Advantages: Quick to use, great battery life, light weight. Disadvantages: Vulnerable to moisture
...I bought the RemingtonMB 320C rechargeable beard trimmer three months ago and thought that I'd share my experience with the world.
I have a beard, partly for idle non shaving reasons but also because I was getting increasingly fed up with staring at my father in the mirror every morning.
I did a little research before buying the Remington both on Ciao and Amazon.
I paid £19.99 for this trimmer from an eBay trader but with my eBay voucher for £10 this became very cheap.
It has a charging/recharge indicator and is supplied with its charger
This model is the first that I have used and I am really impressed with it. It takes no more than 5 minutes about once a week to keep my beard in trim. It is possible to set the zoom wheel which adjusts the length of cut anywhere between 1 and 9, 1 is very short and I find that 6 suits me best...

Advantages: Does the job Disadvantages: Pulls at hairs
...want to pay too much but I dont want a set that will only last 5 minuites either. I spend a few moments looking at each and opt for the Remington HC 210c attracted by the price and the number of attachments.
They are £17.99 and the clippers are exposed in the packaging. The actual hand set is really chunky and is metallic silver. There is a blue seethrough plastic lever to the left of the blades. This is the taper lever, which enables you to fine tune the length of the blade. My hands are like shovels so I dont mind the hand set being so chunky, but for those of you with finer features this might be a little on the large and heavy side.
The Remington comes with 8 guide combs which determine how long or short the hair ends up. These are 25mm(1"), 18mm(3/4"), 12mm(1/2"), 9mm(3/8"), 7mm(1/4"), 3mm(1/8") and a left and right taper. Also...

Advantages: Heat up very fast. Disadvantages: People assume they're not as good as GHD.
...The particular model that I am refering to in this review, are the Remington S1002 slim ceramic Teflon coated model. I originally bought these because they were only £35, assuming that they would just about do the job, as I really could not justify paying £100 for GHD straighteners. I thought that GHDs were just a craze, I must admit, it is a craze that has lasted, but I feel they have an unjustified high status.
After using these straighteners for the first time, Iknew that I had bought the right ones. Myhair is kind of frizzy, but also quite oily, (that's hairdresser talk for greasy!). I have always bought straighteners that included a steamer, to moisturise my hair, which always just made it more frizzy. I grew really fed up of this, and cut it off, myself, into a short bob. Surprise, surprise, not but one month later...

I spent a long time looking for a beard trimmer that would be easy to use, reliable, and offer a variety of services...this product ticks all the boxes!
It has 9 pre-set lengths (1.5mm to 18mm) of cutting, easily adjusted by a locking zoom-wheel, so... more
