I found myself looking for an electric shaver recently, as my trusty Phillips is around 12 years old now and it was time for an upgrade (last shaving head is a bit dull, but I do not want to buy another one as it is a pretty average shaver).
It goes without saying, shaver choice is to some extent individual, but most users report that they achieve the best results with foil shavers. Best players on the market are Panasonic and Braun, with Panasonic traditionally offering the closest shave at the expense of comfort and Braun offering the most comfortable shave at the expense of close shave. I personally have sensitive skin so opted for Braun.
With Braun the best offers are Series 8 and 9. But 8 is a glorified series 5, and 9 is objectively better in most aspects. Series 9 is the most comfortable Braun shaver which is able to handle the flat lying hair the best. Now series 8 could be had for around $260 on Amazon AU during Prime deals with a cleaning station, and I probably would have bought that but was a bit late for that feast. But now I think it was probably for the best as the Series 9 is just so much better.
Braun currently offers 5 years warranty with product registration and money back guarantee if you are not happy (I think, within 60 days but double check that if it is important for you). I should also add that 9 Pro+ is currently the newest Braun series 9 shaver, but all series 9 models performance is about the same.
With the codes most people should either have $20 off on Plus (my account had $20 off $100 purchase as well as $20 off $200 purchase, both were applicable and both were one off codes) and non plus members should be able to use the $10 off. I wish the codes were a bit better, would make an even better deal. As usual combine with cashback (which will probably not work with the codes - ha-ha) and discounted gift cards.
PS they advertise 2 business day delivery but it may take a bit longer depending on your luck.
I had one of these and it really wasn't that great.
I replaced it with this one and it shaves so much closed to the skin I feel.
