Customer Reviews of Wahl 9906-717 Groomsman Cordless/Battery Operated Beard and Mustache Trimmer
Customer Review: Pretty good trimmer but for minor glitches
Summary: 4 Stars
This product was to be used outside of US. So all those trimmers with 110v chargers were out of contention. Now the problem is that nowhere does Wahl mentions the input rating for it's trimmers. I called up their office and after a couple of tries and a voice message later a lady called me back. She put me on hold and went out searching for the information. Finally it turned out that the Wahl trimmers sold in US can only be used within US, unless of course you wish to buy a bulky step down converter. How thoughtful Wahl! Don't people in US travel out of the country? Why can't your chargers be made to operate within a range of voltage like the laptops and so many other electrical and electronic equipments do?
Thus the available choices reduced to a few battery operated ones only. And this one appeared to be the most promising from the various reviews on the Net. So I went ahead and ordered one on Amazon. It arrived well in time and was well packed. About the product, I think it is pretty good by itself. Here are my observations,
What you will like
-- Pretty ergonomic in terms of the grip.
-- Sound is not as loud as some people say it is. Most trimmers and electric razors make similar or even higher noise in my opinion.
-- It does not grasp a tuft of hair or pulls on it the way some people said it does. In fact it works pretty smooth. Ensure though to have dry beard when you run this trimmer.
-- Comes with different guides which makes it easy to find the one right for you.
What you will not like
-- It looks to me like the trimmer head is not made out of stainless steel. If you get it wet you may even have orange rust marks on it. My one seems to have come with one such blemish and it refuses to go away.
-- The guides are made out of pretty flimsy plastic. At least twice they fell off from the trimmer while in use because they do not grip the trimmer head very securely.
-- The base/stand is pretty useless in my opinion. It has lots of cuts and crevices but many can't fit in any of the attachments provided in the pack. You will still be left with some attachments for which there is no space in the base.
-- The manual, if you can call that multiple folded pamphlet so, is pretty flimsy. A clear documentation on the usage of the equipment and the attachments is required but is sorely missing in the pack.
So there are no major deal breakers as such. All in all I will say it is a pretty nifty little device that comes cheap and works well once you get a hang of it.
