Review (1/5): Flex comb is a joke, Charger is a brick that won't stay in the wall
Bought this to replace my Norelco T-1000 (then found out I could have bought a replacement battery for 10 bucks)which worked just fine until the battery died. The decision to buy was mostly impluse, though I did check Amazon's ratings, but I forgot to read the lowest ratings first!
I keep a close cut beard or stubble, so I don't need the adjustable settings above maybe # 3 ...
I also don't care about having a vacuum cause I trim over the sink and just rinse it out. Seems like they concentrate on that feature more than the basic design. Not impressed.
The "contour" spring loaded thing is a joke, I removed it. The charger unit is so bulky and heavy that it will not hang on the wall socket. I have to use an extension cord from the wall and set the "brick" charger on the counter.
Did not like the feel of the unit right out of the box either, it feels rather cheap (which it is), unlike my old unit. It's fairly large and and bulky, like the charger!
Don't know what the blue plastic floating shield thing is in front of the cutters, but it makes hard to judge depth when trimming without the adjustable guide on.
I'll use it for the time being, then donate it to the thrift store when I find a better unit. Not worried about paying forty bucks, as I can afford to toss away cash at the this moment. Got free shipping too, unlike Ebay sellers that are charging 20 bucks to ship!
