Braun does not need a special introduction since it has been in the market for as long as I can remember. This German brand has consistently delivered the best quality over the years making it a preferred choice for many users of electric shavers.
It is a compact, sleek, and top-notch performer
It is sleek and sits well in the hand. The chrome polished plastic gives it a classic feel and the compact body is engineered to withstand heavy duty. It also sports a pop-up trimmer for side burn and moustache trimming.
According to the manufacturer, the 9-9095cc performs about 40,000 cross cutting actions per minute, which delivers an unmatched performance. Its cutting elements utilize a four-way shear system, a functionality that works in combination with floating grills to help you reduce the number of razor passes before you get the closest shave you desire.
The cutting elements are designed to deliver a clean shave without unnecessarily repeating passes. The first cutting element cuts the hair directly while the next cutting element lifts up the hair that is lying on the skin and cuts them. What you are left with is a smoother shave in two or less passes.
This is a very important performance feature you cannot overlook, especially considering the fact that there is no single electric shaver that delivers the smoothest shave in one pass.
It is waterproofed and has both wet/dry capabilities. Comes with a cleaning dock
Braun 9095cc is the
wet/dry model in the 9 series. It has a notable battery life with a single charge sustaining functionality for about 55 minutes before needing to recharge. It has a display to show you how much shaving time you have before the power runs out.
It comes with a charging cum cleaning station (at no extra cost) that does a wonderful job at removing all the hairs and disinfecting the machine before the next use. The cleaning action is done with the correct cleaning program automatically selected while the device is recharging, hence reducing the “down time”.
You must also note that you should not use shaving foams with Braun shavers that come with a cleaning station.
What you may not like about it
Braun has been replacing their foil and cutters by phasing out the 90s and 90b and replacing them with the 92s, which is coated with titanium to make it more durable. Due to this shift, you may have to wait a little longer for parts to arrive.
