    Best trimmer I've used thus far. I love the part of not hunting and changing different parts out. The adjustable length and "comb" is all you need. Very smooth. Be sure to read the instructions! Adjustable beard trimming length allows for a rather long beard is so desired. I would have given it 5 stars however the charger is a bit weird. No cord so must be plugged directly into socket and razor sits in charger. Don't really like having a huge mess sitting on the wall and would rather position the charger and razor where I want versus it all stuck on the wall. . Additionally the charging light remains red when razor is in charger. Does not change colors like to green etc when it's fully charged so it's a guessing game. Despite this I highly recommend this razor as it does as advertised an does it very well. *Cord in pic goes to something else plugged in below the razor...

    The shaver is pretty straightforward. The beard trimming length is adjustable and you can take it off if you want to a cool shave. You charge it by connecting to the base and plugging it into the wall. It Gets the job done for me.

    It works good. The reason I gave it 2 stars is because the adjustable guard broke and it has become unusable.

    Stupidest cost cutting I've ever seen!!! Can't even include a cord for the charging base (as it is pictured with a cord) - they think you can just plug this in straight into a plug? Good luck! The GFCI outlet in my bathroom is older and does not support the weight of this at all -- falls out. Why is it that photos and the actual product do not add up anymore? Bought this on sale and used a $5 reward certificate - so I kind of feel like I got what I paid for. I'd really be livid if I had paid full price. Wasted time and trip to purchase. More wasted time and another trip to return. OMG.

    I like this so much, that I've purchased three of them from Best Buy. It even comes with a wall charger, cleaning brush and machine oil. Lots of micro adjustment options with the onboard dial. Don't have to worry about storing and changing out any comb length attachments. The charge lasts a long time. Never have any issues with it pulling hairs, like other brands I've had in the past. Light weight and very easy to use.

    I had a cheap beard trimmer, and it was driving me nuts. It did not feel good in the hand, nor on the face, and was hard to turn on and off. I got this trimmer, and it is SO much nicer to use. It feels great in the hand, works great, I love the easy length adjustment and not having to keep any additional trim guards, The on off switch is very easy. I like the charger with no cords, and it fits on my outlet just fine. When it is charging I cannot close the medicine cabinet door because of plug location, but it needs to be charged pretty rarely, so that is not a big deal for me. Not having a cord means I can keep the charger in the medicine cabinet, as opposed to in the drawer. When I put my old one with the cord in the drawer, it was a pain to find again, as the drawer was pretty big and filled with crap. I don’t actually take it in the shower or get it wet, so I cannot comment on that. Overall, feels like a quality tool, balanced in the hand… to the point I look forward to using it.

    I had gone many moons without a trimmer. My trimmer broke and I was heartbroken. It had a adjustable length like this one. I thought I would never have one as great as it, but then I got this. It was perfect. The adjustments so precise, the sound so quiet I could hear the police banging on my door. It has a recharable battery too with a base station, so no wires. After waiting 5 impatient days with a detoriating beard it came. I used it. After that was all W Rizz. Listen boys, you gotta get this.

    Bought at the end of Nov 21 and since that time have used three times. Razor works fine, runs quietly and only charged once and is still working without charging. Quick adjustment for thinning beard and seems pretty sturdy. Used to have a Phillips similar to this model which they quit making. Only thing different this model has no vacuum but like i stated works great, would recommend.

    Best Trimmer I've Ever Used

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    After years of using $10 - $15 budget trimmers that die after a few months of use, I finally spent a few more dollars to get this and am thrilled with it. It works absolutely flawlessly, both wet and dry. Its powerful, quick and quiet. You do need to lubricate the blade with three drops of oil before every use, but this literally takes a few seconds and the amount of oil supplied in the box will literally last for months, if not a year or two. The only issue I could see some people having with this is that the blade guard seems to accommodate mostly shorter beard lengths, so if you have longer facial hair you may want to look elsewhere as I believe Panasonic does not make a bigger guard for this model. But for average / short trims this is perfect. Highly recommended.
