The handling of the beard cutting requires due to the small contact area on the skin a bit of practice to achieve a uniform shave. With a little patience at the beginning of the beard cutting is but 'also to so-called problem areas (crossing points on the neck and chin)' to tackle clean. Pulling I had not been able to find, although I did not just walk slowly to plants. However, I have repeatedly glide over some points in order to achieve clean results; because of some vertebrae and from different directions. But after the second shave I had 'the hang'.
Since the knife flush with the trimmer, a clean shave is possible, even below the nose and possibly other tighter spots, this is also true for clean edges and transitions. I here by the way is not suffered, and this does not have to worry about injuries.
The lack of a beard catcher the cut hair flying but 'through the area', which makes a small cleaning the beard trimming environment required. To clean the device a brush is, which is perfectly adequate. Cleaning under running water is also possible, but so far has not been necessary since the brush had all hairs away. The knife can be for cleaning the way open after removal of the cap, so that one also easily enter the inside with a brush.
The unit is due to the material and shape very comfortable to hold. The desired beard length can be positioned easily and safely in 0.5 mm increments within the range of 0.5 to 10 mm by turning the adjusting ring. The shaver makes a very solid and elegant (but is a matter of taste) impression.
The charging time for the battery is 10 hours. A residual display the battery power is not available. If the battery shaving idle, a shave after mains connection is possible once again.
The manual is kept quite short, but it is still sufficient. The packaging is rather spartan but adequate; There are 'as already mentioned' only a small cleaning brush and the charging cable in. A travel case would not be a disadvantage.
If you can live with the disadvantages described above and do not want to spend more money, is well served by the device. I would buy me back.
Considering the price / performance ratio, I think a rating of 4 stars with a slight tendency to 5 stars are justified.
