By a reference to a predecessor on a bargain website I ended up after some research on this machine.
PACKAGE CONTENTS / SUBJECTS:
Packed device is useful and without excessive frills. Also, at least in the present version of me broadly waived plastic. In addition to the groomer and the charger itself, are in the package nor the shear 3 essays to shorten longer hairs which stand for charging the unit (unfortunately the store only become possible) and the small cleaning brush. Furthermore, even a quick guide a warranty cards, on which will recommend to register online to get another year warranty (requires account creation at Philips)
Significance:
The Groomer feels very high quality, nothing rattles, nothing bends. The shear attachment can be easily and accurately remove and refit. The stand could be a bit more solid and heavy in my opinion. But only from the feeling. Functional ranges of the delivery state.
Handling / Result:
Now, however, for use in the application. Basically shaving with the Groomer is pretty easy on the hand, then at least if you have it not to hurry. In the first experiment, the device has me but initially very disappointed. Based on the experience I have always shaved in the shower. How was cleaning the skin, then processed fix a new razor blade on the razor and in a few minutes all the major sites of the body. That's not the Bodygroom unfortunately. I had the time of testing about 7-9mm long hair and tried it without shear attachment in the shower. As the hair smooth systems by the moisture on the body that was not already crowned with great success. So I initially dried me again and tried the whole thing again. Again, the result was not very satisfactory. I had to shave about every centimeter of my skin more than once in order to access even close to the result of a wet shave.
Since then I have echauffiert me a bit about the performance I thought. And the next day trying to check off again. Because anger is rarely a good counselor. Said and done. With more rest it was much better the next day. You have to drive relatively slowly through the skin and press it a little more than wet shave, then you come to a good result.
For non-Adonis-men like me applies: the belly skin well Vorst of plenty, then klappts. In the pubic area but you should act very carefully with the device, otherwise zwickts ever. So goes it. Basically, I'm satisfied with the result. I had been to use no skin irritations. So my expectations were met basically. But for a complete shave (chest, arms, back, thighs and groin area) I need about half an hour or more. This is one of the main criticisms for me.
Cleaning: The cleaning is very simple actually. The shaving head remove rinse well and possibly brush. Then the unit to rinse well and both shake well and dry (very well described in the Product Video). I spray the shaving head then ab.Fertig briefly with disinfectant. Very nice.
Suggestions on my part: to shave may make the shaving head slightly wider to handle more area per pass, or other constructional changes to fast. Device Stands possibly conceive so that you can install this option on a wall or a cupboard.
My conclusion: Really practical and easy to clean alternative to body-wet shave that looks well beyond. However, it is at least in my case, certainly not as fast, and is not so perfect.
