Amazon reviews all warn that the warranty on this is bogus and if something fails it won't be covered by Panasonic due to it being an "obsolete model". So good luck with that.
Awesome deal.

Also, the bundle with charging/cleaning station is $150, and very much worth it IMO. Been using this for 4 years. Shave during my commute and just leave it in the car, been exposed to prolonged sunlight, travelled the world with me, bumped around in whatever crevice of my car that I could shove it in. The silver paint is pretty chipped and now it looks black. But still works like new and holds more than a week worth of charge.

This replaced a Norelco 9 series. The rotary shaver was easier on the skin but the Arc5 is just more straight forward to use, and felt more efficient. YMMV
I don't know whether that specific claim is accurate or not, but what I do know is Panasonic is one of the worst large corporations for warranty support. Warranty support is handled by a third party warranty fulfillment company out of McAllen, TX... and it seems their main goal is to deny warranty claims. That said, Panasonic typically builds high quality products, but if something DOES go wrong, expect the warranty center to do whatever they can do to avoid warranty service... (ie, claim you did not buy from auth seller, ask for original receipt, require you to pay all shipping costs, claim failure was due to abuse and not defect, etc, etc).

Definitely this one - I had used Braun shavers before switching to Panasonic and am not going back. I already have this one and the previous version and am debating whether to get an extra one just in case something happened to the it.

I have an LV67 which costs more. Any difference with this one? I don't understand why they have both versions as they are both ARC5.

I have owned Braun and Norelco, but I like the Panasonic more.

I just got this on prime day, used the discover $10 off cashback thing and the other $10 amazon gift card bonus, $80 plus tax. I'm coming from an older model Panasonic. This thing is great, if I didn't know any better I'd think I shaved with a straight blade. Easily some of the best money I've ever spent.

I too highly recommend, the charging/cleaning station is kind of a must have though.

You have to have the cleaning station mainly for just the drying after cleaning with soap and water.

This thing is WAY better than norelco. It's meant for soft Asian skin.

Actually, there is a comparison at the bottom. My shave head and sensor are different. Batteries are not mentioned.

LV65 Active Shave Sensor
LV67 Intelligent Shave Sensor
LV65 Multi-flex Pivoting Head
LV67 Flexible 16-D Shaving Head

Do you guys do wet or dry shaves? After only ever doing dry, I tried out wet shaving a few weeks ago and wound up with horrible razor burn. It was a more comfortable shave, and definitely felt closer. Is that something that'll eventually go away, or just bad luck with the genetics?

Did you do it right? I use to hate wet shaving because I thought wet shaving was just "put water on skin and use shaver" and that would make my skin all grippy and annoying while shaving.

I bought this arc5 to replace my arc 3 and I didn't know what to do wtih the arc 3 so I decided to abuse it in the shower and shave my pubic area. Then I had an epiphany, why only use water when I can lather soap and make the skin area SUPER SLIPPERY instead lol.

So that's what I did, seems to work just as well as dry shaving. Not sure if it's better than dry shaving but.. Seems to do the trick.
