Braun
Pulsonic 9595CC Men's Shaver
 The
Braun Pulsonic,
launched in mid-2007, has become one of the most popular men's shavers on
the market. You can read an introduction at the
company website.
According to a product description:
Pulsonic is the "first of a new kind"--a new top-of-the-line shaving
system from Braun...
Braun Pulsonic's motor sends over 10,000 micro-vibrations per minute through
the shaver head to gently stimulate the skin, causing it to ripple, which
helps capture and shave more hairs with every stroke. The hair is shaved
with high-speed precision using leading edge Gillette Blade Technology.
For added closeness and comfort, Braun Pulsonic incorporates a Sensitive
Flexing Head, which follows the contours of a man's face with twice the
pivoting angle of other Braun shavers, and shaves hard-to-reach areas using
touch sensitive foils that respond to the slightest change in skin
surface...
Braun Pulsonic features the world's most intelligent Clean & Renew system,
which automatically cleans, lubricates, dries and charges the shaver at the
touch of a button....For occasions when the Clean & Renew system is not
available, the Pulsonic shaver head can be washed under running water.
A review at
Popular Mechanics said:
The Pulsonic is still not as close-cutting as a razor—which Braun freely
admits—but it’s getting there. And it has all of the advantages of previous
high-end Braun shavers, like a chip that knows how much hair is clogging the
motor and tells the combined charge-and-cleaning station how much cleaning
is needed. The cleaning station, which isn't exactly new for Braun, remains
the most exciting part of the product, cleaning, lubricating, drying and
recharging the shaver when it’s docked.
The Pulsonic is also a stunning piece of industrial design, a sleek length
of rubber and chrome, resting at a tilt in its cradle (to help the cleaning
solution drain out of the pivoting head). Is it worth $269? Considering that
other high-end shavers cost about the same, and don't provide the slight
bump in efficiency from 10,000 microvibrations per minute, the Pulsonic is
worth it—if you're already in the market for a high-end electric shaver.

I'm still a wet-shave kinda guy. The Pulsonic comes damn close, but
there's just no comparison. Where the Pulsonic wins is convenience. In less
than five minutes I can get a nice, close shave and not have to worry about
cuts. That alone would make me drop $200.
According to
Gear Patrol:
We would be misleading you if we didn’t also tell you we’re semi-obsessed
with finding, trying and using the latest shavers.
The Pulsonic system by Braun might be something close to shaving euphoria.
It’s meticulously engineered with technology to capture every hair (even
those problematic ones) to give you a shave closer than you ever imagined
possible. It’s foil system also uses a base that cleans and renews after
each use (not once every other week like you do with yours now).

I was immediately impressed with the Braun’s build quality, battery life
and the charger and cleaner’s footprint is superbly small. The cleaning
liquid comes in a contained casual that clicks into the bottom and catches
the waste as well for simple and easy maintenance.
