Can this razor be rinsed clean?

I am not saying you can't do it...but I've always brushed mine clean into a trash can. Less mess that way. When I have brushed it into a sink and then tried to rinse the whisker residue away...it clumped up in the sink.

Yes it is. It keeps the razor much cleaner and more sanitary than a razor without such a cleaning system. Even if you was the razor head and blades regularly with hot water, that doesn't kill bacteria that can accumulate. The cleaning fluid that this system uses appears to be alcohol based and therefore sanitizes the razor each time you put it through a cleaning cycle.

They are two different things. 'can be rinsed quickly' means a quick rinse under tub. If it is wet shaving shaver or not, you need to read the instruction further. In this case, it is not wet shaving shaver.

We now advise for people to try a different cleaning procedure. Removing the blades may be necessary for some people to thoroughly clean the inside, however we have learned its better to primarily clean the shaver head attachment by pulling it out from the shaver base to run warm water over the surface of the blades and then let it dry. This will wash the hair out without having to remove blades.

Yes. I have been very impressed with the shaves and when you use the cleaning system the inside of the razor looks factory new. I do brush the lose whiskers out each time I shave.

I just rinse the razor under hot water after each shave. I have a cup for toothbrushes and I set the razor on the edge of the cup. Haven't taken the blade out after each shave and cleaned it. That seems to be a bit extreme. I suppose you could get more shaves out of a blade, but they are cheap enough that I am glad to get 4-5 before changing.

My husband has had his razor of over a year and I am thinking about replacing them for him. I have just read someone saying that they took their shaver somewhere and had it cleaned and that this person told him that they only needed replacing every three years.

I can eject the blade but the swivel factor is very poor - movement is nearly zero. I always clean and dry my razor after use. I tried soaking it hot water etc. but no improvement so will try soaking the head in CLR to see if that helps.

not at all... depending if you have a lot of beard, you might have to clean your Shaver more often... but that is common sense...

Hi, Yes, this wonderful shaver does indeed come with a small cleaning brush (almost two inches in length). Besides cleaning the blades, you can also remove the blade portion of the shaver by pressing on two identical small round white buttons on each side of the shaver (both located just below the blade portion) and clean the cutter below the blades with the same tiny brush. The instructions on how to properly clean this shaver are included in the manual inside the product's box (if you're going to purchase it in brand new packaged condition).

have not tried it, but it gets wet when cleaning it and it's fine -- a great shaver!

The answer should be know. But after cleaning i run the heads in about a 1/4" of water and dry everything off. No problems for several months and for the price it is a good shaver. I also have the Nivea model that can be used in water but this model may short out if you took it in the shower!

Panasonic sells cartridges that clean and lubricate the shaver. It inserts in the bottom of the device that comes with the shaver and needs to be replaced about once a month. It mixes with water that you put in the tank that comes in the same device which also automatically dries the shaver. I suppose you could rinse the shaver like any other if you prefer. You can order the cartridges for 3 for $10 from Amazon.

Yes? My non-expert opinion, I've been able to produce a clean shave with Feather. http://www.amazon.com/Feather-Razor-Blades-Hi-stainless-Double/dp/B004RWTQTS

Yes, just rinses clean. Sometimes it needs a little dish soap if something greasy spatters on it. Easy to keep clean, though.

I have a similar problem. The razor seems to charge, but the base does not recognize it, so I can't run the cleaning cycle. It worked fine for a long time (I don't remember exactly how long), but now the problem is consistent. Taking it out and putting it back in, or trying to push it against the contacts does not help.

The cleaning cartridge goes in the cleaning base and tap water goes in the water tank in the cleaning base...The razor head is cleaned, rinsed and dried in the cleaning stand...The cleaning cartridge last me about 30 days, I cleaned my razor after each use...The razor can be charged without using the cleaning base...The cord is simply connected to the razor when traveling or on vacation rather than connected to the cleaning base...
