About this deal

The newer models that were introduced — 5197cc, 5190cc, 5195cc, 5147s, 5145s and 5140s —don’t really bring any significant improvements over the 50** shavers. As for maintenance, always wash the cassette (inside and out) after every use with warm tap water and every once in a while use some liquid soap for a thorough cleaning. Also, once a week make sure to apply a drop of lubricant on each foil (you can use sewing machine oil, clipper oil or a spray lubricant for electric shavers). Here are all the details. Can you confirm that the cleaning works as well, not just the charging function? I have a 5190cc as well and tried a solo Series 5, I think it was the 5030s, and it didn’t work. The 5147s is a newer model so it is possible to have the chip for pairing with a station, although I still doubt it. Braun customer support also told me that it will not work. Charging and Battery – The rechargeable Li-Ion should provide a user with 50 minutes of runtime, and it takes approximately 1 hour for the battery to charge fully. The Arc models from Panasonic usually provide a closer shave compared to similarly priced razors from Braun, but they have some specific shortcomings as well (not as comfortable, not very good with flat-lying hairs). Given that you’ll be shaving a light and short beard, I think the 5197cc will be perfectly suitable. It’s a good and versatile shaver and the cleaning station is quite handy.

The shaver features an 8-D pivoting head that allows the shaver to adapt to the facial curves and catch maximum hairs with skin comfort. It comes with a sturdy travel case that was not provided in the predecessor model. The manufacturer implemented a 3-stage LED display that looks more advanced than the premium Series 7 shavers.Electric shaver for men with 3 Flexible Blades that adapts to facial contours for a close shave made easy LED Display – A simple LED display shows when the shaver is charging, how much charge is left (3 lights for fully charged), and other indicator lights. When it comes to actually buying a Series 5, there are only a few things that really matter: the inclusion of a cleaning station, wet & dry operation and the price.

For both the Series 5 and 9 the models that can be used with the cord plugged in are the dry only variations. In the case of the Series 5 you can find them in the table in this post (5090cc, 5030s). With the Series 9 only the first generation (dry only) shavers can be used while charging (9090cc, 9093s). Ones again i would like to thank you for your advice and the help that you offer here in the comments but also from your rewiews, as i had told you i bought the series 5(5190) and I try to learn it and get used to it but because I have sensitive skin I want to follow your advice and get a pre shave cream, i have found the proraso cream but I am a little confused because I read about its application that I have to wet my face first, but I have read that you say the skin must be completely dry, what is the truth, do you know? This is an advanced wet/dry shaver that is adorable for efficient wet shaving and fast dry shaving. The Braun 5195cc is a 100% waterproof device that allows you to shave under the shower or rinse the device very easily. It is super secure to handle with a wet hand because of its textured rubber grip that feels super comfortable at the grasp. I’m new in the Braun world, I had a round electric razor and it was a nightmare, so I want to try the Braun shaver. I saw the series 3 (3040s) with a tentative price, but then I saw the series 5 and it looks really nice, so I don’t know if it worth to pay more for the series 5 or go for the series 3. what are the pros and cons of the two seires ? If this isn’t an issue, then you can opt for the 5040s variation or other models from the updated series (like the 5140/5145s for example).

Just for info, for a cleaning solution with my old station I just use 70% isopropyl alcohol with a few drops of lemon juice. This seems to work fine, the station accepts it and I use it once a week or so with manual dry cleaning after every shave. I’m not sure that this will work with the new station though. However I expect that with careful (and light) use for an ageing face, the heads should last longer than 18 months. Reply Thank you for your comment. While I do agree to some of your observations, I don’t think things are really that bad with the Series 5 and with Braun shavers in general.
