Electric Razor for Men, Series 9 Pro 9465cc Wet & Dry Electric Foil Shaver with ProLift Beard Trimmer, Cleaning & Charging SmartCare Center, Head Shavers for Bald Men, Noble Metal

It’s actually a step up from their last model, surprisingly. I no longer have stray hairs on my neck and it’s a really close shave, all while not giving me red bumps. The eternal quest for an electric shaver that does what it says has ended. Well almost, it doesn’t clear my face in one stroke like it says it does but this is by far the best shaver/razor I’ve ever used. +Close shave. Once you get used to how the different blades work (like using the bottom shaving surface instead of the top on your top lip) this is the closest shave I’ve ever had. My wife comments on it regularly when our mornings line up. +Comfort. I get red bumps from any blade and most shavers, not from this though. Pretty much from the first day it’s left my skin alone. I cannot put on ferulic acid for skin care for a few hours after or it stings, but not having red bumps and being able to go to town on my neck is awesome +No stray whiskers. The last model left a few whiskers mostly on my neck or sometimes along the sideburns that I would trim off with a pen shaver. This however catches all of them, whatever the redesign they nailed it. + Battery is amazing. I took it on a 2 week vacation and never had to charge it despite shaving the back of my neck every few days too. +Cleaning station work. The last model I had the cleaning station did not work well. It would stop randomly and plugged up with debris while cleaning the shaver. This just works. +Time saver. It’s easily the fastest way to shave. there’s no prep, few strokes, and the design makes it easy to get straight lines on side burns or neck line because the shaving surface is a flat line. I’d say in total it takes me about 5 minutes to cover my entire neck (including above my back) and face from start to finish. Plus there’s no cleaning, and the blade lasts forever. A cleaning cartridge lasts about a month. +Cost. Despite being expensive, for a high quality shave the shaver and blade last forever. My last model shaver from them still works fine but I wanted to see if this was better at catching stray whiskers, which it is. There are cheaper ways to shave, but it’s also surprisingly not the most expensive if you keep it for multiple years. I have a thick beard, with neck hairs going in different directions, and sensitive skin (red bumps) to shaving. If you don’t have those things or even one of them you might be able to get away with a cheaper shaver. I can’t, and I’m increidbly happy to have a shaver that does everything

I’ve tried a lot of electric shavers over the years, but this one truly stands out. It delivers an impressively close shave that rivals a traditional razor, but without any of the hassle—or the razor burn. Even on sensitive skin, it glides effortlessly and leaves my face smooth without any redness or irritation. What I love most is how quick and easy it is to use, especially on busy mornings. The design is ergonomic and the battery life is excellent, so it’s reliable and convenient. I was honestly surprised at how close the shave was for an electric model, and the comfort level is unbeatable. If you’re looking for a high-quality electric shaver that gives a clean finish without the sting, this is the one to get!

If you're someone who rocks a bald head and is tired of dealing with the hassle of a traditional razor, I highly recommend this Braun Razor. Having tried various products on the market, I can confidently say that this razor is a game-changer. Here's why: 1. Comfortable Shaving Experience: The Braun Series 9 Pro is designed with the utmost comfort in mind. The multiple cutting elements on the shaving head glide smoothly over the scalp, without causing any irritation or discomfort. Even with sensitive skin, I've never experienced any redness or razor burn after using this razor. 2. Efficient and Fast: This razor offers an incredibly close shave in a fraction of the time it takes with traditional razors. With its powerful motor and sharp blades, it effortlessly removes every hair on my head, leaving a smooth and impeccable finish. The precision trimmer attachment is also a great addition for shaping sideburns or detailing around the ears. 3. Wet & Dry Versatility: The Braun Series 9 Pro is 100% waterproof, allowing for both wet and dry shaves. This feature is particularly convenient when I'm in a hurry or prefer a quick dry shave. However, for a more luxurious experience, using shaving cream or gel with this razor works wonders, resulting in an even closer and smoother shave. 4. Long Battery Life: One of the highlights of this razor is its remarkable battery life. A full charge gives me weeks of shaving without having to worry about recharging. Even when the battery eventually starts to run low, a quick 5-minute charge provides enough power for one full shave, ensuring I'm never caught off guard. 5. Easy to Clean: The base station does a fantastic job of cleaning, drying, and charging all in one! 6. Durable Build: The Braun Razor feels solid in hand, and its build quality instills confidence in its longevity. Despite regular use, the razor has shown no sign of wearing down, and the blades have remained sharp. This is undoubtedly a long-term investment that will save you money on replacement parts in the long run. In conclusion, the Series 9 Pro is a top-notch grooming tool for bald heads and faces. Its performance, comfort, and versatility are unmatched. From its comfortable shave to its durable build and long-lasting battery, it's undoubtedly a fantastic investment. If you're looking for a razor that provides a flawlessly smooth shave every time, I highly recommend giving this one a try.

