Title: What Trimmer Are You Using?
Post by: malegroomings on August 07, 2015, 12:30:06 PM
Hey guys,

I want to see what trimmers most of you guys are using and what you think/like/dislike about it! Let's get a nice thread going!

Currently, I use the Philips Norelco BT9285 and I love it. The laser is great for detailing your cheek and neck line, but it does take some getting used to. It cut's really well compared to other razors and it does not tug at all.

What about the rest of you?

I don't usually trim my beard often (once a month) but when I do, I use the Andis T-Outliner. It does a nice job on the neck and cheek line, and it's excellent on my head during periods I can't wet shave.

I normally do not keep a beard, but sometimes during vacation I grow a small one. I have a small Panasonic trimmer, which is perfect for beard and any other body areas you might need.

In 1999 I decided to buy good clippers so that I could maintain a buzzcut on my own, but a few months after buying it I started razor shaving my head.  I continued using it to (over)trim my goatee but then I upgraded to a terminal length goatee and then eventually upgraded to a beard. It is really only used to trim the stache and that back part of the beard that wants to connect to the back of my shaved scalp but it has lasted me 17 years without trouble.  It was Andis brand and does not use batteries (back then we plugged things into walls when using them lol)

I've got a Norelco QT4014 from the 3500 Series after sticking to a 4-year old Philips one for waaay too much. I'll test it out and probably jump to something more advanced in ~year or so. So far it's doing more than a fine job :)

If you want to stick with Philips, I suggest you check Philips Norelco SensoTouch (https://buyerscaptain.com/best-electric-shavers/). I've tested it and it's definitely one of the best electric shavers you can buy for about $200.
