    Replaced my almost 12 year old Arc4 due to the battery no longer holding a charge. New model is much quieter and cut quality is amazing.

    Its worth the money. You get a smooth very close, comfortable shave every time. The battery life is exceptionable between charges and is easy to clean. Definitely worth its weight in gold.

    I bought this because I needed an electric razor that would not leave me with any razor bumps. I previously used a Braun series 3 shaver that worked well in the beginning, but gave my sensitive skin some issues. Bought a new foil, but it did not solve anything. Bought the panasonic higher end model and am really glad I spent the money. I I have not had any issues with razor bumps. The motor itself is very quiet compared to Braun. I love the digitial screen that shows how long i've used it and the amount of battery left. Also worth mentioning, the shaver auto detects the length of you stubble and will change some settings. I feel like the shave itself is very close. I had issues with the braun around and under my jawline, but not with the panasonic.

    Wow. I had used some electric razors in the past that lead me to believe that nothing would ever come close to the quality shave of a traditional razor and shaving cream. I finally decided to get an electric razor simply to have available at work, in the car, and for traveling. After using this thing for the first time I’m impressed. It didn’t leave my face all hot with razor burn. Yeah it took a couple times in some areas to get some tough hairs, but my skin and hair should get used to it in time. All in all it leaves an incredibly smooth close shave and doesn’t leave you with discomfort from razor burn. And it was like $80 cheaper than the most comparable Braun razor.

    Good razor. Foil could have a longer life, but shaves and trims well wet or dry. Got it on sale, probably not worth regular price.

    This is my first foil razor. Closer shave than my Norelco rotary razor and pretty quick. I have medium course whiskers and a couple tough areas to shave and this gets everywhere. Also, the charge lasts a good long time.

    Disclaimer: This is my first electric shaver. I'm pretty impressed with this shaver. I've only used it dry, so can not comment on how it does wet. I'm dark haired and have 5 oclock shadow pretty much all the time. This razor gives me about as close of a shave as I've had. One co-worker wondered what I had changed, and then they disclaimed, "Oh, you're clean shaven" I had to chuckle at that, but I suppose the difference is noticeable. I like to think that my other shaves were not bad, but were just not as frequent. This item does the job pretty quickly. Shaves take about 2-3 minutes. Cleanup (without the cleaning station) take about 30 seconds. It took 10 days of shaving every morning to wear the battery down.
