Customer Reviews of Wahl 9906-717 Groomsman Cordless/Battery Operated Beard and Mustache Trimmer
Customer Review: Works great, but VERY loud
Summary: 3 Stars
I bought this to replace a cheap Vidal Sassoon trimmer that broke. This Wahl seems like a decent product, but it is extremely LOUD. I read another review where the author said he couldn't hold the trimmer up to his face because of the sound. I completely agree with this. The device is so loud as to be painful at times. It sounds like a weed whacker on your face. I'm not sure why this is, since other Wahls I've owned were very quiet (even the $10 Sassoon trimmer was far quieter).
It does what Wahl claims it does, but is too earsplitting for me to give it more stars.
Customer Review: Beard-Pulling, the Cruelest Form of Torture
Summary: 1 Stars
When my 10+ year-old Conair (purchased at Kmart for about $15) finally quit, I needed another inexpensive, simple beard trimmer. Unfortunately, I chose unwisely. This one pulls at my stubbly beard like Velcro with Super Glue on it! Aieeeeeee! The irony is, before it died unexpectedly, the old Conair was working much better than this torture device. Things keep getting cheaper and shoddier. Maybe I need to spend $100 for a Braun or something. Certainly not another Wahl. I'm going to miss old Connie...Customer Review: Horrible
Summary: 2 Stars
Won't run on NiMH rechargable batteries (I use Eneloop, awesome batteries). Drains even quality alkalines really fast (I can get like two sessions out of a set, whereas my Braun Pocketgo shaver will last for a couple months and runs fine with my Eneloops). Doesn't have a lot of power. I got a haircut the other day and I don't know what brand of trimmer they used but it was about the same size, battery operated and it was an amazing difference. This piece doesn't even begin to compare. Do not buy!Customer Review: Poor quality
Summary: 1 Stars
I expected more in the way of quality from Wahl. The plastic case had parts that did not properly fit making even the simple task of inserting batteries difficult. I was not successful in this most basic of efforts. It may cut well but I never even got it to run -- and, I am no stranger to inserting batteries into small appliances
I packaged it up for return within 15 minutes of initially opening the shipped item.
Thank you Amazon for an excellent return policy.
Customer Review: Good purchase, as expected
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this unit primarily based on the reviews in Amazon.com. The price was reasonable and I was replacing a previous unit that had simply worn out from years of use. The only complaint that I have/had is that the clip that you slide on and that adjust up and down to adjust the length of the trim was difficult to get on and given it is plastic I fear will break some day. So far has worked great but I worry that this part may break. For 15 [...] or so I would recommend this unit.