Expensive with all accessories, but I do recommend the package that includes the cleaning station. That said, the razor works well on my beard that has one or two days' growth, but is painful if I do not shave within three days: Pulls my whiskers -- not enough to bleed or cause irritation, but very uncomfortable. I've used this for almost seven months, the pulling is becoming worse, possibly due to blade wear (Braun claims up to 18 months before replacement, but that is, I feel, wildly optimistic). Braun also claims that this razor will efficiently shave a 7-day-old beard: I'd like to know what "efficiently" means. On my two-day-old beard, I have to make several passes through the heavier patches to get cleanly shaven -- not what I would call "efficient", but to be fair, how well the shaver performs in one or two passes probably depends upon the orientation of the whiskers (which, of course, is not the same in all facial areas). I would characterize my beard as "average", certainly not heavy (my beard is very dark, but I never have 5-o'clock shadow). Braun also touts the trimmer feature, but it is not noticeably different than (and works the same way as) other razors. Whether this would be a good choice for your beard -- what I say is read the reviews from multiple sources (not just Amazon), and then make a decision based upon those reviews. And, just as with any product, understand that the manufacturer's statements include a bit of hyperbole, and are designed to promote the sales of the product.

I’ve owned this shaver for over 7 months now and I love it, I shave my head and face with this mutable times a week, get a smooth shave and only minor irritation (only on my neck and MUCH better that other shavers/razors I’ve ever used). Longest I have gone is 5-6 days - takes a little longer but shaves it down. 1-2 days shaving face and head = 15 minutes 5-6 days shaving face and head = 25 minutes and this is where the irritation on my neck can come up. My only complaint is the trimmer, I wish it moved up a little higher when engaged, between that and the slight curve to it it is very hard to trim my mustache. The cleaning station is a huge time saver, take the head off, know some of the loose hairs out rinse it in the sink and put it on clean and it’s done in less than 5 minutes. Usually clean/charge it once per week. Edit 22Jul2025 - When I purchased this on Sept 2022 I was looking for long term reviews and could not find any. This shaver is still going strong, I just shaved my head and face this morning in 20 minutes, last shave was 6 days ago. Generally shave within 5 or 10 minutes every 2-3 days but it is nice to be able to go longer and not have to pull out the clippers. I am on my 3rd set of blades, replacing every 12 months or so and the cleaning station works well replacing the refills every 30-40 days. I usually shave dry, then take in the shower with me to rinse it out then clean and dry in the station. Very happy with this purchase.

