Customer Rating: Summary: Great replacement Comment: I haven't used mine yet as I'm on the original one that came with the razor. Normally the blades on an electric are used up in 6 months on my razors. The Braun 9595 is hands down the best razor I've ever used and the replacement blades are the same as the one that came with the unit, so I can expect at least a year out of the blades. Also use the Braun Fluid, I think it really helps keep everything working right and seems to keep the blades sharper.
Customer Rating: Summary: Disappointed Comment: After having only used the 9595 for 9 months with TLC, the silver front "Pulsonic" fell off foil and cutter cassette and cannot be put back on. Naturally not covered under 2 year warranty. Disappointed in this workmanship. My hubby loves the razor. Customer Rating: Summary: close shave Comment: I used the replacement on my pulsonic razor and it works as well as when it was new nice close shave for an electric razor.. Customer Rating: Summary: over hyped Comment: Having used a Braun shaver for several years, I was looking to the newer Pulsonic shaver last year. Unfortunately, I found myself having to work twice as hard to get a good shave. I thought maybe the problem was with the cutting blades, so I ordered a new foil and cutterblock. After a few weeks of use, I don't see an enormous improvement. I still have to work harder and longer than my original Braun. Even then, my 5 o'clock shadow seems to be arriving more like 2 o'clock. Customer Rating: Summary: The Benchmark of Shavers! Comment: Just replaced my foil and cutterblock for my Braun Pulsonic System 9595 and it is like having a brand new shaver. When it comes to shavers, Braun is the benchmark...continually improving on each model they introduce.
For those only giving this item 1 star, you expectation are unrealistic. Worse, if you bought the product and were not happen with it, then you have returned it.
The foil and cutterblocks are going to vary from one person to another as to how long they last. Whether you shave daily, hair type, and how much you have to shave.
Above all, it is hard to find a better shaver on the market.
