Score 8.8 / 10
Average of substance, design, and value.
Vertical V-blade and wand grip navigate curves and underarms with unusual control; Red Dot judges credited the blade geometry itself for cutting safety. IPX7 body flushes clean, though blade replacements vary by region.

Its higher price is principally the genuinely different V-head/wand architecture, waterproof build and skin-protection attachment—not a cosmetic bundle. Red Dot specifically credited the vertical blade construction with cutting performance and safety; long-form testing finds the shape useful rather than merely novel.
The thin, rounded blade is intended to cut close while reducing catches on delicate skin.
The non-slip, wand-like body improves directional control when wet.

Rounded V-blade and skin-protection attachment; Red Dot cites safety.
This product: 8.8 out of 10
Excellent object design. The narrow I/wand grip can be held at many angles, and the V head provides unusually clear sightlines and access. There is a short learning curve, and it trims rather than produces a foil-shaved smooth finish.
Waterproof body and serviceable cutting head support regular wet use. Panasonic recommends periodic blade replacement; availability of the WER9500-family replacement is market-dependent, so confirm locally before purchase.

Rotary multi-length attachment avoids swapping multiple combs.
