Panasonic 5-Blade Wet/Dry

Bought it 6-7 years ago, used almost every day, replaced the blades just once. It still looks and works like new, the battery is in perfect condition as well.
The cleaning base was dead long ago, but I preferred to clean it manually anyway.
The spare blades are expensive, but not needed to replace often.

I've been disappointed with the Euro brand Shavers I've bought over the last decade+ and reading good reviews of Panasonic Shavers, thought I'd give it a go.I'd had in my mind that Panasonic was an old 80's brand. Well I was wrong. Way better, is the best way I can describe it. Much closer shave, much faster at getting the job done, quieter, and a lot easier to clean when you pop the top off.
Replacement blades seem expensive so I hope they last well. I've not owned it long enough to comment. Got it for $250 on sale at Shaver Shop.

After using a top quality razor for near 35years I thought I should try electric. Now a big part of this reason was that I have very sensitive skin and break out occasionally in a rash. Tried the Panasonic ES-LV65s on a recommendation from a good salesperson at the Shaver shop. I can’t rave enough about this unit. I’m very impressed with the closeness of shave this razor gives. It feels very gentle and is easy to use. Now this is only my experience on my face. This may differ on others but I’ll never go back to a blasé razor now.

To say i was surprised is an understatement ...I was astounded.
It's been a while since I used an electric /battery shaver and the last one I used was a Remington some 25 odd years ago which turned me off electric shavers for what I thought would be forever.
I was constantly looking for a better shave and found a 3 blades cart was better than 5 .

The 5 blade would drag on my face and was a very unpleasant experience when shaving so I settled on a conventional 3 blade.

I was letting my hair grow for sometimes up to a week , and really had to ...

I thought by paying over $200 I would get a shaver that would shave my face in quicker time and also with a closer shave than my older one.
Perhaps it was because its a foil type that I hadn't used before by no matter how many times I go over my upper lip and on my chin, I still seem to find it hard to get a close shave.
Its battery life is good and its easy to clean but I buy a razor for a good shave and feel I havent go it with this razor.
A bit disappointed.

Have found this shave to be much quicker and quieter than my Braun series 7 and the cleaning part of the charger/cleaner dock uses a water based compound much nicer than the Braun spirit based cartridges .Reduced my shaving time by half as well as a closer shave .Very happy

I bought a Panasonic shaver model ESLV 65 five weeks ago, from Shaver Shop at Castle Hill in Sydney, the shaver is good, shaving is close, but mechanically its very bad, after a few weeks the trimmer on the shaver stop working and start making noise and the sound of the motor was struggling and humming , I took it back to where I bought it from, since it’s still under warranty, the owner of the shop she was very clumsy, she stayed more than 20mintus repeatedly switching the shaver on and off, and during that the trimmer did not work, and she sa...

This is by far the worst electric shaver I have ever bought. Leaves lots of individual hair unshaven on my chin especially stubborn white hair. Even going over the same place several times in different directions does not work. I have to end up pulling them out with tweezers. It's also incredibly difficult to wash out properly as the shaving foils cartridges have incredibly small gaps where hairs get stuck and are impossible to remove. Please DO NOT buy this overpriced, overhyped piece of garbage

Absolute bargain if you can get it on sale for $250. I’ve been using various Philips shavers for the past 30 odd years, the last one I was never really happy with, I was all set to get a Series 9 Braun when I came across reviews for the Panasonic. To be honest, Panasonic isn’t really a brand that I’d associate with men’s shavers, but boy, I’m glad I got it. Best shave I’ve ever had. Time will tell how well it holds up, but so far very happy.

After 2 different manufacturers an a 3 blade Panasonic clean shave but 40 mins of rubbing even with gel have found the 5blade clean as shave in 20mins thanx shaver shop excellent service Cheers Ross

I have been using these for 2 years now . So used to this that i cant go back to razor . Closest shave ever. No lines , best shave everytime . Charge last for days if not weeks . Parts easily available at shaver shop. Nill issues whats so ever. Works great with shaving gel/foam

Used a Philips for past 42 years, over 6 shavers, but their subborn policy of replacing original robust heads with cheap flimsy head and blades on very expensive shavers and their dismissive response was last straw. New Panasonic is great, excellent quality, great shaving results, the closest and best ever. No cheap head and blades this time.

My girlfriend bought this shaver for my birthday does a great job in very short time easy to use easy to clean Just an all-round superstar of shavers excellent value for money

Ok i purchased this shaver from shavershop because they had a money back guarantee. I was wrapped with it initially and now 5 months down the track the blades are blunt and its terrible. I didnt realise the blades would only last a short time or I wouldnt have purchased it. Happy to replace blades every year at $99 but not twice a year!
