What a great shaver!!!!
Fantastic electric foil shaver!! I bought this and a couple other more expensive brands/types to find out which would give me the closest head shave. This one wins hands down. It's better than the high dollar multi-blade foil razors that are 3 times the price, way better than the skull shaver, and better than a good multi-blade Mach razor. I like my head to be as smooth as a baby's butt.........and this guy can do it quickly. The reason it works so well and shaves so close is that it only has one foil. It's one big flexing foil with a blade that cuts over the full semi-circle, so it cuts no matter which part of the foil the hair comes in contact with. The multi-foil razors only cut over a small angle of the curved foil, so you have to orient them to the changing surface of your skin all the time. This one cuts at any angle.........and the holes in the foil on this razor are BIG.....so your hair easily fits thru and gets cut. It shaves much closer than the skull shaver, and does it quicker and quieter for about $80 bucks less! Compared to the multi-blade Mach-type razor it shaves as close if not closer. How can that be? Simple..........because the foil keeps the blades from contacting your skin you can push the razor into your skin harder than you can a Mach-type with exposed razor blades, which if you use a lot of pressure will cut and nick the heck out of your noggin'. It's also easy to clean and doesn't get hot as you use it. So it's the best performer for a head shave, is cheap, but it isn't rechargeable. I figured that would be a show-stopper, as I didn't want to have to buy AA batteries all the time.........but after reading the reviews that kept mentioning how long the batteries last........I figured I'd give it a try. I've had it about a month now, use it every morning for about 5 minutes......and it runs as strong now as the day I bought it. Really. I don't know how it uses so little energy, but I can see why people claim the batteries last for many months! And lastly.........it's smooth! The motor just hums compared to the other razors, especially the skull shaver, which sounds and vibrates like the motor cost a buck. The only thing I can't comment on is how much the replacement foil and blades are..........this might be one of those things where it's cheaper to just buy a new razor than to replace the foil and blades. I hope not, but we'll see when I get there. Honestly, I expected this cheap electric shaver to probably be a piece of junk........but boy was I wrong. This is the only one I use now, and for the price it just blows the competition away. Incredible!!

Nice Shave
I have shaved with a razor for nearly 40 years. I've seen razors go from single blade to twin blade to triple blade, and even more. Every year the blades get more ridiculous in price. Considering the price of my triple blade razors, I decided to try an electric shaver. I was really surprised to find a highly rated shaver that cost less than a pack of my triple blades. But with the Panasonic name on it, I had to give it a try. I not only shave my face, I shave my entire head, except for my goatee and eyebrows. So this little shaver gets a good workout. And I'm used to baby smooth shaves. I shave against the grain, so I leave no stubble at all. The directions with this shaver tell former blade users to use the shaver a while, and let your skin get used to the cut. And they're right. Not only does the skin take a little time to adjust from a blade shave to a razor shave, you have to learn about which angle cuts best, and how much pressure to use while shaving. The results after one month; I get a shave very comparable to my triple blade razor, in about the same amount of time. The battery has lasted for the entire month, with nearly every day use. Cleaning takes a couple of minutes with the enclosed brush. I have not tried using the shaver 'wet', although it is said to be a 'wet/dry' shaver. I prefer to keep mine dry. I have fairly oily skin, and I don't wash my face before shaving. I feel the natural skin oils are a good lubricant. So after buying a $15 shaver, I'm saving on shaving cream and blades, and only replacing the two AA batteries about once a month. From a cost standpoint, it's very economical. The quality of shave is excellent. The shaver itself seems well made and dependable. And if I have one complaint, it's that I wish it had a trimmer blade, for evening up the edges of my goatee. But I can do that with my razor in about a minute, about once a month. So I have to say, this shaver is everything it should be, and maybe a little better. Definitely a good buy, and a smart purchase.

I shave daily and tend to prefer the small travel shavers as they do a quick, decent job. I have finer hair and the growth isn't dense. This review is for those who don't grow wire brushes on their face. The immediate feel of the product is that it has decent weight to it - not overly heavy, but just feels nice in the hand (ie. doesn't feel cheap). It feels powerful and the motor is relatively quiet (nothing is super quiet, otherwise it's dead!). I shave daily so it does a great job of giving a very smooth shave - sometimes it requires one pass, sometimes a couple of passes, but overall, it's quick and did I mention the end result is smooth? Totally happy with the purchase. My partner on the other hand, couldn't get it to do anything when attempting to use it on a 3 day growth - thick and abundant facial hair. I'd previously used the Philips PQ206, which really didn't have a good feel in the hand and it didn't give a proper shave. I always felt that it would be just a temporary shaver (bought while traveling). One of the rotary blades eventually failed and I'm actually glad it forced me into buying a new shaver. The blade cover doesn't fit securely and will almost always pop off with the slightest bump (I eventually gave up using it). When searching for a new shaver, I mulled over the 3 contenders (Philips as previously owned, this Panasonic that's been reviewed above, and the Braun M90). Took me a couple of weeks of decision making but am pretty glad that I made the choice of the Panasonic. Needless to say the Philips was eliminated as a contender right from the start but it was one of the 3 most similar shavers. I've used Braun shavers in the past and would have purchased the M90 for the protective "flip cover" but decided to give the Panasonic a go based on reviews here ... I have no regrets on my decision though I am sure the Braun would have done just as well.

Der Rasierer ist handlich und trotzdem kann man sich gut damit rasieren. Das Preisleistungsverhältnis stimmt. Sehr praktisch auf Reisen bzw. im Campingurlaub.

I was recommended this travel razor by a friend who had previously spent a lot of money on some very expensive electric shavers. His excellent advice which has been bourne out by my experience of the last three weeks, is that this cheap travel razor is as efficient as some of his expensive models. After years of wet shaving, the first couple of uses I was a little sore but my skin quickly settled down and I found I could shave with this easily and quickly, without irritation. It did miss a couple of hairs on my neck in particular but once I had learned the technique of holding my skin taught, that was no longer a problem. The shaver uses two AA batteries and I have noticed no slow down after three weeks of daily use. You can use this wet or dry. I have tried both but prefer the convenience of using it dry. It is easy to disassemble to clean using the supplied brush and cold water. I also use canned air to clean between the blades. You can also use a drop of hand wash to use the vibrations of the head to get a nice lather and rinse the head. The only negative I have found with it, is that the clear plastic guard for the foil can easily pop off leaving the fragile foil exposed. Take care with it, find a pouch or even use an elastic band to retain it and you should be fine.
