Easy to use and very effective
This was purchased to replace a similar device from another brand used for a number of years but was really quite ineffective although it did sometimes catch the odd hair or two. Its operation was very different and ir was the sole choice available when purchased. A far greater number of choices are now available, even from within a single brand of which some use the same system as the model now to be discarded. This uses a toothed cutter that does not pull the hairs, finds and cuts them easily without pulling on them and without causing pain or discomfort.Although described solely as for nasal hairs, it can also be used in the ears and on eyebrows on which you will need to exercise care and to pay attention as you may otherwise finish with half of one.It uses a single supplied AA battery which should last for a year or more before replacement. The motor is sufficiently powered for the job required and the device is capable of good results. It is also competitively priced and there are several others that have prices within a few £ either side of this. The bottom section needs to be turned for the arrows to align in order to insert the battery, but a small leaflet will need to be removed. When replaced, the section also functions as the power switch using the other two marked positions.My personal grooming kit is, with the addition of this now 100% Philips; a few months ago it was 100% another brand although Philips products were used some years previously but then fell out of favour for some years.The trimmer works as claimed and intended and will be a good choice unless a rechargeable version is desired.

Simple Safe Effective and Solves one of my lifes pet hates (nasal and ear hair!)
One of the greatest trials I face is trying to ensure that I dont have hair sticking out of my nose or ears....I think it makes you look a lot older and its a real turnoff! Ive tried all sorts of devices in my time from simple tweezers and pointy scissors to alls sorts of weird and wonderful devices for removing unwanted nasal and ear hair. Some worked better than others but they were fiddly, painful or simply not good at what they were supposed to do. Until now.I purchase this on the basis of good reviews and I have not been disappointed. The item arrived bang on time. It was well packaged and the packaging was adequate without being OTT. The produce came blister packed and was in perfect condition. Use a pair of scissors to open the packaging...that way its simple clean and safe.!In the package was the main unit, a very handy travel pouch, battery, blade protector and 2 eyebrow trimmer guides and the instructions.The instructions looked very complicated but then I realised that that they were in about 12 different languages. Once I found the English guide it was a doddle to set up. I was using the product within 5 minutes of opening. And this is one of those great simple products that simply does the job effortlessly and intuitively. Very quickly I got the hang of using it and about four short minutes later my ears were as smooth as the proverbial babies bottom and my nose was devoid of nasal hair.....Bliss! Its not often that you can spend a relatively small sum of money and have a problem that has bugged me for years disappear.So to summarise if you are looking for a simple effective eyebrow, nose and ear hair remover that is simple to use and totally painless then look no further...this is the product for you

Travel trimmer for the discerning gentleman
Men over a certain age will start to grow hairs in funny places.... if that bothers you or your partner then you need one of these.OK product, its main trade off is....The blades cut hair, but only if the blade moves across the hair at the right angle. So you will likely need to do a couple of passes to get any odd hairs. On the plus side you will 100% never cut yourself with the blade or accidentally pluck the hair instead of cutting it. Good to know if you are sticking this tool up your nose or around your ear where it is sensitive and the skin is thin.The attachments are handy for doing your eyebrows if you want to keep them neat. The advantage of the cutting at the right angle with the attachment on is you won't lop off a massive chunk of you eyebrow. And cutting is gradual with multiple passes, which I see as a good thing.Cleaning is virtually not needed, the device doesn't hold any hair and normally a quick blow over the blade will suffice.Battery use, I haven't changed the battery since getting it and am still using the one that came in the box. Had it for over a year now. Although I do remove the battery after each use and keep everything together in the pouch that came with the shaver.All in all a decent trimmer. My only gripe would be if it cut better, but I accept if it did I would likely have cut myself, as I have done with other sharp trimmers in the past. But at its price definitely well worth its 4 out of 5 stars.

Great piece of kit!
I had one of these before as a Christmas gift. It was a great little nose, ear and eyebrow trimmer. I was trimming a personal area when the cutter stopped working. Motor ran fine but something had come disconnected from the cutter blade. I’ve just bought the same one again and it’s great. I didn’t realize (and not one review I’ve read mentions this) that the cutter head twists off and detaches from the machine body completely. It doesn’t make this clear in any instructions although this replacement did have a little thin card trapped in the removable head with a diagram to show it twists with a quarter turn to remove it. Never knew that. I just used to wash the old one under the tap still fixed to the body. Now I know it is removable I can rinse the cutter far more thoroughly. I’ll take better care of this one and maybe I’d been a bit rough with it on my coarse hair which is possibly why the cutter stopped suddenly and the ‘transmission’ became disconnected. New one didn’t have a cutter protector cap but I’m using the one from the old one so no worries. I guess Philips are trying to save money? A good effective tool for safe hair removal. Recommended.
