Braun Series 5 52S Electric Shaver Head Replacement Cassette - Silver, 1 ct

Pricey but it should last me for a couple years.

Price could be lower

It's what my husband uses and likes. We appreciate that you always have I it when he needs it.

Item was an exact fit for my Braun electric shaver.

refill head was hard to find so I ordered 3. It works great.

I have had 3 foils in a year and a half. I use the cleaning station after every shave once a day and still get a tear or hole in the foil. I always change the foil and cutter block together. Braun has replaced one foil at no charge. I agree with other reviews of foil redesign since the original that came on my series 5. When I had series 3 I would replace foil every couple years. I might try the new series 7 but hope for a better foil.

I have been using electric razors for about 15 years, since my wife bought one for fathers's day. I always wanted a Braun, thinking it is a better product - finally got one last Christmas. In the ensuing 10 months, I have had two foil cutters break/tear, cut my face. Hardly the recommended 18 months each. Hard to find anyone to talk to. Replacements are too expensive. Went back to my Norelco of 15 years. It provides a closer shave and a more gentle one. I am very disappointed.

I have a Braun series 5. I purchased the replacement head which states that it is for a Braun series 5, but it is not compatible. The blade insert is not the same attachment and the foil head is too small to fit. I've only owned the razor for 2 years. Has the model changed so much that the replacements no longer fit my razor?

Each time I buy a replacement foil and cutter the foil wears out faster with each new set. I used to get 18 month+ out of a set and now I only get barely 6 months, I use spray oil regularly. I noticed the foil design has changed since I first bought this shaver and it's the newer design that does not last.

I have a series 5 that did an amazing job for the first 18 months. When I replaced the cassette which included the foil and cutter head in one cartridge it lasted only six months. I am hesitant to buy another cartridge because of the difference in quality between original and replacement. Is there a way to buy the original cassette?
