Just Okay. Too Many Deficiencies
Unfortunately I have to agree with some of the more critical reviews of this product. I say unfortunately, because the vacuum actually works pretty good when the unit is new. But ask those people who rave on and on about this unit how well their trimmer is working after a few months use and i bet you will get a totally different answer. The suction power substantially decreases after a few months of use it and it drops clumps of hair every where. And this is despite cleaning the unit thoroughly after each use.<br /><br />There are just too many other problems with this trimmer to recommend it. Most namely, it keeps breaking. I'm on my fifth unit in 3 years. Luckily it does have a 2 year warranty and Philips/Norelco has been terrific at replacing them. But, still, this continually breaking is a problem. I think this is mostly due to the cheap plastic build.<br /><br />I also agree with another review in regards to the ON/OFF and Turbo buttons being in a bad location. Because these buttons are where the fingers naturally sit to hold the trimmer I'm constantly, unintentionally, turning the trimmer off. This is very annoying. And I too have had the unit change to a shorter setting during use. Also very annoying.
