how does this one compare to the Panasonic ES-RT51-S 3 Blade Electric Razor? i want a electric razor to use while i shower to reduce irritation.

I have not used my razor in the shower, but I can tell you that of all the electric razors I have used in the past this razor is virtually irritation free, and I am picky about that. Beyond that, it is the nearest thing to a blade razor shave that I have ever experienced. For the money, I don't think it can be beat.

I don't immerse the razor but it's heads and cutters are easily cleaned under the faucet. It is not a wet shave razor. I think it's the best razor Remington has made. I'm on my the third MS2-390 and the only problem I have experienced is the battery life is only 3-4 years.

From what I understand, the 2 most expensive skull-shavers are a little more durable and can be used in the shower. I use the basic model and it works fine for me.

I shave in the shower and it works like a dream. Much cheaper than cartridges. Just take your time and buy Astra or Dorco blades.

I have been using an electric razor for 30 years until recently. There is no doubt that the fusion performs better. In my opinion it is faster because I do it in the shower extremely quickly. Also, It gets the curly hairs that lay flat on my neck that were impossible to get with electric. I look way better and shaving this way just makes me feel better. It puts pep in my step. Also, face lotions and after shaves feel so much better after using a regular razor. Also, If I want I can go 2 days between shaves and I still think it's closer than electric after 1 day.

It gives a close shave but not better than the multiple blade razors. It takes 2-3 minutes longer perhaps because it takes time to feel comfortable using the single edge. I am satisfied with the shave and especially with the cost savings.

Had mine just over three months. I use it with hot water and hand soap. The blades are definitely less efficient than they were, although still better than my last razor.Out of the posters on this thread, three indicate a life of 3-4 months... Interesting. Guess I'll try the "Tom's brushless cream".J. Thayer, how old are you and how hard is your beard?

Electric shavers seem to be very idiosyncratic so you may have to try more than one. My GF read a lot of reviews and after assessing them bought a Remington MS2-390. She didn't like the way it shaves so she next tried a Panasonic ES2216PC. She's very happy with it, even though it is lavender :_>

Chris I would go with the Braun over the Panasonic based on functionality. Because the cap and the brush are attached to the Braun and with the Panasonic the cap comes off and can fall off anc be broken when it is being transported in your bag which could damage the screen and making the razor useless. As for the M90 and the M60 that really depends if you want to pay for the extra trimmer on the M90, other than that they look the same. Now as for the shave on all of them, I can not say. I have used the M60 and it worked ok. I would expect that the M90 would be the same. As for the Panasonic, I owned a panasonic years ago, but it was not one of the travel ones so I can not say about the shave on them. Hope that helps!!

I've been using it to shave my head every other day for the past two weeks. It does a great job. I've tried multiple kinds of cartridges and DE blades, but have never been able to go against the grain without a considerable amount of irritation, especially on the lower back of my head. Going with and/or across the grain never gave me a good shave. I can rub my head against the grain after a shave and can't feel any hair. There's not pulling or discomfort and takes the hair right off. I've tried the Panasonic ES-LA63-S and it seems to take many more passes than the 790cc.

The first two answers are WRONG. I have used this product for years with two Panasonic razors. Works very well with electric razors. I would say that you should rinse your razor head (to open the groves) to avoid build up of the product while you shave. The product is so silky that your face will be slick even if it is not very visible.

I have never used anything but the "cleaning station."I have started shaving exclusively with a straight razor; I have used my Panasonic only a few times. If you like, I'll sell you mine at a decent price. keeptothecode@hotmail.com

Panasonic wet and dry. Much better than roto shave. Don't waste your money on Roth shave. It's a gimmick

I really can't help much with that. My cleaning system did not last long so I don't use it anymore. I also have an older Braun with a cleaning system and that works great but the Panasonic shaver is far superior for a close shave.

It does not hurt me! I really like this shaver. Seems to be a great value for Braun quality. I have not used an electric in decades...so true...not as close as a blade. But close enough!

I've had it for over three years and never had a problem. It does take a few passes to get a clean shave, but that is true with every electric shaver. I'm sorry you've had this experience. Do you use the protective covering when the shaver is not in use? Can you contact Panasonic and let them know about it? Just a suggestion.

I agree. It's very noisy. Much more so than previous Panasonics and Braun. Also, for me it did not shave well, wet or dry. Another problem is that the shaver heads get HOT and uncomfortable, soon after you start shaving.
