Summary: Great razor, close shaves!
Comment: I bought this something like a month ago. It was bought sight unseen. I like to keep my razors for more than a couple of years and my old Braun razor was old enough that replacement blades were hard to come by.
The Braun 9595 was a huge step up. I used Norelcos rotary shavers years ago, hated them. Then switched to Remmington razors but they were tough to buy replacement blades for after a year or two.
I was overseas long term and my remington razor died. I picked up a Braun at the suggestion of a friend of mine and it worked so well I'd never think of switching to another brand. But time wore on as did replacement blades and they became tough to buy so I upped the money and bought a Braun 4000 or 7000 series, I think.
Well it still works but blades are tough to buy.
I bough the latest and greatest and most expensive Braun out there. the 9595. I have trouble shaving my neck, the hairs tend to grow sideways. It's misey to shave even with my old Braun. But this new one just shaves the hairs right off my face, no razor burn, nothing! I turn it on and chean it after about 3 shaves. It's a bit noisy on intensive clean, however I'm usually taking a shower so I don't care and it really cleans the razor very well.
I did buy a replacement blade and will probably buy a couple more for when I go overseas again. I love the way this razor shaves. I'd buy another one in a minute. It's the best shaver I've ever owned.
I don't think it shaves a lot closer than my old Braun but it doesn't give me any razor burn either and that alone is worth it.
If you are thinking about buying one of these it's worth it. It just shaves so smoothly and easily and I have to shave every single day, so comfort is very high on my list and the hair doesn't grow back as fast for some reason. I usually have stubble by 3pm if I shave at 8am. Not with this razor, so that's another plus.
I also bought a pack of cleaning solution. My biggest concern is will I be able to pack the solution in my luggage, since they don't sell this in the country I work in.
I never thought I'd spend this much on a razor but I'm glad i bought it.
I hope this review helps someone out.

Summary: Best Shaver & Best Price Ever!!
Comment: If you have always wanted the brand new latest technology Braun Pulsonic razor I recommend you visit your nearest Sears store. I just bought one (unopened, brand new) on clearance today (Cincinnati) for $100! No kidding. Listed for $269. The replacement heads were on clearance for $30. You can get the "360" model for $85. Felt like a kid on Christmas!! It took about 5 minutes getting it out of the plastic packaging which is held in place by some weird plastic rivots. I thought it was going to be vibrating up a storm..but didn't really feel anything out of the ordinary for an electric razor. It does work very well...but as others have stated I did have to rub a little more in certain areas on my neck. The automatic cleaner/charger (in my opinion) is more a gimmick than a necessity. But I like "gadgets" so it is fun to play with.
Comfortable too with a cool sophisticated appearance. Full charge in under 1 hour. SD alcohol comes in the cleaning cartridge..and you probably could refill if you are inclined to do so. The alcohol supposedly comes with a fragrance and a lubricant which you may find more difficult to replacate since you don't have the exact formula.
What makes this story so interesting is I almost bought one at a local department store on sale for $219..and just by pure luck stumbled on the ones on clearance at Sears. Heck..even Walmart is charging $269 for these..and they only give their employees 5% off.
Good luck..and shop at sears next time you want a bargain!!

Summary: Best electric razor I have owned
Comment: I have been using electric razors for about 20 years. I have always stuck with the Norelco razors up until this purchase. Prior to this I had the top of the line Norelco. There is no comparison. This razor blasts through anything even after not shaving for several days. It is easy to clean, also a step up from the Norelco. The shave is much closer and it requires fewer passes. The only negatives to this razor are the noise and the trimmer which is just plain bad. I keep my Norelco around still just for the trimmer. The one on this razor is essentially a useless afterthought. Fortunately, that is not why I bought it.

Summary: Good Tech; Not so great durability and steep cleaning costs
Comment: I've owned a lot of shavers and like other reviewers, was looking for a better solution. Bought the expensive 9595 as soon as it was available. It does shave closely/well...which is the primary objective.
However, there are some downsides I've found in the year+ of ownership:
1) Very loud cleaning cycle! I have to do it early evening, because if I do it at night or in the morning, it keeps my wife awake (even with the door closed) and the dog also paces/whines.
2) Expensive Clean/Renew cartridges. You go through one about every month-6 weeks and at $6+/each, ...
3) Lately, the shaver just shuts off mid-shave after about 5 minutes, despite a full charge, fresh clean/renew cycle and a new cutter/foil head. Very frustrating.
4) Some of the silver paint near the shaver head has been flaking off. Wonder if it's from the clean/renew formulation.
5) The pop out clipper head (as of 2 days ago) doesn't pop back in and refuses to seat back into the shaver body, so I have to hold it closed while I shave.
