Customer Reviews of Panasonic ER411NC Nose and Ear Hair Groomer
Customer Review: I always carry it in my hygiene kit
Summary: 5 Stars
I have a previous Panasonic nose trimmer model which I purchased over 8 years ago. I use it often, as I find excessive nose hair offensive. Although my old model works very well, I ordered this model over 1 year ago to have a spare in my hygiene kit, as I am often on the go with very little advanced notice. Although both models trim nose hair excellently, his model, Panasonic ER411, is more powerful than my previous model, trims faster, and finishes the job in less time. The end result is, however, the same for both; an excellent trim. This new model, ER411, is just as easy to take apart and clean, as the old model. One improvement, besides a more powerful motor, is that the cap has vents that allow for air drying with the cap on, and the cap will also prevent the trimmer to inadvertently turn "ON" via an innovative locking mechanism.Customer Review: I'll go back to using a WAHL brand trimmer ...
Summary: 1 Stars
For almost twenty dollars (thirty dollars list, according to Amazon ...), I thought this might be a pretty good trimmer. And the reviews seemed good, so I bought one. Well, I tried several new batteries in the trimmer, but it still nicked and cut when I tried it. Not for tender noses! ... the thing hurts and leave red inflamed marks on tender skin. I really just can't stand to use it at all ... I fear it's going to draw blood. It might be OK on ears, but I don't need it for that. It's also of flimsy construction and I'm afraid that if I once accidentally dropped the thing on bathroom floor or countertop, that would be the end of it. I much preferred my old Wahl brand trimmer, which did a good job, never hurt, has been durable and lasted years -- and Wahl costs less! The Panasonic is OUT and I'm going to buy another Wahl brand.Customer Review: A fabulous device.
Summary: 5 Stars
Let's face it, men of a certain age start to find the need for regular mowing of bits of our faces that previously needed none.
The problem is the prospect of sticking conventional trimming devices up ones nose or down ones ears, ranks anywhere between terrifying and psychotic! Scissors up the nose? no way and the prospect of tweezing, jeeeeesh!!
Then I found this, a buzzy little friend with a delicate head and no visible blades nor any which could harm skin but get them near tufty and furry facial cavities and they are back to their hairless days in no time. With this I can trim in minutes and no longer have to fear looking like a scarry guy who is going mouldy. One tip I would offer, after trimming your nose hairs thoroughly, blow your nose well to do what your barber does with the old neck brush!
Customer Review: A fatal design flaw makes this unit quite painful
Summary: 1 Stars
I have had a previous model panasonic trimmer, but it gave up the ghost and I had to replace it. So I went with another Panasonic.
My old Panasonic didn't hurt. Its blades were configured to hit the hairs at a more right angle, cutting cleanly and quickly. Hairs could only enter the cutting zone of the head on the SIDES of the cutter, not on the tip.
This (reviewed) unit allows hairs to enter the END of the cutter, where they are TWISTED out of your skin. It hurts like crazy - and I'm highly pain tolerant. I think they must have done it to make the tip smaller. But it's a totally ineffective compromise. It made my eyes water and started an insane sneezing fit. Entertaining for my wife, yes, but this thing is no good. Not even worth returning - this is hitting the trash can.
Customer Review: No joke -- it works and it's cheap, too
Summary: 5 Stars
It's hard to keep a straight face when discussing the personal grooming solution this little wonder offers -- but the bottom line is it works. Really.
There may be some who have mastered the art of using scissors to remove nosehair, but I'm not one of them. No matter how hard I've tried in the past, I've never been able to quite get the job done. Not even close. And I figured the $15 price tag was worth it if only to satisfy my curiousity about how these things actually operate, or at least be good for a laugh or two from my wife or kids.
Well, it's no joke. Yeah, there's a minor tug or two during operation as some have noted, but the inside of my nose is as smooth as a baby's bottom. My advice is to give it a shot. What have you got to lose? Well, other than the obvious, that is.
