    Super close shaving

    After more than 20 years using high end rotary shavers with just fair results I decided to try this foil electric razor and I’m so happy with the closest shaving I’ve ever gotten. Besides that it’s also comfortable and easy to clean, even without using an specific cleaning device. It’s a little louder than my previous rotary shavers but it’s worthwhile.

    This is the best shaver I have bought. I've had the self cleaning one that run 150 to the 50 one, also the circular disc ones. This is the smoothest without burn on my fair face. I don't have very course hair and it gets it well where other types miss. I'm most happy with no razer burn. Rinses off with water, let dry taken apart.

    Panasonic by far make the best shavers. I recommend the version with the self cleaner, but you can get an equally excellent shave from the cheaper model so long as you wash it out each time. This model has something about beard sensing tech, which I can’t tell the difference with it on or off, seems more of a gimmick. Sadly replacement blades are not easy to find in stores, pretty much online only.

    I ave used many electric razors including rotary and Braun. This is the best razor by far. I also have used blades because the electrics never seem to get close enough. I can honestly say this shaves as close as a blade. I am impressed. A bit tough on the face like a blade so if you have sensitive skin just be aware this could be an issue.

    I have been using Panasonic electric razors for years. When my four bladed razor quit I bought the Arc5 which has an additional blade. It is clearly the best electric shaver I have owned and I have a very heavy beard. It actually shaves closer than a manual blade because you can press harder without cutting or abrading your skin. Buy it!

    This razor was not capable of shaving a growth of 5-7 days, no matter how many times I went over my face. The razor does seem to give a very close shave for growth of just 1-2 days. It was uncomfortably noisy when being used closed to my ears.

      We deeply appreciate you took the time to provide us with your feedback, as it helps us in improving our technology and services. Achieving a closer shave often involves shaving against the direction of hair growth. While this delivers smoother results, it's imperative to exercise caution. Begin with a light touch and refrain from excessive repetition over the same area to prevent any skin irritation. If you’re open to discussing it further, please contact the Support Team via Live Chat on the Panasonic Website, Contact Us option, Mon-Fri, 9am-5pm EST in order to determine how we can provide you with a solution. -C Panasonic
