[This review was submitted after receiving an incentive (coupon, discount, free sample, sweepstakes, contest with raffle etc).] This a great shaver that leaves your skin feeling really smooth and certainly removes all the hair even under your chin which for me with fair hair doesn't always work with electric shavers. It is very light and easy to manoeuvre and I've noticed aswell it isn't very noisy at all. Seems easy to clean and perhaps the only thing that is missing is a carry case for when you go away. All in all a great product.

[This review was submitted after receiving an incentive (coupon, discount, free sample, sweepstakes, contest with raffle etc).] I’ve used this once so far, and I’ve got to say it is very impressive. I’ve owned a few electric shavers before and they always promise a ‘close shave’ without really ever giving one, but this is by far the closest shave an electric has ever given me personally, although to be honest it’s not as smooth as when I wet shave using disposable razors, so may give it a go using shave gel next time and see if that gives better results. Nevertheless, still very happy with the closeness. The precision trimmer works very well too, giving a nice, perfect finish to my sideburns. I must also say that I was surprised at how quiet it was whilst using it, I was expecting it to be louder. Can’t comment on the battery as I’ve charged it up fully and used it once so far. I also found it extremely easy to clean after use, which is a bonus. Overall, I would recommend this to anyone, it really is a good piece of kit and comes in at a very reasonable and affordable price.

Was very eager and excited to receive this product as there is never a good body grooming shaver. But upon reading reviews, I was waiting in anticipation for this product. However, be known to my knowledge, the courier had not informed me of their attempts to deliver and so therefore sent the product back to sender. Very disappointed.

I've had several S3s where the precision trimmer flips up. On the S5 however, it is an attachment so when you want to use it, you have to take the main foil off and spill hair everywhere in order to attach it, which is no where near as convenient as the S3 which you could use whilst using the main shaver. It's also another thing to carry when travelling. It has a poorly fitting head cover which comes off in your bag, and again, spills hair over your clean clothes - not a problem the S3 had.

I am really impressed with this shaver it gives an extremely close shave and left my skin exceptionally smooth. It is easy to use and easy to clean afterwards. It comes with a handy blade protector and cleaning brush as well as a trimmer. The main drawback I found with the shaver is that it did take me a lot longer to shave compared to using my regular razor however as said before it does give a closer shave than my razor does. Overall I’m really impressed and would recommend to others.

Recently got the Brain shaved and it shaved well but the lack of options leave it well behind other options. You can clean shave and also have a trimmer to tidy us lines. With plenty of other products that do all this plus different grading options it’s left behind I’m afraid.

Braun shaver is a nice & small shaver so if your going on a weekend break or holiday its convenient. I found comfortable to hold & gives a clean shave leaving your face feeling nice n smooth. The good features that i like is after use its easy to clean, to store & has a Li'lon battery which is long lasting. No need to worry as you can use weather your face is wet or dry. My only downfall is the precision trimmer for me is not as sharp as other products out there.

This shaver is so fast and efficient, it definitely cut down the time I spend shaving every morning. In my case, the closeness was pretty good; in fact, it was better than expected with the three-blade shaving head. Build quality and ergonomics is nifty but I personally wish it was slighter smaller. Overall would recommend.

The Braun series 5...I was optimistic yet fully aware that this would not compare to the series 7 o 9 however thought the easy clean feature, if 'easy' enough could be a great introduction the the range. Unfortunately after running it under the tap for a while and trying to be thorough, it took a while to get the majority of the hairs out and there were still some left over. It actually seems easier to have a detachable head. The design is simplistic and unoffensive and the LED screen is a nice feature which is a positive however, whilst the product gives a close shave and it comfortable enough, I would prefer a more flexible head rather than the fixed head in the series 5. Overall a good value for money product but there is a significant step down form quality compared to the series 7.
