What customers say about "Key Specs"

Panasonic ES-LV61-A Arc5 Men’s Electric Razor

Can be used wet or dry. With creams or gels, perfect for a shave in the shower as it's 100% waterproof.
Very good trimmer albeit hard to see due to the size of the head - but all electrics seem to have this issue to some degree.
Micro thin foil is pretty amazing - but delicate and easy to tear.
Patented 5 blade cutting system - really does an amazing job.
Pretty decent razor, but after only a couple months of use, plug receptacle is corroding despite it being a wet/dry razor.

Braun Series 7 790cc Men's Electric Foil Shaver

Good starter shaver for teens with thicker skin.
Good for light and medium-light skin, does an adequate job with sensitive skin, pivoting head, excellent build-quality.
The base keeps my cleaning fluid from evaporating which is an improvement. My old one would dry out so fast to where I would take it out and cover it every time I finished using it.
Changing the cutting heads from time to time helped, but there was a limit to the closeness of the shave I could get.
I enjoy the razor it's self but not the cleaning unit. It became clogged causing the fluid to not circulate properly and I've been unable to unclog it.

What customers say about "Size & Weight"

Panasonic ES-LV61-A Arc5 Men’s Electric Razor

The shaver is light, is very comfortable to hold and the head size actually feels good against my head, face and neck.
The Panasonic is light weight, gives a much closer shave than the Braun 799 and a much much more friendly experience than the Norelco 9300.
Perfectly balanced and surprisingly light and quiet - it's form meets function.
Very silent and light. It does the job really good and fast.
This adds to weight and bulk when I travel, which I don’t like.

Braun Series 7 790cc Men's Electric Foil Shaver

The newer model seems a little more compact and seems put together better than my old model and has more features.
Semi-hard case is compact, protects the cutting head and is easy to pack for travel.
Good solid feel in the hand, compact. Recommeded.
Purchased for my husband. When asked how he liked he said "it was outstanding". Shaver is self cleaning, long lasting battery and compact for traveling.
Awesome product. Powerful, compact and gets the job done.

What customers say about "Control"

Panasonic ES-LV61-A Arc5 Men’s Electric Razor

Control wise the shaver is very simple. It only has one button, the power button.
I get about 2,weeks of shaves from this before it needs a charge.
The charge lasts me seven to eight days. I have found the overall shaving experience with this razor is very comfortable.
Excellent product. The lithium ion battery last for me approximately about 2 weeks with the razor being used every other day.
I like the fact that the indicator states the % power left, so you don't have to guess when to plug it in until its too late.

Braun Series 7 790cc Men's Electric Foil Shaver

On a full charge, you can shave daily and not worry about running out of power for weeks.
The cleaning & charging station is nice to have and does keep the razor reasonably clean.
The battery lasts me several days on a trip without additional charging.
The self cleaning function works pretty well and the device seemed to hold a charge pretty well.
The cleaning system/charger stand that comes with it works as it should.

What customers say about "Features"

Panasonic ES-LV61-A Arc5 Men’s Electric Razor

Linear motor drive - surpasses rotary and pulse driven razors by miles. It's rapid fire fast and incredibly effective.
Fit and finish is excellent, good ergonomics and modern aesthetics.
Well-balanced, solid feel - good ergonomics.
The ergonomics of this shaver are also good. Compared to several other electric razors I have used, the Panasonic feels good in my hand.
A flexible head that glides smoothly over face, chin and jaw.

Braun Series 7 790cc Men's Electric Foil Shaver

The cleaning system/charger stand that comes with it works as it should.
In the box is a nice travel case/cover for the razor and a small brush for times a light cleaning is all that is needed.
The Braun is familiar and I like it. It shaves well and it feels well balanced in my hand.
They have done an incredible job on designing the station, the formulation of the cleaning fluid & the design of the cleaning cartridge to capture hairs.
Do not buy the overpriced shaver that does not get the job done and is poorly designed.
