Gillette 1775 Dry Shaver

Good Razor

Strengths: Convenience of a razor, close enough shave, trimmer

Weaknesses: some long hairs left behind

Summary: This is a good razor with the price, plus I have the convenience of shaving without cream or water and dont have to stand in front of the sink. Blades of course gives closer shave, but I prefer convenience and shave daily. Sometimes it leaves longer hairs, I just use trimmer and its nice again. I also use trimmer for sideburns.

Braun 1775 Shaver

Strengths: Low cost, good battery life.

Weaknesses: Difficult to shave around chin with wide head.

Summary: This is my first foil shaver. I have used a Norelco 3-head shaver in the past, and prefer that to this shaver. But considering the low cost, this is still a good shaver for the money.

A cheap low-end Braun shaver

Strengths: It’s a Braun and it’s cheap

Weaknesses: None

Summary: There are basically two types of electric shavers: rotating heads such as Norelco and vibrating head such as Braun. I tried both. It is a matter of personal preference which type provides a better, close and comfortable shave. My experience is that nothing beats a razor shave.

I have been using Braun for more than 20 years. They are not cheap but they do last a long time. The top of the line Braun is now over $180 with all the fancy features. My previous Braun lasted seven years. I like the vibrating head and the close and comfortable shave. This unit is cheap and has all the features and functions that I (or anyone really) need. It is rechargeable; it does not have the fancy and expensive cleaning solution; the head is washable; it has an adjustable trim. Furthermore, it has a two year warranty. I hope this thing lasts.

Once again, this is a cheap model. Even though the foil and the head are replaceable, I might consider the disposal route because the combine cost of the two is more than the price of the unit.
