After 1 month of using this shaver, I'm convinced it is the best I've ever used. I've been using a Norelco 8865 XL for several years now, and I was pretty happy with it. But if I had to shave 2 days in a row, it was a very uncomfortable experience, with a lot of irritation on my neck. And I also have always used a foil type shaver, currently a Remingtom Titanium and earlier a cheaper Braun, because I couldn't use the 8865 to square off my sideburns with a nice straight line, or get a couple spots under my nose and lower lip. So if I traveled, I either had to take 2 shavers along or try to make due with the Norelco. The Remington gave a decent shave, but it would actually draw tiny dots of blood around the edges of my mouth, which is a bit too close for comfort. Also, I'd use it very sparingly on my neck, as it wasn't as comfortable as the floating triple heads on the Norelco.
Now everything has CHANGED! I've found one shaver that does it all in the Panasonic 8109. I think it's amazing. I'm not sure why, but this shaver does not irritate my neck area at all. I don't mean less irritation than the other 2, I mean NONE! I really can't feel a difference on my neck where I did and didn't use the razor. And the shave I get is nice and close. I've never used a blade in my life, so I have no idea how it compares, but it shaves me as close as any shaver I've ever used. This is a shaver and not a magic wand, so it does require several passes to get a clean shave. But I believe anybody who complains that it doesn't shave clean with 1 pass has just never used electric before. I'd love to hear about the electric shaver that can shave clean in one pass, I don't believe it's possible. And I also feel that the poor craftsman blames his tools, and this tool will allow a very good shave when used correctly.
As for the self cleaning stand, I'm less enthusiastic. It does work as advertised and is a nice addition, but if price was my biggest concern I would get the lower model Panasonic without the HydraClean. I got mine for $108, minus a $30 instant rebate so it only cost $78. The next model down was $79 with no rebate, so taking the HydraClean version was a no brainer. And it is a cool little toy that does work well, it just isn't a necessity like with the Braun 360. You can put some soft soap into the heads & let them clean themselves because water can't hurt this shaver, unlike the Braun.
In conclusion, I'd say the number 1 reason I like this shaver so much, is because after 30 years of hating shaving and the irritation I knew I was going to feel, I actually don't mind shaving any more. Shirt collars don't cause discomfort because the skin feels fine. And shaving 2 days in a row is no longer a dreaded experience, it is actually okay. I would give this shaver 5 stars, but the battery life is a little shorter than my Norelco and I'm saving that 5 stars for a magic wand that I can just wave over my beard and it disappears.Get more detail about Panasonic ES8109S Vortex Wet/Dry Shaver with Nano Technology and HydraClean System.
