Why I can recommend this shaver is good for the price to very good shaving quality, if, like me a good wet shave with a Gillette Fusion ProGlide is used and gives from time to time once the temptation and tried the Electric shave you will of one or other times disappointed. I have tested several models of Phillips and Brown, however, was never really happy with the result (which Phillips result when shaving in the worst section) I plucked up courage and tried again a Panasonic shaver.
After unpacking, I noticed the very good and pleasant grip shape, the shaver is not really loud and I tried the same once a dry shave. I must say that I have a lot of range in the neck beard just the flat against the neck what the biggest difficulty was for the razor I have tested before. After the first shave the result was passable, but not protrude well, so I tested the same once the cleaning station and was very pleasantly surprised (I had a 3 day beard).
So I let my beard grow back 3 days and had to find my girlfriend rather the hair the nachwuchsen much gentler and not were so scratchy like a Gillette razor, also saw the beard after three days much kept out. After the second shave I noticed first that the result for me from the smoothness of the result with my old Fusion razor get there with the advantage that the shaving is being participants, no pinching, tearing or razor bumps or inflammations occur. So I take it to a sound result in an electric razor should get you have shaved at least twice.
For this price, I can wholeheartedly recommend the razor there in this price class probably not a razor to shave this rankommt.
Cleaning Station:
The cleaning station has different modes can undergo
Clean + Dry
Clean + Dry + Load

Load
Dry
What I have found to be extremely practical, since the cleaning stations that I knew (Brown) did not have this choice and have always charged the razor (which does the battery is not good.
To clean it only needs water and the purification cartridge (1STK costs ~ 6), I recommend to use aufjedenfall distilled water if the water is very hard (hard) is.
The water is changed when the cartridge is used up!
Unfortunately I can not say yet how long the cartridge holds when I changed the first cartridge I will again write an update.
