Braun Series 9 Pro 9467CC Wet & Dry Shaver with 5-in-1 SmartCare Center and Leather Travel Case, Silver. Made in Germany with Premium Craftsmanship

Nothing beats the Braun Series 9 for comfort and longevity. The closeness of shave is equivalent to a 2 blade and maybe a 3 blade manual shaver but the ability to quickly dry shave with an electric shaver that is comfortable to hold and pleasant to use is worth the money, especially for someone with sensitive skin.Reputable Barbers may own one of these units for doing fades or head hair removal. Some are still going after 7 years!Make sure to also check out the Panasonic Arc 5 also sold at PB tech. This one reportedly gets a closer shave but is not as comfortable and the noise is higher pitched. Watch YouTube videos to see the pro's and con's on these two heavyweight electric shavers.

So I bought this stupidly expensive electric shaver because I’d heard great things about the previous models. Shaving my head took a decent amount of time and I kept putting it off for this reason. Since I started using this - that’s a thing of the past. It shaves really close which was surprising - I’d say it’s about 98% as close as a wet razor shave. Nothing is gonna give you as smooth a finish as a wet shave going against the grain, but this comes pretty god damn close. Now I don’t even think twice if I need to get that scruff off. The only downside is the price. And the cleaning cartridges and replacement blades are an ongoing expense. The only question is whether you want to spend the money for the sake of convenience. Do I think I could’ve spent my money on a ... MoreSo I bought this stupidly expensive electric shaver because I’d heard great things about the previous models.

Amazing!

I previously owned the braun series 7 shaver and found that the 7 struggled around my neck and I had to use my normal razor to go over it after every use as it could not deal woth the contours of my neck. Moving up to the series 9 Pro I was eager to see if this issue would be eradicated. First let's talk about the series 9 pro. It comes in a very nice silver finish that looks and feels very premium, also included is a charger and cleaning unit which you pop the shaver in and it charges and cleans it all in one. There is a switch on the front so you can choose to have the head set in place or so it follows the contour of your face. On the back you can flick up a little trimmer for doing beard detail or straightening your side burns. The noise from the shaver is quite ... MoreI previously owned the braun series 7 shaver and found that the 7 struggled around my neck and I had to use my normal razor to go over it after every use as it could not deal woth the contours of my neck.

The noise from the shaver is quite loud so not good for using early mornings if others are sleeping. No on to the actual shave! Wow! Just wow! This is so much better than I was used to with the series 7! Close, smooth, fresh and not irratated skin or nicks. My neckline that I had previously had trouble with was a lot better. Not perfect but I didn't feel the need to grt my razor out to tidy it up. I am definitely very impressed and I have always said nothing will be as good as a close shave woth a razor but boy does this come close.

Braun Series 9 Pro Electric Shaver

The Braun Series 9 Pro is an all-round top tier electric shaver. The overall feel of the product is extremely well engineered, its ergonomic design feels great when shaving. I also liked its pivoting head, this gives and extra addition of comfort which is a very nice touch.The overall shave itself was exceptionally clean-cut, its four in one cutting foils work in tandem to give flawless results. The battery life of the shaver is fantastic , having used it for two weeks straight I haven’t had to charge it which is ideal. The cleaning station adds a addition to the experience, not only does it clean the shaving head, it dries it as well which is really cool.Overall I can safely say that this is the best shaver on the market right now, it’s well made, offers ... MoreThe Braun Series 9 Pro is an all-round top tier electric shaver.

German Quality at it's best

Have purchased this item (verified) from ShaverShop 1 year ago so it's had 365 days of shaving. I did a lot of research before the purchase and decided to give Braun a go. I used to have a much lower proce range shaver and upgraded. I have very sensitive skin and use the old fashioned brush and shaver soap tp lather up my skin and then use the Braun to shave. At first I needed to get used to the weight of the shaver and it's sound. However, from a performance viewpoint I cannot fault it. It's powerfull yet gentle. The shave is as close as a blade. I used a blader every Monday after not shaving the weekend with the previous shaver as it would lay down the closeness needed for the following 4 days - but now no more. I have not touched a blade shaver in a year - the 3 ... MoreHave purchased this item (verified) from ShaverShop 1 year ago so it's had 365 days of shaving.

I used a blader every Monday after not shaving the weekend with the previous shaver as it would lay down the closeness needed for the following 4 days - but now no more. I have not touched a blade shaver in a year - the 3 day growth is no match for this shaver.Then there is the cleaning station. I use it twice a week - it's bulky and lives in ym vanity drawer .. but I must admit tht it keep the unit in superb clean condition. So much so that after 1 year use it still looks brand new. The replacement cartridges - not to environmentaly friendly as it's plastic. There are some hacks on the net to make your own liquid and just use 1 cartridge ... but I decided with my twice a week clean it stretches to 1 cartridge every 6-8 weeks. $50 for 5 cartridges - that will last nearly a year.I am super happy with this purchase ans can highly recomend it to anyone using soap lather to have this as a wet shaver.

