Panasonic - Arc3 3-Blade Electric Shaver - Black

For an electric razor the Arc 3 provides a close comfortable shave. I have been using the Arc 3 for a month and the closeness of the shave has improved with time. I have shaved using a pre shave, foam and wet shave while in the shower. Using a pre shave is the most preferred method during the work week. Applying a foam and then shaving resulted in a very close and smooth shave. This method does take a bit more time. Shaving in the shower using soap also resulted in a very smooth shave. Not having a mirror caused this method to take the longest time. I did shave one time during the past month using shave oil. This method did result in a very close shave the only downside, if you could call it that, is having to clean the oil from your face. Cleaning the Arc 3 is easy, a brush isn’t necessary. Using the cleaning setting (fast vibration) and applying a bit of hand soap, cleans the Arc 3 quickly. I usually let the Arc 3 drip dry. I use this method to clean the Arc 3 maybe twice a week on average. I do apply oil to the blades and foil, only twice in the past month. I only had to charge the Arc 3 twice over the past month when shaving every day and cleaning as described. I’ve been shaving some forty years mostly using blade type razors and electric razors of the time. I’m very happy with the Arc3, it’s technology, closeness of the shave and ease of cleanup.

I tend to stick with panasonic for shavers.. Easier to edge than norelco for example. I had an issue with original purchase but it was not panasonics fault more so best buy.. But not gonna get into that.. Cuts great just like the last 7 ones ice owned over the years.. The swivel head is awesome compared to past models as it makes it plush.. Would be 5nstars if not for the price.. Although i dont like other brands you do get more bang for the buck at this price point with them.. Just personally dont like the circle style shavers.. So go with panasonic

I use this to shave my head, and I've owned it for about four months by now. So I can't speak to how it works on a beard, but this isn't one of those gushing unboxing reviews that are worse than pointless. Overall, I'm very satisfied. It's not the fastest shaver but that's because the hair on my head seem to grow in different directions and trying to keep track of how best to angle the head for the closest shave takes some work. But once you figure it out, it gives a remarkably close shave, almost like a blade. It is also successful under my jaw and on my neck as well, areas that have defeated every other shaver I have ever owned. It charges lightning fast and is easy to hold and easy to clean. If I were to change anything it would be the protective cap, which is a bit more fiddly than it needs to be, and provide it with an actual travel case instead of a padded pouch.

I have been shaving with various electric razors for about 30yrs. So, I have seen my share of good and bad. I have had this razor for about a month, it does an ok job. It is not the best and it is not the worst. I used to have a Panasonic years ago and I loved it. This one does a good job except, sometimes, you have to go over an area multiple times to finish the shave. So, it takes extra time. This is not what I remember from the Panasonic razor. But, probably my biggest complaint, is with Bestbuy. After I purchased this razor, 3 days later they put it on sale...

Electric shaver is pretty good. I have owned several in the past. This one charges as promised, in an hour or less. The cleaning of it with water and soap is not enough though. You should purchase a lubricant because it does get kind of rough after a few uses. Overall, I am satisfied.

Over the years, I’ve used electric shavers from Norelco, Braun, and others. This Panasonic provides the closest shave of all. I was initially hesitant of purchasing this model because of the larger head, but that has turned out to be a non-issue. I’m very pleased with this shaver overall.

After years of using razor blades - I finally switched to the electric thing. No more irritation, no more splashes on my sink, no more cuts and blood. First of all - the shaver is light, easy to operate. Second - it has many useful features, which you can read about all over the web. Third - the battery life is good - with my stubborn hair - I am able to go through one week of shaving down to 40% of battery left. Four - the head is kind of bulky - I still need to use a "BIC" to shave off some hair under my nose. Other than last thing - it was a great purchase.

The Panasonic ARC3 blade shaver is one of the best electric shavers I've purchased. I've used the rotary shavers, and they seem to dull pretty quick. They also had to be pushed into my skin, and that caused my skin to burn. This electric shaver goes smooth, and now I shave with water and it is fantastic!
