This is the 3rd panasonic razor similar to this one I have owned. I have replaced them only due to the battery eventually wearing out after several years. from Amazon.com Does more than I expected, clean close shave with almost no irritation. I used a Gillette Fusion Power for the past year but always had random cuts and copious razor irritation. This shaver, when combined with a pre-electric, plows through hairs and leaves nothing on my face, great purchase! from Amazon.com This was the first electric shaver I bought and was pretty excited to get to use it. Once I got it I couldn't wait to try it out because the reviews I found about it were great. from Amazon.com Panasonic makes great "sonic" shavers. I have been using them for 10 years. from Amazon.com The replacement cost for new cutters was almost as much as a new shaver of the same model. I thought I would give a screen type a try. No regrets the Panasonic Arc IV Nano is a great improvement. The lithium battery goes from 10% to full charge in about an hour. from Amazon.com I have been using Panasonic razors for several years and I find this one to be the best yet. I am getting the closest and smoothest shave ever and without any sign of razor burn. from Amazon.com I have to say, I'm a sceptic, so when I saw all the rave reviews of this shaver on here, I thought, "Oh, it couldn't be that good." Well, it is! I've owned Braun electric shavers previously, which I thought were the Audis or Mercedes of the electric shaver world. The Panasonic ES 8243A Arc IV (long and dumb name, by the way!) is just amazing. from Amazon.com This shaver is excellent. I've only used it a few times but its the smoothest shave I ever got. Much better and more comfortable on the skin than my previous Panasonic, which was just OK. Price is great, value is excellent. from Amazon.com I've had about 10 different electric razors over the years. Some good, some terrible, some Ok. from Amazon.com Quicker than my Norelco. I shave only about twice a week so I'll see how fast the hairs grow back using this foil compared to my rotary. As a side note, I've noticed throughout my life using an electric razor my hair grew back at a MUCH slower pace than if I used my blade. Not sure if all people are like this, but that's why I'm able to shave only twice a week. from Amazon.com
