Lastly, it cleans by only tapping the head to shake out the cuttings and then brushing the rest away. You can also clean it by washing it with water. Only minus is you have to change the head to attach a trimmer blade- it doesn’t pop up as on the 5 series shaver.

Part of the test was to also use the shaver on various amounts of hair growth (i,e,. daily, every 2 – 3 – and 4 days). With most electric shavers including this Braun, up to 2 or 3 days is best, but I do like to push them a little at first for review purposes. Unboxed a buyer gets the shaver, manual, charging power lead, a trimmer, and a small cleaning-up brush with the 5018S (50-B1200S) model I purchased.

One more issue users would like Braun to improve Philips Norelco Shaver is the length or extension of the trimmer. It is currently too short, making it difficult to see the trimming area. To cap it all off, I’d say this device here is the perfect “Mid-Range” product if there ever was one. But then, you have to consider the comfort level Braun offers.
These attachments are easily clipped on and off just like the blade head mentioned above. I only shave every 2 or 3 days (I’m retired and can get away with that). Unfortunately, if I do that this razor does not cut all the beard growth and leaves hairs. You have to go over repeatedly, or in my case, go over with my old Norelco I wanted to replace. If I shave again the next day, I am happy with this Braun, otherwise it is a disappointment.

Alternatively, you can also throw in your method — using the Jet Clean solution which is detergent-based and should work really well.
