Customer Ratings & Reviews

Just upgraded to the arc 5 from a Norelco rotary. Night and day difference. Shaves closer and is quieter and smoother on the skin. No regrets.

I've had numerous electric razors. I have to admit, this razor is the best by far!

I have this for over one year and I loved it. Specially when I have to shave often this is the way to go.

so far, so good. it has 4 separate cutting blades and has done a nice job. My only regret is that I have spare blades & foils from my other Panasonic, but they are for the 2 blade system...I should have looked more closely.

I'm very happy with the close shave I get. I like the separate settings for beards. I much prefer the foil heads over my previous rotary head shaver for cleaning. The razor head is easily removable. An indicator lights up when it's time to clean the heads with liquid soap and warm water; though I haven't owned the shaver long enough to experience that. Another nice convenience is a power level indicator for the rechargeable battery in increments of 10%.

Got this for my son for Christmas. He loves it. Gentle on his sensitive skin. He said he should have gotten one a long time ago.

This is my first time using an electric razor / I love it expecially being able to use it wet or dry / close clean shave

I luv this thing. Smooth head every time. My wife luvs it as well. She doesn’t use it she likes the way my head feels.

This product comes highly rated, and hy husbanc has used this line of shaver for over 10 years. The service at the store was outstanding. When it was found to be out of stock, it was shipped directly to my house, no charge, in 3 days!

Purchased this in August 2019 and was very satisfied. I had the Arc 4 and thought this was a nice upgrade. The shave was close and clean. I have a fast growing beard and easily have a 5 o clock shadow each day, so needless to say I shave daily. I also rinse the blades and screen after each use. Weekly I would perform a deeper clean with liquid soap as recommended. After about 2 months I noticed it was starting to miss some hairs on my neck and on the side of my face, which was not a huge deal. By November (about 3.5 months after purchase), I could not get a close shave at all. It was missing large spots no matter how many times I went over my face. I could not imagine that I would need a new screen and blades. I looked up the replacements and they were $55. I can't justify that cost every three months. I did try to contact Panasonic for assistance via e-mail twice, but they never responded. After doing some online research I did find that this is a common complaint with the ARC 5 and that Panasonic traditionally has poor customer service, so I guess that is why I never got a response. I picked up an ARC 4 at Best Buy during the Black Friday sales, that model has always performed very well for me so I went back to that model. Do some research before jumping on the ARC 5 to avoid disappointment.

Very close shave. It charges fairly quick. Should of bought this sooner!

This is by far the best shaver I ever had. it provides a very close shave. It also holds its charge for a good amount of time

provides a very close shave, is easy to clean and looks great

Great electric razor. Fairly close shave. It is comfortable and easy to use.

I have used all brands of electric razors over the years. I keep going back to Panasonic which delivers a very good product. I am replacing a four year old ARC 3 razor which still works fine, but the battery is starting wear down.

This is a well-designed and efficient product. Does a fine job.

Great Shaver-- nice & quiet - a close shave - no complaints here!

I love it. Very easy to use and holds a charge for a long time so I am not constantly charging.

Great shaver! Truly does get as close as a blade and is much more comfortable, fun to use, and easy on the face!

Awesome value for what it is. Will be buying another soon!
