Made in Germany? Hi, just curious where this shave is made. Is it made in Germany? Thanks-

I was gratified to see that the Braun razor was not made in China. I have no problem with Ireland and Hungary or most other countries. But I would like to see all manufacturers be a little more up front with where their products are made. Country of origin is usually very well hidden. As an aside, did you know that 50% of the apple juice sold in the US comes from China? I'm from NY State and that just galls me.

BRAUN HIGH END RAZORS ARE NO LONGER MADE IN GERMANY. I've been a long time fan of their reliability, function, and craftsman ship but today i noticed how the 3 and 5 series were marked down 30 dollars. I originally thought it was because of the upcoming holiday season, and was applauded to find that ALL of the product components including the actual razor are now made in china and it clearly says - designed in germany for quality.They've lost a lifelong customer. It disgust me what americans / europeans are allowing to happen to happen to all of us inside of our own countries.

According to the fine print on the box, the shaver is from Germany, the blade/carttridge assembly is from Ireland, the cleaning system is from Hungary and the charging plug is from China. Truly an international product!

If you pick up the cleaning station and turn it upside down (please remove the alcohol "bathtub" first) you will see, with great difficulty, "made in Hungary" in raised white on white, no contrast letters. Some other parts, like the shaver itself, could be made anywhere. P&G; bought Braun, so their first objective is profit.

All of the higher-end Braun razors are made in Germany. I buy many Braun products because they don't use slave labor countries nearly as much as others. The cleaning cartridges come from Ireland. When they bought Thermoscan, they moved production to Germany (from Indonesia, I believe) I realize that VERY few people care about this but it matters to some of us.

"It disgust me what americans / europeans are allowing to happen to happen to all of us inside of our own countries. "I agree wholeheartedly Keith.

I have contacted Braun and inquired about their shavers. I did not ask about Series 3, but: Series 5, and all Series 7 are made in Germany (with other parts made elsewhere). So I just felt it pertinent to post my findings here. My Series 7 from Amazon also said Made in Germany.

I don't know where it was manufactured. We had to send it back to a MD address and have heard nothing in 6 weeks. We don't know if they are going to replace the shaver or refund our money. No one can give us an answer as to when we will hear something about our defective razor. This is unacceptable in the age of technology. My husband had the same model Braun that he loved. After this experience we will think long and hard before we buy another Braun. Their service stinks.

Unfortunately no longer made in Germany or Switzerland. If I'm not mistaken, this is one is now made in Malaysia. I'm pretty sure only the reciprocating saws and I believe the grinders are also made in China.

It was made in China. Not a positive point in my general opinion but I stand by my review. It is still the best electric razor I have ever used!

The razor box said made in Germany. I don't recall if the stand and brush are truly US made. Hope that helps

Actually this particular model IS made in Germany. As apposed to the newer Chinese model.

The razor is made in India. When combined with the right blade this razor will give you a comfortable shave time after time. I use a shaving soap instead of a shaving cream. The shaving soap doesn't dry out and it cuts down on razor burn. As for what it is made of, I don't know.

This razor was made in India. I've been using it for 11 months with no problems, and it seems very well made.

I do not understand the question. I have been shaving with Braun Shaver for over 25 years, my beard is somewhat softer then shaving with a razor.

From what I have read, the razors are made in India. Where the blades are made depends upon what brand of blades you purchase.

It is made in Germany. The one with herbs tastes a bit better, but this one seems to do the job just as well. Remember to drink vitamin C juice with it!

Knife is made in Germany. Shears don't specify on them but even on the more expensive Classic line they are made in China

Yes mine was manufactured in Germany. This product like many German products will provide you with many many years of outstanding workmanship. There are lines of Metabo products that I have been told are assembled outside of Germany but as far as this grinder, it is still being assembled in Germany as of the date of this post.

On the bush head it does not say where it is made but on the oral B toothbrush package it says brush heads made in Germany

The razor is made in England, it comes with 5 Derby razor blades which are made in Sweden. I like this Edwin Jagger a little better than my Merkur long handle. Derby blades are nice, not too sharp or dull.

Hello, Two of these I bought from Amazon.com were made in Netherlands. After having heaps of different shavers in last 54 years ... (sounds ugly) this is not a tick short of being a sensational shaver. I am not paid to say that, I believe 3 weeks + of battery life and very efficient shaving system is great. I was a bit on mean side and did not pay for 3D model ... as I find 2D to be great. Strongly suggest it. Cheers,Srecko
