Be nice if it charged – Purchased recently, used about 5 times, battery ran out, went to re-charge will not work. Blue light just flashes and that's it. No confidence in taking it back, will be buying another product of which there are many. Show details

Excellent....but – This is a fantastic invention to be able to clip your own back hair. It works very well. Have been extremely happy with it. But motor has started cutting in and out and now it won't charge at all. So really disappointed. It was about $150.00 so was expecting quality, especially from a company like Remington.

Disappointed, considering the price. There must be better options – This shaver cuts well and the "reach arm" is good, but the motor started badly cutting in and out after only a few months of very little use!! Boo! Yes, I made sure it was clean and charged. Maybe I just got a dud. I only recently remembered that I have a 2-year warranty, so I might be just in time to replace it; if I do, I'll write a follow-up review about the new one Show details

Does a great job – This does a very good job and is quick and easy. I've previously used the BakBlade, which is also very good. But I like this better. It still takes around the same amount of time, but I get far less nicks and it EASILY shaves the private bits! Rated it 4 stars as I still had a couple of very small nicks. And the handle, while definitely… Read more

great, isn't quite long enough for a tall guy, so it's not perfect (I would have rated 4.5 if possible).

I have an average (I guess?) amount of body hair on chest, stomach and back. My hair is average, so not really thick. It cuts through everything fine. A few passes are needed - but generally 2 passes gets it all.

I don't use the trim guides - just the blade straight on the skin. It gets the cut very close - almost as good as the BakBlade (which is a razor). The only nicks I got were on a few skin tags, but very minor and only in tricky places like armpits and base of the neck where the angle of the blade is more difficult to control. Didn't get any nicks on the wrinkly bits down south - although I still pulled the skin as tight as possible, it felt very safe to use and didn't really take much extra care.

I should also say that I shave dry - not on wet skin or under water (just like BakBlade). No shave cream. It works fine and there's no shaving burn. Shaving dry means hairs stand up and don't stick to the skin or blade.

And when using the handle make sure you hear it click in. It's a fairly solid click. If not, it WILL wiggle it's way out of the holder without noticing! I just managed to see it happen before it fell out.

Reading the negative reviews here and on Shaver Shop website is a bit concerning. Hoping those issues don't occur and this thing lasts. If it lasts, it's a very good investment.

Talk about false advertising Absolute waste of $149.95 – Doesn’t work at all with attachments. Worked okay (not great) the first three or four times without the attachments on but now just pulls and catches the hairs. I have tried cleaning it. Oiling it. As far as I’m concerned Remington and shaver shop should be doing a recall on these. A real Bunky product for such a high end price.  Show details

Waste of time and money – It didn't last more than 6. The motor was working but it doesn't shave at all, the blade is not replaceable and the two year guarantee doesn't include the blade. So, I have to throw it away.  Show details

Does not really deliver on performance as advertised – I have had this trimmer now for over 6 months and at first it was ok then it kept pulling my hair each time I used it without any attachments on it. I worked out that it only worked in the shower as it seems to require permanent running water to operate. It does not work very well dry at all as the blades heat up and seem to stick. I have… Read more

attempted to oil the blades to no avail. I love the extendable handle, but don't press too hard as the shaver will fall out of the handle and if it hits the hard tiles you will render it useless. It is more expensive than many other groomers, but unfortunately does not live up to the advertised hype.

A great invention – This body shaver is unreal. It comes with an extension handle that pulls out so you can reach down your back. Can be used with or without it as it clicks in to the handle.It is rechargeable. Love it
