Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

To date I have owned 3 Panasonic wet/dry shavers. I have only been satisfied with the ES8077S, which unfortunately broke due to rough handling of my travel bag by airport personnel. I replaced it with another Panasonic wet/dry which I bough overseas, but don't remember the model. Although it worked using different voltages, it wouldn't keep charge for longer than one shave after only a couple of months. My latest, the ES8103 (the product currently reviewed), does not fare much better. After only a few months the display has stopped working, so I have been having to guess when it needs recharging. And guess what, it now (within way less than a year's time) it holds charges way and way shorter. Oh, and in case you're wondering; I do treat stuff gently and with respect. I'm disappointed in having to buy one of these every year, if they even last that long... May 29 update: Just lowered my rating from two stars to one star. The battery on this shaver has lasted me less than a year, since I now need to charge it after every use. So my bottom line on this product is: great technology, horribly cheap materials. In my book that equals to a bad deal and not a good way to spend $80.- Would appreciate learning of better alternatives, if they still exist in an era where almost everything is plastic from China. UPDATE: Early June I ordered a replacement hoping to fare better this time. Unfortunately no such luck, it is late July and the indispensable LCD display has already given up. Such a disappointment. Now considering my options because having to guess when the shaver needs recharging is not a lasting solution. Anyone out there know of any wet/dry shavers that will actually last...? FURTHER UPDATE (3/15): I have been extremely pleased for several months now with the Braun wet/dry 5040s. When I get around to it I will post a review on it elsewhere. Note that the Braun 5 Series is made in Germany, and has lifetime warranty. Anyone else who is tired of cheap plastic "make believe" products from China (no disrespect for this great country or its people), I highly recommend the Braun series 5. It is the REAL DEAL folks! There is not even any comparison between it and the Panasonic shavers. It is like comparing a Rolls with a rickshaw, or a Porsche with a pedicab!
