 Razor is like new! September 15, 2009
JMop (USA)
12 out of 12 found this review helpful
Braun changed the package and how they number their razors/refills. I used this with my 8000 self cleaning razor, I think its an 8985 or 8595 or something. In any case, as usual after replacing this stuff it shaves like new. I purchased the razor in the spring of 2005 and change it about every 12 -14 months, still going strong. I considered buying the new braun but changed my mind when I saw how much it was and knowing that with the new blade mine will be 94% as good as the new 'improved' version.

The Braun shaver cutter is a great replacement for my dull cutter at an excellent price.

Makes a big difference November 29, 2009

After replacing the old set (which was overdue) I could immediatley tell the difference. The shave went faster and closer.
Recommended.
Do yourself a favor and replace your cutter as recommended January 21, 2010

I won't bother reviewing the overall performance of the razors themselves for which this is a replacement. Presumably if you're in the market for one of these it's a bit too late for that. So, I will just address the issue of whether or not you should bother buying this replacement. Does it make sense to replace the cutter head as often as the manufacturer states, or even at all? I can unequivocally verify that Braun is not exaggerating when they claim the cutter blocks wear out after a year and a half. I don't know how the heck they quantitatively compute a percentage increase for the efficacy of a shave (25% better?), but qualitatively there is a huge difference.
You probably think your razor hasn't deteriorated over the year and a half, but it has. You just don't notice it because it's gradual. However, when you put a new cutter in, the difference is dramatic. The shave pulls much less, and is much smoother.
You can argue it's a bit unfortunate that the Braun cutter blocks don't last longer. I tend to agree. But the truth is they don't. This is especially true once they went to the Gillette-made cutter (with the beveled cutting surfaces). If anything, I'd recommend replacement once a year.

I didn't realize how dull my razor had become. It's like a new razor again
