Johnny thunder 4.http://www.prvnistaticka.cz/userfiles/cascade-40-hot-water-heater-manual.xml0 out of 5 stars The Series 3 is made in China and doesn't have the pivoting head I need for a gentle shave. This is how I would break-down the differences between them: -Series 1 - Terrible, avoid at all costs -Series 3 - Good starter shaver for teens with thicker skin -Series 5 - Good for light and medium-light skin, does an adequate job with sensitive skin, pivoting head, excellent build-quality. Third most-powerful motor. It provides an identical shave. No longer do I have to wait for the shaver to charge, as I can just plug it in. More importantly, when the battery dies, I can still use it corded until the motor dies. I own both the Series 5 and 7, and each has a cleaning station. While it does a good job, I didn't like the station's build quality and the fact that replacement cartridges can get expensive. In other words, it's a cash-grab. Basically, you put the shaver head-first into the cleaner. It'll charge while it cleans and will use the power of gravity to pulsate-out the hair to the bottom of the cleaning cartridge. Instead, I take a glass with soap, flip the shaver head-first, and dunk it into the water while it is running (don't do this if you have it plugged-in). The hair will naturally fall to the bottom of the glass and the blades will be clean - its the exact same concept as the cleaning station - albeit safer (not flammable) and less-expensive. For the longer answer is, if you can find a great deal, just go with the Series 9. Read on for my take. If you don't know, the Series 7 is probably the most-recommended men's shaver on the planet. Why? A host of reasons, including: -It has been out since 2010 -Cool-looking design -A very close shave -A comfortable shave, thanks to the massaging, pulsating motor -A motor that adjusts to your beard -Five power settings Why do I diverge from the crowd. Well, the Series 5030 was released in 2012 - a full two years after the Series 7 was released.http://www.diamondsinthemaking.com/content/bpt-ophera-intercom-manual The changes were so successful that the 5040-series from 2016 was essentially the same - minus the dual power function. The 2015 Series 9 looks practically-identical to the Series 5. I think that says alot, as the Series 7's design didn't carry-over to another model - at least not yet. Here's why I prefer the Series 5. -Cost - This is the mac-daddy of all issues when comparing the 5 and the 7. Not only is this cheaper than the Series 7, but the blades are cheaper as well. The Series 7's most-well-known issue is that the same, high-quality blades that came with your Series 7 are notoriously-difficult to find.so much so, that there is actually price-gouging. While a Series 7 blade could fit on a Series 5 razor, the opposite isn't true, unfortunately. -Design - From an aesthetic POV, I like this one better. The Series 7's perhaps second-most well-known issue is that the lock will break with normal usage, which isn't covered under the warranty. -Build quality - I found that this one felt more substantial than the Series 7. I already thought that the Series 7 had great build quality, but the Series 5 beats it in my honest opinion. In other words, the hygiene indicator is a cash-grab. The Series 5, on the other hand, has LED lights that don't require ambient light to see clearly. Only a waterdrop icon appears when it says it needs to be cleaned - I just ignore it. -Beard trimmer - I find that the Series 5's beard trimmer is designed better and less-likely to break. -Cord placement - the power port is located at the back of the Series 7, which means that the unit has to be face-down when you charge it. If you had a corded model, it makes shaving with the cord very awkward. The Series 5 power port, on the other hand, is located on the bottom - so you can charge it from any angle you want. -Travel lock - The Series 5 has one; the Series 7 doesn't. The Series 7 tries to make up for this by making the power button recessed and thereby more difficult to press.https://www.climafan.com/images/cabal-online-manual-patch-episode-10.pdf I would concede the following points to the Series 7 -Power button location - The series 5's power button is located in an awkward situation. So when you first start shaving, don't be surprised if you accidentally turn it off. Annoying, but with a bit of practice, you'll overcome this. -More comfortable shave - I like the pulsating shave -Closer shave - It takes less time and effort, compared to the Series 5 -Power Levels - You can choose one of five power levels. Since beard types are different, I would recommend at least the Series 7 if you have at least a medium beard. Loved it so much I bought my brother this shaver for his light-beard and he loves it, too. I love this razor, but the power button is awkwardly-placed, the shave isn't as comfortable or close as the premium models, and you can't customize the power level. Although not perfect for everyone, this is perfect for me!I am a bit lazy and can go