Product Reviews of Panasonic ES8043SC Pro-Curve Pivot Action Linear Wet/Dry Shaver, SilverProduct Review: "The Sports Car Of Electric Shavers" Summary: 5 Stars
Obviously a strange comparison that teases the mind for further explanation. May I suggest a test drive that will encompass all aspects of a thorough trial. First,the equipment: exceptionally well engineered for the intended purpose. Sleek design that beckons a ,try me, hands-on approach. Well placed highly responsive controls that cover all requirements. An all seasons wet or dry duty kind of animal with respected heritage. Floating heads with firm or soft ride really make the difference where the linear activated blades meet the whiskers. Of course the real issue is the resultant tribute to a supremely close and comfortable shave. My last experience with electric shavers ended my lust for one during the 1950's. Baskets of used blades and mountains of lather have been my constant companions until recently at which point I dared to explore mans' progression as a species. Can you believe? Technology, innovation, divine inspiration, dare to achieve. There is hope yet for our survival as I base my conclusion solely on the benefits of being able to finally enjoy without hassel or fear "The Joy Of Shaving". The system that works best for me is to soften my whiskers with warm water and soap, rinse, then apply a 50/50 mix of shaving gel and penetrating lotion. I call this my 98% shave (as compared to a blade shave). Without hesitation I can say this has been my favorite, if not best, purchase from Amazon. Perhaps this has been a simple evaluation but none the less one that has passed all tests with ease.
Product Review: 5 minute shave Summary: 3 Stars
It take me five solid minutes to shave with this thing because the main blades do such a poor job on the neck area that I have to use the trimmer on this "tough" spot. I'd probably quit using this and go back to a regular razor, but I get awful razor burn on my neck from using a straight razor that I don't get nearly as bad with this item. I've been using this thing for eight months.
Product Review: A close shave Summary: 4 Stars
Very good from the first shave, a bit better than my old Braun but much cheaper and better battery.
Product Review: A comfortable way to shave Summary: 4 Stars
I have curly whiskers and sensitive skin. I'm still getting used to this razor after 3 weeks. It does a pretty good job of picking up longer curly whiskers and gives a close enough shave for me with great comfort shaving through fresh soap and water. I do find that I can get razor burn on my chin and I'm still working on that problem. My first wet shave electric razor and I like that - a comfortable shave and easy to clean the razor.
Product Review: A cross between your standard gillet razor and Christine the killer car Summary: 1 Stars
Please note that any electric razor requires at least 10 days use in order to properly condition the skin so that you can have a good shave with it.
I have used the Panasonic ES8043 for about 20 days now and it still tears my face to shreds every time I use it.
Stay clear of this device unless you have stubble like a porcupine, it's like French kissing jaws. The worst part is that no matter how bad you let it tear at you, you still have stubble left that no amount of choppi.. shaving will remove.
Seriously, this must be one of those devices left over from the Spanish inquisition.
