...websites, I settled on a Braun Activator razor as they scored consistently well on all sites. Just after I made my decision, Braun released 2 new razors, the Activator 360 8985 and 8995. The difference in price between the 2 is approximately £30, ostensibly for a LCD Screen on the 8995. I was not interested in this extra cost and so the 8985.
The product was very easy to set up and was fully charged within 2 hours. The charge is meant to last for ... ...month's worth of shaving, but I have not yet had need to test this out.

The Braun Synchro 7785 is a wonderful bit of technology! Personally, I was never a big fan of electric shavers. I've had a few in the past and have never found it to be as close a shave as a manual shave but the Braun changes everything. I have found it... more
I bought one of these after joining the gym and pool. Its great! Really simple to use and can be used for bikini line and under arms as well. Lasts much longer than shaving, great for frequent swimming. No mess like creams and waxing. Having been told more
