$35 may seem a bit steep for a replacement foil and blades, but installing these made my razor work like new again. If you can get a new Panasonic wet/dry with the 13,000 rpm motor cheap then it may be worth it to buy a new razor instead of new blades. The picture may show one cutting blade but there are two in the package.

Way overpriced I will say, however the blades will last much longer when used wet and with shaving cream. It's a much more comfortable shave when used wet as well.

Cost is absurd. They give away the razor to get you to spend almost half the price for replacement foil and blades. Still, its a very good razor and worth buying the kit every year for 3 year or so til battery wears out.

Be careful Amazon often has the same items sold by various dealers at surprisingly different prices. Shop the web first for the price and then come here for the reliability.

You have a choice, but a new razor at $60.00 or a replacement foil/blade set for $35.00. Why the replacement parts are almost as much as a new razor, I don't know. But I've done that about three times already - got a new razor instead of buying parts and this time, I decided to stick with my Panasonic Razor till the batteries die. This foil/blade set make a big difference. I use my razor dry and wet. But when you notice that you shave the same spot about three times and the hair still won't come off, you probably need new blades. And for the price the Amazon offered, it's the cheapest out there.

Although the packaging says "for use with ES8813, 8078, 8044, 8043, 7109, 7102, 7101, 7058, 7038, 7036, 6003, 6002," the foil and blades fit on the ES8077. My first though upon seeing the disclaimer was that I hadn't gotten the product that I ordered. Not the case. My razor works like new now :-)

The replacement kit was a perfect fit for my panasonic shaver. It made it feel brand new again. One item to note, even though the picture only shows one replacement blade, you do get two replacement blades and one replacement foil in the package.

The only thing that you can really say is that these are the real thing, I just put in my 4th set of replacement blades from here and they all work the same, flawlessly.

I was hesitant to get new parts for my shaver, in fact I was thinking of just buying a new shaver because I wasn't getting as clean of a shave as when I first bought my electric shaver. BUT, after I replaced the screen and blades, it was like getting my new shaver back!

Don't waste your money on a completely new shaver, just replace these parts and you will be happy!

I purchased this combo replacement for the Panasonic ES8077. I shave daily and have a thick beard. This is the 2nd foil and blade replacement in 3 years. I can say without a doubt that the Panasonic is the best electric razor I've owned and I get a closer, less hassle shave than with a regular razor and shaving cream. As long as my razor will hold a charge I will continue to buy replacement foils and blades from Panasonic.

I agree with all the favorable reviews here on Amazon. I can't add much to what has already been said. I've had my Panasonic ES8077 for about 4 years and I replace the blade and foil just once per year. This shaver still works like the day I bought it. The quality of the blades is exceptional and the shaver unit itself it impressive. The battery life, in particular, is amazing. I didn't expect this product to be as durable as it has been. So few electronic products last as long as we expect them to. This is an exception.
