I am only drawing attention to it because other brands of electric shavers do not contain this flaw. These are called charging studs and when they make contact with the included cleaning station, the battery will instantly begin to charge. Much simpler than plugging and unplugging the charging cord from your shaver. The cleaning station is essentially a dock that cleans, charges and lubricates your electric shaver.

The 3050cc and the 5030s are good shavers because they’re made by Braun. It’s a company that makes improvements Braun Series 5 each time they create a new shaver. The 5030s has more technology than the older Series 3, though.

Whiskers that are warm and wet are easier to cut than dry ones.
