Review (2/5): Still Not Cutting
Unfortunately, this replacement foil and cutter didn't make the cut...literally. My husband said it barely cut. His Braun 3 that he's been using for the past 9 months out-cuts this replacement for his Braun 5. At least the foil and cutter stay on the shaver, which is a lot more than I can say for the cheap Chinese replacement foil and cutter I had previously purchased (and promptly returned when it kept popping off the shaver).
Apparently, people were right when they said that even the German-made foil and cutter were not as good as they had been a few years ago. The first replacement foil and cutter I got him lasted about a year. The second replacement lasted about 8 months. Now this replacement is basically worthless. It irritates me that I will have to buy him a new shaver when the old one would still work fine if I could find a good foil and cutter.
