I tried a $30 trimmer previously, with all kinds of attachments, and adjustable guards and combs, and I have to say there is something to be said for simplicity! No frills, bells, or whistles - came with exactly what I needed - simple brown cardboard packaging, simple instructions, an assortment of guards, and some extra heads for detail and ear/nose trimming. The guard combs are comfortable, and unlike the more expensive razor I tried before, trims smoothly without pulling hair. The blade cuts well, and quickly trimmed down my beard, which had gotten longer than I realized. It doesn't bog down or jam with thick hair, and trims very well. I also was able to edge, and clean up my neck without any trouble. I like that this unit does not come with a big gaudy holder which only takes up shelf space. I only ever use 1 or 2 accessories anyhow, so the ones I don't use as much I can leave in the included pouch and put them away, dust free (can't say the same for a caddy that just takes valuable shelf space and only collects dust and grime!). Anyway, this trimmer works great for me, and was a good value! I didn't get a chance to use it long enough to rate the battery life, but I expect it will be just fine. Edit: I've been using this a while now and it rarely needs charging. Battery lasts a good long while and I am very happy with it so far! Read more

I originally bought this for clients at work. (I worked at a nursing/rehab facility) they would come in, need a shave & not have a razor & the ones we provided were one blade & awful! Once I left, I brought it home & it became the dog's razor. I shave my puggle. (Yes.. my luggage. He loves it!) It only came with a few different extensions, and a little cheap bag. The battery lasted quite a while every time id charge it. My fiancée also uses it to shave his back. (Er, technically, I use it). It doesn't require any oil. You can rinse it with water (just make sure you let it fully dry before using again). Anyways.. I'd say it got used at least twice a month between my fiancée & the dog. The dog used the middle size, and no cover at all for my fiancée. After 4 years, its finally died. I'm not sure whats wrong with it. I charge it, and it will turn on and shave & then die randomly & turn back on randomly. I like the fact that I can take the entire head off, and clean inside. I like that I can clean where the actual blade is. Id recommend this, if you're looking for something that's quick, cheap, and effective. If youre looking to shave your head, back, or dog, its amazing. If you are looking to do your nose, and intricate designs, or a few different sizes, id recommend going with something else. The blade is sharp, and never lost its dullness. But, like I said, it only came with a few different sizes. The little carry case is a cheap, pos. Although, I still have mine, fully intact. Its nothing fancy, but if you're on the go, I'd recommend upgrading to your own travel case. If its going to sit in the bag, on a shelf, in your bathroom, it should be fine. Happy shaving! 😊 *i just went to Walmart to buy a new one, and they had this exact one for 18$* [I did use this for 4 years!!] Read more

Very pleased with this trimmer. They give you plenty of attachments and the small one is perfect for detail work around my beard. The teeth seem to move more rapidly than other trimmers I've owned, which seems to make it do a better job. It is well designed and feels solid. I would highly recommend this trimmer. How I review: When I review a product said product automatically starts with four stars as I rarely will purchase anything below four stars. I then add and/subtract stars based on certain criteria as listed below. 1. If an item is exactly what I expected and nothing more it will receive a four star rating 2. If an item surpasses my expectations it will gain a star (5 Stars) 3. If an item goes slightly below my expectations it will lose a star (3 Stars) 4. If the instructions for the product (if needed) are poorly written (hard to understand due to language issues or grammar) or just too hard to follow it will lose a star no matter if the product meets or exceed my expectations 5. If a product is significantly below my expectations I will deduct two stars 6. It will be rare that I would give a product one star since I buy mostly items that have a 4+ rating but in rare instances there may be a good reason that even a four star product receives a one star rating from me. It could be because of customer service issues from the company but whatever the case is I will clearly explain my reason for giving a product only one star Read more

Works great. Cuts well. Love the attachments. Would give 5 stars but the plastic makes it feel cheap. Read more

Only turns on sometimes after 6 years. I could probably keep using it with the annoyance but I'll probably upgrade to a better Philips trimmer. Definitely recommend, if the same quality it's well worth the money. Read more
