Product Reviews of Panasonic ER224S All-in-One Cordless Hair and Beard Trimmer (Silver)
Product Review: Ascetically pleasing, practically usless
Summary: 2 Stars
Does not reach top half of mustache, under nose, because of length of guide comb. Goes from a "5" to a "3", so if you want beard to be "4" it will be too long, or too short. Other than that it is good. I just don't like to have to have a beard trimmer, and then a mustache trimmer- wasted money.Product Review: Awesome Trimmer
Summary: 5 Stars
I really like this trimmer. Great settings, rechargeable, and waterproof. It works great, love itProduct Review: BUYER BEWARE - design flaw in plastic clipper guard
Summary: 1 Stars
Used for 1.5 months, and the plastic clipper guard broke! This renders the clippers basically useless. From reading other reviews, it turns out that this is a common problem. I called Panasonic, and they stated that this is NOT covered by their product warranty (?!?!). They recommended I buy a replacement. BUYER BEWAREProduct Review: Beats the Norelco, Honestly
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm on my second ER224S... I enjoyed using my first one for two years until I dropped it in the shower and the guard broke, rendering it useless. The rest of the trimmer was unscathed after the drop, however- a testament to its durability. I'm not sure why, but I replaced it with a Norelco vacuum model (39.99), enticed by its upscale features. There were too many moving parts which felt easily breakable, it was extremely loud from the vacuum (seriously, it could wake the entire house with no exaggeration), and was not waterproof making it a pain to clean.
The Panasonic, on the other hand, is a solid, simple design. Everything you need to keep your beard trim is right there, and there are no accessory blades to add or remove or inevitably lose. The blades are sharp, smooth, and very quiet. It feels solid in your hands, and gives an excellent trim. My beard is kept very low, and this does the job with ease.
Because it's waterproof, just rinse it off when you're done. Be sure to oil the blade once a week to keep it running perfectly, but that's the extent of any maintenance this thing needs. Another plus: a wall-dock style charger... The trimmer charges on the outlet, making travel easy (no cords to worry about), and keeping the shaver handy at all times in the bathroom. An excellent, well-rounded product.

$18.90 w/FREE shipping*?! Are you serious?
I'm 24 and I've been to your cheap SuperCuts and Master Cuts all the way to your expensive $20 hair cut whole shabang barbers that you find in the hood that take 45 minutes for a cut. I feel like I can do what the pro's do with these clippers/trimmer.
I've used my dads version of these clippers/trimmer for a few months already then liked it so much that I decided to buy my own set. The difference between mine and his is that his doesn't come with a wall charging base like mine and instead has a corded wall adapter. The newly designed unit with charging base is a lot more convenient and space-saving; check out the picture I attached.
I saw some posts complaining about the included trimmer under the guard and I ask myself what their problem is. The trimmer is sharp and strong enough to give you a razor sharp line up all around including your mustache and goatee. It's WAY BETTER (sharper and stronger) than those trimmers that come with the Wahl or Con Air clipper packs.
The clippers itself are nice. They're built great and nice and light. Like the trimmer, they're stronger and sharper than those Wahl (Chrome, etc.) and Con Air clipper sets you can find on Amazon and Wal-Mart for about $40+.
I love these clippers/trimmers so much I'm considering buying an extra set just in case they discontinue it. Buy them now and don't look back.
*Free shipping if you buy other stuff along with this that total more than $25 like I did.
