    Not impressed at all

    Disappointed with this trimmer. Had it a couple weeks now, used it a handful of times. This thing does not cut through hair very well. It snags my beard on the 8mm setting, doesn't cut close when you take off the guard, definitely doesn't hold a charge for 3 hours, more like 30 mins maybe, and the charging station is almost useless if you have sideways outlets. I would order something else if given the chance. But I'm on Guam with no bestbuy for 5-6k miles, so I'll just deal with this til it annoys me to the point of tossing it and getting another. Just not worth it at all.

    Is a great machine it could be better I don't like the charging kit looks very fragile. The setting to change the style of beard u want was not that accurate I did a five and still shave my beard low u have to use it in a certain angle if u lay it flat in your face your going to shave your beard into a number one style.

      We sincerely apologize for the discomfort you have encountered with our product. To enhance your trimming experience, we kindly suggest the following guidelines: maintain the trimmer at the appropriate angle, ensure that the area is clean and dry. Gently stretch the skin while trimming, as this technique helps the hairs to stand up, facilitating a smoother and more effective cut. We appreciate your understanding and are committed to improving your experience. -C Panasonic

    The battery life is not the greatest. It’s to small for huge hands. You have to have your hair really short for it to shave you and not hurt.

    Missing an accessory & long battery charging time

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

    The trimmer is compact and light. However, it comes with only one accessory but also the battery charging time is too long(20hrs). You will never know it is fully charged or not because the charging Indicated light is always red NEVER turn to Green once you plug in it.

      Thank you for your review.The charge indicator lamp continues to glow after charging is complete. There is no indication to show that charging is complete.
      The charging time should be
      120 V~ Approx. 15 hours
      110 V~ Approx. 20 hours Panasonic

    Avoid this Trimmer

    Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    As others have noted, the blades pull at your hair and create an uncomfortable shave. Charger is awkward as it forced you to mount your shaver to an outlet when charging. BestBuy indicated that it comes with a travel pouch. It does not. I had a Norelco for years that was far superior to this.

    It more tore my beard out than cut it. Worst trimmer ever. I couldn’t even finish trimming before it ran out of a full charge. I was left with a half trimmed beard and ended up having to shave it all off with a disposable razor. Do not buy!

    This beard trimmer is actually awful. It doesn’t cut evenly AT ALL. I can’t even express how frustrating this thing is. I’ve tried everything and it still fails to trim my beard evenly. DO NOT BUY. I’ve tried multiple trimmers and I figured this would be an upgrade over the $20 Phillips trimmer I used to have, but I was COMPLETELY WRONG.
