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.
