Review on Panasonic ES-RT37 electric shaver, blue/silver by Shimamoto Tatsuki ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Best thing for the money, glad I did it.

Great electric shaver! Until the age of forty, he used only machine tools, mainly Gillette with two blades. I shaved once every two days - I'm not really a “brunette”. But, as something laziness became, the last time. Decided to try electro … This is my first, there is nothing to compare with. I will say right away - you should not expect speed and cleanliness of the machine from an electric razor. Which is logical - the blades can not fit as close to the skin. But there are also advantages. This model was chosen according to the criteria: - wet shave with foam - waterproof (I wanted to shave in the shower) - not rotary - I wanted closer to the classic machine - comfortable ergonomics - good brand - good price (I took a promotion for 2,590 in April 2022) Didn't guess. In a well-known federal electronics super-market, I felt several, close in price, models from different manufacturers. This one - "fell in the hand" perfectly (unlike the vaunted "Braun"). The razor is moderately weighty (not completely “empty”, which I don’t like), the rubberized inserts are well made, not in a cheap style. Convenient stop under the finger (sorry, not the same rubber material). The body of the trimmer interferes a little, but you quickly forget about it. Now to the quality of shaving. Everything is quite good here, I was even pleasantly surprised - I did not count on such a good result. As they wrote here, the skin should adapt to a new tool for some time. I have found that I find it more comfortable to shave with a small amount of gel that I simply squeeze onto the razor foil. My skin is quite smooth, without flaws. I do not look at myself in the mirror, but simply check the cleanliness with the fingers of my free hand. I shave, of course, longer than with a machine tool - in many passes, but this is not critical for me. After five minutes, the chin feels perfectly smooth to the touch. In the reflection, if you look closely, you can see that he didn’t shave with a machine, but it doesn’t matter - rarely anyone looks at me from twenty centimeters =) There will be questions - write "in a personal", I will just gain more operating experience =)

Pros
  • Ideally lies in the hand. It shaves well "dry", with foam - in general, almost like a machine. Truth. But more time needs to be spent. There are no cuts and there cannot be. The razor pleasantly massages the face, sometimes it heats up a little. It makes no sense to press hard - it’s better not to shave, but it can come to irritation with unnecessary zeal. Great design for my taste. Good assembly, all parts fit snugly together. The transparent case covering the blades and the power button is convenient and aesthetic. Yes, the "twin brother" Panasonic "ES-RT77" in black looks better, but the price tag is noticeably higher (if with a discount promotion for "RT37", as I bought). Noise is normal. Charges quickly and lasts a long time. The battery was charging as promised - exactly an hour, the village worked almost the same =) If anyone thinks about the choice - I recommend.
Cons
  • There is nothing to compare - the first electric razor. Maybe from the "minuses" - the speed of shaving. Thought it would be faster. I put five points - although, for sure, there are razors "at a space price" that work better. And I just have nothing to compare with, except for the machine.
