Customer Reviews of Panasonic ER421KC Nose and Ear Hair Trimmer, Wet/Dry, Lighted
Customer Review: Great Nose hair trimmer ... but the light is misleading...
Summary: 4 Stars
I have a couple of trimmers on their last leg so I bought this one especially as I thought the light is a great idea... well the light is sort of a joke.. not very bright as it is just a tiny little bulb.. reading reviews and seeing the picture the impression I got was that it has a round circular light at the base of cutter head with broader beam light.. not so.. not all that useful.. you can "sort of" look inside your nostril but rather tricky to point the tiny bulb light in the right direction.
But the trimmer itself is the best one I've tried so far... it feels very well made and substantial in my hand.. it makes trimming my nose hair somewhat of pleasure.. and less of a chore.
Customer Review: The cheaper panasonic is very likely just as good
Summary: 4 Stars
I've been using this product for several months now, and I haven't had any major problems with it. Just like any other shaver/trimmer, it CAN cut your skin (I've only had a small nick once, however). Also, it sometimes rips out hairs rather than cutting them, interrupting the twenty seconds of use with stings of pain now and then. Also, this can cause a pimple/whitehead/pus to emerge, although it's only occoured once to me during use. Dried nasal mucus (i.e., boogers) seem to increase with the use of this product; perhaps it's simply more noticible with shorter hairs, though. The light is absolutely worthless.
---The cheaper model likely works just as well; I'd buy it instead.---
Customer Review: If you're a hairy guy, get one.
Summary: 4 Stars
I think this is a great little trimmer. I never had one before. Instead, I used to trim my nose and ear hair with a small scissors. But a small misstep left me wearing a band-aid in a somewhat embarrassing place. So I ordered this little puppy and it does a great job. I feel a little silly sticking it up in my nostrils, especially if my wife is around. She has a tendency to make fun of my technique, but she never complains about my grooming. My only reticence about the product is the power - sometimes I think if could use a little more. Then again, I'm not sure I'd want to put a stronger unit up my nose. I'm happy to recommend this unit. If you're a hairy guy, I highly suggest picking one up.Customer Review: Maybe I got a dud
Summary: 2 Stars
I've had this thing for many years and the first two times I used the nose trimmer it worked well but after the second time it seems to have a really hard time picking up speed when spinning the blade and keeping up speed. I have always cleaned it meticulously after every use and even tried different kinds of lubrication and batteries but it just works very poorly. I still have it and put up with it but it's very frustrating because it ends up pulling a lot of hairs because the RPM's intermittently drop which cause the blade to yank the hair instead of cutting it. Also, the LED light is completely worthless and you really have to wonder what engineer thought that would be a good idea.Customer Review: Try a different model
Summary: 2 Stars
I've used this trimmer a few times and it pulls a lot. I have an old Connair el cheapo and it does the trick without pulling - the only concern is that I can smell burning when I use it which is why I got another one. I'll stick to scissors for now until I find a trimmer that works properly.
I had this product for about eight months before it died on me. When it was working it was quite painful to use, often pulling and tearing away the nose hairs. The light was absolutely pointless. It was better than the Connair I had prior to it whose motor you could smell burning as you used it. I can't believe how few choices there are for trimming nose hair and how useless they are.
