Pros & Cons
Pros
This cheap panasonic is the best i’ve had. It recharges quickly and the battery lasts for well over a week.
Cons
The razor is light in weight, feels very plastic. Does not give a very close shave, takes off the majority of stubble but not as close as i am used too. The trimmer is difficult to use and rather feeble. Cutters seem blunt.
Shaver barely squeezes into household socket. No warning light to tell you when shaver is charged, or when it is running out of charge. Shame on you panasonic. Don't waste your time with panasonic.
Highlights
Quality

Price
This inexpensive panasonic has been a revelation.
Great value,really wanted the dearer version,but this works so well i am happy enough.
70% of the cost of the shaver itself ( which obviously includes a new shaver head) yet another example of a business using resi... Read More
I had to buy a suitable travel case on ebay for around £7.
Packaging/appearance
Only moan was they sent the box unpacked so it had no wrapping on it with just a label on so my son saw it.
Competitiveness
Gives a good close shave, and value for money over rival shavers.
At literally 1/3 of the cost, you get a shaver that does it all and is better than series 5.
(rip)so nervous about buying a new one( as i thought nothing would compare to my remington) i went for the panasonic.
The braun is many times more expensive than the remington and i do mean many time more expensive so it may take a minute longer... Read More