a week between shaves. On the long hair on my face it can tug occasionally on a hair or two but that is only after I am pretty furry. In that case I use the sideburn trimmer and go over my face once before shaving. The sideburn trimmer is very forgiving and does not cut my face. When I used the Norelco, the sideburn trimmer would actually cut my face. Also the Norelco would have no chance at all cutting a furry face whereas the Braun does pretty well. Also I have not had to recharge the battery since I got it. I cannot recall but that is 3 to 7 shaves since I bought it. The Norelco was only good for 2 or 3 shaves. Maybe another way to describe this razor is to say it is the best one I have ever owned so far (I am over 50). Update: I did not notice before but it does not shave as close as my Norelco did. My beard is mostly grey with some blond hairs in it. If you had black beard with thick hairs this shaver may leave some beard visible, I do not know. After shaving my face feels like fine sandpaper whereas the Norelco I felt smooth skin.https://evocative.ru/wp-content/plugins/formcraft/file-upload/server/content/files/1629c85dd6b4a1---Cr-5000-manual.pdf For my needs, it is still the best shaver I ever had.This razor works just as well but was less expensive. Doesn't have a hard case, just a pouch. Holds a charge for over a week of daily shaves and will give a very good shave. I got this model because it doesn't have the cleaning station which I consider a waste and because you can use this razor cordless or corded. Corded is important for when the battery finally dies - you can still use it with the cord as I did with the 360 Complete - that battery died years before the shaver finally quit. I think this is a good product for the price and look forward to it lasting a long time. I expect to have to buy a new cutter block and foil about once a year.It has failed three times since then, I sent it to Braun service in Oceanside NJ for repair. It's been fixed and returned to me each time. I got it back today, Dec. 7, 2018 after the 3rd fix. I have never gotten an explanation about why it failed. It must be a design flaw. How else could the shaver fail the same way three times. The first time I got an RMA. Easy. The 2nd time, RMAs were no longer supplied but I got a debit card covering my cost to ship. This time, no RMA and no debit card. Today I told Robin, a Braun customer service rep: I'm done with Braun, It's become a hassle to call, ship and wait. Who needs this? My advice: buy another brand.I have suffered from ingrown hairs on my neck for 30 years with regular razors and shave cream. In the past 3 weeks I have not had an ingrown hair. I wish I would have started using this years ago. Overall the performance is great and I get a nice clean shave. The only thing I would change would be how loud it is when you are using it, but in my opinion, that is a small sacrifice. I can't compare it to other electric shavers, but I purchased this based on the reviews of others on Amazon and I would highly recommend it to others.Sorry, we failed to record your vote.www.enmos.com/upload/files/canyon-cn-9iea-e-manual.pdf Please try again It is also smaller than the series 3 precision trimmer and does not cut nearly as well. I still have my series 3 and use it whenever I need to trim sideburns and such. Overall as decent shaver but not worth the extra cash over the series 3.Sorry, we failed to record your vote. Please try again Four years ago I purchased a Series 3 and found it superior to my rotaries. A month ago I purchased a Series 5 and it is much better than the series 3. The flex head makes shaving so much easier. Also very easy to remove the hair on the back of my neck. I am also getting a much closer shave in half the time. I highly recommend this shaver.Sorry, we failed to record your vote. Please try again Braun have a great product line and stand behind it. This new unit (series 5030) is awesome, as it has a powerful motor as advertised and that's why I purchased it - to shave my head, and it does a great close shave, no skin burn, battery does hold it's charge very well, first charge going on 2 weeks and I shave my head every day.Sorry, we failed to record your vote. Please try again This Braun is excellent, giving a close (but not so close as to cause irritation) and comfortable shave. It is much faster and much more convenient than shaving with a blade as I was used to. My only regret is not having made the switch years ago.Sorry, we failed to record your vote. Please try again The razor is fast, comfortable to use, ergonomic in design and produces a very close shave. Definitely a good buy on my part. Highly recommended, you have to hand it to Braun for design and quality.Sorry, we failed to record your vote. Please try again Its hard to give product a good score when the recommended replacement parts cannot be purchased.Sorry, we failed to record your vote. Please try again It cleans easy. This is an excellent shaver at a very affordable price.Sorry, we failed to record your vote.

