Now I shave every day...
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This shaver turned me from a lazy 1-2 time a week razor shaver to a daily shaver. which helps me keep a more professional look at work and keeps my kids happy not getting their faces scratched by my stubble. At first shaving was great, but after 6 months I'm starting to get some ingrown hairs and irritation. Not sure if the blades are dull or that the changing of the seasons is drying out my skin. Still recommend though - it's great.

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.

Best shaver I've used
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Shaver works great. I use it for my head and is by far the best shaver I've used. I've used multiple braun shaver and was a di hard braun fan. Decided to give the arc 5 a try and no regrets. I love it!

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.

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.

Remarkable Razor!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So happy I bought this! After trying electric razors 45 years ago, I was convinced that none could deliver a shave as close as a blade. This one can definitely do just that as long as you do a wet shave. It does ok with a dry shave, but the wet shave is the way to go if a close shave is what you want. I’m sold on 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.

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

Best Electric Razor I've Ever Used
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great electric shaver. I gave up on electric shavers several years back because I didn't think I could ever find one that got close enough without leaving way too much stubble. I feel like this one gives a shave as clean as a razor, while also having really great trimmer attachments. I prefer to usually leave stubble so the adjustable attachments are a huge plus, but it's nice to also be able to get a super close shave for the times I want one. Highly recommended.
