This is Parker's premiere Pure Badger brush, and a quality badger brush should last for years. The better the brush's quality, the longer it will last. The better the brush is cared for, the longer it will last. Like a fine Kent brush (costing 6 to 10 times as much), this Parker can easily provide you with a luxurious morning shave for about a decade. If you don't treat it well.. five years is all you're going to get, at best. So, protect your investment: 1) Use it for the first two to three weeks with WARM water (NOT HOT) so it can fully bloom.. go to hot once the bloom is finished. 2) Always rinse it out and then hang it to dry in the stand. 3) Use a good soap, not a facial cleanser.. those cleansers will wreck the bristles. Stick to a nice Parker or Col. Conk, or a Proraso shave soap. 4) ALWAYS use a brush tube when you travel... but don't leave the brush in the tube longer than is absolutely necessary. ... do those things.. and you'll have this brush next to your sink for a long time before you need to think about a replacement.

I don't believe so. This stuff appears like it will last quite a while before replacement will be necessary.

just make sure it is in the time they give you to replace it. i was so had no trouble. i bought from the manufacturer but as long as you can prove your date of purchase you should be ok.

The one that came with my vacuum has lasted about 4 years with weekly use. Rinse and dry, put it back in. I bought a spare because I noticed a small split in the rubber after all this time, and it might be good to have a replacement handy.

It is replaceable. If you use it less than 5 minutes per use a lithium battery should last a year or so.

Couple months, depending upon your dust levels in your house. I replace it when it starts to look gray from dust. You cna go pretty long just know that the longer you leave it, and the lighter it gets, the less efficient it becomes.

I'm about to order a new one to replace the one my wife and I bought before we were married, which means it lasted more than five years before we thought that it might be time to replace it.

I'm not really certain. I would think it will last me 5-7 years with how little I use and how infrequently I need to clean it.

It lasts a while. Didn't notice having to change and we used it quite a bit.

Supposedly it lasts for a year, but good luck getting them to replace it. These things tend to die, and they only replace it on a very limited basis.

I don't think you need to replace, just keep it clean and dry after usage and before usage clean again..

You can expect about one year depending on enviornment however I would wait till the original goes before buying a new one

I don't know. Just replaced and I don't know how long it will last either. But sure looks better than before.

The battery can't be replaced by you. It needs to be sent in. As for how long they will last before replacement, i don't know. A long time probably. I've only owned one for a few months so i can't be the judge on that. But my friend has had his for a few years and he uses it a lot. His is still working fine on the original battery.

Depends on the conditions to your particular environment. Mine can make it to about 6 months, but I change every 3-6, depending how dirty it looks when I check it periodically.

Yes, it does. The instructions say that it lasts for approx. 6 months and give instructions for how you tell when it needs to be replaced. I ordered an extra just to have it on hand.

Same as below. About 2-3 hours when new. Now after 2 years about an hour. Still works ok, so not too bad.
