There are two versions of this razor supposedly and this is the slightly newer model as distinguished by the red accents. It has a stylish look but there are a few letdowns. The cradle holds the handle whilst charging, but there isn't any storage to hold the small brush attachment. Unlike other razors, there isn't the ability to swap for a wider range of heads either. Maybe this is intentional but perhaps that cost saving could have gone towards a travel bag perhaps.Additionally yes these units may use a lot of power, but 50 mins isn't that much time, and having used philips rechargable devices in the past, I expect within a year or two that time to be cut in half. Charging also takes an incredibly long time.

This Philips Series 7000 Waterproof Bodygroomer is a complete system for shaving/trimming below the neckline and comes with a 5 year warranty. In the box apart from the groomer you get a charger with UK 2 pin bathroom plug, charging stand, cleaning brush and instructions which are largely visual. The unit is powered by a rechargeable battery which gives you around 50 minutes of use in return for an 8 hour charge. Overall the trimmer looks and feels well made.The first thing which struck me is that unlike a conventional shaver this unit uses both of its ends - at one end you have the shaver and at the other end a trimmer with 5 length settings ranging from 5-11mm and it's easy to adjust the setting via a slide control.

This is an unusually designed body groomer with a trimmer at one end and a foil head shaver at the other. It's designed for use on hair underneath the chin only, so not for beards.The groomer is easy to hold with comfortable non-slip side grips and isn't likely to be dropped even with wet hands. It's fully waterproof which means you can use it in the shower and you can also clean it by simply rinsing it under the tap.The two ends of the groomer are operated by different buttons so it's simple to control, and the trimming end has a slider to change the length of the comb (and thus the length of the hair after it's been trimmed), which is great as it means you don't have to faff around with swapping multiple trimming heads.

The build quality of most Philips products is usually pretty good, even for their lower end things, and this follows that. The handle has a nice weight to it and forms into your hand very nicely, making for an easy shave. This is somewhat of a departure from most allover body groomers, because on one end you have a traditional shaver with comb, and on the other you have a foil head. So immediately it's easier to use because you don't have to fiddle around with attachments, taking of an attachment and putting on the other attachment. It does actually make difference. The stand is of good quality, solid and sits the trimmer fine.The cut itself is very good.

I have to admit, I'm not the target user of this product, not really. Nicest way of putting it - my hair isn't that long, neither is it coarse enough to warrant using this product. That said, I'm wondering if I could use the short hair trimmer on my legs... The man in the house is using it though, and the product itself is really impressive, neatly packaged in a rectangular box which makes the parts easy to remove. The shaver comes on a stand, and is charged up with the enclosed cable - takes aaaages to charge up. Once it is charged, the shaver itself has two heads - you just flick it over and decide what you're using it for. Is it the long one for long hairs, or the short one for short hairs?

Been using this product for a while now as a bodygroomer (it's intended purpose!) And it's so much easier too use than other products I've tried. Normal razors gives me terrible razor rash, this has no issues with that at all.Use the clipper side to get the hair down to stubble then use the other side to remove it completely. It does take a few runs to remove it but it does all go eventually.Waterproof so can be used in the shower and rinsed under cold water once it's been used. Replacement blades are also a good price (recommended to change every 6 month to a year I believe, depending on frequency of use!)The clipper side will cut occasionally,

What a super idea. Removing unwanted body hair is always a lot of drama - but this bodygroom system is an excellent solution, giving a quick result. These days it is the fashion for men to remove their body hair and this is the business for that job - at least for all the parts you can reach on your own, after that you need the help of a very good friend... And it's waterproof, so you can use it under the shower with no problems at all - which saves a lot of mess.But I have to say I think it is not just a great idea for the boys - there are a lot of us girls who have body hair issues - and this is definitely a great idea for us as well: for armpits, legs, bikini and any other locations we may have sprouted unwanted fur.

