    I've tried Norelco, Panasonic, and Braun over the years. This is definitely the best. The Norelco didn't work for my face and hair. The old 2 blade Panasonic and Brauns were pretty much the same. This 5 blade design takes some getting used to due to it's size. It results in a fast shave since you don't have to go over the same area more than twice. Cleaning the shaver is so easy - soap and water versus the alcohol based cleaner required by Braun.

    This is perhaps the best shaver I've ever had. But it does take some getting used to. The shaver head runs at an extremely high cutting rate so you just have to lightly run it across your face; unlike some shavers that you have to give a slight press into your skin to lift the whiskers up into their blades. Just a light pass and wow, the face is clean.

    I've been using a combination of cheaper electric razors and traditional 5 blade razors with cream as the cheaper electric razors I've owned always left stray hair. Never wanted to spend the money on higher end razors, well I'm glad I did. This Arc 5 is great and I got it at a reduced price at my BestBuy. Extremely close shave, no pulled hairs, very comfortable to use, powerful motor and great carrying case. Not sure the experience can get any better but am now a believer!

    Since covid hit us the barbershop was closed and I didn't want to have any more tangled hair.. so I decided to go bald. I've had the razor for about two months. This is the closest shave I've had. For the first couple of weeks you will get nicks but after that my skin adapted to it and ive been nick free. I will say it is not the fastest electric shaver. The longest time it took me to shave my head was 10 to 15 minutes. Maybe its because my hair is thicker. But all in all a good razor.

    I purchased this shaver to replace a Panasonic ES-LA63. This was my previous best shaver ever. It lasted about five years. This time I had to stay with the same brand and upgraded from four blades to this five blade model. After one week of use, I've noticed my shave time has decreased by about one minute. Now it takes me about 2 1/2 minutes to complete shaving. I'm still on my original charge at 80%. Hopefully I will experience the same performance and life with this model.