Please try again Funciona a la perfeccion aun en el agua y la bateria me ha durado bastante, de verdad la recomiendo.Sorry, we failed to record your vote. Please try again I'm not exaggerating. I've had a Braun 105 shaver for a lifetime, it seems. When it died, I replaced it with a Braun series 1 CruZer. I returned it! Disposable razors get a clean shave - at the risk of ripping up my chin. No. This is it! The best shave I've ever had!Sorry, we failed to record your vote. Please try again I have purchased several Braun shavers over the course of my adult life. This doesn't live up to my earlier shaver as it doesn't provide a close shave as the previous ones.Sorry, we failed to record your vote.

With a host of compelling features, the Series 5 appears to be a viable alternative to the more expensive Series 7 but without any significant trade-offs in performance or build quality.http://www.franklinwebdesign.com/wp-content/plugins/formcraft/file-upload/server/content/files/1629c85f063789---Cr-7400-manual.pdf The 5090cc (5190cc) is one the best-selling Series 5 models that has been getting quite a lot of attention for being basically a Series 7 on a budget. In order to find out if the hype around it is real, we have given the 5090cc the full ShaverCheck treatment and subjected it to a thorough testing. In this Braun Series 5 5090cc review we will take a close look at all the things that matter and see if the Series 5 line is up to the expectations. UPDATE: the Series 5 5090cc is getting more difficult to find and was basically replaced by the 5190cc (5195cc, 5197cc) model. The shaving performance is identical and apart from a few minor differences, they’re basically the same. So this can very well be considered a Braun 5190cc review. Table of Contents Features overview Included accessories Build quality and ergonomics Battery life and charging Shaving performance Closeness of the shave Comfort How fast does it shave. Long hair trimmer How does it compare to the Series 7? Cleaning and maintenance Manual cleaning Automatic cleaning Replacement parts availability Wrapup — Who should buy it. Alternative shavers Features overview 3 blade shaving system The Braun Series 5 5090cc is a three blade foil shaver suitable for dry only use. The more recent Series 5 models like the 5190cc, 5195cc or 5197cc can be used wet or dry. All of them are however waterproof and can be cleaned with water. The shaving head configuration is typical Braun and features two outer foils with the trademark octagonal perforations and one middle trimmer. The outer foils catch and cut short stubble close to the skin, while the middle cutter, called the ActiLift Trimmer, captures longer, flat-lying hairs that grow in different directions. Flexing shaving head The three cutting elements can move independently to maintain constant contact with the skin, regardless of the area that’s being shaved. Braun calls this FlexMotionTec with MicroMotion.giasuminhtam.com/Images_upload/files/canyon-cn-7v4a-manual.pdf Apart from that, the whole shaving head pivots to further improve the contact between the cutting elements and the different contours of the face. The pretentious term used in this case is FlexMotionTec with MacroMotion. Multi-HeadLock The head of the Series 5 can also be locked into place when more precision is needed. This is carried out via the head locking switch located on the front of the shaver, just below the shaving head. There are 5 predetermined positions for locking the shaving head and you can go through them by simply pushing the head into a different one without any damage to the ratcheting mechanism. This is a major improvement over the locking mechanism of the Series 7 that would simply break when you applied more pressure. In the two extreme positions, the middle trimmer and one of the two foils are also retracted, so you end up with just one of the foils protruding, very handy for shaving tricky areas like under your nose. Long hair trimmer On the back of the Series 5 you’ll find a long hair trimmer, similar to the ones used on the Series 3 and Series 9. When fully extended, it just about passes the shaving head so you can sort of see what you are doing. The station uses an alcohol-based solution and takes care of cleaning, lubricating and charging your Series 5 shaver. We’ll cover the station in great detail later into the review. Corded or cordless use (5090cc) The 5090cc is equipped with a Li-Ion battery that should provide 45 minutes of cordless use. Since this shaver is suitable for dry use only, you can also shave while it is plugged in. You can charge the shaver via the station or by plugging the included cord directly into the shaver. Braun Series 5 5190cc See the price on Amazon While the 5090cc in our review is waterproof and can be safely rinsed under water, you cannot use it in the shower