Product Description
Panasonic has the only non-alcohol based detergent in the industry. The detergent based solution is free of harsh chemicals and cleans/disinfects which keeps the blades lubricated and the blades sharp. Since alcohol is not used, these is no danger of flammability, and even if spilled, it will nor deform or discolor furniture or appliances. The detergent is highly biagradeable, so the cleaning liquid can be poured down the drain without treatment. The disposable cartridge can be discarded as plastic waste.

Outstanding features and capabilities

I'm not sure what the difference is between this model and the ES8077 (new model-year perhaps?) but they both appear to be exceptional razors. I've had it for over two weeks and the battery isn't even close to needing a re-charge. I replaced an older Panasonic razor with this one and found it to provide a superior shave. One of the great things about this razor is the ability to charge it in it's cleaner/charger stand OR with the charger adapter alone. This enables the razor to be used (and charged) practically anywhere in the world and you don't have to drag the cleaner assembly around with it, just the razor and its relatively small plug-in adapter. This was a big plus for me as I travel to Europe periodically. Then again, given the battery life on this thing, it may not even be necessary to charge it while I'm in Europe! Since it's a wet/dry razor, it gives the user an option to clean the razor with soap and water without using the stand and buying cleaning cartridges--something Braun apparently doesn't do and one of the major reasons I abandoned Braun back when they started selling razors that required cleaning cartridges. The cleaning cartridges were a good idea for razor manufacturer profits, dumb idea for a consumer who just wants a razor that works without the monthly fee for cleaning cartridge refills. Braun lost a customer because of that philosophy. I simply don't buy the idea that after decades of razor manufacturer they suddenly need regular special cleanings to work properly. I really haven't found any points of complaint regarding this razor. The manual says your face may need up to 30 days to adjust but the 8078 caused no problems from day 1 (maybe because I was already using an older Panasonic?). You have the option of using the included cleaner base if you want, but you at least have the option of alternate cleaning methods of you don't want to spend that money every month.

Top notch shaver
By John G. Foley on September 21, 2006
I have bought many razors in my lifetime, 72+ years, and have never experienced a better shave than this little beauty. It is just perfect for the every other day shave when one is retired and could replace my four blade razor that gives a very close shave, but this does not leave tender areas that you know you have to put up with for that day. This is the best product that I have seen on the market. Kudos for Panasonic. J. Foley, San Jose, Ca.

Good shaver, Amazon best price, fast shipping
By CHanger on July 22, 2007
First ordered using Amazon Free Super Saver Shipping, but afterward realized it would be several days before they even filled the order let alone shipped the product, which might then still take another week or two to arrive. (Not an issue if you're not in a rush of course). Changed the order to 2-day shipping (cost me $12.47 extra) and the product was shipped the next day and I picked it up the day after that. Amazon's price was the best I could find, especially compared to Canadian prices if you could even find that model 'up here" (which I couldn't). Huge saving. (For any Canadian's, Amazon will only ship to an American address. I'm fortunate to live near the border so just had the shaver shipped to a mail drop service across the line, then went down and picked it up. Customs didn't even charge me any import taxes when I declared it at the border so the entire package ran just over $100 including U.S. taxes and shipping. Half what it would have cost in Canada.) Have used a Panasonic ES8066 13.000rpm shaver for several years, so pretty much knew what I was getting with the ES8078. The ES8078 seems a bit more "plastic-y" than the old ES8066 and doesn't feel as "substantial" in the hand. Only time will tell if it proves as robust. Hopefully I won't ever drop it to find out. And on that note, the shaver "fits" well in the hand and seems easy to hang on to. Oh, and the ES8078 on/off switch is an "electronic" button which you press and hold for a moment to start the shaver, rather than a physical switch you slide up and down as in the old ES8066. (Holding the button a couple seconds puts the shaver into 17,000rpm cleaning mode, something which I don't plan to use).Read more ›
