Product Reviews of Panasonic ER389K Rechargeable Beard and Mustache Trimmer
Product Review: Best Trimmer I have ever used!
Summary: 5 Stars
I originally bought this model in 1994 and it lasted 11 years of weekly use; for a small trimmer like this, that is terrific! I just bought another and look forward to another decade or more of use. A couple of great features to pass along would be the strong motor it has to cut through coarse facial hair and the built-in power prongs. Anyone that has had other trimmers knows how annoying it is to travel and lug around an extra adapter to charge a trimmer. This is so convenient. No matter where you are, you just slip out the power plug and plug into an outlet. Always readily available to charge up! There are many trimmers on the market, but none as convenient and straight forward as this model. I give this unit the highest marks!Product Review: Best shaver I've ever onwned
Summary: 4 Stars
This the best shaver I've ever owned. Shaves closely enough for me and has a good battery life. I only wish it had more adjustments. But overall it's a wonderful product.Product Review: Best trimmer I've ever used
Summary: 5 Stars
I only use a trimmer once every two weeks or so. Nevertheless, I found that my WAHL brand trimmers didn't last more than six months. Most of the other trimmers were too cheap or were too expensive. After researching the products, I took a shot at this one and I've been amazed.
No pulling, no razor burn and no breaking after only a few months. It blows away any other trimmer I've ever owned.
Product Review: Beware: Amazon's ship date claim is bogus
Summary: 1 Stars
I'd love to rate the Panasonic ER389K for you - unfortunately, I cannot ... I ordered it back on July 24th. However, it's now August 15th and it STILL hasn't even been shipped yet from Amazon. What's more, they now show another 2 weeks for delivery on my order status - yet they continue to list this item for sale showing 24 hour ship availability.
BEWARE AMAZON'S "USUALLY SHIPS IN 24 HOURS" CLAIM - it's bogus.
I've written two emails to Amazon to inquire about my order's status and have gotten zero response thus far. As a long-standing customer with lots of happy endings with Amazon, I'm shocked they're behaving so ineptly on this purchase.
If you order one from Amazon, I wish you the very best luck in actually getting it.
Product Review: Compact, effective, durable, but short battery life
Summary: 4 Stars
Bought one around 2002 and I'm happy to say it still works to this day, but the charge only lasts about 3 minutes and the blades move very slowly. I recall it starting to lose its charge around the third year, and so I looked for another one but could no longer find it in stores, and at that time I wasn't into Internet shopping, so I settled for a Wahl 9918 (after trying/returning 15 or so others), which still works perfectly do this day, but is not suitable for trimming/evening out hair on the head, legs, arms, chest, etc, plus you need the chord to recharge it. The Pansonic is very compact, has a super, easy-to-use depth gauge and has a built-in plug, making it simplier to use. It seems others have had problems with the charge too, and I think with this new one I'm going to avoid keeping it plugged in the majority of the time, as that may have over-burdened it and shortened its life span. I ordered four so I'd have a few backups in case they ever discontinue this, which I'm sure they eventually will. I've tried them all, and this is the best around for trimming applications.
