Product Description Some say, "You can't judge a book by its cover." Nonetheless, social and business fashion (however broad) characterize one's face as a large portion of an appearance.
The facial muscles are like elastic sheets that are stretched in layers over the cranium, facial bones, the openings they form, and the cartilage, fat, and other tissues of the head. The expression of a given face at a specific time is conveyed by a composite of signals from several sources of facial appearance. It usually takes over a dozen muscles to create a facial expression. All those muscles are covered by skin with hair follicles.
A face is full of many contours and edges. The Braun Series-3 370cc Men's Shaving System is designed to smoothly glide over all those nooks and shave your skin nice and close comfortably.
The new Series 3 has a breakthrough shaving head to give you gorgeously smooth skin. The Triple Action Free Float System consists of three (3) independently floating shaving elements that provide unprecedented adaptability, helping to maximize the effectiveness of the shaving system. The smoothly floating foils deliver a smooth feeling during the shave, and give great skin comfort afterwards. The 3 independently floating heads shave both short and long hairs in one go, for maximum comfort. The highly adaptive shaving elements add to a very pleasurable, smooth feeling on skin.
The Braun Series 3 also features a better ergonomic design. Its shape adapts easily to the user's hand, while the increased usage of soft material delivers a very comfortable grip and enhances control of the shaver. Easy to maintain and clean, the Braun Series 3-370cc Men's Shaving System is just about what every man needs to create an easy impression in any encounter.

Best shaver I've ever had November 21, 2009 Bruce W. Thompson, Inc. (Huntington Beach, CA United States) 130 out of 130 found this review helpful
I have used electric shavers for almost 45 years and this is the best yet. I started shopping because local stores no longer stock replacement foils and cutters for my old Braun 3000.
I chose this mid-range product because the 7 series is way too expensive, the 5 series tilting heads seem too gimmicky and their replacement cutters cost more than $40 even though the foils seem to be identical in design to those of the 3 series.
The Series 3 370 is bigger and heavier than my old shaver, but the heft feels good and the handle design and rubberized gripping surfaces on both sides make it easy to hold and control.
I almost bought a series 3 340, but opted for the 370 for just $30 more because of the "lock" switch that lowers one foil and the middle cutter to make it easier to get at the area under the nose. I'm glad I did, because it really does work.
What surprised me most is how much more comfortable the shave is with the 370 than my old shaver with its single screen plus cutter bar. The independent movement of the foils and center cutter probably contributes to that comfort. The new foil design gives me a smoother shave as well, and the middle cutter does a good job of scavenging the odd long whisker that had evaded the old shaver. (At my age they're not black any more, so they're harder to spot and so may grow to some length before I see them.)
Especially in the neck area I notice that I'm shaving cleaner faster and with much less irritation than before.
The pop-up sideburn trimmer cuts well and rises high enough that it is easy to see where I'm trimming.
Because all of the series 3 models have an indicator light to show when the battery needs charging, I did not think it would matter that the 360 and 370 can be operated while the recharging cord is plugged in. That little bonus feature did turn out to be valuable though, when I forgot to charge it up and the battery went dead just when I was in a rush to touch up 5 o'clock shadow before heading out to a meeting. I did not have to wait several minutes for partial charge to get me through a cordless shave; just plugged in, finished my shave and headed out the door.
Another bonus is that the Series 3 370 is much quieter than the old shaver.
The only negative I have noticed is that this model comes with a nice zippered hard case, but there is no room for the cord in it, just the shaver.
By the way, the all-black 360 model is functionally identical, but comes with no case. Instead, it has a plastic snap-on foil protector that also shields the on/off button so it can't get turned on in your shaving kit while traveling. For some strange reason, the 360 model costs $20 more than the 370. Go figure.
Final note: There is another Series 3 370 model listed for less money on Amazon, but it is an older design with different cutters and is not featured among current models on Braun's web site.
Love it March 20, 2010 Chris Cook (Tampa, Fla) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I just recieved this the other day and I love it. I was replacing me Braun 8985 that I was OK with, I'm picky and I've tried several other brands but the Braun always worked best for me. I like this model better because it does shave closer and smoother that my previuos model. Also its alot easier to clean under hot water as opposed to the clean and charge system. I've tried it once in the shower also with a bit of shaving gel and it did a pretty good job also. I did buy the 340 model about a week before at WalMart and it shaved well, but the shave head kept popping off numerous times, I don't know if it was defective or not but I did return it. I then saw this model on Amazon for 9$ more that the 340 model and it is a good improvement with the lock position for mustache shaving and the battery level indicator. The 370 also came with a carry case that I use alot when I'm on the road.
Best Shaver Ever!! February 3, 2010 Ronald I. Brigham 5 out of 6 found this review helpful
I am 73 years of age, had several electric shavers (including Braun), however, this is by far the best one yet. It shaves closer, is quieter, and I couldn't ask for a better one.
Braun Series 3 370 Shaver April 2, 2010 G. Robert (Beaufort, NC) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Had to finally retire my Series 6500 and am very happy with its replacement.
It is quieter and more comfortable. I am really pleased with the way it holds a charge. 5 days doing both face and scalp is a heavy load! Recharges in a flash.
Being able to wash it out still seems strange, but I'll get over it.
Excellent April 21, 2010 John Kay (Grass Valley, California, United States) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I needed a replacement for my old worn-out Braun. I read all the reviews and selected this one. I am very pleased with it. The floating heads do a better job in less time than my old one and it's impossible to get a "razor burn". Best electric shaver yet - and I've been using them for 50 years.
