    Best electric razor you can buy for 100.00 when on sale. Works best in the shower or with shaving cream, almost blade shave close. Not as good dry.

    I love this shaver. Gets closer than Braun etc for me. Good for everyday use - quicker in the morning than than a traditional razor. Not quite as close, but definitely more convenient.

    This is an excellent wet/dry electric razor with a very close and comfortable shave. I had a Braun previously and I find this a step above. Highly recommended.

    This was a gift for Father's day gift. Husband stated that for his thick stubble it does not do the job. He stated that he needs to use a razor after using as he ends up with a skin burn if he attempts to use to remove all stubble.

    Really love it. Used other Panasonic for years (Arc3, Arc4 models and now Arc5), have bought one Braun recently. Panasonic is 100% a winner, especially this Arc5.

    This has been a great, easy and fun to use. It gives the shave most closest to using blades. Used it under shower and worked pretty good.

    overrated underperformer

    Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This one was listed on several listings of top rated shavers but I have to say I feel like it's really been an underperformer for me. It gets the majority of the stubble off but really only after what seems like an excessive amount of going over the same spots and on my adam's apple it can almost never get it all off. Definitely don't feel like I have a clean shave even after going over spots several times. There's an insert inside that says something to the effect of "make sure you give us 30 days for your skin to get used to a new shaver", unfortunately by then it's too late to return so I'm stuck with this ;(

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    Finally got tired of the shaving cream and razor routine and hoped that someone finally had an electric razor was just about as good - and faster with no nicks.
