Hi there! Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear the shaver did not deliver the close and efficient performance you expected. We understand how disappointing it is when grooming takes longer than it should and still does not provide the desired result. Your comments are important and help reflect the experience from everyday use.

Quiet, shaves quickly, easy to clean……..future replacement of cutter head is too expensive

Subpar considering price.

I have another Panasonic, a travel shaver that I love and works better than this item, somehow. I know Panasonic makes great products but this one doesn't feel up to your standard. Tends to leave a lot of hair on certain areas of my face, despite repeated attempts in those areas, as well as pulling skin taught, and trying to work from different angles.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Much Better Than a Razor

This shaver is great for daily shaving. I was hesitant when reviews online said it could be irritating in comparison to brauns top line but I have had ZERO IRRITATION. It’s actually been so insane and for the price would recommend 10000000x over Braun!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Needs to be cleaned every time I shave. If I knew that I would have still used a razor.
Response from PanasonicBy Team Panasonic - FTeam PanasonicJuly 30, 2026
Hello there! Thank you for your honest feedback. We’re glad you gave the shaver a try, and we understand that frequent cleaning may feel less convenient than expected. Your comments are appreciated and helpful, and we’re grateful you took the time to share your experience.

A great wet/dry razor!

A great wet/dry razor! I have been a shower shaver forever and I am always looking for the best option. This one really seems to do a great job. I have had Panasonic Shavers before so I knew it would be a high quality machine - but the ARC5 is a step above. Only been using for a few weeks - but so far I have nothing but good things to say about the comfort, the close shave, and the solid feel!
I would recommend this to a friend!

It’s wonderful to know it stands out even among other Panasonic shavers you’ve used, and we truly appreciate your thoughtful feedback.

Shaving became easier!

Loving the new Panasonic shaver! Only one thing I'm not liking is having to remove blades to clean. I have neuropathy in my hands and can't really feel my fingers. Sometimes it is difficult to remove them. Other than that, I AM LOVING MY NEW ARC!
I would recommend this to a friend!
