    This is the best electric shaver I have ever used. I keep a beard, but shave my head. This gave me such a close, and comfortable head shave! I’m honestly blown away. This has made me such a believer, I’m throwing away my blades. It’s worth every penny.

    Overall this is a good shaver, and I only have one complaint. I used Panasonic shavers quite a few years ago but have had mainly another brand in recent years. When my last one was wearing out I went shopping (on-line) and kept coming back to the Panasonic. It does a good job of shaving except in a couple hard-to-reach places, mainly on my throat. My complaint? The placement of the power switch. Too many times while I'm shaving I accidentally bump the switch. Maybe a sliding on-off switch would be better. Its annoying but not deal-breaking.

    Threw my Bruan away after only using a few months. Didn't shave, but pulled; not close at all. Was crap. This is a dream. I had previous Panasonic and should have bought instead of Bruan. This cuts close and perfect, keeps charge for a week or more, and cleans fairly easily. Only CON is it seems to need cleaning sooner than previous models, but easy and well worth the close shave. Price was right too.

    This is my second ARC5. This generation has given me the closest shave I've had from an electric shaver. I've had Norelco, Braun, and Panasonic Arc3 and an older generation Arc5. This version of the Arc5 provides a smooth and quiet shave.

    This is great, the battery lasts long, and it does not take long to charge. But it's way too noisy, and it's hard to shave under the nose, because it's too big. But overall, it's really good.

    Replaced an old phillips electric. Read the reviews at BB and online and could not decide between Braun and Panasonic. I chose Panasonic becuase I read it was as close to a blade as any electric razor without the huge rotary head. Reviews were correct. I love this razor. Easy to manuever, cuts close, trimmer is great, fits well in my hand and easy to clean with soap and water.

    The Panasonic - Arc5 Wet/Dry Electric Shaver has been working very well for me. I found it easy to hold and use to get a close comfortable shave with no skin irritation. It performed extremely well on my upper lip area. It is easy to clean and has an excellent battery life between charges, about 2 weeks of shaving time. The trimmer is a bit difficult to use but it works well once you get used to achieving the correct angles to hold the shaver in. The power on/off button did get in the way at first but I quickly learned how to avoid accidentally pressing it. The charge time is about 1 hour when the battery is almost totally discharged. I also like the travel case as well. This razor is an excellent value price-wise.

    Panasonic makes the best Electric Shavers

    I have used many different brands of electric shaver over the years and this one is the best hands down. You get a smooth and comfortable shave in a short amount of time. Note however that is typical of electric shavers you need to purchase cleaning packets to use with water in the cleaner. Over time you will have to decide if it is worth it to you to use the automatic cleaning feature or just clean it yourself under the faucet. But as a razor this one is tops in my opinion.

    The Panasonic Electric Razor gives you a excellent shave and love everything about it except for the on/off button. When you ar shaving it is very easy to touch it shutting the shaver off. I was also missing the cleaning brush and called Panasonic to replace it. They told me I had to take the kit back to the the Best buy and exchange it for whole new shaver kit. Which I felt was wrong and decided not to do.

    Passable shave on 1 day growth; fails on 2-3 day

    This shaver gives a passable shave on 1 day growth and completely fails on 2-3 day growth. Full Disclosure: I received this product through Best Buy’s Tech Insider Network in exchange for an unbiased evaluation and review. I'm a shower shaver (I shave in the shower) and I had such high hopes for this Panasonic Arc5 Wet/Dry Rechargeable Electric Shaver, model ES-LV67. I was excited about receiving it and was looking forward to using it. I hate writing a negative review, but unfortunately, this shaver will only do a passable job for you if you shave everyday without fail. And when I say passable, I mean it's just okay, not really even good. If you skip a Saturday every now and then or skip a holiday, you will get an unsatisfactory shave on that two day growth come Sunday morning. I had neck stubble catching and pinching on shirt collars that actually hurt! My dear wife thought it was funny. Now for the worst...if you shave Friday morning and then skip shaving the entire weekend, on Monday morning this Panasonic shaver will fail you miserably on that three day growth. You won't even want to leave the house. See the two photos below of the results after me trying shave my three day growth with this shaver. You can also trust that I know how to shave having spent over 20 years in the U.S. military. If you were to find you could use this shaver enough to wear out the blades, you'd then get to purchase the replacement inner blade and outer foil set, that lists for $110.00 USD! I don't know what else to say. I am incredibly disappointed with this shaver and cannot recommend it to anyone.

    I have had a Braun Series 7 razor for many years and it worked fine, but when it broke I had heard so much about the Panasonic Arc-5 that I wanted to give it a try. I have had the Panasonic Arc-5 for approximately two months and it works great! I am extremely happy with it, especially the fact that it is wet/dry and exceptionally easy to clean, and it shaves closer than the Braun.

    I upgraded from a Panasonic Arc3. The Arc5 has two more blades and it does give me a better shave with less effort. I've been using Panasonic Wet/Dry razors for many years. Obviously, I like them. My biggest complaint is that most of the razors I've had only last 3-4 years before something breaks. But if they didn't break then I would have to replace the blades--which isn't that much less than just buying a new one.
