Features:

Ergonomically designed stainless-steel blade retains sharpness

Safety cone protects skin

Fully immersible for use in wet/dry conditions

Uses one AA battery (not included); 90-minute running time

Protective cap for storage

For fastidious groomers, this trimmer takes care of unsightly nose and ear hair for an impeccable turnout. A much safer alternative to scissors, the ergonomic stainless-steel blade retains its sharpness over time and is surrounded by a safety cone for careful trimming without piercing skin. This model is fully immersible in water so it can be used in the shower or bath as well as in dry conditions. The groomer operates on one AA battery (not included), which yields 90 minutes of use. This grooming tool has a protective cap for when it's not in use and is compact enough to travel with you in a gym bag or carry-on suitcase. --Cristina Vaamonde

Panacea for the hirsutely challenged .....

I've had this trimmer for 2 years now, and what a trouper it's been! I'm one of those evolutionary challenged individuals whom nature forgot when it slowly eliminated fur from teh great apes. It was getting to a point where I seriously considered braiding the unsightly nose hair and perhaps start a new trend a la nose piercing, and call it nostril art. I could claim I was only expressing my artistic side.

My wife got this for my birthday after several bouts of serious sneezing when we were intimate. I have not looked back since. Despite the fact that my sink clogs up with massive amounts of hair this trimmer mows them down and keeps going. Kudos to Panasonic for designing an essential product in every red blooded man's toilet kit!

a good trim

My first effort at facial hair, and I wanted a trim look from the start. This trimmer fits my needs very nicely, the trim guard lets me control beard length easily. The "turbo" mode is also a nice feature. A good product from a trusted company (Remington).

Confusing...

The Good:

Appears to trim just fine. I bought this primarily for a mustache trimmer and it seems to work just fine (only used it once).

The Bad:

When I initially turned it on (with brand new batteries), it ran really fast (and a bit loud - no big deal). However, after about ten seconds, the speed dropped down significantly, but then seemed to hold steady at the lower speed. The metal blades also became quite warm to the touch. What I figured out was it needed oiling! A drop of the supplied oil and the speed went back up and the "warmth" went away too. My guess is this unit was packaged quite awhile ago (it is an older model, isn't it?) and the pre-applied oil must have dried out a bit? It might have been helpful in the instructions to indicate a drop of oil may be necessary prior to first use.

The Confusing:

The unit takes two AA batteries. One (the left one) sits snugly in the bottom of the compartment. The other sits just to the right and on top of the other battery, raised up so the two batteries are diagonal from each another. I initially thought the plastic battery guide on the one end forcing the second battery into this position was misaligned. But it seems to work fine in this diagonal alignment. A simple note in the instructions of the diagonal battery alignment would have been nice.

good, but not great

This is the third Wahl trimmer that I have. This one does the job, but somehow this model does not seem as handy as the other two I have had. It may just be getting used to the attachments, but I don't like these as well.

Customer Reviews

A good, simple wet-dry shaver

I've been using this product and its very-similar predecessors since the early 80's. I've owned Norelco's (which were scary random hair-yanking machines)and also more-expensive Panasonic wet-dry shavers (which worked as well as this one, or better). For my purposes, though, I keep coming back to this one. I nearly always use this shaver while showering. The advantages of wet-shaving are that the water spray keeps the screen free and clear of accumulation, both short-term and long (I have NEVER had to disassemble these shavers to clean them: if I hold the unit in the shower spray for a moment while it is running, it just does not collect any build-up for me), and the hot water naturally softens my beard so that it cuts easily and closely (this also prolongs the life of the blades and screen). I can shave by feel, rubbing my finger over the area, which also erects the stubble just before the shaver passes over it. I go the the gym frequently, so I keep this compact and durable unit in my gym bag and use it in the shower there. It uses two AA batteries, either standard or rechargeable. I just keep a fresh pair of batteries in the little drawstring bag that comes with it, because they last so long (about 2-3 months of daily use), but give up pretty suddenly when they are finally discharged... so I can quickly and easily swap them out whenever I need to (just be sure to keep the sealed inner workings dry when the case is open or you'll invite corrosion, naturally). I don't expect ANY electric shaver to do it all. I use a disposable blade razor to clean up, especially on my neck, after the shower. I also use olive or almond oil on my skin when it is wet, and this is what I use as a shaving aid, as well. I've never used shaving cream or gels in my life, so maybe the oil/water combo is part of what keeps this unit so free-flushing and clean during use. I usually buy a new unit every year or two, just to have sharp cutters (it's usually more cost-effective than buying just replacement cutters). This shaver is a good, very simple, reliable unit. (Note that there is no sideburn trimmer, per se.)

