--------------------
For shaving:
--------------------
The shaver operates high-quality finished and finds its rubber in wet hands enough footing. The blue is a little lighter than in the pictures, which affects the appearance but does not adversely affect in Natura.
The device is waterproof up to 1m to 100% and can be used under the shower with foam and gel.
Following von Braun shaver are also fully washable and wet useable under the shower:
- Braun Series 3 340s (70.99)
- Brown Cooltec CT4S (99,00)
- Braun Series 5 5040s-5 (119.77)
- Brown Cooltec CT5cc (149.90)
- Braun Series 7 740s-7 (159.00)
- Braun Series 7 799cc-7 (204.90)
------------------
The accumulator:
------------------
The battery is fully charged within about 1 hour, but it should reach a charge of 5 minutes for a shave. It should be noted that the shaver can not be used with an attached power cord, so only pure battery operation is possible (in a Wet & Dry shaver may be useful).
The LED display indicates the charging status in 2 stages. This is solved better with other Braun shavers, but should not be a big shortcoming.
---------------
The shaving head:
---------------
A particularly convenient feature I find the 33 ° flexible shaving head which adapts very well to the contours of the face, and so shaving much easier.
But should be noted that the Series 5 models 5040s-5, Series 7 740s-7 and Series 7 799cc-7 also have a pivoting shaving head.
The cutter blocks are held by a plug-in system in the shaver and can draw by simply be taken out of the shaving head (see my clients pictures). This facts and that the Water Flex can be washed without any problems, the cleaning very facilitate.
----------------
Now for hair:
----------------
Anticipating I must say that I have a less strong but still highly visible facial hair and have to shave every day. Unfortunately, I had always struggled with skin irritations.
-------------------
The dry shaving:
-------------------
When dry shave with the Waterflex I could considerably gentler and closer shave compared with the Series 3 shavers notice (I suspect also that the engine is a little stronger). By pivoting head can be otherwise "critical areas" such as the neck, chin and under the nose shave well.
With the shaving head can be even longer hair capture and shave well, but also the trimmer works very well.
-------------------------------------------------- ----
Wet shave (the shower and shaving cream):
-------------------------------------------------- ----
I've tried the shaver in the shower with and without foam and in face with foam.
I've noticed this is that he, with longer hair ungründlich works with shaving cream or wet and still remain hair. Even the dry trimmer works better than wet.
For shorter hair is not much difference in the thoroughness over the dry shaving can be seen in the wet shave my part.
I've also tried using the razor to shave the armpits in the shower, but what I failed miserably.
------------
My Conclusion:
------------
In my opinion, it is very suitable as a dry shaver and offers a thorough and gentle shave. I see in him, but no real alternative to the wet shave, would make him a friend but because it fully met my needs.
For the current Amazon price of 114.82 it lies approximately in the price range of 5 Series 5040s-5, here you have to decide for themselves what a razor rather suit you.
If you have further questions, I answer that like :-)
