Customers are saying

Customers enjoy the Arc5 Automatic Cleaning/Charging Wet/Dry Electric Shaver's superior shaving quality and ease of use. The cleaning station and quiet operation are also frequently praised, along with its good battery life and competitive price. A small number of users found the trimmer somewhat difficult to use.

    It’s important to know it took me and my face a month to get used to this shave. That’s the amount of time suggested by the company to acclimate to the product. I thought they were just saying that but they’re right. The precision trimmer on the back is extremely sharp and precise and I love it. I could’ve bought that by itself. The shaver cleans a cuts really easily.

    I Purchased a Panasonic to replace my Braun series 7. The Series seven was having battery issues. The shaver is significantly cheaper and gets just as close to shave. It has a wider shaving area which I like. I also feel that it’s better for sensitive skin. I think they are about equal and closeness of shave.

    I bought this for my man & he loves it. He says it gives a real close shave & doesn’t irritate his skin & He’s gonna cancel his subscribe and save on amazon for his razors & shave cream. The only thing he doesn’t like is the charging thing is kinda noisy & he says is too big to angel it to line his mustache.

    Best electric shaver I have owned yet. My old shaver actually caused pain is I shaved more then 3 times a week. This shave does the job daily and my face is as smooth as a razor shave. Self cleaning is a boon. Less then 2 mins to shave.

    I have sensitive skin and my old shaver would always give me razor burn. I decided to buy a new one and read up on this one and how smooth the shave was. They did not lie! I use it almost everyday and do not a problem with it irritating my skin. Gives a close shave as well which is great.

    I recently decided to upgrade my ten year old Panasonic Arc4. The foil was worn through in a couple spots and it needed new blades. Since my old razor was very reliable and effective, I stuck with Panasonic. I am very pleased with the speed, heft, and comfortable shaving experience the Arc5 provides.

    I'm a head shaver and this razor works wonderfully for giving me a close smooth head. For the face it is only adequate. There are spots around my neckline that it just doesn't get smooth. It is, however, at least as good as any other electric I have used in the past. I definitely would recommend if asked.

    I previously had a Panasonic ES8109 (3 blade) which was very good. This newer model has 5 blades and has given me the closest shave I ever had with an electric razor.

    Only Need One Razor

    This handy razor has made shaving quick and easy. It performs well and, with the extendable trimmer on the back side, is the only razor I need. I gave this four stars instead of five because the washing solution is a bit on the expensive side. That being said, I'd still recommend it and would buy it again.

    It is too early to say. I divorced foil shavers > 10 years ago after my last foil shaver broke. Once the foil has a hole, it can't be used and can be injurious. The new one of course has more foils and have to use it more to assess. I use dry shave and it is great but not perfect for sure
