Panasonic ES8103S

Cost a fraction of the Braun that it replaced, lower maintenance cost and a closer shave. What else to like!

After reading numerous reviews I bought from Newegg on sale. I really can't add anything to the reviews as I agree with all the pro comments

Great little razor

Compared to Remington--my old standby microscreen causes more irritation and doesn't shave as close. However, I tried a Remington titanium, and it shaves even closer--the smoothest shave I have ever had from an electric razor. I didn't like it in the...

Shaves well, strong motor, easy to clean, waterproof, little irritation

not the best shave out there

Excellent

put a drip of oil on the top of the inside blade heads every month. I never have put the head or blades under water yet, that just seems counter intuitive to me to wash them in water! imho

This is the best razor I have ever owned, and I have a few years under my belt and quite a few different razors ; I love everything about this one and have used it for 3 years now ; I like this particular version so well I have now bought 4 in total,...

Fantastic!

I bought this shaver after reading tons of reviews, and I'm very happy with my purchase. I do my head as well as face and I couldn't be happier with the results and overall cost savings since switching from Mach3 razors. Also, I purchased this for the...

Very nice shave... right out of the box, even for a lifetime razor user ; Feels sturdy in your hand ; Charges very fast ; Easy to clean, Don't waste your $ on the models that use the cleaning station ; Supposedly long foil/blade life (time will tell on...

The charge doesn't last as long as I thought it would ; Doesn't have a charging cradle. My friend has an almost identical model from a few years ago that came with one, Panasonic has been cost cutting as of late ; Some of those tough neck hairs takes a...

All Good

Shaver seems to cut quite well. Like others have said, its not as close as a blade but a lot more convenient in my opinion. Many have said give it a couple weeks for your beard to adjust but I think it works quite well right away

Doesn't come with a charging cradle -1 egg

I like it...

Replaced an old Braun that worked fine but always had a hard time with a few stubborn whiskers. The Panasonic is a definite improvement. I use it with a gel shaving cream. The stubborn whisker areas are still stubborn but this shaver does a much better...

Best Shave

Great shave, my last shaver (Remington R835) was the best I owned, until now. Reviews are correct, very very close shave. I charged it to 100% the first day, shaved once a day, the next charge was 9 days later at 30%. Even at 30% it has the same power...

Close shave, powerful even at 10% battery level, soft/moving head

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Very good - give it two weeks.

Somehow, your skin or hair or whatever becomes conditioned by using this shaver. On day one, I didn't get a good shave at all. As the days went by, the shave started getting smoother and closer. I'm now getting better shaves than I ever got with blades...

Good price for a high-quality shaver. Cordless. Wet/dry. Gives a very nice, close shave AFTER ABOUT TWO WEEKS OF USE

Shave starts out unimpressive on day 1 but becomes smooth-as-a-baby's-bottom by about day 14

Best Electric Razor I've Bought

Closest shave I have ever got with an electric razor. Honestly at first you may not like it as I wasn't sure at first. You really have to get used to it. Just give it a chance. My whole life I was a blade guy, every razor I bought sucked. This one by...

Only con is it takes your skin awhile to get used to which can discourage many users. But I've read up on so many reviews for this razor and others and everyone pretty much says the same thing. Once you get used to it, you'll never shave with anything...
