In general this is a very good beard trimmer. The box is very well presented, nice enough to give as a gift, and comes with everything you need - a USB charger, a storage bag, a cleaning brush and plenty of different heads so there will almost certainly be a head to suit your desired length.In terms of getting started the trimmer charges very quickly and seems to hold the charge well for a good amount of time. The heads are easy to remove and replace and the self sharpening blades mean the trimmer cuts well and will not require much maintenance. The functions are simple and to the point and it is easy to operate.

This doesn't tend to be so noticeable if you trim regularly so the hair is shorter so it wouldn't put me off using the product in future or recommending it.

The small profile and weight of the trimmer means that it easily fits into a toiletries bag. My other trimmer is much larger and takes up too much space when I am travelling.The USB charging is also very useful as I can charge the Phillips Series 1000 from my laptop! perfect for when on a train or plane.the head is on the small side which make it great for tidying up but do not expect it to cut a head of hair.I find the on switch a bit sticky, it could be a smoother movement but this is not something that makes the product difficult to use.

Performance:After charging the trimmer for the first time it lasted me well over a week with no dip in performance as the battery ran out. I only used the 3mm setting as this is what I prefer, but it performed much better than expected ensuring my stubble was even over my entire face. I have found with some trimmers that often the area just below the nose is difficult to get to but that wasn't the case here.Ease of use:Not much to comment on here other than you slide the switch up to turn it on, a very simple process! However, even changing over the combs was simple, just click them into place then when done just pop them off.Design:I rather liked the design of this trimmer, it's not anything spectacular to look at but I personally wouldn't want it to be. ... MorePerformance:After charging the trimmer for the first time it lasted me well over a week with no dip in performance as the battery ran out.

One aspect of the design which I'm yet to test however is the 'self sharpening' blades as I've only had it a week but if they work then this is a big plus as I have found some trimmers to dull over time.Overall I would definately reccomend this to anyone who wants to keep their beard or stubble in check and would advise them not to be put off by its bland appearance.

I am really impressed with this beard trimmer. The set up was simple and easy. The trimmer itself is small and lightweight and is ideal for travel. I was able to quickly choose a trimming length and there are a reasonable selection to choose from. The USB charging makes it super simple to keep the charge topped up on the device too.Some trimmers I have used in the past aren't very precise and you find yourself having to go back over areas with greater detail. This trimmer provides a great trim from the start and I have noticed the difference compared to previous models from other brands.It is east to take apart to clean and I envisage this lasting for a long time. This is definitely a model that I would recommend.
This product is excellent at what it does, and for a price that you cannot argue with.Its performance as a trimmer is unquestionable. It works perfectly and effortlessly, with absolutely no discomfort. It holds its charge very well and the usb charger is extremely convenient.It comes with a large variety of attachments. Though it would be easier to have a single attachment for all lengths changing the attachments is surprisingly quick and easy.I personally prefer wet and dry shavers as I like to rinse it off when I am finished, which is one of very few improvements I would suggest.Overall, this is more than enough of a trimmer to handle regular trimming and would definitely recommend to anyone looking for value for money
Having used the trimmer for a few months, I am generally happy. It is still as sharp as it was at the beginning, and the battery life is more than sufficient.The power switch and the height adjuster thing are both on the front, within reach of the thumb, making it nice and easy to change the settings without breaking your trimming stride.The USB charging cable is an unnecessary novelty to me, but i can see why it may be useful for travellers etc.Only negative, the height adjuster is a bit clunky, and makes the trimmer feel a bit cheap.In all, I am pleased with the product.
Great beard trimmer. I found this trimmed around the countours of the face really well.The different settings were great for styling down the face and the neck, and they were all easy to use.Nice looking product and the battery lasted for ages as well without needing to be replugged in.Overall, highly recommended as a basic product.Only negative is that it is not possible to fit all the pieces and the trimmer in the bag, so only thing to improve would be to make the bag a little bigger to allow you to take all the pieces away with you when travelling.
Why only 3 stars? Quality of shave compared to my old Phillips one beard trimmer! It has some massive plus points like usb charging and no expensive head that needs changing frequently. Unfortunately the thing that lets it down is the closeness and comfort of shave fall far short of what I expect from a beard trimmer. Excellent for travel and will probably end up being just for that!
Now finally having used the shaver enough to comment, I'd recommend this little thing to anybody who loves a stubble beard or longer.What can I say this thing shaves close for an electric shaver to a point where I can decide not to wet shave after, It is smooth across the skin and precise enough not to purchase another device for shaping.I love the design the shape and colour and its is very light in the hand, I also love the fact I can charge it with a USB meaning I can use existing infrastructure, however there is a cable provided but no plug :(The extra combs that come with this product offer a varied cut for shorter and longer lengths its quite easy to find the length required.My only qualm I had with this was that the power button was abit stiff to a ... MoreNow finally having used the shaver enough to comment, I'd recommend this little thing to anybody who loves a stubble beard or longer.What can I say this thing shaves close for an electric shaver to a point where I can decide not to wet shave after, It is smooth across the skin and precise enough not to purchase another device for shaping.I love the design the shape and colour and its is very light in the hand, I also love the fact I can charge it with a USB meaning I can use existing infrastructure, however there is a cable provided but no plug :(The extra combs that come with this product offer a varied cut for shorter and longer lengths its quite easy to find the length required.My only qualm I had with this was that the power button was abit stiff to a point where id need to
This beard trimmer is very lightweight and comes with its own handy little pouch which makes it ideal for traveling or even if your short of space.The beard trimmer attachments are really handy to clip in and switch over however they can't all be stored away in the pouch provided which is a little disappointing.The USB lead is very clever as a lot of places now have USB sockets on the plug covers so you don't need to carry around a seperate bulky plug, plus you can charge it up anywhere.The actual trimming, even on its longest trimmer clip, cuts a little too short for my husbands liking. It would have taken his beard quite short and Close to the skin if he'd carried on using it
