Braun Electric Razor for Men, M60b Mobile Electric Foil Shaver, Washable

The Braun Electric Razor has served me extremely well! This lightweight mobile razer uses 2 double A batteries, but those batteries last a LONG time. Additionally, it comes with a hidden brush for easy cleaning and folds up to be put away easily. After 3 of these razers, I've finally left a review, but I am extremely happy with the quality and usage for price. Keep in mind, this being my third, doesn't mean it didn't last. My previous two were lost while moving, so I had to replace it, and no other mobile razer works quiet like these. But I would say, each one lasted about 5-6 years before being lost. The Braun mobile electric razer is definitely a perfect product for the price and I would highly recommend anyone who needs clean shaves and shaves frequently.

Very cool easy to use and smooth on the skin trimmer. Works best at up keeping trip not for full shaving. So keep that in mind

Background: I bought this along with Panasonic ES-LT41-K Men's 3-Blade (Arc 3) Wet/Dry Rechargeable Electric Shaver with Nanotech Blades, Black/Silver so I don't have strong comparison. In the beginning I liked the BRAUN POCKET SHAVER,2xAA,CAP - WASHABLE, M60B little more because I felt it was cutting the hair much more closer. After 5 months of on and off use along with the Panasonic ES-LT41-K, I began to use lot less. Positive: + small & compact --> great for travel use + uses 2 AA battery, easy to replace. + gives very close shave + water proof Negative: - because it uses 2 AA, power isn't so great but it didn't bother me too much - perhaps shaves little too close Experience: In the beginning I liked the feeling of shaving very closely, but later I did not like so much because I have sensitive skin. Even after decent use it appears that I am getting "burns" with this razor, or that I am cutting too short than I should. I've use it in dry and wet condition. It works just fine in dry shave, although takes little longer and not as neat & clean. I shaved in shower with it and had no problem with water proof. Wet shave (also used shaving gel) gave much more clean shave. Conclusion: Never the less it doesn't come close to the great feeling I got as using the Panasonic ES-LT41-K. However, this is unfair comparison because Braun M60B is intended as travel shaver. And as a travel shaver, it performs its function as intended and I have no complaints. Just don't expect shaving experience from more expensive and high performing shaver or razor.

Just when I needed it because of its compact size and performance when I travel. Nice to have batteries instead of having to carry another charger.

I got this for my father since he was going on a trip and didn't want to take razors, Shaving cream et cetera with him. The only other time he had an electric razor was big and bulky. He was surprised at how small this was, But how well it worked , and how easy it was to hold and use. It' Saved him a lot of time, In shaving, And he said he got a great shave with no irritation , and it was very comfortable to hold. A great value for the money.

I have gone back and forth on electric razors for years between wanting one and backing off because of some review I saw. I like how close a regular razor works, and would even do a straight blade if I had the patience or the time, but when I saw this and how cheap it was, figured it was worth a try and I have been pleasantly surprised. A lot of the reviews out there are not setting the proper expectations for this product. It is a TRAVEL electric razor, not some high dollar 7 or 9 series Braun (at the time of writing this, they are pretty universally considered the industries best/standard). What can you expect when people compare a $17 razor to a $200+ razor? So with the right expectations, here are some things to note that I like and don't like (and a few comments): 1) It runs on AA batteries. Nothing worse than going on a trip and thinking "nah, I can avoid bringing the charging cable" only to have the built in battery die on you 3 days into the your 7 day trip. With this, pop into the hotel gift shop and grab a set of AA's and you're back in business. 2) This is an electric razor....DO NOT press it hard into your skin! Not only will you wear out the blades and guard, but you risk the razor cutting you. You glide it over your skin so the hairs can go in the guard and be cut by the blade. 3) The built in rotating cover and brush are handy so everything is in one unit while traveling. 4) For $17 (price when I bought it), while traveling if I need to cut weight for my bag or it breaks or it gets lost or forgotten, its not the end of the world. Yeah, it is annoying but I'm not going to let $17 affect my mood or ruin a trip. Taking my family to McDonald's for dinner costs more than that! Skip a meal or 2 like that and eat at your hotel/home and you can buy a replacement with the savings. 5) Don't expect this to be high dollar quality. It will last you awhile but if you use it daily for 6 months or more, you got your value out of it and go buy another one. The replacement blades and cleaning cartridges for the high end Brauns will cost you upwards of $60 a year or more on top of the $200 price tag of the unit...You could get 3 of these travel models for the cost of the maintenance of the 7 series in 12-18 months. And if one of these lasts you 6+ months...3 will last you 18+ months so you just saved yourself the $200 initiation fee to be in the 7 series club and still have an OK shave. 6) It does an OK job for a shave but you can't have a lot of growth so it is a daily use kind of a razor. If I miss a day, its easier to get back to the electric razor routine after using shaving cream and a manual razor for a day. My expectations were accurate for traveling and the convenience of being able to shave while I am going about my business with kids, work, etc which helps me get a few minutes more of sleep at night on those rough days. Not for a daily use product expecting an excellent smooth shave. If that's what you want, my bet is an electric razor is not for you. Remember to have the right expectations for the product and this turns out to be a good deal.

I mean it works but not as great as I would like it to. I have to go over the same area several times. I like it because it is small and easy to carry on trips. Plus it uses battery.

"I have an awful lot of Chinese products, including two Blackview cell phones and four network radios. However I think it's about time we get back to "Made in The USA". Had I known the Braun Electric Shaver was not made in the USA, I would not have purchased it. As to how good it works and how long it will last, that remains to be seen. If we want to keep our country strong, we need to Buy in America and Made in America. This should not detract from the quality of foreign made products. All that I have are of good quality and work well. It's just about time we lend a strong helping hand to the companies that make things in the USA." The above paragraph was written the first day I received the Braun battery operated shaver. Everything I said above is true, but I'd like to take a minute or two to update my comments. When I started using the shaver, I got a nick on the chin and discovered part of the foil had broken and it presented a sharp edge, rendering it unusable. I contacted Amazon and a very nice customer service representative helped me get the shaver boxed up for pickup by UPS and she sent me a replacement item. I'm happy to say that the shaver works excellently and will give you a nice clean shave. I haven't tried using it in the shower, but have now doubts you would get similiar results. Those are the reasons I choose to update my rating to 5 stars. Its a great shaver, but I still wish they would make it in the USA.

As a buyer of several products ranging from US$10 - US$50 of different kind of shavers, i am quite skeptical of most shavers below US$50 as most of it either nicks or cause redness/irritation. After trying this out for the first time, i am honestly quite impressed! I used it for my chin, then i proceeded to try on my underarm, and also my private areas. Overall, it is fantastic! Although i must say, before you use this product, ensure your body hair are trimmed. This item dont work well with long hair.

Perfecta para viajes. Funciona con pilas.

I bought this is a travel shaver, it was useless. Disappointed.

Si me gusto , muy practica y la uso para lo que es , rasurarme

Excelente rasuradora. Tengo 40 años usando esta marca. Estas rasuradoras han ido evolucionando y cada vez las han hecho mejores. La recomiendo!