Good Razor terrible Manual

This is the best razor I have used. It has features that I didn’t know about and of which there is no mention in the UK manual which is uninformative and useless. In fact it is a disgrace. I have since found a little more in the way of pictorial information in the ?Japanese instructions.I didn’t know initially , and the manual makes no mention of the fact that the razor has a rotating head, and I have thus figured out the meaning and use of the multi head lock which had been a complete mystery.I have learnt that by removing the cutting head, that it can be fitted back the other way round and that one way is better than the other, but I am uncertain whether it is better for long stubble or a daily close shave.

No mention of this in the manualCleaning is a mystery. No mention is made in the U.K. manual that the brush is not recommended for brushing the outside of the foil , but can be used for brushing out the inside of the head. It is evidently OK to wash the outside of the head under running water but not before using the cleaning centre, presumably to avoid diluting the alcohol in the cleaning solution. No mention is made of washing the inside of the head under running water.No clear advice is given regarding the use of the cleaning centre apart from suggesting that the cartridge is changed every eight weeks. How often should the razor be cleaned?The degree of charge remaining on the razor is clarified in the Japanese instructions but not on the UK page. Why not?No clarification is given on the UK page for the lights on the digital display that refer to cleaning the razor or replacing the foil.In shert the U.K. page is pretty well worthless, and does Braun/P&G a major disservice.Customer Care useless

Poor electronics

I purchased this shaver about 15 months ago after my old Philishave finally gave up. Due to Covid related supply issues, the shop did not have any stock of the current wet and dry Philishave that I wanted. They suggested this Braun as the best alternative, so I bought it. It stopped charging after about six months and wouldn't switch on. I returned it to the store with the cables. They plugged it in and checked it and confirmed that it was dead. There was no issue with the replacement. They simply swapped it for a new one. Well, about six months later, the electronics on the second one started playing up, switching off randomly in the middle of a shave and refusing to switch back on. I ended up finishing every shave with a blade. I returned this to the store again ... MoreI purchased this shaver about 15 months ago after my old Philishave finally gave up.

I ended up finishing every shave with a blade. I returned this to the store again and they confirmed it was dead. No electrics and would not charge or switch on. They offered to replace it again, no problem. I told them I would prefer to switch back to a Philishave, so paid an extra $150 or so and got the latest wet and dry one. It operates perfectly and is a much better shaver. I will review separately.Two other observations on the Braun; it is very noisy, especially compared to the Philishave and the tapered shape does not lend itself to a good grip in your hand. Very slippery when wet shaving.The Shaver Shop at Maroochydore were great to deal with on the returns, so five stars for them.

Poor quality shave with inconsistent hair lengths

I purchased this shaver two weeks ago and found the whole experience very disappointing. I experienced poor quality shaves with an end result of very inconsistent hair lengths, regardless of attempting a wet or dry shave. Additionally, the shaver struggles to shave some areas, like below my chin, and any attempt to try for a closer shave or a consistent length only results in a painful shaving rash and burn. I have previously used electric shaver’s and feel comfortable with their use, so I don’t believe my experience with the Braun Series 9 Pro is user error. As my previous electric shaver has died, I have reverted to shaving with a manual razor.When I purchased the shaver from my local Shaver Shop, I enquired about the returns policy and warranty.

I was pitched that the shaver is the best electric shaver to provide a consistently close shave, particularly for hard to reach areas, and was informed that the returns policy includes instances where the product doesn’t do what was described. This shaver is described on the website to “easily capture even the tough hairs”, this has most certainly not been my experience. When I contacted my local store to discuss returns, I was told that the returns policy doesn’t cover issues of poor quality shaves and that the issue is in fact my skin, but that it’s okay because I can purchase things to help my skin. The issue is not my skin as I have used similar shaver’s before, the issue is an inconsistent shave.Despite the 60 day money back guarantee and the invoice stating that I can get a return or refund if the product "doesn't do what we said it would", I now have a very expensive paperweight because there is no way that I can get the quality shave that is required at my workplace with this shaver.

The best thing to a wet shave!

Shaving seems like more of a chore as I get older, the fact that I don't shave daily, makes the whole shaving experience more and more daunting, the longer I let my beard grow, the more pain I expect. So I didn't expect anything revolutionary from the Series 9 Pro 9467cc, but on first use it was amazing, I had at least 5 days of growth and it cut like I had no hair! I have since tried this with 7 days of growth, it does just as good, as it cuts like a knife through butter. It's changed the way I feel about shaving, I don't worry about the beard getting bigger and the torture that can result from it, its a wonderful advancement in technology which really makes life easier. I am really getting a close shave like a wet shave, I didn't think that was possible.

I am really getting a close shave like a wet shave, I didn't think that was possible. Another lovely thing is that as the Series 9 Pro 9467cc is waterproof, I can use shaving foam and also shave in the shower, where the steam makes an even easier cut! There are always hairs which other shavers doesn't seem to cut no matter what direction you try, the Series 9 Pro 9467cc shaves them first time, I don't know how they have done it, but that's really useful. In terms of the run time, I have charged this once and used it for about 1 week and its still got battery power. Leaving one of the best bit for last, with the 5-in-1 SmartCare holder it actually charges, cleans, and dries your shaver, what more do you need. An excellent and useful piece of tech.
