Title: An amazing trimmer for little money.
Review: Why I Need This: I’ve been shaving with Norelco electric razors for years. And while I like the way they shave, their built-in pop-up trimmer leaves something to be desired. I don’t have a beard. But I do have a mustache and sideburns that need to be trimmed.It’s not that that Norelco’s pop-up trimmer doesn’t work. But in order to get the desired results, I have to keep going over the same area multiple times. I thought to myself, if only I could find an inexpensive trimmer that would do the job quickly and easily. Tada! Wahl to the rescue!The Performance: All I can say is wow. For fifteen bucks this little trimmer is amazing. I was all set to buy something a lot more expensive. I’m glad I didn’t. First of all, I don’t need or want a trimmer for hair in my nose and ears (I prefer scissors and tweezers for that). Secondly, I have no use for a dozen different attachments to trim the hair on my head (my barber would kill me). And thirdly, I’m not the sort of guy who likes to manscape my manly parts, or even think of shaving off my treasure trail (look it up if I lost you).The Cutting Mechanism: Surprisingly for the money, the blade mechanism on this trimmer is not a flimsy piece of stamped metal. The base plate is thick, and it’s “precision ground” per Wahl. I believe it. And unlike the crappy trimmer on my Norelco razor, this trimmer contains a lot of closely spaced teeth. The end result is that I can set the length of my sideburns and trim my mustache in about 1/3 the time.Power Requirements: This trimmer does not work or come with a cord. Nor does it have a built-in rechargeable battery. Nor does it come with any batteries at all. It uses two (2) AA batteries that you’ll have to supply yourself. You can power it using regular alkaline batteries. But I already have a battery charger and a bunch of rechargeable AA batteries, so that’s what I use.Warranty: The warranty on this trimmer is three years. But considering the cheap price, it may not even be worth the cost of postage to return it to Wahl if it quits working.Maintenance: This trimmer is not waterproof. Don’t use it in the shower, or use water to clean it. Use the included brush to brush away unwanted hairs in the cutting mechanism. Wahl includes a little bottle of oil. You’re supposed to apply a few drops to the cutting mechanism every month.Country of Origin: Unlike some Wahl products that were made in the USA, this trimmer was made in Vietnam.Closing Comments: It’s inexpensive, and it works very well for my needs. I didn’t mention it earlier, but the shape of this trimmer is easy to hold. I’m very pleased with this product.

Title: Wonderful beard trimmer for even better price!!!
Review: So I read a lot of the reviews before I bought this beard trimmer, and I want to address some of the complaints:-Yes, the packaging was hard to get into. But…I’m grateful it was thick and rigid because it was shipping in one of the Amazon bags, and if not for the hard plastic clamshell packaging, the thing would have gotten smashed. Just use a sharp knife/pair of scissors and you’ll be fine.-Yes, the trimmer is “loud”. But I’m not sure what anyone else was expecting from a $15 trimmer. It’s not deafeningly loud-nothing more than you would hear at your local barber shop.-Yes, it’s not fancy or has a bunch of different settings or all the bells and whistles. However, it’s a $15 trimmer, and it sure as heck gets the job done.Admittingly, I have only used it once so far since I got it. But it ran like a champ, cut my unwanted facial hair down closer than my big Wahl clippers ever did, and was comfortable on my face without a guard. I give a 10/10, would recommend.

Title: Great for thinner/light hair.
Review: Let’s face it – grooming can be a hassle. That’s why finding the right tool for the job is so important. And while this groomer is pretty great overall, there are a few things you should know before you buy.First off, the design is sleek and ergonomic, making it easy to hold and maneuver. And the blades are sharp and precise, which is great for getting those hard-to-reach areas. Plus, it’s easy to clean and maintain, which is always a bonus.However, the one downside is that it could use a bit more power. I have light facial hair, so it’s not an issue for me, but I can see how it might be a problem for someone with thicker hair. So if you’re someone who needs a lot of power to get the job done, this might not be the groomer for you.That being said, if you have lighter facial hair or just need a basic groomer for touch-ups, this one is definitely worth considering. It’s affordable, reliable, and gets the job done. Just keep in mind that it might not be the best choice for those with thicker hair.

Title: Smart Buy
Review: Started growing goatee and didn’t want to spend a lot in case my facial hair was ruled ineligible or not worthy. Pleased to say it is now 14 months later and goatee looks great thanks to this trimmer. You can pay a lot more if you want but for my needs this had all the attachments required and works great.

Title: No Organizer / No Base / No Storage
Review: This trimmer has no base, no organizer, no storage capability – not even a bag. It appears that Wahl expects that everything will just get dumped on the countertop or crammed into a drawer. The trimmer comes with several accessories, but it has absolutely no means of storing them. I have purchased Wahl trimmers in the past, and every one of them has come with a base, with slots for storing accessories. Sadly, this new Wahl trimmer has no base. To make matters worse, it will not even fit into the base for my old Wahl trimmer (Which gave me good service for many years.). I called Wahl Customer Service, and I was informed that they are moving away from providing bases. It is not possible to even purchase a base separately. My guess is that another idiot executive got a promotion by making the Customer Experience just a bit more frustrating. The device itself seems to be of good quality. I especially like the fact that it uses standard AA batteries, rather than the fixed internal rechargeable type. Standard batteries are much easier to properly dispose of, so I find that to be a very positive point. Wahl has lost a Customer. In general, I have liked Wahl products over the years, and this trimmer is no exception. Unfortunately, in the future, I will not be buying from a manufacturer that ignores the basic realities of their Customer’s experience with their product. Although this trimmer works fine, I am looking for a replacement with a proper base/storage.
