For longer beards better

Have bought the trimmer for my rather short beard to trim these and to keep "in form". At first I thought I had caught a Monday device that do not intersect. Then I noticed that if one chooses the shortest stage (1 of 9), but can achieve reasonably satisfactory results. The Stop running set is also rather disappointing.
Did the device but then keep it, because not so expensive. With a more expensive device (from 70-80) but one is certainly better served.
