Works Well
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.What can I say? It works. Wet or dry. It’s easy to clean too. The battery lasts pretty long. No issues here. Saves time as I can shave while doing something else.

Keeps Face Smooth - Top Pick for MtF
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this because I’m transitioning to female and was looking for a shaver that would give me a great shave and not the razor burns or cuts. This delivers! It’s super great, gentle on the skin and keeps my face smooth. Highly recommend.

Gets Very Close, Though Leaves a Few Stray Hairs
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had this for almost a year, and I like it. I decided to buy the one without the integrated cleaning base to save a couple bucks. Honestly, cleaning it after shaving takes about 15 seconds, so I'm kind of glad I didn't spend the extra money on the cleaning base. I was previously using a regular Gillette razor with shaving cream, and decided to give an electric one a try. It's convenient being able to wake up and just shave my face without getting it wet. No, it does not get as close as the Gillette. But it's good enough for me.

Great shaver
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had a Panasonic that I bought almost 20 years ago and the battery finally stopped holding a full shave's worth of power. I had such a good experience with it that I wanted to stick with the same brand. This newer model works great. The blade housing is plastic instead of metal that my old version had, but this is not a deal breaker for me. I was worried that the head would be too large and bulky but it was fine and now I actually prefer the size. I have thick whiskers and the shaver cuts close and smooth. The typical problem areas require many passes, but so did a manual blade. If I wait a couple of days between shaves, the shaver cuts even closer, and it doesn't pull and yank he whiskers (except for once). The motor is strong and doesn't bog down when hitting the thick growth. The charge lasts for a week but you can't run the shaver with the plug (they say it is for safety since it is also made for wet use). The wet shave works great too. I've been using this for several months and suggest allowing at least one month (like the instructions recommend) for your face to adjust to this shaver before forming an opinion. However, my whiskers adjusted quickly, within a few shaves since I was already using an electric shaver previously. This shaver has only nicked me once during wet shave and it was probably from pushing too hard. The nick was not bad at all; I didn't even feel it.

Fantastic
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best electric razor I've ever owned, hands down, not even close to other electric razors I've owned. I have a tough thick beard and it takes it down to smooth quickly and razor close/smooth. It's amazing how comfortable the shave is. No pulling, burn, discomfort during or after shave. Only used the razor dry. Yes, a few hairs on my face remain I have to work a bit on if I have many days of growth but I've had the same issue on every electric razor I've owned, no big deal, just run the razor over my face on several different angles to get those.

Looks nice but not very sharp
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wish the blades were sharper than how they are. It takes several back and forth to reach the desired goal.

Posted .Hi there! Thank you for your feedback and 4-star review! Achieving a closer shave with an electric shaver can sometimes be different from a manual razor. Here are a few tips to help you get a closer shave. Make sure your skin is clean and dry before shaving. You can also try shaving after a warm shower to soften the hair follicles. For a closer shave, try shaving against the direction of hair growth. Be gentle and avoid pressing too hard to prevent irritation. While shaving, use your free hand to stretch the skin in the area you're shaving. This can help the shaver get closer to the hair. If you have any more questions or need further assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out. We appreciate your feedback! - F

Quality electric wet/dry daily shaver

Not bad, not that great either
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This works good enough to get a good shave, but I hardly think its worth the money. This slightly outperforms my old phillips electric spinning blade shaver, and that was like 20 dollars. The foil shaver part of it works best with shorter hair, once it gets so long youll have trouble cutting with it. Also it only seems to want to cut on the flattest parts of the face, and it does that well. But trying to shave the neck and less flat areas it really struggles. I usually end up using the flip up trimmer to get those parts. Overall its not terrible, but i feel like this was a waste of money. After having this for a little over a year it is starting to show signs of wear on the trimmer, it gets jammed up and then doesnt move every once in a while. You do have to clean and oil it every single time u use it, and that can be a pain, but it is easy enough. If i could go back, i wouldve just got a cheaper one.

Posted .We appreciate your feedback! A critical aspect of successful electric shaving is proper skin preparation. Ensure your skin is well-cleansed, devoid of excess oils and adequately moisturized. This not only facilitates a smoother glide, but also minimizes the potential for any discomfort. We’d recommend trying to shave both wet and dry, and at different angles, for the first few uses to find what works best for you as your skin adapts. Do let us know if there is anything else we need to know to improve this area of concern. You can contact us via Live Chat on the Panasonic Website, Contact Us option, Mon-Fri, 9am-5pm EST. -C

Close and smooth
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased it today and so impressed that I had to write a review. This thing is by far the best shaver I have owned. I have always been a rotary owner and am coming from the Norelco 9000 prestige. The arc give a closer and more comfortable shave. Yes, the neck is tricky but it always is no matter what you use. With the arc just pass over those tough swirls on your neck a couple of time and you’re good. I have a very coarse beard and I am 100% happy with the results.

Perfect
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The difference between this and the cheaper electric shavers I used is night and day. This one effortless mows all the hair off my face, the battery holds a charge for several uses, and it even has a cleaning mode, just put some liquid soap over the head and turn on cleaning mode. Easy to use and maintain, the display even says when it's due for a cleaning. Definitely worth the extra cost.
