Braun Series 5, Braun brought their shavers with 5xx numeric assertion (550s, 560s, 590cc). The first-generation shavers are not available on the market now. The second-generation Series 5 shavers were released with 50xx numeric assertion (5090cc, 5050cc) where very few are available.

The 5040s is a wet & dry electric shaver, while the 5030s can only be used for dry shaving. The latter will also work with the cord plugged in. Because of this limitation and the fact that pretty much all Braun shavers are fiddly to clean manually, the Series 5 is probably not the best option if you plan on shaving with cream or gel. The newer models that were introduced — 5197cc, 5190cc, 5195cc, 5147s, 5145s and 5140s —don’t really bring any significant improvements over the 50** shavers.As for maintenance, always wash the cassette (inside and out) after every use with warm tap water and every once in a while use some liquid soap for a thorough cleaning. Also, once a week make sure to apply a drop of lubricant on each foil (you can use sewing machine oil, clipper oil or a spray lubricant for electric shavers). Here are all the details. Wet shaving only improved my results marginally, and since you must also clean and dry your shaver manually before using the station (foam/lather can clog it), I tend to recommend Braun shavers for dry shaving. You can of course shave in the shower with a wet/dry model without gel. Braun Series 5 electric shaver for men makes shaving easy with 3 Flexible Blades that adapt to your facial contours. The EasyClean system delivers a fast and easy cleaning without removing the shaver head. So as far as performance is concerned, all the current Series 5 models are identical. Choosing one particular shaver should simply come down to the following factors:

As mentioned previously, using a Series 5 with shaving cream will always imply a manual cleaning, even in the case of the recently released wet & dry models that include the cleaning station. Between the Series 3 and 5, the latter is by far the better shaver. It is superior in every way and it shaves a lot better than the price difference might suggest. That MicroComb technology of the Series 3 simply refers to the middle trimmer that should capture longer hairs. However, the one on the Series 5 is a lot better. Braun 5145s is a 3 rd generation Braun Series 5 existing model that has been altered from the Braun 5030s model. The 5030s is a 2 nd generation existing model that is not available on the market now. The Braun 5145s is the successor model of the Braun 5040s where there are very few dealers at present who sell the 5040s.Let’s not take a look at the differences between some of the more popular Series 5 models. Braun Series 5 5090cc vs 5040s In my opinion the Series 5 5090cc/5190cc/5195cc are probably the best option for most users; they come with the full-fledged cleaning station and are usually priced right. I really love using a pop-up trimmer, so isn’t sure if the slide version of series 3 will be comfortable It’s a foil type shaver that works in straight and forth passes over the face like other foil type shavers. Before the first use, plug your shaver for recharging the battery and do not unplug it before 2 hours although the battery is already recharged (it will take only 1 hour for a full charge from the next recharge). This process will make your battery healthier and keep the battery duration consistent. After unplugging the shaver be prepared for your shave and start the power button. You’ll easily find the power button at the front of the shaver that is coated with rubber for soft touch use. After starting the power, pass the shaver like other foil shavers. You can use water, foam, gel or soap to have wet and refreshing shaves since all the new generation Series 5 shavers are wet/dry featured.
