This product works just fine, I have not had any nicks from the blades, but one thing I would like is softer feeling plastic cutter guards (used to set the depth of cut whilst providing protection from cuts). Being hard plastic they can feel uncomfortable in areas better suited to something soft! Perhaps two part mouldings with a soft silicone outer on the skin contact areas?
Must say that I’m impressed, it’s not great the sensitive attachment for the clipper as the hair left behind is too big, but if you remove and use te clipper without any attachment is great, doesn’t nick the skin at all and I mean using on the sensitive skin, and you can use it under shower!!!
Wish I’d got this sooner. Been ripping my nether regions to bits with my old Remington G4. The sensitive attachment makes it easy it that area, no attachment for rest of body and my head gets everything short enough for me. The adjustable comb for the tash, just wish it had a nose hair attachment.
Was looking to get a trimmer after seeing so many manscaped ads but wanted a cheaper alternative. This does an amazing job and comes with a head that can trim to multiple lengths. Battery life is good and it’s really easy to use, definitely recommend as a cost effective alternative.
The razor that comes with this trimmer is brilliant and sharp.
Trimmer works well and has great battery life.
Brilliant trimmer unfortunately it comes with a 2pin plug and no adapter and there’s no description stating this
This is my husbands third shaver/trimmer and this is by far the bes
No where near as good as I had hoped. It does not give me a close shave, which is what I wanted, and the shaving head is to small. Sorry.
As a clipper, this is perfectly OK. Does the job with no fuss.
On the negative side, the battery life is nowhere near what’s quoted. This wouldn’t matter much, were it not for the other problem:
The clipper is VERY VERY slow to charge up. Takes more than 12 hours, as far as I can tell.
As far as I can tell? Yes, it is also unfortunately impossible to tell when it is fully charged, as the indicator light on the charger NEVER goes out.
I have left the thing plugged in for a couple of days, just as an experiment, and the light does not go out. So how are you supposed to tell? Dunno…
Seems like a shame that a manufacturer such as Braun has skimped on something as important as the battery and charging.
Really convenient for traveling people as I don’t have spent a lot of money on barbers.
I’ve purchased so many clippers over the years for hair & beard but without doubt this is my best purchase. Everything you want from clippers is here in one.
Perfect, just perfect!
Brought for my son he said it’s ok it works.
It’s easy to hold.
Does the job so far. Unfortunately has problems with motor but I’ve owned a lot of braun products so I know this is a one off.
Braun were very helpful on the phone when I asked for help getting this to the service centre, which must be commended.
Battery life is exceptional, practically impossible to cut yourself with the sensitive attachment on, so can be used literally anywhere. Overheats a little with use but nothing too major.
But
The head is a bit too broad, making it a little tricky to manoeuvre around the nooks and crannies.
The discontinued Braun Cruzer Body was better in that area and could also give a much closer shave, nearly indistinguishable from a razor. It’s a shame they stopped making it. I had one that served me well for 10 years and only bought this as a replacement, which sadly could not live up to the standard that has been set over the years.
This is good for the money and it has a longer beard trimming comb.
I have used the product 2 or 3 times at the moment. The trimmer feels light but solid, does it job and has a lot of lengths to choose so quite accurate; the amount of tools provided is also great, with precision trimmer, a ‘clean shaving tool’ and a Gillette pro glide (which I have not used)
The only thing I noticed is the clean shaving tool for the trimmer is not the best. E.g. on the neck area, even after a first pass of the trimmer with no guard on, you need many passes to get an acceptable result – and even then it misses quite a few hairs.
This product is ideal if you like body hair and want to tidy it over if you don’t want it to be overgrown or messy. Thanks to the sliding comb which is between 3 to 11 mm it’s done it’s job what I wanted. I definitely give it a 10 out of 10 for this.
Bought this hair trimmer, to replace my old one , choose for a recognisable brand, at first expected it to be more sturdy in weightz but actually on using it it it makes it light to use cord free, and does very good cut , it may be lighter but this doesn’t effect it’s funtion, it lives up to its reputation, I would recommend i
No nicks which is exactly what you want but the motor isn’t very powerful at all so it takes ages to hack through the foliage
This is a good product. Easy to hold and quick to charge. Also, nice and sharp at the moment but that may change with use. It is a “wet and dry” device, but I’ve only used it dry.
One slight irritation is that the smaller combs (1+2 for the close shave) don’t feel too secure and I’m worried they’ll come off and give me a grade 0 stripe!
Generally good though.
Much nicer to use in the sensitive areas than some of the cheaper options. I have used multiple shavers over the years and this one is much nicer than the battery powered smaller shavers from companies like gillette or every day razors
Bought purely for keeping body hair under control for the missus. I felt like I was dicing with death using a Wahl hair trimmer around the family jewels, after nicking my skin one too many times. This is totally safe in those sensitive areas and much cheaper than the Manscaping branded lawnmower which had poor reviews.
Product is good for the price, but despite being a UK advertised product, it only comes with an EU-style plug for charging. You will need to purchase an EU – UK Plug converter or have one laying around to actually be able to charge & use the product. Other than that, it’s a pretty decent trimmer for the price.
