Customer Rating: Summary: Great Product Comment: I am a U.S. Marine and as such we spend a great deal of time training in the field and still must maintain a good clean shave every morning. Razors are great and certainly something I prefer above any electric razor battery and/or rechargeable alike. The drawback to razor blades is out in the field we don't always have the opportunity to shave using the comforts of running water from home and more importantly were usually short on time. Far too often we end up doing what is known as dry shaving and this can be rough even to the likes of Marines. Depending on how long we spend in the field we can get some serious razor bumps that get extremely uncomfortable with the mixture of sweat, heat and lack of running water.
This razor I would love to say solves all of that but let's be real it doesn't; on the other hand I am confident it is the next best thing. It is very durable which of course in my line of work as a Marine this is always good. It cleans up extremely well so when I come out of the field I can quickly clean it up with little to no mess. Above all I can get it wet which results is NO MORE DRY SHAVING. The shaving cream application can be a bit messy in the field but splashing some water on the face and using my canteen to pour on the shaver and I was in business.
I bought this product simply to take out in the field and the job it does is beyond my expectations. For those who are fellow infantrymen Army or Marine both trust me guys give this a try. A little more expensive than the 15 dollar Braun most of us have seen in the field but well worth the extra dollars spent. For an extended stay in the field (ie tour in Iraq) bring along some extra RECHARGEABLE batteries with a mini energizer recharger and charge them both up when you get an opportunity. Those that come with DO NOT recharge, purchase the rechargeable ones after these go bad and a mini adjustable energizer recharger works great, its small light and travels well.
Excuse me for being blunt but I have read some of the other reviews, this is a touch up razor designed for a quick shave for a short morning, a business trip or a 5pm meeting. Gentlemen, if you are using this as an everyday shaver and expect results of an electric razor I am sorry but you're an idiot. This is not a miracle worker, it does not have a built in alarm that wakes you up and starts the shaving process for you. It is an OUTSTANDING "TOUCH UP" shaver, leave a review for what it is.
If you were looking for a fast touch up to throw in the glove compartment or take on the road, this is a perfect item. If your an infantrymen and are trying to replace that double A battery opertated throw away shaver from Braun this is what you want.

Customer Rating: Summary: Panasonic Travel Shaver Comment: This is an excellent travel shaver that functions almost well enough to be used every day (except that batteries can be expensive). I have found that a pair of Duracell 123 batteries last about 2 years (probably 35 shaves). An additional benefit is that the head and blades are interchangeable with my home shaver. Outstanding product if you like electric shavers. Customer Rating: Summary: The Panasonic Shaver is awesome! Comment: Very nice shaver! Highly recommend! Portable, compact, easy to use. The best part is that you can clean it in a snap by just running water and adding a liquid soap. It cleans itself.
My son gave me the first one a while ago. I bought a second for my toiletries kit and a third as a gift. Customer Rating: Summary: i think it can be last forever Comment: I had this shaver for about 5 years and i never have any problem with it. When i got it from amazon it was $50 with shipping,and i didnt know it's not a rechargetable shaver until i receive it. I was little upset at the time coz i think it's gona waste my time and money for buying those expensive battery (CR123) two for $8 dollars in super market.However after i use it i feel i only change the battery once a year,which the battery last very long i cant even believe it.Normally I use it for about 30 sec to clean up my face,and i dont think i ever replace the battery within 6 months.It's small easy carry with travel,water proof,easy clean,never broke.I personlally recommended to anyone and it worth the price. Customer Rating: Summary: Good Shaver Comment: This is a good shaver. Coming out of a rechargeable lower end Braun, I was pleasantly surprised at the comfort of the Panasonic. I do wish that it was more clearly stated that this is NOT a rechargeable though. Especially as it takes Lithium batteries that are a bit pricey. Now I REALLY limit the usage to every once in a while.
