    Holds a charge very well. Multiple shavings on one charge. Gives a pretty close shave.

    Bought this for my hubby and he’s baby smooth every morning, but without all the irritation and bumps he used to get with whatever he was using before. I’ve borrowed it a time or two and it does a fine job keeping legs smooth too!

    You get what you pay for and this Panasonic shaver delivers like no other. Follow instructions and stay with it for 30 days if you’re a blade user. I prefer using it in the morning before showering as the oils that naturally occur on your skin act as a lubricant.

    The Best Available, but Replacement Heads are $$$$

    If you want the "best" electric razor on the market, this is it. Use it with a tube-type shaving cream (Cremo, for example), and you'll get the closest shave imaginable - don't use canned foam shaving lather, as it doesn't work very well with electric razors. Even a dry shave is quite good with this razor - use William's Lectric Shave for the best results. The only real drawback to this razor is the cost of replacement blades. Look them up before you buy this razor, as they are obscenely expensive. And wait for this razor to go on sale, and you can get it for $100. And, if you want the battery to last, only charge it to 80%. Doing so will double the life of the battery - and yes, this trick works on phones, too. And finally, this is the LV-65. Get it over the LV-67. Panasonic used a less informative display and removed features - all to improve profits, I'm sure. Both razors shave the same, but the LV-65 is the better package.

    This is the 2nd Panasonic shaver I’ve owned. I’ve had the first Panasonic for 6 years now - it still works and has the original blades. I really didn’t need to buy a new one. Best Buy had a sale and I decided to pull the trigger. I’ve owned multiple expensive Braun shavers that gave up in a year or two. These Panasonics work amazingly well. I will never buy another brand. At this rate, I may never need too.

    I have been an avowed blade shaver, although I hate shaving. It occurred to me one day when I was running very late that if I had an electric, I could shave in the car. A light bulb went off. I started reading reviews and eventually settled on this razor because its reviews were as good as other razors that cost twice as much. I have been very pleased. PROS: shaves well enough; the battery lasts me about a week (I keep the charger and an adapter in my car so I charge in the car); easy to clean; shaves equally well even if I skip the weekends. CONS: it's an electric so it doesn't shave as close as a blade, but it works well enough. It gets better over the first couple of weeks so give it some time. I shaved twice the first day, but not since. Also, this saves me time because I shave in the car when I would otherwise not be doing anything. It is not faster than blade shaving. I have a long commute that's mostly interstate so it works for me. It take me probably the same 7-8 minutes to shave with this as it did with a blade.

    Its a great shaver. I had recently bought the type by another company. I wasn't happy so I bought this one. the foil shavers for me work the best. Close shave, long battery life and all the features are well worth the money! You will be happy with this shaver. No complaints.

    Shaves well, and the trimmer is great, but it is loud and I am concerned about the long term effect on my hearing. On a decibel meter app, it hits 79-80, while the Philips I was using is 74-75. Decibel ratings are logorithmic.

    Throw out your old traditional razors asap! If you normally suffer from bumps or irritation then this shaver would be perfect for you! This shaver provides a close, comfortable and clean shave without the worry! Charges fast and is ultra portable I definitely recommend it! Heck, I own two one for my home and one for travel and I have not been disappointed yet!

    Short and sweet: if there is a better electric shaver on the market I don’t want or need it. Close shave, quick charge, seems VERY well made and totally reliable. I love mine!!! Confession - I just bought my third one. New blades cost $50+; bought my 2nd and third shavers on sale for around $100 (several years apart). Call me crazy! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

    This will initially appear intimidating if transitioning from an Arc 3 but the power and closeness of shave are worth it in my opinion. Design wise, it's beautifully crafted and higher in cost but Best Buy occasionally has these sales that make it "attainable". Having used rotary heads, razors and other Panasonic Arcs, this is a very good investment in my opinion; I hope to use it for several years like my previous Arc 3 ( which still works)!
