Review (4/5): The trimmer that looks like a light sabre
I'd been wanting a trimmer with a vacuum option on it, so when I was buying some other new trimmers and shavers, I decided to get this one too. I have to say in some ways I don't like it as much as the plain Norelco trimmer it replaced, but I'll give it 4 stars because the main reason I bought this, for the vacuum, works very well. Didn't even use the turbo option, the counter-top looks a lot cleaner after a shave now. The back of the trimmer guide looks odd, but it works fine. My biggest knock is when you take the guide off. There's a sliding plastic panel that I guess is there to help direct hair into the vacuum, but it makes trimming without the guide a bit of a pain. I used to use my old trimmer to trim my mustache, but I'll probably use the trimmer on my shaver for that now, it's less work even though I have to reach for a second gadget. Using the trimmer without the guide though to try to shape the sides of my beard was a little bit of a hassle, though I've only used the trimmer once, so maybe with some experimentation it will get easier. Anyway, the vacuum part of it certainly works well.
