Braun 8000 360 Complete Foil and Cutter Block for Models 8995, 8985 and 8975

My shaves were not close after 12 months usage of my new razor. Braun recommends replacing the foil and cutting block after 18 months but I have a very tough beard so I decided to replace those items early. The razor is like new again.

If you have the face of a baby or a little girl, this may last you 18 months, but real men with actual facial hair will find that it will last 6 months, tops. The product works well when it's new, but performance drops off noticeably after a couple of months.

I bought my Braun razor because I was spending too much money on decent blades. But with the high price of the razor, the Clean & Charge solution that needs constant replacement, and this foil and cutter block that needs changing twice a year, I think the razor manufacturers have us by the balls and they know it.

I should have replaced the cutter block and foil about a half year sooner. The razor has me back to being smoother than the dull cutter and foil arrangement offered though it wasn't really all that bad. The new cutter and foil takes less time to get a finished shave. Is worth the time reclaimed but think the price is a bit of a heave.

This product returned the shaver to new condition. Shaves as well as it did the first time. Long lasting. Still cuts well after 18 months when it is time to change as directed.

Been using the Braun 360 for a year now. These blades are good but I can't get more than 4 or 5 months out of them. I have a heavy beard growth. Still cheaper than disposable blades.
