Thoroughness shaving
I shave every day and have a lower face outline a three-day beard. Shaving with the Series 9 is pleasant. Positive strikes me that the shaver my stubble hair not painful coming away when touched, as from my razor of 5 series and makes time to time. However, the razor is not well with my beard hairs on the upper lip: I always need a lot of tests until a sufficient number of hair was shaved off. The trimmer is typically kept quite small with brown and to use more suitable for the trimming of contours.
In short: The shaving is pleasant, on the thoroughness I have, however, hoped for more.
Cleaning Station
It is in this razor to my first shaver with cleaning station. And I must say that I like it. Through them, the shaver has a firm place in the bathroom. The razor sits on his throne, and at the same time exudes a pleasant citrus scent.
The cleaning procedure takes a few minutes and after the shaving of fans is dried. This takes about half an hour and can be heard. Therefore, this procedure should be started when leaving the bathroom.
Since I have always put the shaver after use in the cleaning station, it does not come before that of the shaver battery is unexpectedly empty.
The cleaning liquid is sold in bottles and costs about 5 per cartridge. The cartridge I did not get empty during the trial period of one month in almost daily use. In everyday use, I would carry out the cleaning but only two to three times a week to increase the service life of a cartridge.
Look and feel
Of course, the Series 9 shaver from Braun has the typical shape of a Braun shaver. I like him very well and gets along with the cleaning station in my bathroom. The battery level indicator is in a beautiful blue and harmonizes with the blue Hyper Lift & Cut trimmer (the blue part of the shaving head).
The shaver is quite large, but fits comfortably in your hand. It weighs 217 grams and makes a high impression. The back is rubberized, so it will not slip out of one hand.
Sounds
The sound of the razor makes me a normal impression. It is neither loud nor conspicuously silent. In the cleaning station of the razor makes when cleaning its normal operating noise mixed with a flushing sound produced by the addition of cleaning fluid. I always start the cleaning when leaving the house, because I lay down the door from the bathroom open and the sounds of cleaning and subsequent ventilation does not want noticed. The ventilation is not loud. If I close the door, I would not listen to this.
Accessories
In addition to the cleaning station for the hospitalization of the razor in the bathroom, there is also a travel case for the razor. This looks very chic because it is not just a "bag" of the razor is, as is the case with the 5 Series.
Overall impression
Even if I have hopes of shaving more, me the razor like quite well. Especially the cleaning station I do not want to miss.
