Customer Reviews

The Art of Compromise
The standard against which a multiple use product like this is to be measured is NOT whether it is the best performing product at each task, but rather whether it performs well enough to replace two or more items in your bathroom or more importantly in your carry on luggage. As a habitually clean-shaven man, I might seem a poor choice to review such a product, but a fortuitously timed job layoff has allowed me to grow a beard in order to fully test the device.

BATTERY: This is the major selling point; I fully charged it when I received it and have been using it off and on over the last two months ON THE VERY FIRST CHARGE, and it is still going strong! There is no other rechargeable battery technology I'm aware of that could even approach, much less match that performance.

SHAVER HEAD: As a blade shaver whose weapon of choice is the Gillette Fusion Power Phenom Razor, I have always believed that electric razors are for men who don't really insist on a close shave (or less facetiously for men whose lifestyle requires shaving on-the-go). Nothing about the performance of this trimmer's shaver head has changed my mind, and for shaving the entire face it is clearly inferior to the Braun Series 1 1-150 Men's Shaver I have also been testing. However, in fairness, it was never really intended for this purpose. No man in his right mind would choose such a product unless he was planning to at least experiment with facial hair, and for the purpose of shaving those parts of your face not covered by your beard or mustache, it is quite adequate.

DETAIL HEAD: For delicate work, like separating that unibrow into two separate eyebrows, the detail head works fine, though perhaps because of the small size of its face plate, it becomes uncomfortably warm during sustained use. However, as a nose hair or ear hair trimmer, it is clearly inferior to any with rotary heads.

TRIMMER HEAD: The main trimmer head comes with far too many attachments IMHO, and I don't say that just because in mine all of the plastic attachments displayed in the box window were duplicated inside. Unless you are planning a career as a traveling beard stylist, a six-position trimmer guide and 3 fixed-length attachment combs is probably going to be more than you will ever need. However, experimentation will be required in order to narrow down your choices. The adjustable trimmer guide provides more choices without switching attachments, but it is susceptible to slipping under pressure, resulting in a closer trim than you intended. For body hair trimming, this device is clearly inferior to the Philips Norelco BG2020 Bodygroom Shaver, Philips Norelco Body Groomer Limited Edition BG2022, and probably to the Philips Norelco BG2030 Professional BodyGrooming System as well, in everything except battery, but unless you are a performer in the adult film industry, it will probably do an adequate job, especially if you have someone who can assist you with the underbrush thinning.

Note: Unless you plan on regularly maintaining yourself in that condition, it is not advisable to shave yourself too closely between the waist and the knees. Two words -- "razor stubble" -- in close contact with your most tender areas should be explanation enough.

T-BLADE HEAD: Unless you develop the habit of using it to trim your beard or are still maintaining that boot camp 'doo, this will probably be the least useful blade unless you have a partner with some haircutting skills because while any idiot can eventually learn to trim his own beard, cutting your own hair in a manner you'd be willing to display in public is probably going to be beyond your abilities. However, Wahl made its name in hair clippers and could hardly be expected to leave one out of an all-in-one trimmer.

Defects? The lack of a carrying case is particularly felt with such a large number of attachments, and a vacuum feature to capture hair clippings would be a nice-to-have. In addition the handle has the ergonomics of a flashlight, but these are minor points.

In summation for a bearded or mustachioed man on the go this device CAN adequately replace everything it claims to replace with the exception of a nose hair trimmer.

The best Wahl Trimmer.
This is the best wahl trimmer you can buy to trim your body hair. I bought this one from Amazon on November 9 and I tried it on today December 12. I can tell you that I was blown away about how this trimmer works. It's a very soft,smooth and gentle cut.You don't have to go over the same place you've already shaved.I`m very hairy in the chest and back. I have 2 wahl 9953 body trimmers that I use to trim my chest and back because one of them usually runs out of battery while trimming but this one worked for 20 minutes without any battery problem and I didn't even charge it,i just opened it and started using it. I have had other wahl clippers and trimmers for several years but this one is a really exceptional one. I hope that everyone that is looking to buy a body trimmer takes my advice and buys this one. By the way I have bought hundreds of good product from Amazon over the years and I think this is only the fourth review I write because while I was trimming my hair I said to myself this is an excellent product I have to write a great review about it.

Bearded Man
This is a mediocre trimmer, packaged like a generic role of paper towels. My biggest beef is that it doesn't cut very close to the edge. Also, none of the plastic beard trimming attachments allow for a close beard trim. Wahl is a good name in the industry, but this one misses the boat.
