If you like pain...then this replacement foil is for you July 21, 2010 David Latka (Michigan, USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
If you're like me, you enjoy the most painful shave in the morning to help wake you up. Well then, you'll love this replacement foil. Unlike the original "Activator" branded foil that came with my razor, this one locates the long hairs and grabs on to them tightly. As you move the razor, you'll get that eye opening riiiipppp, that just screams, "Welcome to the new day!". I think I had 'tears of joy' after using this new foil after a long weekend where I hadn't shaved for three days. My family relished in my "delight" as I exclaimed "Ouch!", "#$&%!" and "*%$&!" throughout my shave. With the volume of my voice, the whole household knew that I was getting that Epilady close shave that everyone enjoys.
The reason I only gave this replacement foil 2 stars is because the excruciating pain that I love so much, is only possible when I haven't shaved for a few days. If I shave everyday and don't let my beard get too long, I get that unsatisfying comfortable, "pain-free" and close shave that absolutely nobody would want. Please Braun engineers, work harder to take this technology even closer to the shear terror that everybody so enjoys in a painful shave. Also, many thanks for discontinuing the Activator branded replacement foil that gave me a comfortable shave every day for 2 years.
It fits, just pulls my hair July 20, 2010 Gabriel Issa (california) I have been using this product for two weeks now, and when I don't shave on the weekends my hair grows out a little. Then when I shave Monday morning I have to move very slowly to reduce the pulling of facial hair. I have only experienced this before when I was shaving really fast or on a low charge. Not very happy with this new foil and cutter, but what are you going to do about it. It does shave close and a little smoother then my old cutter and foil that is now worn out. If you have thick facial hair you may want to consider another replacement.
Terrible! July 5, 2010 A. Fry (Lititz, PA United States) I never thought I'd say anything bad about my Braun 8585 shaver, but the replacement foils and cutterblock have ruined a wonderful shaver.
Here's what happened....I used my original blades and foil for 2 to 3 years. The shaver gave me a GREAT shave. Then I replaced those blades with replacement foil and cutterblock. What a mistake! Apparently Braun was bought out by Gillette in 2005. Gillette changed the design of the blades and moved the manufacture of them to China. Well, now blades that are supposed to last 18 months only last 2-3 months. They are HORRIBLE.
I am so frustrated because it now takes me 3 times as long to shave and the results are just terrible. The shaver is cutting my face and not my hair. Yesterday, I ordered a Panasonic shaver because I can't afford to replace the blades every 2-3 months and get a crappy shave.
I used to love this shaver. What a shame.
Does the trick, but seems to razor burn more than previous blade/foil June 14, 2010 Bob (Florida) I bought 2 of these for the Braun 8985 shaver (to save on shipping) and it seems like a nicer blade than the previous one I had. However, it seems to razor burn more than the previous one. Could just be a person by person thing though. Otherwise, no complaints!
works good May 21, 2010 Theodore C. Sherman Updating the foil and cutter is worth it. The product fits just like the old one.
