Panasonic ES8243A Arc IV Nano Shaver

admin — Sun, 05 Sep 2010 15:39:26 +0000

For years I’ve searched for the perfect electric shaver. I have a tough beard and very sensitive skin, so a straight razor is out of the question. To get a smooth shave from any top brand electric shaver takes 20 minutes, and the abrasions are a killer, not to mention the red face for most of the day. So I once again entered the new razor arena, recently trying the top brand shavers including the newest Braun Pulsonic 9585 and the latest Norelco Arcitec, and was left unsatisfied with 20 minute painful and irritating shaves, until using the Panasonic Arc 4 ES8243A.

I’ve never been inspired to comment on any product of any kind like this, but I would like to spare others the hours of surfing online for the perfect shaver. The Panasonic Arc 4 actually delivers as claimed. I can shave comfortably and even more smoothly in literally half the time compared to my previous 20 minute ordeals. I’m also experiencing an unexpected bonus: even after only a few days, each shave has taken less time than the day before. My last shave this morning was only 8 minutes. My skin is consistently left smooth and comfortable. So far, I’ve only used this shaver dry. When I’m not rushed in the morning I may try it wet to see if I can lessen my shaving time even more.

Braun Flex XP II 5790

This shaver is value, options and quality. It’s simple and practical to use and the cleaner is cool. I did the homework comparing shavers, it’s worth it. First of all, I did some trial and error, then a lot of research before I brought my Braun 5790 and it is the clear winner because of value, value, value. I work hard and like value for my money. One of the reasons I went with electrics in the first place was to save money over buying replacement heads and cream etc.

Braun Series 7-790cc – Pulsonic 9595

admin — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 05:29:58 +0000

The bottom line for me is the shaver works better than the 7526, but the cleaning system is very annoying. Braun is banking on customers using the cleaning system and purchasing refills, and has created the product in a way that it becomes somewhat of a hassle to clean manually. You can still clean manually, but from my experience it won’t be as clean as it would have been had the cutterblock and foil not been attached (which would allow for brush cleaning). And yes, I followed all the directions and ran the water the way the instructions said, with the shaver on, but the low hygiene sign keeps blinking. I am seriously considering returning the shaver because I don’t need the cleaning system and because of the way Braun has created the product to dissuade people from manual cleaning. It’s not even likely Braun will release a 9595 without the cleaning system, because the inherent problem in my opinion is the foil and cutterblock being attached, thus preventing brush cleaning of each segment of the cutterblock.
