I bought this shaver less then 3 years ago and it just plain quit on me. Got hot during charging and motor wouldn't run at all. Took it to a recommended Braun repair person and he said the motor was burned out and not worth repairing. I paid over $150.00 for this junker and Braun gives no way to contact them on their WEB site. Have 2 much older (non-cleaning) Braun shavers and both work just fine. Repair person said this might have something to do with the wet cleaning used for this shaver....I wouldn't get another Braun like this if it was free.....

Braun 8585 Activator Self-Cleaning Shaving System
Bought this Shaver for a Christmas Gift.
My husband says:
Best electric shaver he ever had better than Norelco or Remington has owned both.
Comes with a nice travel case could be bit bigger.
Gives a close and comfortable shave.
Overall a great shaver.

It doesn't do a good job with the flat hair under my chin. It always leaves crumbs around my neck. I HATE that. I have to use the razor blade to get the hard spots. What a pain. I just bought the new Braun, we'll see how that works.

I purchased this razor for my husband last year for Christmas. He swore nothing would compare to his infamous Schick Quattro Disposable Razor. The downside, terrible in-grown hairs every week, ugh and 15 minutes to shave. Although he fought with me every step of the way, he finaly caved and tried it. After a few days he was hooked! He gets a super-close shave in half the time and the *huge* bonus, no more ingrown hairs. If you hae sensitive skin or know someone who does, this is the model for them. The self-cleaning option is wonderful and a big key to the success. I highly recommend this model, so much so, I picked one up for my father-in-law this Christmas.

I purchased the Braun several months ago and last weekend I packed my old Remington 3 head and went hunting. I got a MUCH closer shave with the old razor than I did with this OVERPRICED Braun.
Buying the braun was a BIG MISTAKE!!!
Save your money and buy something else. I wish I knew how to return this overrated piece of junk.
