I've been using Panasonic ES6013(predecessor of ES4036) since last 7years. Believe me it is a great product and I purchased that product @Rs 3700 and there was no maintenance at all and till last year it was giving at least 4 clean shaves(each 7min) after one charge. Since last year, battery degraded and was only giving me a couple or single shave and finally it gave up few days back.
I got in touch with Panasonic, but they couldn't guarantee that they will find a battery replacement and even if they do it might cost me around 1500. Hence, I decided to purchase this product. Amazon delivered this product just in 1 day and I've used it today. It is of a same quality as the old machine and I'm confident that even this product will give me service for another 5 years easily.
Just wanted to share my experience with this product:My beard is neither soft nor hard, I would say it is medium.
When I purchased this product, for initial few days I felt that it is not suitable for me. Then I read instructions given by Panasonic and started using it the way they explained. Then I started feeling comfortable with it and after couple of weeks I was able to complete my shave within 5 minutes and shave was smooth and easy. It never hurts your skin and you will be surprised to see such a close shave and that dry shave. I never had to use wet shave with this even if I try to shave a week old beard.
You just have to hold it with a slight angle and then move it upwards. DO NOT push it towards your face thinking that it will give you a close shave. You don't have to do that. All you need to do is stretch your skin and then softly move it in that area. Even though this is a reverse direction to your beard but it won't hurt you.
Pop-up trimmer is also a good addition and it is perfect for trimming your hair, mustache.
This product is worth investing and it is absolutely excellent product.
