    I like it a lot. Good close shave but it takes longer than other shavers, coming from a Norelco shaver. It also leaves hair everywhere when using the trimmer. I wish it wasn’t so messy. Haven’t used the base cleaner yet, so far just running it under water.

    The most below average $200 shaver you can buy.

    The good: - it technically cuts your facial hair - it looks nice The bad: - it takes twice as long to do a job half as well as cheaper competition from other companies. (Granted, everyone's face is different so your experience may vary, but for my roundish face this is not an ideal shaver.) - below average battery life (mine drops 10% after every five minute shave) - its handle is overly narrow which makes it slightly tedious and uncomfortable to hold (and I have small hands) - the pop-out trimmer is too small and close to the rest of the unit, making accurate trims harder than necessary - the blades are maybe a bit too close to your face; I get more micro-cuts from this shaver than all the others I've used. (Again, everyone's face is different.) - it's $200 and is outperformed by shavers half its price Again, experiences will vary, but I've never been genuinely disappointed in a shaver before. I'm already looking for a replacement after owning this one for less than eight months.

    replacing an older model with this one is striking. Great shave, quiet, new design to the cleaning base works very well. Highly recommended.

    Love it very close shave but have to be patient like any other foil shaver. My only complaint is cost of cleaning solution for tank . Will recommend to all my family and friends.

    I get an amazing shave! I had a Braun Series 9 and the Panasonic IS better. I use shave oil and cream for a wet shave. It’s very close and non irritating.

    Great electric shaver. Very close shave. The only suggestion I would make is that if you have sensitive skin to use some type of pre-shave first. It helps.
