Braun PocketGo Mobile Shave Electric Travel Shaver, for On The Go, Fully Washable, M90, Black/Silver

Before I start I have got to say I have tried all the major brands over the years and for me Braun wins for the closest shave by a country mile.This shaver gives me as close a shave as my 3 series twin foil Braun.Yes it will take a bit longer because its a single foil but not much longer...I have had four good 5 minute shaves with the AA batteries and the operator book states you should get 60 mins shave time...Excellent value for money and highly recommend.

My brother who is 83 battles to use most razors finds this perfect to use.

Not as good as a wet shave but an excellent little battery shaver for travel

I normally wet shave but there are times when I simply don't have time and if you need to look respectable you just can't turn up with stubble (unless it's "designer" and that's not me).I bought from a certain auction website an inexpensive electric razor but it really didn't do the job and the rechargeable battery expired within a year so it is now in the bin. As I usually do, I researched the market thoroughly before buying. In the end I felt I couldn't lose this was less than £20 and I opted for it over the M60 because of the trimmer function for which I am really glad. The ability just to trim the sideburns makes you look so much better groomed, even if you are overdue a trip to the barber.So, downside. None! Upside, takes batteries so you can always stop at your nearest newsagent or convenience store and get some more. It is BRAUN so the quality is fantastic. It's waterproof so, if you want to, you can shave in the shower (although I'm not sure this is a definite advantage) and it will not be ruined in the bathroom when you spill water onto it. The design is excellent so that the foil guard also cuts off the power swich and it cannot just turn itself on in your washbag (which my toothbrush does). There is a cute cleaning brush recessed into the base although you can just wash it under the tap. New foils are easy to come by and cheap. It takes around two minutes to have a clean-up shave where my Chinese one took nearly 10 minutes. It does not tug the hair it just cuts it without any discomfort.BRAUN sell razors for over £200. I get as close a shave with the M90 as I do with a wet razor against the grain of my beard. My skin must be pretty sensitive as I have only just found a wet razor I can do this with, previously I had to shave with the grain to avoid shaving rash. My wife loves the result and it's so convenient that if we are going out in the evening you can get rid of the 5 o'clock shadow in no time. I bought this thinking that if I liked it I would ask for an expensive model as a birthday present - forget it, if there is any advantage to a £200 razor (and I suppose there must be some) I amfar too content with what I have to even contemplate changing.

This is honestly the best shaver I have ever used. I purchased a series 3 shaver from Amazon last year and this little thing cuts better and gives me a really close shave and really honestly as close as any good wet shaver.I cannot understand why some of the reviewers have given only one star but I think they are reviewing the wrong item because this is unbelievably good.It is well designed and the M90 has the sideburn and mustatch trimmer whereas the M60 has not.There is also a little brush that fits very snugly into the bottom battery cover. It does take two AA batteries which says not included but are very much included and are Duracell too.I know these are German design but are made in China to a high standard and they are an ideal size to hold in your hand and with the batteries inserted they are just the right weight too.The beauty of these are the foil heads and blades are easily available from that very famous auction site (eBay) and I have seen the foil heads for about £4 to £5 and the cutter blades for about the same price but you can get both in packs and no more than £8. I think that is really good and don't let it put you off coming from China because that is where these shavers are made anyway. Obviously if you order spares from China they will take anything up to 3 weeks to get here but worth it.I had a shave today with my series 3 shaver (triple foil) and then I had one after with this shaver (M90) and it really did get every little but of stubble right down to the skin. Yes it was slightly sore after but nothing a bit of aftershave or balm cannot sort out. I expect it was because it was such a close shave. I cannot use the rotary shavers because they make me so sore but these I can use and I am still so amazed at this shaver it is now my favourite.Please ignore the one star reviews they really are reviewing the wrong item.

Received only broken box with batteries inside. Should zero star.

Purchased for my son who has just started wanting to shave. I chose this as this type of foil razer was the type I started off with when I was his age. To be honest, it was the only one I could find like it - seems like everything else these days, manufacturers feel the need to keep adding blades/cutters for no reason. I knew with this design there would be no chance of cutting or scratching.So, this is smooth and safe on the skin. It is, however, quite hard work to shave with. Maybe it's only those early years wispy hairs that it struggles with and it's performance will improve when the facial hair develops more - I don't know as I have not tried it on my own face. But, it takes several, and I mean several, passes to remove those hairs which can lead to some irritation.My son is happy enough though. It's a nice small size so will be easy enough to take away on travels too. To be fair, the main objective was not to put him off by pinching/cutting, and this certainly does neither of those things. Let's just hope the cutting improves as the facial hair matures.

Good shaver, second one I’ve owned
