Best Philips Personal Health Men's Hair Trimmers / Personal Groomers

Easy as – After tripping over one of my nostril hairs and growing sideburns out of my ears I decided to attempt to groom myself back to civility. This was $50,… Read more

slightly more expensive than the rest on sale but I got this because it washes under a tap, requires only one battery and doesn't pull your hair out of its roots. Quiet and easy to use. My neighbour's dog no longer growls at me and I've finally stopped howling.

Does the job, nothing special – Got it from Shavershop. Takes many swipes to cut any longer hair Good for body hair and private part hair Takes very long (6-7 hrs) to fully charge… Read more

as it is Nickel Cadmium battery Runs for about 50 mins which is enough time for me It is comfortable to use but it is not a close shave I usually take off the body comb accessory for a closer cut The trimmer blade clogs quickly, it requires frequent cleaning

When I bought this trimmer, I had already purchased a few prior to it but never happy with what I purchased. This MG7950/15 model I bought is better… Read more

than all the others I tried, but still not good enough to match my previous trimmer that broke down after about 15 years of heavy use. I used to have a Wahl and the battery still remains strong today but the power button disintegrated so I needed to replace the unit. This Philips model comes well packed. There are plenty of accessories but I do not use any of them. The unit is light to hold. It charges quickly but you do have to supply your own USB power supply. Not an issue as I have plenty laying around. In use, the trimmer is quiet and easy to hold. It is comfortable without weight. I do not like the placement of the power button. It is on the underside so I often accidentally switch it off with my hand palm or base of my fingers while using it. I do not use any accessories or other sized combs. I only use the bare trimmer for the closest trim possible. The blades are sharp and I don't have to go over the same area as much as I did with a few previous trimmers I tried. There are no nicks of the skin on large area but in private regions, it can nick quite easy and draw a little blood. I have never come across a trimmer that doesn't nick in those regions. The battery charges quick and lasts a long time. To do a full body trim of every skin part from head to toe, the trimmer may have had about 60-70% left so I could probably do 3 sessions on each charge I would presume. The battery indicator on the underside is a bit of a let down. It is only one LED that changes colour. I would like a multi LED to give a better indication of where the battery level is (in 25% increments as other trimmers have) or a digital display would be better. I decided to keep this trimmer as it trimmed closer to the skin than many others did and I didn't have to go over the same area multiple times. The trimmer does not trim as close as the old Wahl does so on my face, I still use the Wahl which is still useable (I just have to use a pen to reach the power button that is under the disintegrated sheath that covered it). If I were to replace this, I can not afford a Wahl which would be my first choice. I would get another Philips if my undesirables listed were addressed.
