Q: Does this model have the pop-up trimmer? I don't like the models that require you to swap out the foil cutter head for a separate trimmer attachment.
submitted by MWallace - 1 year ago
A: This model does not have a pop-up trimmer. The Braun Team
submitted byBraun - 1 year agoBrand expertA: If the answer is "no" then why does the item description say it has it? Please correct this.
submitted byTadd - 10 months ago
Q: does it have a TRIMMER for sideburns?
submitted by arthur - 5 years ago
A: Yes, Our 3040S Shaver has a Middle Trimmer for lifting and cutting flat-lying hairs, and a Precision Long Hair Trimmer for trimming your sideburns, mustache and beard.
submitted byTheBraunTeam - 5 years agoBrand expertA: This contradicts the other (newer) answer saying this model does *not* have the pop-up trimmer.
submitted byTadd - 10 months ago
Q: Item description says this shaver has the pop-up trimmer, but someone in this Q&A section asked if it has it, you replied "no." Which is it? Please correct either. It's the reason I want this model.
submitted by Tadd - 10 months ago
A: Yes, this shaver has a long hair trimmer.

Q: what is the difference between the two 3000 serries shavers at Target
submitted by Rosef - 1 year ago
A: Great question. Typically, the differences between models are what comes with the device.
submitted byBraun - 1 year agoBrand expert
Q: Can a woman use this shaver for legs and underarms without the razor causing ingrown hair "bumps" or razor burn?
submitted by Lisa - 1 year ago
A: Yes, women can use this to safely shave their legs. However, the results may not be as good because it's designed to remove facial hair.
submitted byBraun - 1 year agoBrand expert
Q: What is the life of the batter(y/ies), and what happens when they, eventually, die? (i.e., can the consumer replace the batteries?)
submitted by skaizun - 2 years ago
A: We'd expect our shavers to last 3-5 years, depending on usage, care, and maintenance. To replace the batteries, the device must be taken apart by a trained person and should not be attempted by a consumer. Please contact an authorized Braun Service Center to have your battery replaced, which you can do so by visiting our Braun Service website.
submitted byBraun - 1 year agoBrand expert
Q: Can the foils be replaced on the head
submitted by 32S 32B - 2 years ago
A: Yes. The foil and cutterblock should be replaced at least every 18 months.
submitted byBraun - 2 years agoBrand expert
Q: Where is this product manufactured?
submitted by johnnyA - 2 years ago
A: This shaver is made in China.
submitted byBraun - 2 years agoBrand expert
Q: What is the meaning of the 2 green lights when charging and using. I understand the red light meaning the battery is discharged.
submitted by TommyC - 2 years ago
A: During use and while charging, the green led will blink. Once the shaver is fully charged, the green led will shine permanently.

Barely does any shaving. Exfoliated beforehand, tried dry, wet, all different directions, circular motions, different amounts of pressure, washing the head of any excess shaving cream and hair, on different lengths of hair, etc. Eventually after what felt like at least 20 minutes I got most of the hair on my face but I was left with patches of hair on my face and neck that i had to remove with my safety razor. The only saving grace is the popup trimmer on the back which can remove hair faster at the risk of nicking yourself if you’re not careful. would only recommend using it to shorten the length of thick patches of hair then cleanly removing the rest with a cartridge razor or safety razor. But at that point you should instead buy an electric hair trimmer.

Somehow Braun has designed a razor that doesn't shave. I ran it over my face 50 times and it doesn't cut anything. Useless paperweight.

1 reply from Braun team - 7 months ago
At Braun, we're all about exceeding expectations, so we're truly sorry to hear that you didn't get the results you were hoping for. While it may take your skin a few weeks to adjust, it's best to taut your skin, and shave against the grain while holding the shaver at a right angle. This may help improve future uses, but we'd like to hear from you about this and help. Please call us at 800-272-8611.

I purchased it and thought it was giving me a pretty close shave. But then, after about a week, it conked out altogether!!! I thought it just needed recharged, but now it still doesn't work at all!!!!! TERRIBLE PRODUCT!!!
1 reply from Braun team - 1 year ago
As you can imagine, we expect your 3040s to last far longer than a week. Be assured this isn't what we expect with our quality checks, so we're glad you shared your experience. If you have not done so already, try another outlet and fully charge/drain your device multiple times. This may help it start back up. For further help, we ask that you please call us at 800-272-8611.

Tasha - 1 year ago, Verified purchaser
Got this for my son. He said it barely cut and it hurt at times.
1 reply from Braun team - 1 year ago
Tasha your sons safety and satisfaction are our top priority. We realize that facial hair can be as tough as copper wire, so we crafted this shaver to remove that hair and deliver an exceptional smooth shaving session. We're sorry to hear about this, but know this isn't what we expect with our safety checks. While we're sure your son knows this already, for the best results with this shaver, we suggest he shave on dry skin, hold the shaver at a right angle, taut the skin, and shave against the grain making sure not to apply too much pressure. This should lead to smooth results, and not hurt, but please keep in mind that it may take awhile for his skin to adjust to this new shaver. Regardless, we'd like to make a detailed report to our team. Please have him call us at 800-272-8611.

Don't waste your money. won't cut your neck hair and you have to make an obscene amount of passes to trim any hair whatsoever. The only thing that works well is the buzzer on the back end
1 reply from Braun team - 2 years ago
We're sorry this was your experience, Cameron. We can assure you that our shavers go through strict quality checks to ensure that you can enjoy the best possible shaving results with them. As well, a lot of thought has gone into their design. We'd like to mention that it can take up to 3 weeks for your skin to adjust to a new shaver. As well, we suggest making sure you're holding your shaver at a 90 degree angle while stretching out the skin and shaving against the direction of hair growth. We hope this is helpful. We'll be sure to share your comments with our team, and we'd also be happy to provide you with any further assistance. Please give us a call at (800) 272-8611 when you have a chance.

This razor gives a reasonably close shave with no irritation. Not so great on the neck, which needs more attention, but better overall than rotary razors I’ve used.
