Excellent razor
5When 1st came to use it I hadn't shaved for a few days so it was having to handle more than just a little stubble. When this razor I was able to go from that length of facial hair to nearly clean shaven in 1 go. It didn't get all of those pesky harder to get areas in 1 go but it did pick them up the next day.

Good but not great
3It looks good and I was very impressed how quickly it cut 90% of the hairs definitely quicker than my current electric razor however it took ages to get the last 10%. Overall I was reasonably happy but if I bought this razor before my old model broke I would be disappointed.

Love this shaver
5Having used several different brands of electric shaver including a series 3 Braun which lasted several years before it gave up the ghost I was itching to give this new series 5 shaver a try to see how it compares. This shaver has worked brilliantly and gives a very good close shave with the minimum of effort and hassle, it is even much easier to clean as with the touch of a button the head pops open and as it’s a wet and dry shaver I can simply give it a rinse under the tap. It also charges up very quickly and lasts absolutely ages before needing to charge it back up again. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this device and have done so to friends who enquired asking how I got on with it, definitely recommend anyone gives it a try.

Braun series 5 wet or dry
4I am a Braun razor user so was excited to see how things have changed I have got a Braun series 7 but it is at least 8 years old. After unboxing this razor u can see and feel the quality of it. I left it on charge that day and didn't get a shave to give it a real hard job to do my beard grow fast am the sort of guy that needs a shave twice a day if I'm going out in the evening. So the next morning I had two days of stubble and I must say wow it made easy work of it if anything it worked better than my old series 7 razor does of it I had shaven in a matter of minutes. I have been using it for over a week now and it does a very good job every day this razor can be used for a wet shave but haven't tried it. Over all i would Deffo recommend this razor for the price which is a lot cheaper than my old series 7 razor it does a better.

Sensitive on my skin
4Using this every day has left my skin smooth and clear. The shaver is loader then the average and has a good weight. Long battery life and perfect rotating speed. To make this product even better I would recommend instructions in english. Design wise this shaver is sleek and easy to use. With a trimmer at the back and the ability to lock the head making shaving a breeze.

New Braun 5140s game changer
4Well having always being a lititle sceptical of foil type electric razors trying the Braun series 5 5140s is a bit of a game changer for me feels well built and designed well to fit into your hand with cutters between the 2 foils helps cut down longer hairs and the ability to lock the moving shaver head in place was a great help. took this with me to the USA for a 2 week tryout and didn't let me down great job even in the shower good job all round

New Braun Series 5 5140s review
4Thi is the second Braun electric razor I have tried and this has many good benefits from the previous one I had had. I very much like the fact that Li-Ion batteries have been fitted to this shaver which means a one hour charge gives a run time of about 50 minutes. This shaver can be charged from the charger or via the Clean and Charge Station.In the hand, the shaver feels comfortable and well balanced plus it incorporates a slide up precision trimmer – I like the fact the trimmer is part of the device rather than an attachment. The shave is both easy and comfortable. The “8D Flexhead” really does follow the contours of your face, the head pivots forward and back plus the foil head floats so there are two forces at work to accurately follow the contours of your face and neck.The motor power is continually adjusted several times a second via “AutoSense” - this is most noticeable when the shaver is used say, on your neck rather than your main growth on the sides of your face.

Braun Series 5 5140s
5Always concerned of the fact my face and ‘I’ have never got on with Electric Shavers previously, and have taken two weeks using the product to give an insight into my experience thus far. Started with a day’s growth, the 5140 performed really well, seemed to complete the job in super quick time with little effort or multiple passes across the face, and to my surprise with little after effect of rashes to the area, which normally ensues after shaving. So really pleased 1 to 2 days’ worth of growth it worked faultlessly. The real test came in week 2, decided to wait 5 days to give the shaver a thorough and stern test, it did take longer as expected as the neck area needed a lot of attention to clear any hair, but it still did a great job, the only downside and as expected was a little bit of shaving rash, which soon calmed down with a splash of cold water and some moisturiser. So far overall it’s been a delight using the Braun, I must say it’s well designed, charges quick, easy to clean, and above all does what you want from a shaver it works perfectly well in dry or wet conditions, and leaves you feeling smooth for the day ahead, perfect if you work in an environment that demands smart appearance. Which kind of matches the look and feel of the 5140 In the past I have been wary about purchasing electric shavers thinking they are too cumbersome, slow and overall a pain, when you can just pick up a razor. However using the Braun 5140 for the past 2 weeks has been a joy, I would highly recommend it, it’s converted me and it’s a great and easy start to each day, and if you’re really skilful you can shave and brush your teeth at the same time, that’s how easy this thing is to use! Don’t be hesitant give the Braun a go, you really won’t be disappointed, if you want a shaver that ticks all the boxes you will not be let down.

A Quality built Shaver
4The Braun series 5 wet and dry shaver is a good looking, quality built shaver. As with all men i took it straight from the box put the Braun on charge. The Braun has a stunning electric blue light which shows it is charging or is on. With the first shave it did not seem to follow the contours of your face. My fault not the Braun. A BIG TIP check out the instructions. After the first shave i read the instructions, By pushing a switch up on the front of the Braun this allows the head to tilt giving you a close shave with the head tilting to the shape of your face. The side burn trimmer is small but easy to use and gives a good cut. The Braun needs emptying after every use. The stubble collector is easy to release and a quick tap empties the collector after a dry shave. Overall a nice close shave. A little tricky under the nose and the Braun is loud

A shave to rave about...?
4Well yes actually. Having owned a Braun electric shaver since 2009 (My 1st) I was a little sceptical on how much better the newer generation of shavers would be. Looks & Feel: Opening the box the sleek design of the shaver gets a thumbs up, holding it in my hand for the first time feels very comfortable & light. Test Run: Quick charge overnight (Nice blue LED indicator to show battery life) & its ready for its first use. Switch on & I notice how quite it is compared to my old electric razor, yes still a hummmmming noise but is a fair bit quieter than my old one, I even managed to have a full shave with en-suite door open & not wake the beast #Fiancée LOL Touchdown, on to the skin & instantly after only one pass across my face the blades have cut my 3 day old stubble clean, evenly and with no fuss. Went over my face again going a bit slower this time to get the trickier semi-in growing hairs & that all I needed. My old razor I had to go over 3-4 times so the new one has also saved me a few minutes. Once finished quick rinse under warm water & its ready for the next outing. Summary: Overall very impressed only extra that I would like to have seen in the box is a small sample bottle of oil to lubricate the blades & travel case.
