A decent nose/ear trimmer but not the best
I've had the same nose/ear trimmer for a few years now that has served me incredibly well, but it is a bit bulky. That's the only negative I can say about it.<br /><br />So I saw this pop up and decided to give it a shot thanks to the slimmer design. It looks pretty cool, too, which hey why not.<br /><br />Couple things:<br /><br />1) It is definitely smaller, less bulky than my other unit. Lightweight, too.<br /><br />2) Battery holds up well. Have used it at least a dozen times and no issues yet.<br /><br />3) Cleans up well and easily.<br /><br />4) It is really quiet.<br /><br />5) Super easy to turn on with the soft button hidden away in the bottom of the unit.<br /><br />6) The cutter is easily removed for deep cleaning.<br /><br />But on the negative end...<br /><br />7) For some reason, the design of the cutter on this makes me have to use it for way longer than my other unit when trimming nose hairs. Like, much longer in order to get all the hairs, plus as many crazy angles as I can manage. It'll do the job, but it just doesn't grab the hairs as easily. Now there is one perk to that: I've yet to have any cuts inside my nose... my other unit will, every now and again, catch the skin and give me a little, tiny cut. Nothing that bleeds but yeah it hurts for a couple seconds. This unit? Never happened... so, its seemingly safer but requires a bit more time to get the job done.<br /><br />I'm not sure why other reviewers don't seem to like this one so much, but I haven't experienced any other negatives. It has yet to pull on any hairs (my other unit, however, sometimes does), and again, it totally gets the job done. I think it is priced very fairly for what it is (in the sub-$15 range), so I wouldn't hesitate picking one of these up.
