Extremely Wieldable, Cheap But Good.
By Tim Skocz on Reviewed in the United States on March 15, 2022
I needed to replace the electric trimmer I'd been using for almost 15 years, so we'll see if this one lasts that long. But even if it doesn't, it's a very good trimmer. Especially for it's price point of something like 13 dollars. Over the two months or so since I got this, I've used it a few times: to trim my dad's hair (where caps it comes with came in particularly handy, though one part required using a comb to trim particular wisps of hair), to cleaning up my thick winter beard so that it looked nice, and then today when I used it to shave off most of my beard, my arms, and legs because it's getting warmer. It does sometimes require more than one pass to completely trim down an area, but that's nothing new for me, and usually happens on the more contoured parts of my body. I had no problem putting the product directly against my skin and using it, and I have sensitive skin, so it's worth noting that it has not drawn blood on my while doing this. That said, I was careful while running it over areas with bug bites and other raised skin locations. The important part is that the blades are small enough that it's not easy to actually draw blood on yourself with this thing, you'd probably have to be trying to do so. Which brings me to my last point, and the headline: It's extremely wieldable. It is very light weight, fits neatly in the hand (or, at least my hand), doesn't have a wire to get entangled with, and cuts hair well. So even the times I had to make a second pass over an area, it wasn't difficult to do so. I have not yet tried the extended grip function, because I haven't tried shaving my back or shoulders with it yet, but with how easy this thing has been to use so far, I imagine that it will be quite handy for that task and that the real difficulty will be seeing what I'm doing with my back. But that might just be a matter of setting up a small fan to blow on my back and then shaving by feeling the difference of how insulated my skin is to determine where to run the trimmer. Or a second mirror. Anyway: great product, I'm very happy with it, and I hope it doesn't turn around and break on me any time soon. update 2023: It still works. The motor slows down as the power in the batteries drain, but once I replaced those it went back to working just fine. At one point I dropped it on the floor and it seemed to go flying apart, but that's how I found out you can detach the blade. I cleaned what little hair had gotten stuck in it and it all fit back together and continues to work fine. I have used to to shear thick beard (which requires going at a steady speed rather than trying to shove it through as fast as possible). I have used the extension function to shave my shoulders, and it generally works fine to well. I've used it to trim my dad's hair multiple times at this point, and between the spacer provided and a comb, I haven't had a problem with it. I think the only times I've had issues are when it was deep summer and I was sweating while shearing body hair off and it seemed to have slow down issues. However, turning it off, wiping it off, and giving it a minute to cool off was enough to having it back to working just fine. The main thing I try to avoid doing with it is using it while it's extended, because most of it's weight is in the part extending out, and that can feel flimsy if you're just holding the handle to try and use it at full extension. The price seems to still be right around 13 bucks, so the fact that it can feel a little cheap sometimes is what you get when you pay that little for an electric razor. However, this thing has already outlasted electric toothbrushes that I've paid similar prices for. So it's cheap but good, and I hope it keeps lasting.

This eats batteries and is still to short.
By Jeromeo on Reviewed in the United States on February 11, 2022
The price on Amazon seemed too good to be true! After doing a short quick trim on my arms the day I got this, I was convinced I needed to buy one for the manscaping men in my life. I made another order and bought 3 of the same product. I have given them both away already and I have not heard any complaints from them… On my second use I was not able to finish shaving my head and face. It was pulling hairs on my scalp and face. Then it died. I thought it was the off name batteries that came with it so as to not seem ungrateful I delayed my review and finished the job with my Wahl trimmer. This week with fresh batteries, I was intended to trim my head, shoulders, back and chest… the fresh and batteries died just before I finished my full back and I didn’t get to my chest yet. I changed the batteries again and trimmed my chest. The trimmer is starting to pull hair within 3 minutes of use. That is disappointing. The 40mm of extension seems almost pointless… it was clearly designed for short fit men. I still needed a friend to help me get the very center of my back. My suggestion to improve this product is to extend the handle 1-2 more battery lengths! That way you get to double or triple the trimming power while making a tool that has more length to reach the areas that are hard to get to. Oh end maybe add an off switch for the light and ad a few more on both sides of the trimmer… I think I should return this unless I’m able to exchange it for one with more battery power.
