So far I have a much more expensive (but also now about 7 year old) Braun Pulsonic USER.
First time anticipated shave he does.
He came in a handy box, which was however to speisung alimentation quite cumbersome, since it is probably intended for Disaplays and therefore a cardboard flap with the opener was still being processed. But the man should get this done without cancel what;)
Delivery completely and clearly.
Razor along with plastic protective cap, battery charger, a travel bag and brushes to clean.
So first unpacked everything and put the piece of time in hand.
Here already my first negative point. It feels kind of not good. For my taste it is to handle end to narrow and is thus uncertain in his hand.
The plastic acts mediocre to me. the edges and transitions in order and feel fit. only under the shaving head, where the case will probably Composite, significant joint edges can be seen and felt.
Regardless, once charge.
Charging goes quickly and supposedly the battery lasts up to 60 minutes. I have spent to date about 25 minutes without recharging and display promises me 3 of 4 bar. is sure hinkomen, so if you (n) times a week in the vacation travels must the charging cable is not necessarily with.
The contacts for the charging port are omitted quite large, because dirt accumulates sure like it, if you are not careful.
A backup for the on / off switch is present, so that it is not accidentally switched on (eg in the suitcase).
The shaving ...
The trimmer acts inappropriate and placed. I've used it once for Kotte Latvians, cut it does more or less.
The shaving head itself makes a massive impression. Three shaving foils and cutter bar for longer hair.
The head is easy to disassemble and does not affect all too cheap.
Easy to clean and replace it is definitely.
I particularly found the volume during shaving.
It is much quieter as my current shaver.
That was it but unfortunately, almost with the positive things on my part.
The first shave, dry, as I'm used to it, proceeded with mixed feelings.
It sounds very strange, such as the beard is cut. way they are nonetheless.
But unfortunately, only after repeated (at least 3-4 times) Drüber driving.
Since I was a little surprised, I know it from my old razor that reaches two times for a smooth skin.
This was reflected then the whole Rausur over so well again.
It took nearly twice as long and with two shaving heads.
Double shaving head number = double shaving time ?! Something is wrong heir.
Well, maybe a matter of practice, but the second time it was not much better.
But the worst and no-go for me: the whole stubble were distributed in the bathroom. not like I'm used to it in the sink. No, next, to the fittings on the shelf by the mirror cabinet ... it is a small hair spin, if you shave dry.
The repetition brought similar results.
To shave image.
First impression. Yes OK. Unfortunately no longer. it felt everything reasonably shaved. but the next day I had a feeling of growth was significantly advanced as usual to me.
This was confirmed then a few days later at the second shave also. Apparently, he does not cut as short as my house razor.
But I wanted him even give a chance, because he is supposed to be so suitable waterproof and also for wet shaving, I have tried it once with foam and water only.
With shaving foam was very nice. Very much smoother and also the next day still almost nothing to feel. However, the time required is in absolutely no relation to the result. It took me nearly 10 minutes since one but very very long takes, so that everything is shaved. Since rather just pick up the razor.
With water, it looked rather bad contrast. So in the shower to shave only when you want to drive the Wsaserrechnung into the air. Time you need certainly so able as with foam, so that all are eliminated stubble and shaving is not much better. So either dry, or not at all.
Advantage in both methods, no stubble throughout Bad)
Cleaning is fairly easy since the parts are easily accessible and can be washed and dried with water (cold) easy without the part to break down for 5 minutes.
Dry shave with the RF31 separates me from the reasons mentioned above but against my old model.
For the money (after all, only 67) the shaver is indeed quite ok, but I would still give it back.
It just does not meet my expectations of an electric razor.
Somehow my getting on in years (though even then much more expensive) Braun Pulsonic Series 7 the better on the whole.
I hope you made it easier for the decision to buy something :)
