Panasonic ES8109S Shaver – Does the ES8109S Make the Ideal Stocking Stuffer?
By
When my wife gave me the Panasonic ES8109S shaver as an early Christmas gift, I must say that I was a bit surprised. You see, I had been shaving with blades for 25 years, and had never mentioned wanting an electric shaver. I have been using it for about a month now, which is long enough to reveal how it “stacks up” against a traditional blade.
I finally approached my wife and asked her why she had decided to buy me an electric shaver. She explained that it was all about time and convenience. Apparently, she heard me swearing about being late for an important meeting because I had to shave.
Well the days of being late for meetings are definitely gone! With this wet/dry shaver, I can shave on the run virtually anywhere!I can even shave in the shower, which is where I usually shaved with my old blade razors.
One of my concerns, when I first heard that the ES8109S is electric, was buying batteries all the time. My worries were over when I discovered that this model has an automatic battery re-charger! I charge it up for about an hour, and it lasts me about 2 weeks!
VERY convenient!
My next concern was probably the most obvious concern. I was worried that the Panasonic ES8109S would not give me a close enough shave. One of the reasons I never used an electric shaver, was I had heard that the shaves provided were never as close as a blade.
I think, in most cases, that is true. However, this unit has some kind of fancy “triple head” design, which makes my shaves remarkably smooth and close. Easily the equal of my blade, or even smoother!
Finally, this fancy little dude actually cleans and sanitizes itself! Contained within the base is Panasonic’s proprietary cleaning system. It continuously cleans and drys the blades for added comfort and longevity.
So, if you have somebody on your Christmas list that is cussing at their blade razor. Now might be the time to get them the Panasonic ES8109S!
