They are still widely available worldwide and at least for now, you can easily get them in the USA/Canada as well.

Braun Series 6 Electric Shaver for Men with Precision Trimmer

In short, I am glad I bought the 6020s, albeit with the recognition of the shortcomings mentioned in my above comment. It is overall a good razor in terms of shave, features, and quality if one understands its limitations and accepts those (See above comment).

It is noteworthy that the 6020s does not come with a cleaning and charging station or the new Smart Care center. However, you can use the newer cleaning and charging station that you can get some other series 6 or series 7 models. Accessories

Overall, the shaving performance of the Series 6 was decent, but again, rather underwhelming for a shaver in this price range. It’s a good choice for guys with sensitive skin, but as it is quite a mild shaver, you may need to keep going over the same spots because of the non-aggressiveness, which could still irritate the skin. However, the solution for this is to use a pre-electric shave lotion or other suitable lubricants (mild soaps or foams). Finally, if you’re on a really tight budget, consider the Series 3 as well; it shaves very similarly to the Series 6 and 5 and it’s even available with a trimmer attachment and combs (the 3010BT model). If you shave daily or every other day and the shaver is within your budget, then it’s a good option. But, if you have coarse growth or like to grow for three days or more before shaving, then this Series 6 might not do the job well enough or take a little too long to keep clearing up leftover patches.In conclusion, I am relatively happy with the 6020s although I lament the lessening of a formerly great product to one that is merely good. The negatives; It is painfully obvious that this was designed to reducing manufacturing costs. and that this was one of the higher priorities. Again, it is still a good unit but of a far lower quality than the older models. And while Braun’s previous releases were mostly rebranded, older shavers (like the Series 8 or the 93xx Series 9), the 2020 models are completely new: new design, new shaving heads, new accessories, and new cleaning stations. Two days is my sweet spot when shaving with an electric shaver. Daily is not good because of irritation, and more than three days is too much growth for many, although some electric shavers handle heavier growth pretty well. I did my usual three-week shaving tests with various days of growth, including two and three days and daily shaving. I also tested out wet shaving with shaving cream and head shaving once (once–because it did not go well).

In this guide, I will share my conclusions, covering all the important aspects (including how they compare to the previous generations) and hopefully helping you make the right decision. Another great feature is that it is made in Germany and not communist China, although strangely the box mentions that it is engineered in Germany but does not mention where it is manufactured. The way I read the manual I would expect the cleaning indicator to come on when it needs cleaning and CC resets the timer. But then again, if you constantly grow a beard or stubble, you’d be better off with a full-fledged, dedicated beard trimmer instead.

Frequently asked questions

And after using the Series 6 6075cc, I can confirm that it’s true, but there are a couple of important differences. As I suspected, the supplied brush is not terribly effective and rinsing it daily with the faucet on high has been the most effective way to clean it. I do from time to time use the brush from my old 5885 model Braun since that actually does a good job and compliments the daily rinsing quite nicely. First, the positives. It is quiet! When contrasted to the 5885, the difference is night and day. The 5885 hurt my ears and this is coming from a cavalry and armor officer who was surrounded by rather loud and sharp noises. It certainly wasn’t tactical!! The 6020 is very quiet and I can say that it is not much louder than my phone when on vibrate and a hard surface.
