Philips Multigroom Series 5000 All-In-One Rechargeable Cordless Hair Trimmer, 19-pc

Cet article n'était pas pour moi mais pour mon neveu comme cadeau à Noël. Sa barbe était comme quelqu'un qui revient de la chasse après deux longues semaines passées dans la forêt. Il était vraiment heureux de ce cadeau et là utilisé immédiatement. Il était bien satisfait de son rasage et taillage de sa barbe avec ce modèle de rasoir-tailleur.

Decent features, worth 35/40$. Don't buy if more than that

I needed a new compact trimmer come shaver and this Philips brand I do like. There are many choices out there but the guarantee and build quality is really good. Now that I have owned it for a few months it is really good and I will tell you why. Holds the charge for ages, really close clipper shave which I like, compact and the on off button is affirmingly positive. I made a little pouch to keep it safe and clean. I also like to oil the busy blades from time to time and you can hear the difference when you do that. It is water proof but I dont take it in the shower, I want it to last a long time. So really impressed over all.

I bought this for a gift for my husband

As usual, I like Philips products, and search them out when I need a replacement health appliance. Regarding my new to me Series 5000 trimmer, after using it for the past couple of months, I have several comments. First, the good: the cutting heads do a very good job, with little or no pulling, and fit on the handle securely. Handle is light-weight, and easy to use. Now, the less than good: the power button is in the most awkward location, at least for me, in that my thumb sits directly on the button when I am using the appliance in the most efficient manner, and, consequently, I turn the instrument off numerous times during the trim operation. Lots of alternate places to place the button, but there you are. Second issue is the trimmer guide sizes. The shortest guide cuts too short, and the next size up cuts too long. Appears to be a 5mm spacing between these two guides. Where is the guide sized in between? Likely will not return the item, as I did get it on sale, and maybe I'll make a new hobby of adapting myself to the handle configuration, or just go buy a Wahl.
