Amazon.com Review
There's nothing worse than putting on a swimsuit and seeing stray hairs peeking out around your bikini line, but razor burn, painful waxing, and harsh chemicals are almost as bad as stray hair. Panasonic's bikini shaper and trimmer lets you keep those hairs as they should be--private--without using any of the above alternatives. These clippers are basically just a narrow (the blade is just 1 inch wide) version of standard clippers, but they offer a few special extras, such as the five-position trimming and shaping guide. The guide lets you choose exactly the length of hair you want to keep, ranging from 5/8 to 1/8 inch long. We especially appreciated the guide's rounded tips, which make it easy to avoid gouging yourself as you're trimming. For shaping, the guard comes completely off for super-close clipping. The surgical steel blades are hypoallergenic and are sure to last for several seasons. The unit operates on two AA batteries (not included), and includes a one-year warranty. --Ariel Meadow Stallings

Genius Design - Reviewed on 2008-09-07
To begin with: For irrational reason like the name "Panasonic" I did not like the company.
Over the years, in search for perfect shaving, ~$4000 spent in experimenting; only Panasonic shavers came close to DE razors for acceptable results. Once you open that shaver, you'll find why!!! Well thought design. This gadget shares the same Panasonic design philosophy.
If you want to experiment; buy this one, cheap and open all parts and see, clean, and close - capable. Looks like they deliberately designed this stripped-down version of their high end(200+$) shavers. I guess, marketing strategy. With minor modifications (alternative trimmer head); black color; extraneous packaging this becomes expensive men's shaver. So, all in all, for the stated purpose they give out a lot with this one. Comfort: Good / best amongst available. Cleanability: Very nice. Color: I like purple. It's a classy gadget. Solid construction good color. Good hold/feel. Nice power. For lazy days, remove the top cap and it becomes nice shaver that gives the looks of one-day shave. Perfect for people who like 1 to 2 mm of beard vs clean shave. Use with a good cream like Geo F Trumper and this becomes a very nice shaver too. Hint: if you have some tools, get another replacement head and file it to the thinnest feasible section and you'll get the 200+$ shaver for the cost of ~5 $ & 15 min.
Any second thoughts before buying? NONE.
Just buy it. You'll love it.
