Doesn’t cut very well. Never did. I Hoover same area couple of times. Try another area and comeback to first. I give up use s Gillette. I pick it up every once in a while expecting it will work. Definition of insanity.

We appreciate your feedback! Achieving a closer shave with an electric shaver can sometimes be different from a manual razor. Here are a few tips to help you get a closer shave. Make sure your skin is clean and dry before shaving. You can also try shaving after a warm shower to soften the hair follicles. For a closer shave, try shaving against the direction of hair growth. Be gentle and avoid pressing too hard to prevent irritation. While shaving, use your free hand to stretch the skin in the area you're shaving. This can help the shaver get closer to the hair. Remember, electric shavers may take some time to get used to, but with the right technique, you can achieve a closer shave. If you have any more questions or need further assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out. We appreciate your feedback!
Just ok ….i bought this as a replacement for my husbands old Panasonic electric razor. Doesn’t give a close shave, at all. Very disappointing bc the other one was amazing, just not sharp anymore .

We are sorry to hear that your experience did not match your expectations. Your feedback helps us do better! Please note that contrary to manual razors that necessitate a certain amount of pressure, electric shavers are designed to operate with minimal force. Exerting too much pressure can lead to blades pressing harshly against the skin, which in turn could result in irritation. Guide the shaver's movement gently without pressing down forcefully. In addition, 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.
Very close shave at least when new. Better then my Braun even with new blades.

We are thrilled to have you as part of the Panasonic family! Thank you for sharing your kind words with us. We look forward to hearing from you again soon!
This is our 4th ARC5 in the household. We’ve tried the Braun version, but found Panasonic offers the closest to the skin shave possible for an electric razor. 10/10 would recommend if you’re looking to make the switch to electric.

Amazing difference! Upgraded from an ARC4 that I’d had for several years. I shave my face and head. Much closer shave. Nimble handling. It’s a huge step up in performance.
