I have owned the shaver for over a year now and it still cuts as if I just bought it. Originally I was worried about purchasing a Panasonic razor since the reviews were mixed on customer service. Most reviewers complained after a year the battery life went to zero and when contacting Panasonic Customer service they were no help. I have found my battery life is pretty much the same from when I purchased the item. I use the razor until it is completely drained of battery life and then recharge...do not know if that is the reason the battery has lasted. I also do not leave it on the charger.

All in all the razor battery life and the cutting ability is perfect. very happy with purchase.

I have had a Panasonic Linear Shaver for almost 2 years. It is the only electric that can shave my tough beard as smooth as a safety razor. It is best when used with shaving gel rather than dry. Never cuts or irritates my skin. Previously, I had tried just about all major brands and found Braun to be acceptable. But the Panasonic is, by far the best electric I have ever used.

I have the ES 8066 for two years, which is the same thing minus the one hour charging feature on the 8067. I've had several Panasonic shavers and have tried Norelco, but this one tops everything else I've used. I've never had trouble with the 8066, and I have abused it thoroughly with travel. Just don't drop it on its head. I love shaving in the shower with it in hot water. It's the first time I've had an electric that I actually bothered to replace the cutters and foil last year rather than buy a whole new shaver. But with the price this low on the 8067 at Amazon, it is cheaper to order a whole new 8067 since I was looking to replace my cutters and blades on my 8066. Nice!

A great shaver. Had a Norelco for 5 years prior and it finally gave up the goat. It was a great dependable razor that gave a good shave. The rechargeable batteries finally got to the point where they wouldn't charge anymore. It happens.

Read about the Panasonic on Amazon - saw it on sale and bought it. I've always had good luck with Panasonic electronics so thought I'd give it a shot.

I am soooo pleased. The closeness is awesome. It feels great in my had. It holds it's charge for about 10 days. It cleans easily. The noise is acceptable. I highly recommend.

It has problems picking up hair that lie parallel to the skin. This means that the shaver did not work great with the hair between the neck and the chin. It took many passes to get at areas that are not flat. The shaver took too much of my skin, leaving it irritated. It works well enough so I will not return it, but I will not buy another one after this one is broken. I will get a Norelco instead.

I have a very heavy beard (dark and thick hairs), and I've tried a few different styles of electric shavers. The "round" style, even the expensive ones (lotion-spewing etc), tend to hurt my face and cut me up quite a bit. I've stuck with linear-style shavers because of this.

The Panasonic ES8067S replaced another linear-style Remington shaver I had that broke. Honestly, the Panasonic doesn't give me as close a shave at first. But after a few passes it gets nice and close and I can't tell the difference. The nice thing about the Panasonic is that it never feels like it's "pulling" hairs out of my face. It takes a little longer to shave, but the lack of pain in worth it. :)

It's body is a metal construction and feels very solid and durable. It is easy to clean, and the foil lasts over a year, the blades 2 years. I've been using this razor now for many months and it has yet to give me a problem.

I'd recommend this shaver if you need an inexpensive, effective razor. I think it's a great value.

I have had a few electric razors and all of them would leave hair behind, burn my face and give me a rash or just be totally useless as a shaver. However, this one really gets the job done. It charges in record time as well. This is a really good electric razor for even tough beards like mine but it is still not as good as a safety razor, cream, and a warm towel.

I shave in the shower and need a shaver that gets close to the skin. I've owned a few other electric shavers from panasonic to braun and this shaver is the best still to date.

This razor has lasted me a long time, and still works fine. I just recently thought about purchasing a newer Panasonic but decided to just get a new foil instead. Yes, this is the first time I'm changing the blades in 8 years. This shaver is sturdy, well built, and easy to charge and use. I can use it in the shower, but even better I can rinse the whole thing under water to get hairs out. Plus the 5-min charge feature has saved me many times when I forget to charge the battery.

The charge lasts a long time and the linear motor is amazing. I grow tough beards and sometimes don't shave for a few days when I don't have to work and this shaver eats through long hairs without issue. The motor doesn't slow down, it just keeps chopping those hairs down. It is very easy to clean, put a little liquid soap on the outer foil, run it under hot water and then rinse the inside and everything is gone. The induction charger is great and makes for easy one-handed use plus looks nice and doubles as the stand.

The only complaints I can make about this shaver is that it is loud and that sometimes the on switch gets stuck as if I wasn't pushing down the little button in the middle of the switch.
For those reviewers who can't get those hairs laying down or on your neck, Panasonic knew this and that's one reason they added the pop-up trimmer. Read your instruction manual; it says you can use it at the same time you use the regular shaver for those hard to get hairs. I just pop it up, face the trimmer towards the mirror and use the shaver behind it. Problem solved but the skin can get irritated in those sensitive neck areas, but that's pretty normal for most shavers and razors. Of course the trimmer also works well at trimming. This is my 3rd Panasonic; I started with the cheapies and worked my way up, but now they are quite expensive and at the rate this is lasting who knows when I'll get another?!

I'm looking to buy the Pasosonic razor. I'm trying to decide between the ES867S or the ES8003W. There is a large price difference. Is there an advantage to one over the other? If the ES8003W worht the extra money?
