RemingtonOmniblade Hybrid Beard Trimmer and Shaver (Skin Close Precision with 0.15mm Cutting, 3 Stubble Combs, 5 Year Blade Guarantee, Battery-Operated) HG1000

I have had many shavers over my lifetime of shaving and it has to be said, this one was very surprising. A blade that can last without needing to be changed for hundreds of shaves? Absolutely true. It’s not as close as a foil shaver, not as close as One other brand- but I’m not changing a blade costing a fortune every month. It’s perfect to cut mov down a few days growth before doing a foil shave or not. And a daily shave is a doddle because this thing cuts quick. I’ve had this for months now and it’s shaving as well as the day I got it. I originally thought it being without internal battery was an inconvenience, but having my own rechargeable AAA batteries for it means I’m never without a full battery by swapping them out. A great investment, I would recommend to anyone.

Positive:I like the plastic guards that come with it that make beard trimming very easy. It is not a shaver (nor does it claim to be) but for the head (without any guard) it does trim stubble down to a very short length once you get the hang of it.Negative:Do not use it unguarded on neck or any other slack tissue (you know what I mean). It can nick and draw blood.

I use this to close trim after I cut my hair or a quick shave. It does not cut as close as my wet razor but is kind to my skin.

I have had this for five months and it’s one of two trimmer that I use. It does not keep charge. I think it leaks when not in use making it useless really.I don’t know what’s wrong with it, and I don’t know it I just ended ups with a faulty one, but this shouldn’t happen really with an item from a reputable brand.I wouldn’t recommend it. Sorry!

Don't get me wrong this is a very nicely made and thought out shaver but only as a close shaver. Its very very sharp and fast cutting. However I found the attachments a bit fiddly and uncertain and didn't like the shave on 1mm - 5mm. It was uneven and required uncomfortable handling to achieve something even half way acceptable.The close shave was close but was scratchy and uncomfortable.I sent it back and kept the beard trimmer I already have.The search for a decent trim continues......

Not quite as good as I was expecting it to be, I use the Phillips one blade but was trying to save the cost of blades, most likely a waste of money.

I already had another version of this, powered by 2 AAA batteries. But as the batteries wear down, so does the speed of the cutting blade. But I liked it, and then it made sense to get the rechargeable version. It's good that men can have the grooming tools they need, that work. I like it because I can wet shave less frequently. I still wet shave, but less often. Wet shaving is also easier if I use the Omniblade the day before. I like there is no compartment to empty out. The hair falls mainly(!) in the sink. Some hair does get trapped in the plastic joins. Needs improvement here. I use a mini brush from another kit to clean the cut hairs from the plastic joins.

I was hoping for it to be better than Phillips one blade. According to reviews it is ? It’s a waste of money. Pulling hair not shaving. Who is writing those great reviews ?????
