Customer Reviews of Panasonic ER421KC Nose and Ear Hair Trimmer, Wet/Dry, Lighted
Customer Review: Does the job well!
Summary: 4 Stars
OK, I have to admit... I was at work and was so horrified by the giant clumps of hair sticking out of a client's nostrils (no kidding) that I came straight home, went online, and purchased these nose trimmers for my husband! That being said, I am very happy with the purchase as is my husband who happily uses this handy tool regularly. It is simple to use, isn't painful (or my husband would have abandoned it immediately), and the light is a handy way to "check your work" and make sure you haven't missed anything.
We can't speak to longevity (yet) since we bought it recently, but thus far it seems to be a high-quality well-designed piece of equipment that does the job it was designed for. What more could you ask for?!?
Customer Review: It trims the hair, but the light is useless
Summary: 4 Stars
I had owned a previous Panasonic trimmer that lasted for years until the (non- ) blade got dull and it became disposable. This one cuts almost as well, although it does try to yank a hair out by its root every now and then. As others have commented, the light isn't pointed anyplace useful to dispel the darkness in the nose. As for the ear, have you ever tried to look into your own ear canal? Overall, it appears solid, and we have used the device for a few weeks now. The little tiny clear plastic cap that covers the business end of the trimmer is ridiculously easy to lose, compared with the large cap on previous models. Still, it's way better than other brands we tried and had to return such as the "nose plucker" from Sharper Image.Customer Review: Does the job, but have had better
Summary: 3 Stars
Just a quick review....I have used another trimmer for a few years now and it did not seem to cut as well any longer. Since I was buying this as a gift for someone else, I decided to get a replacement for myself. Overall, the trimmer does the job. First, the good - the blades are sharp and actually cut the hair instead of pushing it to the side....but then again it is NEW. A few bad - light is not bright enough, blades do not spin fast enough (tried a few sets of batteries).
Overall, this gets the job done and I am not sure how pleasant it should be to trim nose hair. I probably would not buy this item again even though it was a decent price. You can get a similar or better unit at any drug store.
Customer Review: Doesn't cut very close - not recommended
Summary: 1 Stars
I've owned the predecessor to this model, the 411, for several years and had great luck with it. It's getting old, so I upgraded to the 421, which is much quieter and cuts with ease. Unfortunately, the 421 is useless because it leaves a considerable length of hair behind. In fact, it leaves as much hair as I used to start with when trimming with the 411. The blade on the 421 is recessed from the tip way too far. I'm an engineer and studied the inside of the unit to make sure there wasn't a manufacturing defect, and everything looked very solid and well assembled. I cleaned up my old 411 and it's working far better than my new 421, which is headed for the trash or a return to Amazon. Definitely not recommended.Customer Review: Wet/Dry nose hair trimmer
Summary: 5 Stars
I ordered this product for my husband and he loves it. It has a light on it so that he can see in dim lit situations. He can also use it in the shower, so that is great. The only problem I had with this trimmer was receiving it. I ordered it almost a month before Christmas and the week before Christmas I still had not received it. I had to put in a call to Amazon to see what the hold up was. They told me that a hold had been put on the order for some reason, but the problem was resolved so they didn't know why the product didn't ship. Whatever they did when I called, got them moving and the product arrived just a couple days before Christmas. No product issues, only shipping issues with this item.
