Customer Reviews


Decent...gave me 5 years of service

This has been a reliable trimmer for my beard and mustache. Eventually my toddler dropped it one too many times, and the height adjuster doesn't stay above 4. Even that would be ok for my current style, but the battery is practically dead, so every week I need to charge it all day and night just to get one use out of it.

I'm seriously considering buying this model again if I don't go for the Philips Norelco T780 Rechargeable Vacuum Trimmer instead.


Missing Features and Poor Performance

I bought two of these (T765) trimmers last holiday - one for home and one for travel. For nearly a year, I had been looking high and low for replacements to my previous Philips / Norelco beard trimmers at the department stores: Macys and Dillards only seem to stock the styles with the excessively large bases used for cleaning the trimmer and storing attachments; obviously for travel, these cumbersome styles are useless.

This particular trimmer (#T765) does not cut as sharply and cleanly as my previous model; the lack of a sideburn trimmer and travel pouch is both annoying and disappointing.

My advice: please review all features when shopping for trimmers and read multiple reviews for both positive and negative feedback - judging what is important for you: not cutting sharply and cleanly is a MAJOR issue; not having a sideburn trimmer is frustrating; and missing a travel pouch is annoying but using a plastic sandwich baggie works fine for travel and storage.


Norelco beard trimmer works well

I got this trimmer to replace another Norelco trimmer which had broken. I have been pleased with both of them. They do a good job for me, and I am pretty particular about the way my beard looks. My first one had a vaccuum feature which caught most of the whiskers, and I liked that better than this one, which has no vaccuum. Overall, i'm happy with this one, though.
