Impressed after first use
After an exhaustive review of the various electric shavers on the marked, I decided on the Panasonic.  Years ago I used a Norelco and was never completely happy, so I switched back to a blade.  I wanted the convenience of being able to shave easier at the gym and camping.  I particularly liked the concept of being able to use this shaver wet - in the shower even. It was a bit strange to fire up an electronic device while showering!  This morning was my first time using the shaver.  I used it with lather, and I must say that I am impressed.  Is it as close as my blade? No, but all shavers suggest you give them thirty days for your beard to adjust.  For the first time, it is a very close clean shave.  If it truly gets better and better over next next 30 days, I think I will be completely satisfied.  Bonus - it looks really cool and has an LED display, which every man loves!  Pricing on Amazon is great, this shaver truly retails for $199 and you can pay that, if you desire.
