Vornweg said I had previously been a hair trimmer. He came from Aldi, cost about 20 euros, weighed a lot and held for about two years until he was too lazy to move the blade back and forth. Therefore, I expected his not much more expensive successor is not too much. It was a mistake. The Philips QC is an ingenious device. Light, powerful and durable, fits comfortably in your hand. One battery charge is enough for more than a complete men's haircut, so that one must not get tangled in a cable itself. It cuts willingly also strong, thick hair, without slackening the oscillation frequency. The sound is pleasant and quiet. Cleaning is almost effortless. But considering the distance cap, tilts his thumb the freely pivotable blade and blowing or reverses the few hair residues which strayed here from. A suitable small brush is included, but hardly needed. This also can be seen to drive, which consists of a single, robust vibration rod. The hair can not get in construction in the interior of the unit and contaminate it. Lubrication is unnecessary, as any maintenance. The cutting distance is 3 to 25 millimeters. This means that one so the skull can not shave himself quite bare. Otherwise, however, brings one into being a good hairstyle, because the ergonomics and handling are so good. Something adverse constructed seems to me the adjustable spacer cap made of plastic. She is elegant, easy to move and adjust accurately (so there are no interchangeable rigid attachments, which saves time and effort), but it tends to accidental slipping when they are in the heat of battle too strong pushes against the skin. Also she's right pointed ends, which sometimes become entangled in soft skin. But you get used to it quickly when you realize that it is possible to work with this feathery hair trimmer, so to speak on the fly and without press. Therefore, no deduction. I've been waiting for this review a year to be quite sure, have cut a dozen times with this device my head hair and regretted buying a single time.
