Product Description
A replacement Foil & Cutter Syncro system combi pack for use with all Syncro system shavers

Amazon.com Review
A replacement foil and cutter block, the two pieces fit Braun Syncro shaver models 7505, 7526, 7546, and 7570. These shavers need a new foil and cutter block every 12 to 18 months, depending on toughness of beard and frequency of use. Braun Syncro shavers are noted for their four-way moving head that captures and cuts more hair in fewer strokes. The pivoting head oscillates from side to side, and large foil holes capture more hairs. --Fred Brack

5 out of 5 stars Great savings over T***et Store price   July 17, 2008
B.Sigs
What a great savings! The in-store price at a local "super" store was $29.99--Amazon's price is $19.99. Thanks for the great deal!!!


4 out of 5 stars Replaced as suggested   July 8, 2008
jdps (Palm Springs, CA)
Replaced shaver foil & cutter block on Braun 7680 after 18 months of use. There is an appreciable difference between the shave yesterday & today. Much closer & quicker. Seems less loud also. Foil & frame fit much tighter. I may swap out sooner next time.
Medium coarse beard.
Shave 5-6 times a week.
Run it through the cleaner once a week.



1 out of 5 stars weakened 7000-series foil   June 27, 2008
Edward R. Arnold (Boulder, CO USA)
Be wary of the 7000FC replacment assembly. Much to my dismay, I went to purchase a replacement foil/cutter for my Syncro 7505 and found that Braun has changed the foil to the design used on the 8000-series shavers. The old 7000 foil had a "staggered grid" pattern on smooth metal. The new 7000 foil has the same "overlapping circles" pattern as the 8000-series foil.

This is a problem because my experience has shown that the 8000-series foil is exceptionally fragile/weak. This problem results in a hole appearing in the foil within 2-20 weeks after replacement. Here is a repeat of a review which I have placed in the Braun 8985 shaver category:
----------------
This is a followup to a review I previously posted about this product. It has become obvious that the foil on Braun 8000-series shavers is defective by design and/or manufacture because the foil goes bad WAY too often. I have used Braun 6000 and 7000 series shavers, and never had the bad experience I've had with the 8000-series shaver. I treat all my shavers carefully; nothing but my face, or tissue, touches the head. Here is my experience:

Oct 14 purchase a new Braun 8975
Dec 15 hole appears in foil
Dec 21 replace foil+cutter (from Braun customer service)
Jun 02 hole appears in foil
Jun 03 replace foil+cutter
Jun 17 hole appears in foil after only 2 weeks!

Really, at $28-$40 for the 8000FC foil & cutter assembly (you can't buy the foil separately), this product has become way too expensive to maintain. I'm going to take a clue from CR, which rated the Remington Microscreen a best-buy in Jun 08, and try the Remington. Hopefully it won't nickel-and-dime me to death.



5 out of 5 stars Best shave   June 24, 2008
R. Rash (Virginia)
Braun 7000 Series Syncro Pro / Syncro Replacement ComboRazor and blades are top notch. I alternate between a regular double edge (gave up on cartridge blades - to expensive and don't work as well as DE) and the Braun electric. The Braun is the best. I have tried Norelco and Panasonic and there is no comparison.I have a thick beard but with the talc pre shave, the Braun makes quick work of it. The cost is high for replacements but not as high as for Norelco or the cartridge blades which seem to be going out the ceiling, even at Costco's bulk price. It is worth the investment for the comfort and efficiency. Tip - shave with an electric before you shower in the morning.


4 out of 5 stars It is what it is   June 13, 2008

The product pretty much is what it is. It's a little expensive, but it has given my razor it's 'edge' back.
