Refill Cartridges CCR

This solution really cleans the shaver plus the alcohol help, what is the word. Sanitize your face, like the barbers do to the back of your neck. I enjoy it greatly

These worked great for my 790cc shaver. I don't use the alcohol cleaning function much. I wash thoroughly with water after every use, and do an economic clean once or maybe twice a week. One of these end up lasting me 3-4 months easy; I didn't have any evaporation issues like other people have mentioned, not sure why that is. Amazon "subscribe and save" is a great way to save money on this product, since it does seem rather pricey for just some alcohol mixture. They're probably refillable if you can figure out how not to make a mess out of it; although I'd sooner dish out the 10$ a year for these in convenience.

The good news is that since these cleaning refill cartridges are made by the manufacturer, they are an exact fit, and they work just the way the original cartridge does. However, there are a couple of things to think about:Braun's manual says to run the cleaning cycle every day. In reality, cleaning it every week works just as well; I can't detect any difference between every-day and weekly cleaning. As one reviewer notes, the cleaning liquid evaporates whether or not you run the cycle, but the simple fact is that the cartridge will run out sooner if you run the cleaning cycle every day. I remove the cartridge and put the cap on between uses and that helps a lot.You could just clean the Braun with the little cleaning brush. But what's the point of buying a shaver with an automatic cleaning system, then not using it?There are two bits of bad news. First is the cost. These things are very pricey; if you clean every day, and if a cartridge lasts about 30 cleanings, you'll spend about $60 per year. That's just the way it goes. You could easily pour the cheap or even home-brew cleaner of your choice into the empty cartridge, but that would be a VERY bad idea. Whatever you put in won't have the lubricants that the factory liquid does, and that will cause your replaceable but expensive cutter head to wear out faster. In addition, some cleaners would probably damage the machine.Another bit of bad news is the mess. You have to pry off two plastic lids then slide the brim-full cartridge into the cleaning base. It is VERY difficult to do so without spilling some of the fluid.Having said all of that, though, the fact is that if you want to use the Braun shaver to its full potential, you have to buy these cartridges. So be careful and don't spill.

I buy these for my model 565cc-4 shaver whenever I need them, as they are the only cartridges available. Pretty good price (cheaper than the walmart by me) and fast shipping. They definitely do their job well, there is a noticeable difference using these compared to rinsing with water. The only issues I have with them are that the lids can be stuck on pretty tight, its pretty easy to spill a little when you open a new cartridge (be careful). I've also read that the citric acid from the lemon added to the solution for scent is slightly corrosive. Not really a big deal since the original foil and cutter lasted me a long time (about 4 years compared to the 18 month replacement recommendation). Overall, these "issues" aren't really that big of a deal. These are just a couple shortcomings I have found owning and using this product.

This cleaning cartridge does it's job well, but a DIY cleaning solution is 4 to 5 times less expensive than even buying in bulk. The downside of the DIY method is that it's messier (because the cartridge needs to be cleaned every time) and more time consuming.Here's the recipe:1) Add 99% rubbing alcohol to the mark (the 70% stuff will cause hair to clump together and clog the drain hole)2) Add 1 tsp light machine oil (like Wahl clipper oil)3) Add 1/2 tsp water4) Add 1/2 tsp essential oil (lemon or another scent)5) Cover with cap and shake well

This product is used to clean and lubricate your Braun electric razors. They are reasonably priced and last a good amount of time. They have a lemon-alcohol kind of scent to them which I have grown to really like. These really work too. Sometimes when I don't get a chance to order extras and don't clean my razor for a few days I can really feel the difference. Shaving is much more painful because the razor starts to pull your hair more instead of clipping it.Don't get too complacent through. I would still recommend occasionally taking a brush and air can to the razor to get it extra clean.

So I have a Braun shaver. At first I thought I couldn't justify the costs of these cartridges because you can buy generic liquid on eBay for far cheaper. So I bought the eBay alternatives and they don't come close. Some key points:Generic Stuff:1. You have to mix with water and make your own solution2. You have to reuse these cartridges3. The liquid is much "wetter" which results in a wet blade even after cleaning is complete. This is a very bad thing.4. Smell isn't nearly as good.5. Doesn't clean as wellBraun:All points above are not issues.Sure these costs more but I think they are well worth it. Don't buy the generic stuff.
