    This is a nice shaver that’s very ergonomic. Battery lasts a while so you get multiple shave session on a charge. Work great when skin is wet/shaving gel. Had a bad time using it as a dry shaver doesn’t seem to glide on the skin which leads to cut.

    very good shaver, but a bit disappointed at many strokes it takes on an area for complete stubble removal. Despite more time required, the final result is a closer shave than any electric razor I’ve ever used

    Best electric Shaver I have owned

    I was skeptical about the online reviews, but this electric razor truly gives you the closest shave, at least from my experience. I have owned two Norelco rotary shavers (9000 series) for the last 5+ years, but I finally decided to try something new because even after chaniging the blades, the shave was just not as close as I thought it could be. I did my research and I was close to buying a Braun 7 or 9 series on blackfriday, but the price of this one just couldnt be beat. This also has a built in trimmer which is really handy to have. I do have to take a bit more time when shaving so I don’t miss any spots, but its not much longer than when using my rotary shaver. If you are looking for an electric shaver that gives you an extremely close shave, this one is for you!

    Best electric shaver and I've had a lot of them.

    I have owned numerous Panasonic wet/dry shavers over a 25 year period. When combined with a good pre-shave face scrub and Billy Jealousy Hydroplane shave cream, this razor will give as close a shave as a blade. The head stays sharp with normal use for about two years. I always replace the shaver as I've not had much success with head replacement and they are expensive. Easily outperforms a Braun which I purchased for a change but I returned to the Panasonic for a closer and quieter shave. Motor is powerful and recharges in an hour lasting for many shaves. This is about the sixth Nano Arc model I've had except the previous ones were four blade and this one is five. I like it better, cleans easy and only a few bucks more than the four blade; a high quality product worth the money.

    excellent razor. Provides a good and close shave. Only disappointment booklet that comers with the razor how to clean the razor it states to use the brush to clean the razor heads. Only problem is that no brush was included with the razor.

    Very happy. The razor gives a close comfortable shave. It is quiet and cuts quickly. It is also easy to clean and I do not feel that the cleaning/charging station is needed. The only thing I would request would be a stronger battery.

    I use this razor to shave my head and it gives me a nice smooth shave. Compared to the previous version which I still have, this razor is much quieter and just as sharp. It is much better than the other two major brand competitors which I have used.
