Customers often highlight the ease of use and the variety of attachments that come with the Nose Trimmer. They appreciate the good quality and affordable price of the product. The multi-purpose functionality and the fact that it is washable are also mentioned as positive aspects. However, some customers have expressed concerns about the effectiveness of the trimmer in removing nose hair.
I buy a new nose hair trimmer when they either break, or simply stop performing. This time, I gave the Philips Norelco a try. The cost is 1/4th the cost of the last nose trimmer I bought, which broke after a year. I was concerned about the durability because it is bargain priced. Turns out, there was no need for concern. I have been blown away so far. Most important: It trims nose hair much more successfully than any previous unit I owned. Simply rotate it within each nostril. The sound of it destroying hairs is amazing. When the sound dies down, it is finished. look at your nose. You won't believe how great this trimmer works! The attachments are for nose trimming, eyebrow trimming, mustache grooming & ear hair removal. They even included a carry pouch, a clean-up brush & instructions with many photos showing how to use each attachment. The included AA battery is a Top-Of-The-Line Lithium Battery. It provides substantially more power & longer life than an AA Alkaline battery. Philips Norelco spared no expense on this battery. Attractively designed in black & silver, this trimmer compliments virtually every electric razor & looks at home in the Master Bath, or in your travel case. The instructions show how easy it is to clean, by simply holding it under a faucet or by inserting it in a cup of water. I enthusiastically recommend this Philips Norelco Nose Trimmer! It easily earns 5 Stars for build quality, effectiveness & value.

A simple, comprehensive, feature-rich nose trimmer and so much more. Philips Norelco Nose Trimmer 5000 highlights include: • Powered by (included) long-lasting AA Lithium battery • Dual-sided nose trimmer does NOT pull sensitive nose hairs and cuts without having to go over the same area again and again • Fully washable under a faucet • Trimming kit includes linear trimmer for nose, ears, eyebrows (with two eyebrow guards) • Rotary trimmer for nose • Detail trimmer for sideburns (and around the ears) No mysteries here. This is simple to use and effective in its results. BETTER than competitive and older Philips Norelco models I have had in three ways. First, the old model was a single-sided nose trimmer that lacked precision and was not great at its primary objective. THIS model’s dual side head is considerably more effective, and a good trimmer with two guards for eyebrows. Each guard is calibrated for longer or shorter eyebrows. Second, the rotary trimmer head is often preferable for use in the nose. Third, this model adds value with its detail trimmer for sideburns, which is also useful for trimming hair around and over the ears. Lot of useful features for not a lot of money. At its low price point, that it is powered by a single expensive disposable AA Lithium instead of rechargeable internal battery is forgivable. I do not know just how long the included battery will last, but if experience is a good teacher, even with bi-weekly trims over the ears, and the usual, more occasional nose and eyebrow trims, I would guess that each battery would last for six months or more. With 20-year shelf life, a 4-pack of the best Energizer Ultimate Lithium batteries is about $8 at Best Buy. Do the math. Not bad at all. Covered by Philips Norelco two-year warranty.

Philips Trimmer This little trimmer is great and very versatile. I like that it has all kinds of attachments. My favorites are the rotary trimmer (trims the hair in your nose and ears) and the eyebrow combs (trims eyebrows nicely so there is no stray wiry hairs). The detailer is a nice touch also, so you can get rid of those hairs on the back of your neck or your sideburns. I like that it is cordless. I can take it from the bathroom to the bedroom, without having to unplug and plug back in to use. This comes with one AA battery, so you don’t even need to worry about anything and can use it right out of the box. It is ready to go. Comes with a brush to clean up the cut hairs that left behind and it is washable, so I can just run it under the sink tap and wash away any dirt and oil. I would recommend this trimmer to anyone that is looking for a product like this.
