Braun Original SmartCare Shaver Care Centre Refill Cartridges, 6 Pack - 3-in-1 Formula, Hygienic Cleaning, Removes Hair & Skin Particles, Cleans 10x Better Than Water

I was staggered that the store that sold the shaver [ OK-it was B***s] do not sell the very important replacements for the cleaner that it such a feature of this model. They seemed to have no interest in the steady revenue potential of people like me needing to pop by very few months to get a new cartridge! Well - Amazon did not disappoint! There it was and a good price too - so I bought a pack. The lack of instructions - neither the original nor the replacements explained the knack of getting the old one out without making a mess and there is no advice on recycling and it would seem desirable and economically worth accepting returns for refilling or else - best of all? - selling the fluid for users to refill the cleaning tank maybe? The repacement unit is fine! It is good to have a sanitised, clean, fresh-smelling shaver but if I had realised that it would be a chore to get refills etc. , I may have opted for another model and used tapwater! Amazon has made it simple to obtain and saved a lot of chasing round shops to find refills because it will not function without , once the shaver cleaner decides it is time to change the liquid!

Whilst initially I felt this could be another unnecessary expense, the Braun clean and renew cartridges and system have kept my series 9 shaver like new for over 7 years. Infact I only recently in the last month decided to change the foil, the original one was still going strong. I put this down to the convenience and formulation of these refill cartridges. Not only do they help clean the shaver head and foil automatically without the fuss and mess, they lubricate the blades and cutting head, minimise bacteria and smell great! I tend to get these in a multipack as they offer better value (especially during sales) and each cartridge usually lasts around 2 to 3 months with daily shaving. Once the cartridge has expired the smartcare station won't allow you to continue until you replace it (not sure how it knows this!). After removing the cartridge I usually empty out the yucky waste liquid content before recycling the plastic cartridge. Fitting a new one requires a firm pull to remove the covers and then it slides into place inside the cleaning station. It has helped to keep my series 9 in tip top condition and protect my investment. Thoroughly recommended for fuss free shaver cleaning and protection.

I bought these after reading reviews that said they do not fit in the old cleaning unit, I was going to use them to refill the older design of cartridge, I tried one out of curiosity and they do fit but you have to guild them in carefully to make sure they fit correctly. Knocked a star off because they are still too expensive and should be refillable.

A name you can trust to do the job properly. I don't care about the scent and they last as long as they should. I hope they're recyclable but my shaver is hygienically clean.

Great price and works perfectly with the cleaning station

This is a good product for cleaning Braun shavers when used with the SmartCare centre. Keeps the shaver clean.

These original cartridges do a fantastic job of cleaning my Braun S9, to the extent that it feels like picking up a brand new shaver every day. They're easy to install, with a quick slot in / slot out process whenever one runs out, and they fit perfectly in the S9 cleaning station which sits nicely tucked away in a corner. The cleaning cycle runs quickly and effectively, with the wash and dry being over in just a few minutes, and then the shaver being thoroughly clean and ready to use next time it is needed. The cartridges last about 30 days, and in my experience they last longer when I wash every day and leave the shaver in the station while not in use. It's as if it reduces exposure to the air, and slows down the evaporation, but 30 days is more than adequate for me. Be careful when you pull the plastic bung before installation - you need to pull with a smooth and controlled action, and if you can avoid sudden jerks then you'll keep more cleaning product in the cartridge, so it will last you longer.

They absolutely do not last two months. I have been using the system since 2017. All my orders have been from Amazon, so I was easily able to find my orders. Between March 22 and Jan 26 (and this excludes the Jan 26 order - I’m only counting the ones actually used in that time), I’ve used 54 cartridges or 9 packs of six. Over 46 months. That doesn’t count holidays (where the system goes unused) nor times when it was unused because they had run out (again). That’s 1.17 cartridges per month or 26 days per cartridge. Apart from the environmental unfriendliness and the cost, it’s a good system. But, Braun, don’t pretend that these things last two months. They don’t.

مرحبا شكرا لك

Sehr gutes Produkt!

Toujours d'excellente qualité mais un peu cher tout de même

Kostet Geld, aber es ist nichts umsonst. Auf alle Fälle sind sie ihr Geld wert, weil sie meinen Rasierapparat exzellent reinigen und ich nicht zusätzliches noch etwas machen muss. Die Folge sind fehlende Hautheizungen und ein gutes RasurErgebnis.

Item came without any issues. Although I wish it would have been sooner