The nose trimmer is good, won't yank hair unless maybe if the battery is almost dead and the cutter isn't spinning fast enough to cut. I wet the cutting parts with water just before using to provide some lubricity and get it up to speed, and it works very well that way. The cutting head disassembles and reassembles easily for cleaning under running water, keeping it sanitary.

Customer Reviews

Excellent beard trimmer!

The trimmer works great for my beard and is very easy to keep clean. It may be a little tricky to work around my mustache, but that's just my fault. It offers many beard-lengths to choose from, as well.

Excellent Beard Trimmer - Not 220v Friendly

The Remington MB-200 is as excellent a trimmer as reviewers state. Unfortunately it isn't world class friendly. In fact it's the only gadget I've purchased in years that is 120 volts only. This is surprising given that a trimmer would be a common travel item.

Working well

This Trimmer is working as expected and doing well. It's just a couple of times I used it until now, but is working well. Must see how long it will last. But is good value for money.

Customer Reviews

Never mind the doubters - Excellent product

I bought one of these about 6 years ago and have loved it from day one. Time was finally catching up on it though, the battery was pretty much useless. I came online to find one just like it. I do not like the style of any of the newer trimmers out there. I found one here and it works great. It's only slightly different/updated from my original.

As far as the comments about the trimmer/guard not staying in position? I have not had this problem with either of the two that I have owned. Maybe they are just pressing WAY too hard.

Does what it should - a good value

I never had a beard before (I'm 75) so I wanted a trimmer that would let me control the length and shape of my facial hair. I checked reviews of the Philips Norelco T970 trimmer and they were very good, but not uniformly excellent. My experience has been that the trimmer was underrated - it's outstanding in every sense - does what it's supposed to do very well, has easy and useful controls and is no noisier than an electric shaver. I'm delighted with it!

Customer Reviews

Great no snag shadows

This works great for that 5 o'clock shadow. I use it for that a couple of times a week for that and haven't recharged it yet so not worried about pluggin in the charger all the time. Cheap stand. Can't vouche for the other attachments or features. Wish it had the vacuum the Norelco has.

AMAZING.... KEEPS MY STUBBLE LOOKING STELLAR... A+++

Great design. Great function. I do not use any of the attachments. Just the raw trimmer.

Works amazingly easy. Just swipe your stubble every 1-2 days for that constant 5-o'clock shadow look. Works better than any others i have used. Battery is still going strong, months after my first charge. Amazing. Light weight and easy to throw into your luggage for trips and vacation. Highly recommended.

Great for Stubble Trimming

As other reviews have pointed out, the plastic attachments for this aren't the greatest. The first and only time I attached one, it didn't even completely attach.

However, this is perfect if you just want to trim yourself down to the 5 o'clock shadow look like myself using the bare trimmer. In fact, this trimmer gave me a more even trim than I've even gotten with razors. Razors are really irritating to my skin but using this trimmer without any attachments felt fine.

Personally, I didn't *want* a ton of attachments because I knew I wouldn't use them. Making this trimmer perfect for me. In case you haven't read other reviews, it is rumored to have excellent battery life as well, but I haven't had the trimmer long enough to test this myself.

Best cheap beard trimmer out there

At $10 you can't go wrong. If you want a razor close shave, buy a razor. This beard trimmer is light weight, easy to use, and works on common AA batteries. I have one that I have been using for 6+ years. Batteries last for several months, it is easy to clean and gets the job done fast and cleanly.

Worth it for the price and convenience

It's not a total piece of crap. I wouldn't use this as my daily trimmer but I keep it in my drawer at work and use it for those days we go out partying after. I didn't have problems with it pulling my hair. It's cheap and easy to use. The battery operation aspect is cool too.

Big nose.

Well I have one.

Top that off with black hair.

So every once in a while I need a small makeover.

It works but you must spend like 20 minutes moving it around

to get them all.

So I am not that happy with it.

