Product Reviews of Wahl 9906-717 Groomsman Cordless/Battery Operated Beard and Mustache Trimmer
Product Review: Got what I paid for
Summary: 4 Stars
I thought based on the other reviews that this trimmer would be effective though not a great trimmer. It cut well but was a real pain to change to the adapters and it did not have a very wide blade. It did cut well while the battery held up.Product Review: Great Portable Trimmer..
Summary: 4 Stars
Works smooth & quiet with no cord to deal with either. The accessory stand is skimpy and lightweight and slides around easily. The attachments fall out also...but, if you want a nice trimmer at a great price...pick this up!Product Review: Great Value
Summary: 5 Stars
Owned a Wahl Mustache Trimmer for many years. When it quit I looked for another one just like it and found this one for $10. This one is nicer than the one I had, works great & I am very satisfied.Product Review: Great deal. Replaceable batteries extends the life of the trimmer
Summary: 4 Stars
I've had a beard for the last 13 years, and have gone through almost a dozen beard trimmers.
The batteries typically die in less then a year (my fault, I don't keep these things plugged into the wall all the time). Replacing the internal battery is always too expensive. The other parts usually work fine!
This trimmer solves the battery problem by allowing you to use your own batteries. This really extends the life of the trimmer.
I use rechargeable NiMH batteries (which are less powerful then standard alkaline batteries), and the trimmer works fine. It's powerful enough, and I don't need to waste another set of alkalines.
Product Review: Great if you want to buy a new one every 1-2 yrs
Summary: 2 Stars
I've unfortunately been using Wahl beard trimmers for 15 years and can't seem to find a good alternative. When they work, they're great, fast, precise, etc. The problem is that whether you buy the rechargeable or battery-powered models, they fail quickly. Main problem (and I've had over 10 of them): they fail to hold a charge after a while regardless of the model. 2nd problem: the main foil (blade) points chip easily when dropped. On three occassions I didn't realize that the tips of a few of the foil points had broken off and on each of those times, I cut myself with the uneven blade (blood, etc). These are poorly made machines, made to be used for short period of time and then tossed.
