    Great Electric Shaver! This is my "First" electric shaver I've ever bought as I've been using safety razors all my life. I was skeptical at first because of all the reviews that it doesn't cut as close as a real razor but what better way to disprove that than to actually try one. Off course, I did all my research first to see what brand is the best and this one was the winner! This shaver cuts just as close as my 5-blade safety razor. I bought this mainly for dry shaving and it worked great. No more messy shaving creams for me! If you doubt this shaver (or any shaver), try it first. Would I recommend this? Yes. Pros: Cuts close Cuts fast Works best (for me) when dry shaving Cons: A bit difficult to shave mustache area because width of shaver head.

    Switched to electric, never going back to razors.

    I've only used razor for shaving in the past. A day into my beard growing my family would complain about my beard stabbing them. 3 days of growth and my face would be irritated and flaky because of it. This electric razor changed all that. I get no irritation or the flaking it caused afterward. Life changing. I have very thick beard hair. It handles 1 day of growth well, 2 days it misses more. It's not a big deal though because I just go after the stray hairs with a trimmer. This shaver is not perfect, but it does an overall great job. I also use it on my head which has thinner hairs, and it handles that with no issues.

    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!

    The best electric shaver I've ever owned.

    This is by far the best electric shaver I've ever owned. It shaves very close and clean and is super comfortable and quite. I used to own a Panasonic shaver but after several years of daily use, it was time for an upgrade. I read great things about the Braun series 7 and when it went on sale, I decided to give it a try. The Braun with its new improvements never gave me as close of a shave as the older Panasonic model. After several months of use, I finally had enough and opted to spend the extra money to buy the new Panasonic Arc5. Best decision ever! I spend less time shaving now but still get a cleaner and closer shave than I've ever been able to with any other shavers. Will never go back to any other brands other than Panasonic!

    Now I shave every day...

    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.

    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.

    Gets Very Close, Though Leaves a Few Stray Hairs

    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.

    I have been one of those guys to use straight razors growing up! I wanted something that gives you the feel of a fresh shave but something quick and easy for on the go! This is the best razor I’ve found! Charge time is quick and cleaning of this razor is easy! I recommend this to anyone who want a cordless battery operated razor