But doesn't eat the battery.

Comes with a nice small bag so it can travel with me.

Excellent Site

Was extremely happy with my purchase and the delivery was quicker than stated. Bravo, for a wonderful site and excellent Service.

Thank You!

Beard shaper not really a great trimmer

First off, this seems to be a great product if you are looking for a beard shaper, but I am a little dissappointed with the trim ability. Non of the attachments are very short. I like my gotee pretty short, just above the stubble stage and it seems like the attatchments go from stubble to pretty long. Maybe I have not messed around with it enough to know all the secrets but so far only very little or a lot of hair on the chin.

The motor is strong and it trims well. Also like the cord/cordless feature. It is a sturdy model.

Very good trimmer

I have used this to shave my head several times in the shower. It works great.

Doing its job smoothly...!!

Tried a couple of non-panasonic brands and decided to come back. This one works smoothly. Can go as short as 0.04" without a problem. A bit wider than I thought and that's why the 4 stars.

From Panasonic Nose Ear Hair Trimmer

Panasonic ER421KC lighted nose/ear hair trimmer. LED light for precision cut. Ergonomically designed stainless steel blade. Wet/dry. Rinses clean. Battery operated.

Features:

Bright focused light for precision and accuracy

Curved, hypo-allergenic stainless steel blades leave proper amount of hairs for natural filtering

Fully Immersible

Trims nose and ear hairs

Easy to hold

The Panasonic ER421KC Nose and Ear Trimmer comes equipped with a built-in, bright, focused light for precise and accurate grooming. You can keep your nose and ears clean and trim without worrying about navigating your nostrils and ear canals in the dark. Designed to be used in or out of the shower, this trimmer can be rinsed under a faucet for quick and easy cleaning. Wet or dry, your nose and ears will be groomed exactly how you like them.

The trimmer's stainless steel blades leave the proper amount and length of hairs to help ensure you still benefit from nature's design. Without some hair in your nose and ears, you increase your chances of inhaling irritants and contracting disease, but your grooming needs are worry free with the ER421KC. Panasonic has also designed this trimmer with a safety cone that guides hair into the blades and protects the skin from direct contact with the rotary trimming system.

To properly use your trimmer, turn it on and carefully insert the tip of the outer blade into your nostril or ear canal to trim the hairs. Do not insert the device deeper in your ears or nose than the narrow tip of the outer blade, and avoid applying pressure when using the trimmer because you could run the risk of damaging your skin. If used once a week and properly cleaned, the ER421KC blades should last approximately three years. To properly clean your trimmer, remove the outer blade frame by turning and raising it upward. Detach the inner blade from the outer blade, and wipe them off gently with a tissue to remove hairs, dust, and other debris. Be sure to that the switch is turned off before removing, mounting, or cleaning the blades.

The ER421KC is easy to clean because the whole unit can be washed in warm water. Be sure to wipe off any excess water and allow the blades to dry completely before mounting them back onto the trimmer body. Remounting the blades is a breeze -- simply place the inner blade back onto the outer blade, and then place the outer blade onto the body by pushing down gently and twisting clockwise.

Groom unwanted hair from your nose and ears.

Customer Reviews

works great

This thing works great. Does not pull any hairs at all. Could have done without the light, but I didnt buy it for the light. I bought it to trim my nose hair and it does a great job. Nice and easy to clean as well. Just take a couple pieces apart, wipe them down, run them under some water, dry them and you are done. I highly recommend. Fast, painless and easy to clean. Exactly what I was looking for.

Fourth type of nose hair trimmer tried

I tried two no name brand nose hair trimmers which lasted for a total of around a year. Did the job, barely. I wasn't very dissapointed when the second one broke, I decided to spend some money and buy the Turbo-Groomer. It lasted a year and a half and would sometimes not run, you would have to open it up to get it to move. It broke so I bought this. Not expensive, quiet, works very well, I've had it about a week so far, not sure about longevity but I would recommend it.

Great little product

This thing does what it says it does, has three cutting attachments to hit any angle you need, and nearly zero instructions to confuse the heck out of you. Very, very straightforward and easy to use product. If you are looking to spend very little money for very good value, this is a product worth your time and cash.

Totally happy

I used a Sharper Image Trimmer prior to the Remington HPNE-3000 and find the latter to be far superior. It is very ergonomic in size and shape and does a better job and the various heads add to its versatility.