or with shaving cream or gel. Other noteworthy features of the Series 5 5090cc include a 5 level battery indicator, hygiene status, 5-minute quick charge option and a travel lock. I would have liked to see those included, but for the price of the 5090cc, it’s not too bad I particularly like the hard travel case that offers far better protection in case of mechanical shocks compared to the flimsy faux leather pouches used by Panasonic for example. Unfortunately there’s no room for the charging cord inside the case. It’s also interesting to note that other Series 5 models come with different accessories. For example, the 5090cc reviewed here is the only Series 5 that comes with a hard travel case. All the other ones include a soft pouch or none at all. The newer models like the 5190cc also come with a plastic protective cap. For a complete overview of all the Series 5 models and their differences, you can check out our detailed comparison. Build quality and ergonomics Braun’s Series 5 sits right between the Series 3 and the Series 7. However, if we consider the overall quality and performance, it is a whole lot closer to the Series 7. To back this up, the Series 5 is made in Germany, just like the more premium Series 7 and 9. The entry-level Series 3 is made in China. One interesting thing is that only the shaver is made in Germany. The cleaning cartridge is made in Ireland, the cleaning station is made in Hungary, while the charging cord, cleaning brush and travel case are made in China. The Series 5 5090cc (5190cc) is made entirely out of plastic, with both glossy and matte treatments. The color scheme of our review unit looks quite striking with the black and red combination. The back of the shaver is pretty plain. There is a generous, textured rubber insert that extends to the sides and provides an excellent grip even when your hands are wet. The same rubberized material covers most of the long hair trimmer as well. You can also see the two metal studs that come into contact with two metal plates inside the cleaning station. It’s got a considerable girth and looks very beefy. However, it is lightweight and feels well balanced. It’s also quite similar to the range-topping Series 9 in terms of design language and proportions. Braun Series 9 vs Series 5. The backside of the two looks almost identical (5090cc to the left, 9290cc to the right): Braun Series 5 5090cc (left) and Braun Series 9 9290cc (right). The overall build quality of the Series 5 is very good, with no visible defects or unsightly gaps between the various surfaces. The glossy black does show smudges and fingerprints and it probably scratches easily, so you’ll have to be careful with it. The shaving head looks and feels of high quality and snaps securely in place. It also pops out easily when you need to clean it manually. With only 3 cutting elements, it’s also quite slim and very easy to maneuver in tight spots, especially when compared to a 5 blade Panasonic Arc 5 behemoth. Braun Series 5 cassette The simple and clear LED display is very practical and a definite improvement over the oddly placed and dim display of the Series 7. It shows the battery level, when you need to clean the shaver or when the travel lock is activated. Actually it’s not the noise itself, but the vibrations. They are really strong and you can definitely feel them in your hand and on your face when using the shaver. A Series 7 is much more refined in this regard. I didn’t find the vibrations to affect the quality of my shave, but I definitely couldn’t ignore them. Overall, I must say that I am very pleased with the build quality, looks and ergonomics of the 5090cc. Battery life and charging The 5090cc comes with a Li-Ion battery that provides up to 45 minutes of cordless shaving time. I found this claim to be pretty accurate and it even slightly surpassed these numbers during my time with the shaver. The newer 5190cc is rated for 50 minutes of use, so that one should be even better. It takes around 60 minutes for the battery to fully charge and you can achieve this by plugging the cord directly into the shaver or by placing it into the cleaning base that also charges the shaver. There’s also a 5-minute quick charge option that should provide just enough power to complete one shaving session. The LED display is very straight forward, with 5 bars that indicate the charge status of the battery. The 5090cc is the only Series 5 with a 5 level battery indicator, the rest of them having a 3 level display or even 2 (5040s). There is also a low charge light that will start blinking when the battery is running low. When this happens you should be able to complete your shave with the remaining charge. Shaving performance And now let’s get to the most important part of the review, the actual shaving performance. I used the Series 5 5090cc exclusively