Braun 8000 Activator Combi-Pack Foil and Cutterblock Replacement Parts for Braun's Activator Razor Models 8595 and 8585

The factory replacement parts make this razor like new again. Pleased with what I got for the money spent.

I purchased a replacement for my Braun three months ago after the original mesh broke and started cutting my face. Guess what, the replacement head is now broken as well. I guess I will buy the third one and start treating this as a more fragile item, but this is definitely not what I expected when paying for a high-end shaver.

These are Braun's own replacement parts for these shaver models and work very well, making the shaver feel like new when you use it, and lasting as long as the original parts.

My only problem with this product is the price, which in my opinion si a little too high. I recently purchased a Braun 8995 shaver, so I can't tell you if the cutting block really lasts 18 months as they say. From my experience with other products, most likely not. I shall have to wait and see.

Am I the only one having this problem? These foils aren't lasting me more than a few months. And, no, I don't push the razor hard against my face, I use it at a 90 degree angle, and I don't have an abnormally thick beard. I've used Braun razors my whole life and for some reason my 8595 goes through foils like nothing else. I've even had the entire cutter unit (motor) replaced under warrenty just in case that was the problem. Personally I think the problem is in the design of the foil as the thinner mesh just isn't as strong as the previous design. Is anyone else having this same experience? Is the newer 360 model any better?