Very Good Product

The HPNE-3000 is a good value. It runs on one AA battery and is very versatile with its three different heads. Feels solid and looks classy. I am glad that I purchased this product.

Customer Reviews

Degrades over time.

At first, I liked the Norelco Vacuum trimmer quite a bit--it was nice to have all the hair vacuumed up as I trimmed my beard. However, it's degraded over time. I'm not sure whether the blades dulled out very quickly, but after six months of use, it requires many, many passes to trim to the desired length. I did not have this experience with my previous trimmer and I will be looking for a new trimmer soon--retiring this one after less than a year of service.

Great Beard & Moustache Trimmer

I purchased this product for my husband. He loves it! It's height adjustment works great and the hair is caught in the container and doesn't make a mess in the sink! I would reccommend this product to everyone who needs it.

Wahl Trim N Vac Vacuuming Beard and Mustache Trimmer Rechargeable Cord / Cordless with Durachrome Finish

From Wahl Beard Trimmer

Wahl Trim'n Vac with powerful built-in vacuum that collects hair as it is cut. Heat to toe grooming without the mess. This trimmer features a no-mess collection chamber is easy to open and clean, 11-position length guide and precision steel blades that self-sharpen for lasting quality. The kit also includes a charger, cleaning brush, mustache comb, oil, storage pouch and instructions in English and Spanish. The brand used by professionals.

Features:

Powerful vacuum feature with no-mess collection chamber that is easy to clean. Clean Sink - No Mess

11 position beard regulator that easily changes setting and locks firmly in place to trim at the desired length

Precision steel blades that stay sharp longer

Rechargeable cord/cordless operation

Accessories and convenient storage pouch to maintain and store your Wahl beard and mustache trimmer

How pleased would your wife be if you could shave each morning without leaving a sink full of stubble? Wahl's Trim-n-Vac beard and mustache trimmer has a vacuum intake port at the trimmer head to capture and draw cut facial hair into a collection chamber at the shaver's base. The vacuum is, at minimum, 85 percent effective (depending on the length of the hair being cut), and the collection chamber is easy to open and clean. This innovative design, along with the Trim-n-Vac's ability to operate without a cord, make the trimmer great for travelers with hectic schedules who may need a quick shave while in the car or at the airport.

The trimmer has a rotating head that pivots 90 degrees to expose either a wide cutting blade for beards, or a detail blade for trimming edges and the lip line. An 11-position beard regulator easily attaches to the trimmer's head to provide consistent and safe tapering and trimming of your beard and mustache. The 11 positions range from a height that tackles longer hairs (for example, if you are shaving off your beard) all the way down to a short height for trimming daily stubble. For convenience, the beard regulator remembers the last set length height until you change it. For additional comfort during shaving, the Groomsman has a contoured ergonomic handle and a well-positioned thumb-operated power switch.

The Trim-n-Vac operates either plugged in via its electric charger or runs on its long-lasting nickel-cadmium battery, which is estimated to last three to five years before needing replacement. The trimmer and charger are small enough to stash in the included pouch for travel along with all the accessories—the beard regulator, a beard/mustache comb, cleaning oil, and a cleaning brush. A storage stand holds the trimmer and all the accompanying accoutrements in your regular trimming location. Wahl's Groomsman trimmer is covered by a two-year limited warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde

Features:

Dual Rotating Trimmer Blades: The Trim-n-Vac features two trimmer blades: one standard-width blade for full grooming, and one narrow-width blade for close and detailing trimming. The blades are mounted on a fully rotating head, so that both blades utilize vacuum system.

Ergonomic Contours: The Trim-n-Vac was designed not only with your beard in mind, but with your comfort as well. It is comfortable to hold and lightweight.

11-Position Adjustable Guide: The Trim-n-Vac includes an 11 position trimming guide comb that provides exact blade-to-beard accuracy. It also has a memory function that keeps the guide at the exact setting even when the guide is removed.

Designer Stand: Our engineers designed a stand that's just as stylish and innovative as the Trim-n-Vac itself. The Trim-n-Vac is rechargeable cord/cordless, and can be charged while in its stand.

Customer Reviews

Very well worth my money!!

