Review (4/5): Excellent Shaver, a Few Minor Criticisms
There are a ton of reviews here, so no need to go into great detail about what everyone else mentions, but I'll summarize anyway. It works very well, the battery life between charges is very good, it looks nice, and as many others write, it does a great job at vacuuming up trimmed hairs, even if a few escape.
My criticisms are:
1. I wish the case that came with it were more compact, even form fitting. The one I received was basically a small pouch with a flap that seems almost like an afterthought design-wise.
2. The power on button went off many times when traveling, due to the fairly sensitive button being flush with the shaver. This could be prevented if the button was recessed and/or there was a lock switch to lock the trimmer off completely when traveling. A few times, it accidentally turned on and started buzzing in my suitcase and caused a few stares, and even a few chuckles, if you know what I mean. A form-fitting case that has a space around the button would also help.
3. I agree with other reviewers: I wish this was designed so that the mini-trimmer attachment was on the other side of the head, so that there are no attachments at all. Perhaps this could be re-designed so that a simple switch (like on a reversible screwdriver) could switch back and forth between the beard trimmer and the mini attachment.
All in all, I am very happy with this trimmer, but would purchase another one if they addressed the previously mentioned issues.
