Wet/Dry Design Allows for Easy Clean Up
The wet/dry design of the Sonic-2 Pro Curve means you can easily clean your shaver by simply rinsing it under running water. The wet/dry functionality also gives you the option of shaving wet with lather while in the shower in addition to dry shaving.

Rechargeable Battery Saves Money and Reduces Waste
The ES4026NC uses an internal rechargeable battery, so you don't have to wastefully buy and throw out batteries. It takes eight hours to fully charge the battery, and each charge lasts for approximately seven shaves.

Slide-Up Trimmer for Sideburns
The ES4026NC has a pop-up trimmer that is perfect for precision grooming of mustaches and sideburns. When you're done, simply tuck it away.

Ergonomic, Curved Design
The Sonic-2 Pro Curve features an ergonomic design with a sporty blue/yellow look. The shaver fits perfectly in your palm so you can easily maneuver it for the most effective shaving. It also features a non-slip grip, so you'll have a good handle even when wet.

The shaver measures 9.1 x 6.7 x 4.7 inches (HxWxD) and weighs just 0.33 pounds, making it easily portable for travel. A travel pouch and AC charger is included in the package.

Customer reviews

« Works well »

I only use it on infrequently. It is not as close as a razor but I did not expect it to be. Seems to hold its charge for at least a couple of weeks. I had an older version which I liked better. I found this unit to be a little large and as such harder to manuver. I don't think I would like this unit if I used it every day. The heads do not float which I think also makes it a little harder to use.

I purchased this model because I can use it in the shower.

« Great Cost/Benefit ratio »

The machine works as advertised. The only thing that you might want to change is the bag that comes with it (it doesn't hold the machine very well). Apart from that, I can't say anything except that I'm a very satisfied customer.

« Like the option wet/dry »

The shaving head is a little smaller than my previous razor, but the wet/dry option is great.

« Waste of money and and is very painful »

I have tried it twice already Dry and Wet(with Shaving Gel), and both shaves have been very painful. At this moment I have major skin burns and cuts on my chin. Had to go back and do the neckline using my conventional rajor. Its more like buying pain .. no matter how good a deal it is.

« Decent performance at a low price »

This shaver is a great value at the sale price. Maybe not so great at list price.

My beard is coarse and wiry, with medium thickness and with 2 days growth this unit gave a comfortable if not super close shave (I use it dry). But I have yet to find an electric that shaves as close as a blade. It does require several passes to get all of the hairs so the 3 minute shave time turns into about 5 or 6 which eats into the already short battery life.

I have not experienced any of the tearing or cutting that some reviewers describe. In fact, this unit is one of the more comfortable electrics I have used compared to more expensive Norelco rotary, Braun and older Panasonic models.
