Super trimmer

Just good gear for mens grooming very happy with the product and the price.

This trimmer has the other ones I tried beat hands down. From ease of use to charging to cleaning. Moderate price. I just love Panasonic products and have used there shavers for years. I wear a beard and this unit is a perfect companion

My only worry is how long blade last as well as the plastic height adjustment and how long it will last

Beard Trimmer

GREAT...Easy to use, just set the distance I want and it works perfectly. Charged it couple weeks ago...used 5-6 times and still haven't had to charge it again. Easy to pull of the cover to get in close when needed to. Compared to my last, where I had...

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Buy This. Seriously.

Worth it at $50, ridiculously worth it at $35-$40.

Well priced ; Very solid build ; Adjustments are easy ; Wet/Dry and simple to clean ; I really can't say enough good things about this, but the short version is this - it performs and is built like a ~$150-$200 trimmer. I caught it on sale for $35 and...

Spacer style ; I wouldn't knock off an egg for it, but I do wish the spacer was shaped slightly differently. It gets difficult occasionally to get those few odd hairs in areas like the corners of your mouth and such. Thankfully it's easy and quick to...

Like it but where are the replacement blades?

" After a year or so of use it starts cutting rough. I need a new glad attachment. They used to be sold here but no more. And they're impossible to find anywhere else. So if you buy this know that you'll need to buy on every year or so unless they make...

Excellent Trimmer

" What was I thinking? I bought a cheaper, no name trimmer on Groupon and I got what I paid for. I then ordered this Panasonic to make up for my mistake and it is perfect: stylish, very quiet, easy to use, trims well -- and barely more expensive than...
