Hello everyone, I need your help. My old shaver has just gone. I used Philips, and now want to try something new. What can you say about Braun or Remington? Or better to buy Philips? I found this good website, but want to hear your advices. Thanks for your replies.

Thick, just as Gel has mentioned wrong Forum, but got to answer this one - Dave
I worked for the Gillette Co. in the UK & Berlin which owns Braun for 38 years designing, developing and manufacturing Wet Razors. After retiring the βAgeβ thing kicked in and when I shave (not often) for convenience I use an Electric Braun 7 Series which I find great.

I have a Braun - in fact I have three! (Don't ask!)

I now use a Braun 5 series having used a Phillips Phillyshave for years. The Braun is good, but it took some getting used to after using a 3 head shaver

Philips 3000 series, good value. I have tried other makes but always return to Philips. Great for quick charging and good battery life.

I have to say I'm impressed by the longevity of the battery in my Braun 5610. I don't have a record of when I bought it but Gmail tells me I bought replacement cutters and/or foils in 2006, 2008, 2012 and 2020 and so it must be at least 16 years old - but the battery still keeps at least a 2 week charge. And you can still get spares!
