I wish I owned the factory that makes these things...
This is a factory replacement part for several models of Braun shavers, so it fits perfectly, and it works just like the original part.<br /><br />The bad news is the price.  You'll hold it in your hand and say, "How could this thing cost $30!?"  Well, it just does; if you want the factory part, you have to pay the factory price.  There is no after-market replacement.<br /><br />Do you even need to replace the cutter assembly?  Probably so.  Obviously, if you dent the original by fumbling your shaver, you'll need a replacement.  However, even with perfect care, the original cutter wears out in about 18 months.  If you pop the foil cover off of your shaver, you can see why:  The blades run back and forth against the foil cover, shearing off the whiskers that have protruded into the tiny holes and slots.  Eighteen months of friction does the damage.<br /><br />So, if you want the Braun shaver-- which, by the way is excellent-- then you just have to buy the parts needed to do the periodic maintenance.  Life is like that sometimes...
