Panasonic continues to develop its concept of “straight razor” by adding a new reference to its “i-shaper” range, the ER-GY60. This model is dedicated to both the beard and the body. We tested it both ways.
Confusing at first glance, but very simple and practical to use with its “straight-cut” concept, the Panasonic ER-GY60 razor is a completely convincing alternative product. Dedicated to the beard, body and sensitive parts, it performs its task perfectly and offers a perfectly balanced performance/price ratio.
Strong points
- Ideal for “sculpting” your beard.
- Good performance on the body.
- Comb sensitive areas.
- Autonomy.
- Washable.
Weak points
- No charging station.
- 300 g of printed instructions in the box
- Striations on the adjustment dials which get dirty quickly.
NB: The reported price drop is calculated by comparing the lowest price of the day with the average of the lowest prices charged by all merchants for the product last month, with security rules to exclude the prices of stores whose the VAT policy is not clear (so-called “gray” stores, typically in the case of imports from China).
Alternatively
Philips is skillfully trying to expand its line of razors/trimmers for men by offering a device directly related to male beauty. Bingo: the 1000 Series is a real success, the rikiki price of which is surprising. Ready to complete equipment and meet the expectations of men concerned about the good maintenance of their beard, this little razor/trimmer suffers from no real fault except its battery operation.
