The intercept shaving technology is situated between the two foils, allowing for a close shave. We tried Philips Norelco’s lower-end rotary models but determined that the brand’s 9000 series performed better, and it was so closely priced that it was a better buy for most Braun Series 5 people. In our experience, the 4000-series razor didn’t shave closely enough to be worth their bargain prices. However, one member of our test panel has been using a 4000-series model for years, and they still love it, even after trying much more expensive models.
Another great feature of the Remington F shaver is the technological innovation that is incorporated into its design. The Remington F foil shaver has “pivot and flexes” foil technology, meaning that the shaver head can swivel around, allowing it to glide over your face easily. A rotary shaver, in contrast, has three rotating discs that have razors that spin around to cut hair.
Of course, how often the foils of a shaver need to be replaced depends a lot on individual usage. If used minimally, for example, they can last much longer. Some users might find having the change the foils of a shaver to be an additional burden. As with most shavers, this product can also be used by women. However, Remington has a series of shavers that are specially designed for women. Many of the features do overlap, but the shavers that are catered towards women have softer color tones.
Combined, the two provide lubrication without a greasy feeling, so claims that they help an electric razor to glide are probably credible. Braun’s top-of-the-line electric razor offers the best shave—even for heavy beards—at a higher price. Braun’s Series 7 razors have been around in various forms for more than a decade, and they have built a reputation for producing close shaves, being durable, and providing convenience and value. The Series Philips Norelco Shaver 7 has been a perennial pick in many customer reviews and publications, including here at Wirecutter since 2015. It’s still our favorite razor, and it has become an even better choice because it’s significantly less expensive than it used to be. All Braun Series 7 models give consistently close, comfortable shaves.The 7071cc comes with the accessories we think most people want or need, including a cleaning system and carrying case.
Of course, it all depends on how much you’re willing to fork out for an everyday item like a shaver, but a good shaver can be a great investment. It is priced lower than more established shaver brands that offer products of a similar range, but users have found that it works just as well. This combination of quality and price is a huge plus point for this product. One of the best things about this shaver is that it is very effective in shaving hair – in other words, it does the job.