I have own several other brands of electric shavers. I was tired of missed areas or painful nicks and burns. So after 20 years of numerous shavers I went for this expensive Braun series 9 and I wish I purchased this shaver years before. Gives me the best smooth and complete shave I have ever had. Easy to operate. Cleaning system is super nice way of keeping it in top form. Instruction manual skims what you need to know but luckily there are excellent YouTube videos showing everything you need to know. Looking for the best shaver? Then stop looking and buy this one. It will be the best purchase you ever made. I threw out every other shaver I purchased since this one is by far that good! Addendum: After just three weeks the change foil indicator came on. I cleaned it. Still on. Maybe 10 shaves so this makes no sense. Now the clean indicator is on again just after cleaning and refuses to reset. Check internet, there are others complaining about the same issue. It is issues like this which makes an expensive shaver not a good buy. Changed rating to one star. Nothing at this price should have these problems in less than a month. Very disappointed. Update October 15, 2022: This shaver no longer cuts like the first couple of weeks. Misses hairs. Very noisy shaver. Probably the loudest I have ever had. Cleaning module is also noisy but does clean it well. Tap water cleaning really does not work very well. I have ordered and received a new Norelco 3800 shaver which is quiet in comparison and nicely shaves what this way too expensive Braun misses. At this point I regret buying this shaver. The Norelco and Panasonic shavers are much better and less expensive. The 3800 Norelco gives a better shave than their more expensive models. Despite other reviews more expensive does not mean better. This shaver, in my opinion and over one month of use is a do not buy. I would prefer buying a new Norelco 3800 annually than deal with this Braun forever. When this cutting head needs replacement I will discard this shaver and never buy a Braun again! November 7, 2022 Update: When you think this shaver can not get worse, it does. Does not cut hair close or completely. Have to get the close shave by shaving after with my Norelco. Plus, half the hair comes out around the foil head. Very little goes inside. You have to wash it in the included washer after each use or at the most weekly. I can not wait for it to break so I can discard it. Have a Panasonic for backup. My advice is DO NOT BUY this shaver. Worst shaver I have ever owned. Waste on money! January 22, 2023 Update: Shaver is still working (unfortunately) but that is the only positive point. It no longer gives a close shave. I always have to follow up with another shaver to get a smooth skin shave thus it takes me 10-15 minutes to shave which is way to long. The cleaner is noisier than a mother-in-law at a Sunday meal. Does clean but check the cleaning solution as to when to change it out since there is no indicator as to when to change. You will know when to change since the solution will look disgusting. Still have not changed my mind about this shaver as being a DO NOT BUY. I wish it would break so I can move on to another shaver. Plan on a Panasonic shaver which I have owned before to replace this one. It was ten times better than this one.

This razor is the 4th in a series of Braun razors I've owned over my lifetime (also Norelco and Remington razors). This is the second series 9 razor and replaced one purchased in February 2020. I replaced the unit because of a few things: first the power switch got snagged and pulled away, because it was becoming noisy, the edge trimmer wasn't cutting as well and because the cost of a new cutting head was nearly 1/4 that of a new razor. Of note, after 5 years of daily use, mostly while traveling using battery power, there was never a decline in battery function or life. So with that background, now on to the review. I stayed with the Series 9, because I liked it the best of all Brauns I used. It was difficult to determine from the product description if the "PRO" designation really added anything, after all the cutting head looks identical to the standard series 9. The unit otherwise seems identical as well structurally and functionally. However, I do believe it cuts better. Six months in it still provides an excellent close shave without effort. I'm still on the original cutting head. I use the cleaning system daily (except when I, now rarely, travel away from home for a few days). My tough 70 yo beard is cut close without irritation and with little effort. For my beard I have found the razor works great on a daily growth up to a 3 day growth. I actually think the sweet spot is 2 days. Beyond 3 days you need to really give the razor time to chop thru the longer hairs, but it works great without lots of pulling. A few suggestions: (1) don't rush or push hard onto your face - let the razor slowly glide over the skin and you can hear when its done because you'll stop hearing it cut each beard hair as it is moved (2) there is no one best way to hold the razor and you'll end up using it turned one way and then flipped over for other parts of your face - this improves the closeness (3) use a quality pre-shave - this is essential and I highly recommend the Mennen AFTA Pre-electric Shave Lotion which you liberally apply then let evaporate a bit until you feel the skin slightly tighten - then have a great shave. I also use the AFTA After Shave as well. I've been using Mennen products my whole shaving life, as my father did as well, and can attest to their quality. One caveat: this unit came with the counter top cleaning system which seems to be nearly identical to the one with the 2020 razor, but I replaced the old one anyhow thinking Braun might have made an incremental improvement. The indicator lights work when they want to, but otherwise it cleans the razor well (so no stars off). But remember that this cleaning system is pretty critical (in my opinion) to keep the razor functioning, and much like printer toner cartridges, Braun has you by the beard hair by necessitating regular replacement of the cleaning solution cartridges. I get mine on a subscription cycle from Amazon and 4 cartidges cost me $24. How often you need to replace a cartridge depends, I usually get them every 5 months. But beware that they will require replacement even if you don't use the cleaning system much because the cleaning/lubricating solution is highly volatile and evaporates even if you don't use it. So you might as well use it and keep your razor in the best operating shape!! Lastly, when you purchase a new razor I'd also purchase a new cutting head for future use. After all, prices are only going up!!

A good shaver. Not as close as a blade but good for traveling and when wet shaving is not convenient. The instructions are a joke, however. It’s all done with pictures and you can lot guess specifically what they are trying to demonstrate. Fortunately, shaving is pretty simple.
