    At 74 years old, this Panasonic - Arc5 is by far one of the best razors I have ever had. For years as was sold on Wahl razors, but this Panasonic outperforms them all...for closeness, a total clean shave and with little to know effort. It's easy on the skin and leaves me with no skin or razor burn. Extremely well worth the $200 plus, I paid.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    This shaver in my mind no doubt the best electric shaver out there. It should be, based on its price. The shave it gives is smoother than any other shaver I have used, and I collect electric shavers and have tried many models from all the primary manufacturers. I have several Norelco's, Braun's, and Panasonics. I also recently purchased the Panasonic ES-LV61 A which is almost the identical 5 blade shaver except without the Shave Sensor Technology.

    Very good shaver. Cuts very smooth. I actually like to shave everyday now. Doesn't hurt at all and cuts everything easily. Only thing I don't like is where the power cord plugs into the bottom of the shaver. U can't take the cord out easily but it doesn't really really matter cuz of how good and smooth of a shave u get.

    My fear of electric shavers has come to an end. I have really sensitive skin and after a few weeks of owning this shaver, I can say that i will never go back to manual blades again. My skin feels smooth and my razor bumps are going away. Great product!

    Better than I thought!! Had previously used a diff brand and was less costly. Decided to go w this one and cannot b happier. Cuts so much closer than what I’ve had before almost like using a blade!! Saves so much time if in a rush and still look good. Also very easy to clean and charges quickly!!

    It’s ok , my 10 year old norelco rotary head shaver give me a closer shave. I purchased this foil shaver to see if their was any difference. It is easier to shave, you don’t have to rotate the shaver in circles as the round head ones, so its faster. Overall i use the panasonic first and then finish off with the norelco, get me a pretty close shave. Overall i give this electric shaver an 8.

    Ive had the opportunity to use this shaver for a few weeks now. Comparing it to the same brand just an older model. Shaver is fantastic! Using it for a mid day shave after a morning shave always left my skin feeling a bit burned. I gave this shaver a try and it was great! No burned sensation! I think it does a very nice job of giving a clean/close shave. I don't have thick facial hair.

    I upgraded to this unit from an Arc3 I had for about 4 years. I thought my Arc3 was great and didn’t think the 5 could be that much better but I got it on sale so I went for it. Let me tell you, the 5 is big improvement over the 3. The shave is much closer with less time spent shaving. I also feel like it doesn’t irritate my skin as much, but this could be because of the decreas in amount of time spent shaving. Overall I highly recommend this shaver, even over the rotary style ones (which I’ve also owned before).