for 3 weeks, shaving daily and every other day for the most part. I didn’t shave on weekends just to see how it would deal with a longer beard on a Monday morning when you probably want to get it over with as fast as possible. Closeness of the shave When it comes strictly to the closeness of the shave, the 5190cc (and the Series 5 in general) is pretty good. It’s not the closest shaving electric razor in this price category — that title goes to the Panasonic Arc 4 — but most men will probably be satisfied with the results. To me the Series 5 is on par with the Series 7 in this regard, even though it lacks some of its trademark features, like the sensitivity settings or the micro-pulsations technology. In real life use, they don’t seem to make any significant difference. With that said, if you have a very fast beard growth, you could see a 5 o’clock shadow creep up sooner than you would like. If that sounds like you, then a Panasonic Arc 4 would probably be a better choice for pretty much the same money. The Series 5 5190cc copes surprisingly well with longer hairs, at least for a foil shaver. After two or three days of growth, it managed to get the flat-lying hairs on my neck and right under the chin. This is an area where most electric shavers I’ve used have struggled. As long as the hairs aren’t completely flat and unreasonably long, the Series 5 will do just fine. The head locking feature was really useful for shaving right under my nose. Using a pre-shave lotion does help in making the Series 5 glide more smoothly over the skin. If your skin is a little damp it can hop and drag over the skin. I used Williams Lectric Shave, but any pre-shave of your choice will do. Comfort While the closeness of the Series 5 isn’t class-leading, this shaver shines when it comes to comfort. Braun Series 5 5190cc See the price on Amazon It really impressed me how it always provided a perfectly comfortable shave, even when I pressed harder than I normally would. The shaving head remained cool during the entire shaving session which is something a lot of shavers fail to do. For example, the foils and trimmers on most Panasonic shavers get really hot after a couple of minutes of use. That’s not the case with the Series 5 or any of Braun’s razors in general. For these reasons I highly recommend the Series 5 if you have sensitive skin or suffer from razor burn. How fast does it shave. The Series 5 is fitted with the same motor as the Series 7 as far as I know, even though they sound different. The Series 7 is more refined, while the Series 5 is louder and vibrates vigorously. I would say that they are pretty similar in terms of speed, maybe with a slight advantage to the Series 7. A Panasonic Arc 4 with a mighty 14000 CPM motor will shave faster than a Series 5 that uses a 10000 CPM unit provided that your beard is reasonably short. So if you want the fastest shaving electric shaver for the money then the Panny is probably the better choice. But keep in mind that it’s not as comfortable as the Series 5 and it doesn’t shave flat hairs as easy. I don’t like the fact that it has a curved profile, I find that a straight edge works much better. You have to tilt the shaver so that the extremities of the trimmer will come into contact with the skin. Otherwise just the middle part will do the cutting and depending on what you’re doing this may not be ideal. Finally, I would have liked it to be a bit wider and sharper; it just takes me more time to shape my sideburns with the 5090cc compared to other shavers. How does it compare to the Series 7? I cannot wrap up the performance review of the Series 5 without addressing the elephant in the room — how it compares to the Series 7. I will say it right off the bat, as far as shaving performance goes, they are very similar. In fact, I can’t really find any compelling reason to pay more for a Series 7. The replacement shaving heads used by the Series 5 are also cheaper compared to the ones needed for the Series 7. The Series 5 really is a viable, more affordable alternative to the Series 7. Braun Series 5 5190cc See the price on Amazon The Series 7 feels more refined, a bit faster and more forgiving, but again, nothing dramatically different. Cleaning and maintenance Cleaning our gear is an integral part of any shaving routine and ideally it should be fast and easy to perform. I’ll first go over the manual cleaning process and then we’ll see how the station performs. Manual cleaning After completing the shave, the first thing I do is detach the shaving head from the hand-held unit and very gently tap it on the countertop, foils side up. This is necessary in order to get the bulk of the hair clippings out of the shaving head. You can also use the included brush to further clean the inner area of the cassette. Do not use it on the foils as they can be easily damaged.
