My Panasonic shaver I love! No comparison to the stupid BRAUN devices that have always geziept me when the battery was running low, leaving many stubble left. Panasonic has not given thanks linear motor for many years. From time to time but you need a new shaving foil and knives so that the shaving is smooth again perfect. That annoys me immensely that costs as much as I paid for the whole apparatus in USA!
