Upon opening my new trimmer, it seems that it's the new version of a trusty trimmer that i've had for a few years that worked quite well. Starting off, the box of this trimmer was a pain to open and already torn. I hate shoddy packaging, Norelco should learn something from Apple and Sonos and come up with more attractive packaging. The trimmer itself feels very sturdy and has some weight to it, a definite upgrade over my old one. I love that it has a dial to change the settings on the comb and a power button instead of a switch. All of this seems very sturdy. The attachment trimming comb does not feel sturdy at all. It attached to the trimmer with the 2 arms going into holes. It does not feel like it totally attached as there is some rattling from side to side. My real gripe with this trimmer is the noise that it makes when going beyond the "0" setting. The comb really rattles from the vibration of the trimmer and it is pretty loud for a little device. It's annoying and could easily be fixed if the comb would just fit better. The trimming aspect is excellent. It does a great job of providing an even trim all around. The dial makes it really easy to do some fades around the edges. The trimmer is easier to use, holds a charge and gets the job done, just the packaging and comb feel cheap. Fix that rattling of the comb on the next model and you have a pretty perfect trimmer.

If you're looking for a rather basic cordless beard trimmer then the Philips Norelco - 3000 will essentially get the job done for you. This is really a no-frills kind of trimmer and as long as your expectations are in line for what this trimmer is then you'll be happy. Some of the pros for this trimmer are the quality of the blades, how fast it charges from empty to usable, does an excellent job at trimming your facial hair, and it can serve as a handy night light while charging thanks to the incredibly bright green LED that indicates charging. Some of the cons are mediocre build quality, the selector for determining trim length is a bit loose, and no attachments. This trimmer is replacing another Phillips Norelco trimmer that I had been using for six years so I'm a believer in the brand. If you keep your expectations in line for a trimmer in this price range then you'll be content with purchasing and using this one.

This beard trimmer has a max setting of 10mm which is too short for those that have medium-long or long beards. For everyone else who is growing a beard at a max length of 10mm I would highly recommend this trimmer. The rubberized ergonomic design of the trimmer DOES make a difference, comfort wise, when handling. This is now my go-to beard trimmer.

Very nice trimmer, the adjustable blades is an awesome feature and makes trimming a beard easy. The selector dial is very useful and has a sturdy design. It's a nice compact design that delivers great results. It has a nice non slip feel as well.

Having owned a good number of beard trimmers over the years, I can honestly say I really like this one. Feels good in your hand and is a decent size. I really like the dial style length adjuster. Also, it charges fast and seems to hold its charge for a long time.

Excellent. An improvement on an earlier model I have that still works well but is just not as good as this. Easy to adjust and clean.

I really enjoy using this beard trimmer. I like the different length settings that are built in the comb. I like using this for quick beard touch-ups when I'm in the go.

Not bad for the money. It could use a little more power when cutting through thicker beards. Overall its definitely worth the cost of this unit. Good brand also!

The shaver does not cut any facial hair at all. As far as I am concerned I just wasted a bunch of money on this junk
