I do not know! I think if I were you Kak, I would contact the Norelco website, to find out the answers to your questions.. I hope this was of some help to you!!

My Braun coffee maker is model # 3105. The brochure doesn't mention any other model no. You might try calling BRAUN at 800-272-8611.Simply Jane

Even though they are a leading distributor in Washington state, the Norpro kitchen gadgets are made in China. Some of the design specifications come from countries such as Scandinavian countries to India.

It is made in Poland and sold from a source in Japan. My understanding is that unfortunately the Braun hand blender is no longer sold in The USA. I love mine!

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.

I have the Braun 360 and I am satisfied with it; it shaves close enough and is not too aggressive on the skin. (My Remington MS2-390 shaves closer in fewer passes, but one needs some soothing after-shave gel afterwards.) I do not think the Braun Pulsonic is worth the extra cost. I believe the vibrating head of the Pulsonic is mostly a marketing gimmick. Apparently Norelco (owned by Philips, Netherlands) thinks so too, because in December 2007 they initiated a lawsuit against Braun (owned by Procter and Gamble) in Federal Court (Southern District of NY) claiming false and misleading advertising in Braun's Pulsonic advertisements. See http://www.reuters.com/article/consumerproducts-SP/idUSN1744077120071218 and http://cpglitigation.blogspot.com/2007/12/philips-alleges-false-advertising-of.html It is interesting to note that Braun's immediate parent Gillette (Gillette in turn is owned by P&G), was successfully sued a few years ago by Schick in Connecticut for false and misleading advertising of its battery-powered hand razor. Caveat emptor!

HQ55 heads. I have three Norelco electric razors. At first I could not fine replacements heads so I call Philips (Norelco) and ask then. The person told me that the HQ 55 would work but to make sure I would call them. There were very helpful. 1 800 243-3050 (Philips)

I'm glad I was able to help. A quick check of Braun's own site shows that there are only two current models of the Pulsonic: the 9585 and the 9595. Things do get confusing on Amazon's site since it appears that any merchant can add an item that already exists, with a sightly different title and it becomes a separate item. A search for Braun Pulsonic pulls up 4 different listings for the 9595 on the first page that are the same thing. One has the CC, one doesn't, one is cordless, another with an LCD... All the same.

Big difference, the 790 can be used plugged in, but the 799 can only be used if it is recharged.It's on the Braun website (US site for 790, Euro site for 799)

Not sure - I bought this for my husband - I cannot remember what his is exactly. If you go to the Braun site it will tell you and then you can order it on Amazon much cheaper.

Chris Schuepfer has an excellent internet comparison entitled "Philips 1250x vs 1280x vs 1290x - Best Electric Shavers". Sorry, Amazon won't allow me to give the exact URL but if you search that title you'll find it.

Per the Phillips Norelco website and the information I received with my razor the HQ55 heads have been replaced with the HQ56. Check this web page a little over half way down the page and you will find the 6940. http://www.usa.philips.com/c/norelco-shaving-heads/298641/cat/

Yes. I went to check the bottom of the unit and it says "Made in Germany". Definitely a good machine if you are thinking about buying... we've used ours quite heavily for several years.
