Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is the best shaver I have ever owned. I have used Remington and Norelco and this new shaver is 10 times better. My face is smoother and less irritation and best of all it cuts those hard to cut neck hairs so much better. I was not sure I would like the big pivoting head but it glides over your face much better than my past rotary shavers.

I’ve had a Norelco for years but decided to give this one a try. I can get a clean shave in around three minutes or so that was better than my Norelco. The drying option is great as well since the alcohol from my previous shaver would be wet after the cleaning cycle and irritate my skin. Love this shaver so far.

Overall, it’s a very good shaver. It does a solid job providing a very good shave. The trimmer on back is also very good. It does a nice job on sideburns. I would not recommend spending extra money on the cleaning system. It requires a special solution and is easy to clean without it. If you do not purchase this with the cleaning option, this razor is an excellent value!

This is my second Arc 5 Panasonic razor and my third Panasonic. This is a completely newly designed Arc 5. It shaves extremely well and fast. Highly recommend this one. However, buy the razor by itself. Don't buy the one with the charger. I did and returned it.

Shave so close to the skin without irritation! Very easy to clean.

Panasonic Arch 5 is the best shaving experience eve. Irrigation around the neck line corrected in a couple of weeks. It may take up to 30 days for your face and hair to conform but it’s worth. No more bumps or irritation. It’s well worth the money!! Do it.

Prior to making this purchase, I did a lot of research on electric foil shavers for men. I was in the market for a safe alternative to manual razors. Upon reading and viewing numerous YouTube and Consumer Reports reviews on electric foil shavers, I decided on this model as a cheaper alternative to the Braun Series 9. I feel Panasonic provides more bang for the buck. (I feel Panasonic's cleaning station is much better than Braun's). Ultimately, I returned the product because I was not happy with the results. I primarily used the razor to shave my head and I was not happy with the results. I would have to use my manual razor to go over spots this electric razor did not completely cut. Just my overall experience with this product. I hope this helps someone to make an informed decision.

Not through the 'getting used to it' phase yet, but it gives an amazing shave over 95% of my face and head. Just a couple areas where it won't pick up the hairs no matter how you try - hoping this gets better with time. Overall pretty happy - no snagging or discomfort whatsoever, and I tend to wait too long between shaves.

Awesome razor. My father stated it was easy to use and set up.

Very close shave, easy cleaning. The cleaner is worth the extra money.

Have owned a Braun for many years and it finally bit the dust. So I got to looking online and read nothing but great reviews about the Panasonic ARC5, so I ordered it from Best Buy and it's truly been an absolutely great razor. Cuts faster and closer than the Braun, just hopes it last as long as my old one did.

Nice product. Easy to use and clean. Close shave. Would recommend.

Nice display indicator, very accurate, leaves your face smoother than the others, good price

This panasonic shaver has answered my prayers. For years I've been shaving my head and face with shaving razors along with the occasional cuts and bumps. Now I just use the panasonic every other day and by golly my head and face are nearly devoid of any hairs. This is a great device.

Very happy with this razor! Have been using for over a year and a half and it is getting to be time to replace the blades. It does hurt to pay almost half of a new razor for new foil and blades, but I have to say this is the best razor I've ever had. Smoothest shave other than a blade and shaving cream.

Absolutely wonderful shaver couldn’t have asked for better I was on the fence cause I didn’t know much about Panasonic making shavers when they are more know for cameras and tv equipment but I gave it a try and man this is impressive I got a very close and comfortable shave on my face and head.

Best electric razor I've ever owned! Best shave from an electric razor I've ever experienced. I've never been happy with the closeness of shaves from other brands. All I can say about this one is, Smoooothe! The cleaning feature is nice too. If you want a smooth shave, buy this razor.

Came from a Braun series 7 and there is NO comparison. This Panasonic shaves smoother, faster and closer than any other electric! VERY impressed!

This razor was life changing for me. I had been using disposable razors for years, not really knowing what I was missing with an electric shaver. I love how clean cut it gets, and the docking station is great for charing. It does such a good job of shaving,

I bought this shaver to cut down on the time it takes to keep my head shaved. After looking at several models, I decided to go with the Arc5 and get the cleaner and charger package. Its a little more money but very worth it.
