Requires Few Strokes
Very close shave
Cons
Best Uses
Dry Use
Comment:
I've mostly owned Norelco for my adult life. The batteries finally gave way in my last one so I turned to CR. The Panasonic price was higher than I wanted to spend but that is probably due to it's wet/dry mode which I will not use wet. I have a moderate/heavy beard and it sliced through a three day growth with no piching, pulling, or skin irritation. Only down side is it does not capture the cut whiskers very well. You better be over a sink.
How long have you owned it:
Three-to-six months
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

Comment:
I have been using electric shavers for over 60<br />years, starting with the Schick, to several Norelcos,<br />a few Brauns, including the 790. None compare<br />with the Pamasonic in closeness, speed, and<br />ease of use. I recommend it highly.

Comment:
Every electric razor I have ever used pinched my skin and left my neck and chin red and irritated. <br /><br />I needed a quick way to shave in the morning because I like to get the most of my down time, last minute... I followed CR and other on line recommendations and purchased the Panasonic Arc4 Multi-Flex ES-LA63-s and keep it in my desk at the office. I get to the office, duck into the men's room and a clean, comfortable shave is never more than 4 minutes away. Now no electric razor will ever be as close as a blade but the LA63 is a close second and much faster.
How long have you owned it:
A month or less
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
