Braun Series 3 370 Very Pleased.
This was a gift for my son, to replace a 17-year-old Braun that I also bought him. I read the reviews for many models and chose this one based on the positive reviews, price, and ease of use. My son tells me he's very pleased with his new gift.

Braun Series 3 370 Great Shaver!!
Braun Series 3 370 Great Shaver!!
Fast and power, are the words that I will use for this Braun Shaver, the time of charge is quick, the battery life is longer than others, with a normal maintenance the foil have a longer life, and the most important, if you have a irritable skin, this will fit you because the skin after shave will be without irritation.

Braun Series 3 370 Solid and reliable, great trimmer.
Braun Series 3 370 Solid and reliable, great trimmer.
I had a Series 5 for several years until the tabs holding the head wore down. I like the Series 3 I bought in November 2011 considerably better. It has a solid feel and lays well in your hand. It shaves closer than any of the half dozen or so electric razors I have owned for decades (Norelco, Schick, Remington). I have a beard which cuts down on time per shave but I still have to shave cheeks and neck, where it does a smoother job with less irritation than any other. Even on the first charge, the battery has lasted more than a month without re-charging. The head attaches to the body differently and that should solve the tab wear problem.
The trimmer alone makes this razor great. Instead of the usual straight extension, it cuts at a 90 degree angle with respect to the razor's body, which makes it incredibly better and easier to use especially on the lower end of the mustache next to the lips and below the temples. The razor is not in the way of your line of vision when you trim! In the past I also had to use a Wahl clipper as well - I no longer use it. About the only thing I liked better about the old Braun was its charger stand.

Braun Series 3 370 Solid Shaver for the Price.
Braun Series 3 370 Solid Shaver for the Price.
I was very excited to receive this razor in the mail. First, it runs through my facial hair like a beast. It isn't lightening fast, but it sure does get the job done.
I rarely ever use the "lock" switch to pop down all trimmers except the front one.
The battery life is decent, and will last about a week with an average of about one or two shaves per day.
I really like the pop out trimmer, and am disappointed that it was hardly advertised. It is very large, and is designed in such a way that it is quick and easy to use.
I wouldn't suggest cleaning this shaver out with soap and water, as it often causes it to become very un-lubricated. Braun includes what they call "formula oil" to remedy this, but the bottle is tiny and I've already used half of mine. So instead, I've been cleaning it by banging the head (which includes both the trimmers and the foils) against my sink, and then using the small brush to clean out the rest.
I wish this shaver would be able to cut longer hairs. Even with the middle trimmer, it still misses the tricky, flat-laying hairs on my neck. Oh well, no shaver is perfect I guess. I can just pop out the trimmer and use it to snag those hairs. But I still wish that this was the shaver that would be able to get it all, no matter how long the hairs were. Sometimes, if I have a long beard, I even return to a wet shave with a Gillette razor because that actually would take less time than the Braun.
Yet all in all I'm satisfied with this shaver even if I have my gripes.

Braun Series 3 370 Best Braun I've owned, really does the job.
This is my third Braun shaver and by far the best. I get a fast close shave with little effort effort.
Braun Series 3 370 Excellent.
This product is really awesome. Braun Series 3 370 is comfortable and very close shave. I would like to recommend this product to my firends.
Braun Series 3 370 Great Shave.
This Braun Shaver is without a doubt the best electric shaver I have ever used. It is comfortable and gives a very close shave. I love the feature that adjusts the shaving head so you can get closer under the nose. The recharge time is short and lasts for the better part of a week.

Braun Series 3 370 Great Shaver.
I love this shaver. I replaced my Braun 5720 and hoped I was getting a comprable shaver but this one is much better. I love the upper lip extension, it's quiet and hold a charge much longet than the 5720. Overal it's the best shaver I've owned.
Braun Series 3 370 great close shave without the nicks and burns.
It was time to replace my old Braun shaver (12yrs old)... so I thought I'd try something new this time and went with a Norelco which seemed popular. Unfortunately, on the first try it left my chin with a lot of nicks and burns. OUCH!
Decided to go with another Braun and got this one.. WOW, it shaves even better than my old one.. close and smooth. Love it!

Braun Series 3 370 Shaver
Braun Series 3 370 Shaver
I've been shaving with Braun products for the past 30 years and they continue to do a good job. This "middle of road" priced product is well worth the money, especially if you are already a satisfied Braun user. I don't want all of the special feature for self-cleaning, etc. that cost you more in the long run to purchase cleaning solution refills. Prior shaver was a swivel head type and I questioned this new style, but after shaving a few times it's been no issue at all. Shaves as close or better than my older model (however, not sure how much has to do new foil). As for the statements of allowing a few weeks of shaving for your face to get accustomed to the shaver, I would think this has to do more with transitioning from a rotary head style to the typical Braun style. When going from a Braun to a Braun, I don't believe it's an issue.
Braun Series 3 370 Overall, a good product.
Braun made a number of improvements with this shaver, compared to my previous Braun model. The ergonomics are better because the shaver head is angled from the body, similar to a safety razor, and the sides of the body are rubberized for a better grip. They've also improved the charge indicator system with LEDs that tell you how many more shaves you might expect before recharging. The long-hair trimmer is much more usable than my previous Braun, and the shaver case is better (my previous model had a cheap plastic case).
A few observations: I get better results by pushing the shaver up rather than pulling it up. You will want to replace the shaver head cassete at least every 12 months. (Braun mentions 18 months in their manual.) I used the first cassete for 10 months, but have decided that replacing it after six months is worth it for the closest, fastest shave.