This product was very well worth the money I spent on it. It works perfect and I recommend it to anyone that has a problem with razor bumps.

good product, poor instructions

I had to figure out how to orient the trimmer relative to my face, but once I did it worked very nicely.

I can't do without it

For over 5 years I've owned a Wahl Trim n Vac. I bought mine at WalMart for $49.95 back then. It has been well worth the price. I get an excellent full beard and mustache trim, and very little hair escapes the vacuum.

Prior to my Trim n Vac, I owned beard trimmers from Schick and Norelco. The difference is like night and day. There was hair all over the sink with the other models, and the trim wasn't anywhere near as good.

After 5 years of being shuttled between my home and hotels or apartments, the charger now has stopped working. I considered either ordering a new charger from Wahl or purchasing a new Trim n Vac from the Wahl outlet store. That is, until I found that Amazon sells a new Trim n Vac for $19.99. Incredible.

I highly recommend this product. I have read the other reviews and seen the complaints. Take it from me, a long time user. This product should be appreciated for the excellent trim that it gives you and the mess that is avoided. There is no other product on the market that provides the quality trim and vacuum feature. It is well worth the reduced price that Amazon offers.

No vacuum

That's a nice little device. My husband likes it. But he said there no vacuum at all. I don't think that is a defect.

Does the Trick

It's hard for me to wax poetic about a nose hair trimmer. I will say that it does what advertising says it will do. I like the vacuum feature. This is a step up from the cheaper, smaller trimmers and worth the extra bucks.

Trimmer

Cuts closer than the Panasonic ER411 which lasted about a year before it fell into the sink and broke the catch that holds the cover the cutter blades. Seems to be much better quality.

Clean, but not close

The vacuum feature is very helpful, but I think it keeps you from getting a true #1 trim on the beard. I had a titanium without the vac that broke, so I thought this would be an upgrade. Works well, but could be better.

Good Product

Nice product. I have owned a previous model before this and really liked it. This one is similar in function and performance and hence gets full marks. The only thing they could have improved was ergonomics.

good

its good and that vaccum, oh man! that thing is crazy i tell ya....CRAZY it works so well...its just like vroooomm and sucking in all that nasty hair that you be shaving off and a thang you know homey????? yeah babay well that be all i gotta say about that...mmmhhhmm! buy this trimmmer!

works great for me

this works fine. it was a great price and it comes with multiple guides for trimming hair to different heights. well worth the money.

Nice little trimmer

Works good, doesn't pull hair, easy to use. The finishing of the plastic body is a bit crude but that doesn't affect the performance of the trimmer. Works on 2 AA batteries so no need to worry about electric points, cord lengths, recharging etc. Very convenient. no complaints.

Customer Reviews

Great for "Manscaping"

Like the title says, I use this for manscaping the squid and boys. Works great for this. Never had a cuttage problem to date!!!

Compact, effective, durable, but short battery life

Bought one around 2002 and I'm happy to say it still works to this day, but the charge only lasts about 3 minutes and the blades move very slowly. I recall it starting to lose its charge around the third year, and so I looked for another one but could no longer find it in stores, and at that time I wasn't into Internet shopping, so I settled for a Wahl 9918 (after trying/returning 15 or so others), which still works perfectly do this day, but is not suitable for trimming/evening out hair on the head, legs, arms, chest, etc, plus you need the chord to recharge it. The Pansonic is very compact, has a super, easy-to-use depth gauge and has a built-in plug, making it simplier to use. It seems others have had problems with the charge too, and I think with this new one I'm going to avoid keeping it plugged in the majority of the time, as that may have over-burdened it and shortened its life span. I ordered four so I'd have a few backups in case they ever discontinue this, which I'm sure they eventually will. I've tried them all, and this is the best around for trimming applications.

Customer Reviews

The best clipper I've ever used

I've been cutting my own hair for years and have been disappointed with consumer grade hair clippers and so decided to buy the Oster Classic 76 combo (Finisher). These clippers are used by old school barbers and work great. I expect to be using this one for years to come.

Awesome

This thing cuts my hair like it is melted butter...I have tried and tried brands from Target or Wal-mart but nothing cuts my hair in the first run...I would usually end up wearing out my scalp by the number of times I would have to go over it with the cheap clippers...All old news now. These are awesome clippers. If you want salon quality hair you need salon quality clippers...nuff said.

