Usability
Pros:
"It's easy to carry and can be used easily and does the job pretty well."
"The pivoting head makes it easy to follow the contour of facial areas."
"The head is flexible and forms to any area of your skin."
"This product is very easy to use. I was able to get a lot of peach fuzz off as well as stiffer hair on chin area."
"It's quick and easy to use!"
"This is an easy trimmer to use when you need to trim up your eyebrows or around the lip area."
"So easy to use!! Gets rid of eyebrow hairs in between getting eyebrows waxed."
Cons:
"Parts very small and hard to handle for interchanging eyebrow to face hair blades... Not effective with coarse chin hair."
"The curved handle takes more room in my makeup travel bag."
"Attachments are difficult to take on and off."
"Make sure you put the right guard on this thing or you will shave your eyelashes off like I did."
"The bending mechanism on the trimmer doesn’t lock in place, so I have to use my index finger to hold it in place while trimming, burdensome."
"I could not get the eyebrow comb to fit over the blade to save my life!"
"I’m a little hesitant to get close to my eyebrow because of how well it cuts but I’ve yet to try the other attachments."
Battery and Power
Pros:
"This hair trimmer does exactly what it says it does. I've never had any issues with it, and the battery lasts a long time."
"I bought this from Amazon in 2007. I use it perhaps once or twice a month, and just changed the battery!"
"A single battery lasts a very long time."
"The device operates on one AA battery (not included) and run time is stated to be 180 minutes."
"I replace the battery every 3-6 months, and after a year I'm probably due for a new blade."
"I haven’t had to change the battery in a LONG time."
"The battery will last forever and then you can pop it out and start again."
Cons:
"Runs off of 1 AA battery that is not included."
"I have now owned 4 of these in 2 years. Every single one has randomly died."
"Unbelievable! Husband has only used this 3 times (purchased a year ago) and he tries it today and nothing! Change out the battery…nothing. Not happy at all!"
"This product completely died and stop working about a month 1/2 after I bought it."
"Got one few years ago, liked it but it died randomly. Got another one just a few months ago -- already dead."
"One of the standout issues was the device's battery life. Much like other reviewers have mentioned, the battery seemed to drain quickly, requiring frequent recharges."
"But I bought it on August 26th, and it died less than 2 months later."
Design and Build Quality
Pros:
"The trimmer feels sturdy, as do the attachments, and this is likely a device that will last many years."
"I BOUGHT THIS RAZOR BACK IN 2018 AND I HAVE HAD IT FOR LIKE 5 YEARS AND ITS THE BEST IVE OWNED."
"This is a really well made bathroom gadget."
"The design is sleek and ergonomic, making it easy to hold and maneuver."
"It is sleek, compact, and features a very nice design."
"The cap clicks in place and never fails."
"I find that it fits the contour of my hand & trims beautifully."
Cons:
"Flimsy pink plastic piece of junk!"
"This thing cuts NOTHING."
"Seems overpriced for what it is, as the small and cheap ones run about $9 and do the same job."
"I felt like this item was overpriced and making it pretty & pink was patronizing women, actually."
"This item works but is cheaply made. It does travel well. Replacement blades on Amazon are $25!"
"Also, the trimmer just feels like it’s cheaply made."
"It's kind of light and cheaply made, too."
Performance and Effectiveness
Pros:
"The blades work swiftly and cut quickly. They do not pull the hair."
"All the peach fuzz gone gone gone. My make up goes on so nicely now."
"I use the eyebrow trimmer for my whole face, and it's super quick and easy."
"The shave is not as close as with the flawless."
"So small and so powerful! It gets a pretty close shave and really gets rid of peach fuzz! Super easy to use and super durable!"
"It did such a great job getting the fine hairs on my neck and upper lip."
"Finally found one that doesn’t pull the hair or skin and actually catches all the little peach fuzz!"
Cons:
"It doesn't do much good tackling coarse hair that requires a sharp blade to mow down to the skin."
"This won’t provide the precision for nose or eyebrows & doesn’t quite get to the root of facial hair."
"Definitely not for sensitive skin. It cut my skin but, ironically, did not remove all the hair."
"It causes pimples whenever I use it because it's not sharp enough so you never get all the hairs nor a close enough shave."
"It’s working, it turns on, and seems to do some work…But it literally does nothing at all."
"This hair removal never clears the face of hair as it doesn't pull the roots."
"It is too weak to trim eyebrow hairs!"
Additional Features and Accessories
Pros:
"Included are the trimmer head that has 7 intervals along with two eyebrow trimming combs each with 3 intervals."
"It includes an eyebrows blades and two clip on brow length guides."
"It comes with many attachments for whatever your need may be."
"This gadget comes with the wand, 1 reusable (no need to replace) longer razor, 1 reusable very small razor attachment for detailing tough spots like around the brows."
"For a variety of uses, it comes with 3 different head fixtures for the desired trim."
"The other great feature is the eyebrow combs, which allow you to trim eyebrow hairs to the same length."
"I love the changeable blades, one is much shorter than the other."
Cons:
"I really wish Panasonic had included an a small storage bag for the trimmer and accessories."
"I wish the price point was lower as well, I think if this was a solid 12 dollars it would make more sense since you can't buy replacement heads."
"I always have purchased this item & loved it. Didn’t love the fact I can’t buy a new trimmer (the small piece to attach) I have to buy a whole new set every time."
"I wish there was one that was a USB charge with replacement heads!"
"None of them fit into the cap on, which is slightly annoying -- more parts you can lose just laying around."
"It does not come with eyebrow blade (shown in picture)."
"I also loved the accessories that come along with it."
