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.

    Panasonic electric shaver worked great when it was new but when the blades got dull & needed replacing they cost almost as much as new razor.I quit using it because of cost.

    I bought the Braun but it was useless on my beard it actually broke the foil on the shaving head a big hole in the foil and one of the other top pieces. This Arc 5 was surprising it mowed right through my beard 14000 rpm helped it is well worth buying.

    Great Dry/Wet Shaver for curly hair

    I tend to get some razor bumps due to my curly hair. This razor is better than razor with circular blades. Cut is cleaner, head moves to the contour of the face well and so far no razor bumps or irritation using it. If you have African-American facial hair like myself and looking for a good shaver I highly recommend this one.

    This shaver greatly exceeds my expectations for an electric shaver. I get the closest shave that I have ever gotten from an electric. I believe that it is better than razor blades.

    Love that it is waterproof, making it easy to clean. And that the base has a dryer. Used it daily since purchasing, and still haven't had to replace any blades. Works pretty good for a shaved head as well!

    I like this a lot. I have super sensitive skin and this seems like it makes it a little less irritating. I still use shaving cream with it. My face does swell a little after use but I still think it's better than an actual razor. It's beautiful for sure!

    This is the best give I have ever made to my self! I just feel released from the use of regular blade shave machines. It is a little expensive but it's worth the coin.

    Love this thing. Ofc it's not going to give you the same shave as a razor...but my hair isn't overly thick and shave once every morning! The self clean feature is great, but it's pretty nasty when you change it.

    Best Buy literally was the best buy on this great and under-rated electric wet/dry shaver plus cleaning/charging station. It meets every star rating I viewed prior to purchase. I like it, I really like it.

    All but cleaning solution

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Razor works extremely well, shaves close and comfortably. Cleaning solution, however, is not readily available, and really doesn't do a thorough job of cleaning the razor. After several uses, I've noticed a residue left behind that needs to be cleaned with the brush regularly to remove.

    Very pleased with this Panasonic. Although I use mine in the shower, I don't recommend doing so, because the last one i owned stop working all in a sudden. I believe it did due to my exclusive use in the shower. May some rust built up.
