Product Description

The new 360 Complete, model 8985, provides Braun's closest most complete shave ever. 360Complete features Gillette Blade Technology that cuts hairs close in a single stroke without pulling or tugging. Braun's patented Power-Comb lifts problem hairs that lie flat to the skin to avoid missed hairs in hard to shave areas. The unique SmartFoil pattern captures hairs growing in different directions while the 3-Stage Cutting System progressively shaves long hairs and stubble for a closer shave in fewer strokes. The 360Complete's Clean&Renew System automatically cleans, lubricates, dries and charges to keep the shaver feeling like new every day. This rechargeable shaver features an ergonomic shape and non-slip handle for easy maneuvering. Includes charging and replacement parts indicator, 50-minutes of cordless shave time from a 1-hour full charge and a 5-minute quick charge for 1 shave.

Every man's style and stubble is different - the Series 5 is as happy tackling light overnight stubble as it is a weekend's worth of heavy growth by getting rid of those frustrating problem hairs that lie flat to skin.

Pressing the shaver harder, repeatedly going over the same area, risking skin irritation is no longer necessary because the sleekly styled Series 5 helps give you a hassle-free, close, and comfortable shave any day of the week.

Best electric razor I've used but still not as close as a razor blade
I love this razor but, just as with a half dozen others I've tried, it does not shave as close as my Sensor blades with my "old fashioned" razor. However, this one doesn't leave stray, flattened hairs untouched as with my most recent Remington Platinum. The cleaner is a bit bulky but if you pop the razor foil (but still attached) and run…   More reviews
8985 vs 7500 series
I've been a Braun user for over a decade using the 7500 Syncro shaver. The 8985 is more quiet and shaves about the same, however, it seems to be more consistent across the whole face.

My face hurts...
