Braun CruZer 5 Shaver And Trimmer Review

The Braun Cruzer 5 is, thankfully,  a chargeable device that comes with a charging cord, a little brush to clean off bits of hair from the shaver head and trimmer,  a tiny bottle of oil for the internal machine as well as a protective cover for when you’re travelling.

The metal foil on the shaver head of the Braun Cruzer 5 gives a close,  smooth shave while being gentle on the skin. There’s no tugging or pulling and best of all, no razor burn or rash after using it.

You can get a clean shave on upto 3 days of stubble growth. More than that and you would have to first use the trimmer to trim it and then shave.

The trimmer slides up smoothly at the press of a button and is great for trimming unruly beards and also for getting your beard in shape.  However, it does trim the hair quite short and doesn’t have different levels of trimming where you can maintain the length you require.

The cap that comes with the Cruzer 5 covers the button, the shaver head as well as the trimmer so that you can travel with it without fear of any clothes snagging on the blade or the shaver getting switched on accidentally.

Once charged, you get upto 45 minutes of usage which means you don’t need to charge it very frequently.  Of course that also depends on the usage so if,  like my husband,  you use it only for trimming once every 2-3 days with just the occasional clean shave, then the charge would last you more than a month!

Priced at ₹4,790, the Braun CruZer 5 is also available on several websites at discounted rates. Besides cutting down on the shave time, it is also gentle on the skin and prevents it from getting a razor burn. I highly recommend this product for all the men in your lives – from your dad to husband to brother.