Oster 76 + T-finisher combo

Ask any barber what the "old standby" clipper is, and they will almost invariably say it is the Oster 76. Let me caveat this by saying that I am NOT a barber, I do NOT play one on TV, but I DO have a couple decades worth of experience with clipper cuts. Prior to this purchase, I think I have officially run the proverbial gamut with regard to clipper sets. From the $25 el-cheapo sets to $100+ cordless units; from Andis to Wahl, this one outperforms them all by a long shot.

Now, I'm not going to over-inflate this review, as there are some drawbacks to this set. First is the size (diameter). If you are a young person, a small person, or if you just have dainty little hands, this may be a bit of a challenge for you to get a comfortable grip on. The second issue is the weight. For the previously-mentioned folks, finessing this instrument may pose somewhat of a challenge. It isn't overly-heavy, it's more of a cumbersome device.

On the other hand, what this indicates to me is that inside the virtually unbreakable casing, one can expect to find a workhorse power plant. I hear that next year they are planning to produce a twin-turbo diesel model with a rear bagger, and a hedge clipper attachment. OK, so that part is a lie, but it does make a good segue to my last point: The noise. I like it; it says "quality" to me. You may find it overkill, but it is by no means as cacophonous as some others have made it sound.

The best feature of these clippers is the quick-change blades. They literally snap right on - no need to unscrew the old, align and screw on the new! They are also very high quality, and stay relatively cool, even after prolonged use.

The T-finisher is a solid item too. If you don't need it, don't bother though. Buying the combo saves you money, but the 000 blade (included with the 76) will do the same thing as the "T". I have found that for tight trimming, the Wahl Peanut does a great job.

I'm glad I got this combo, and I hope this review helps you decide what to get. I also understand that the Oster Fast Feed Clipper is a pretty nice set. If you don't want to spend over a hundred bucks on a clipper set, you might want to look there as well. Here is the same item with the T-Finisher: Oster Fast Feed Clipper & T-finish Trimmer Combo.

Cheers!

Customer Reviews

Panasonic ER112BC

Great little product. Although it rattles a little when you turn it on, it works well.

Great for nose, worthless on ears

As other reviews state, this Panasonic ER112BC works great on nose hair. No pulling or pain. However, I have found it useless for ear hair and will have to buy another product for that. I have found that the long flat-blade style trimmers (instead of the rotary trimmers like this one) work best on ear hair.

Durable and works as advertised.

I've had the practically identical ER115 version (wet/dry washable) for many years, probably around 5 or 6. First off, this thing is built like a tank for what it is. Very solid plastic, and the movable parts like the cap for the battery and the on/off switch have a precision, quality feel that is usually absent with [..]grooming products. I've dropped it more times than I'd like to admit, and it there's not even a scratch on it, plus it works almost as well as when new. It's great for ear hair, which seems to grow faster the older I get...I find I use it at least 3-4 times a week to keep well-groomed. It also works for nose hair, which I guess is its main function, but I find that if the battery isn't really fresh, it slows down a bit and can pull hard on a hair instead of cutting it(ouch-but I've never drawn blood)...but then again, this thing IS about 6 years old and the blades have never been sharpened. I seem to recall that the manual that came with it suggested replacing the unit like after 2 years (anyone else read that?)but I've gotten a lot of use out of this little sucker!

wahl peanut hair clipper trimmer

From Wahl Hair Clippers

Don't judge this clipper/trimmer by its size. Only 4" long and weighing less than 4 oz. the Peanut features better power and performance than a full-size version, allowing you to clip hair and trim facial and body hair with ease. The precision blades snap on and off easily and come complete with four cutting guides from 1/8" to 1/2". Also includes convenient, reversible finger-ring, oil, cleaning brush and operating instructions.

Great little clipper!!

This is so very handy. I am basically bald. I use a $100 Andis clipper with a #1 cutting guide for the sides. The Peanut is the perfect for the final touches. My wife says the Peanut allows her to give my head the "perfect horse shoe."

Excelent product

This is the 2nd peanut I buy, I shave my head 2-3 times a week depending on social activities and this machine is the best I have had for the past 7 years. And I have had Osters, Norelcos, and Revlon

Fantastic Trimmer

I bought this clpper because my barber used it when I asked her to shave my head completely bald. It works really well and is affordable.