Over the past few years, the number of body grooming type products has exploded across the markets. Shavers have appeared for an incredible range of different and very specific applications from beards, to legs and elsewhere. This Philips version takes a slightly different approach offering two types of trimmer in one and leaving it up to you what you do with it.Anyone who has a similar Philips face trimmer may well be familiar with the shaver charger that comes supplied with the unit. After a few hours of charging you get many hours of grooming leaving me to expect I won’t be charging it often. The unit itself is both waterproof and well built, with a neat design that allows good grip when holding towards one end or another.

This is a well-made shaver by Philips and is supplied in a branded box with a folding stand/charger, charging lead with power supply, cleaning brush, and instructions. The shaver looks to be well made and feels comfortable to hold with a nice weight to it. On one end you have clippers with a built-in adjustable comb for initial grooming, and on the other, you have a foil head for finishing off.The clippers are effective and protected by an adjustable comb that can be removed for a closer cut. However, they are quite large and aggressive for sensitive areas and you need the comb to be used in those circumstances.

Arrived promptly. All in good shape. One of the best body groomers I have used. I got the 39 over the 40 model to save a little extra and I feel it still does an amazing job. I think battery life is better with 40 but I had no problems with my 39 once it was charged. The charger stand is cool. Both ends work well. The trimmer is excellent especially for close smooth work on the "below the waist". You still need to pull skin flat for the happy sack. If you don't and complain you got nicked well....I don't know what to say to you that doesn't scream common sense. With that said, even when you cant flatten all areas perfectly, it still gives a smooth close shave without nicking at all.

When I started looking for a body groomer, I kept looking at men's grooming tools. You know, the beard trimmer/nasal hair trimmer type things.Once I'd genned up on what I was really after (a leg and body shaver tool) the available choices narrowed considerably. I really wanted to buy a cheap groomer, but the more reviews I read (not just on this site) the more it seemed that I would have to buy the top dollar groomer - the Philips 7000.Having taken the plunge, I was glad I did! The R&D budget for this must have been significant, it does its job so well. Very effective on all parts of the body, minimal discomfort in use, and so easy to use.A small gripe - I wish the longer hair trimmer went down to 1mm instead of 3.

Body hair, we all have it, and the majority of us try to tame it. I feel like this used to be more women, though these days men have the same expectation.This is what the Philips Series 7000 trimmer is designed to do. Personally, I've used similar devices in the past, but never one this well thought out.I have to say, with that in mind, this is an excellent device. One side is designed to shorten hair with standard clippers that has a selectable length extension, the other is a trimmer with bodysafe design meaning you're less likely to cause damage to your skin.In use I found this to work really well, it cut through a lot of hair in a short amount of time and the two different heads complimented each other well.The battery held for almost half an hour which was more than enough time.

This is the 3rd version on this product I've bought, having only needed to replace older models due to battery life becoming diminished. (They really should make them so the batters can be changed... easily)This one seems to be an improvement on what was already a good design. It glides without snagging or pulling hair. Trims quickly without having to repeatedly go over areas. Possibly slightly quieter than the older model.Not sure why they have done away with the charging cradle, I quite liked that. This rubber flap over the charging port will surely end up letting in water. Not that I've used it wet yet as from experience with previous models they used to clog up a bit when hair was wet.All

Great product. I had a previous version of this but this top of the range upgraded version is far superior.Can do all intimate areas with pulling of snagging.Having the trimmer as a separate dedicated end rather than a comb attached is a big improvement.- separate comb attachment are easy to lose, but these are built into a sliding single comb on this model.- the hair fall out from under the graded trimmer end rather than requureing attachment to be removed to unplug it.Really like the new charging points on sides of trimmer. More waterproof design and sits in charging cradle better. Cradle folds for easier storage.The longer combined length means i can reach all parts of my back without the need for any attachments to extend reach.Length of charge seems fine.

I was wavering about this or similar products for a long time, but finally decided to try it out.Now, like a lot of us blokes, I'm pretty averse to cuts, nips, pulls or grazes in my private regions, so I was nervous.I approached my first attempt with trepidation, waiting for that first sack snip. But nothing. No matter how hard I tried (within reason), I couldn't damaged myself. Not a scratch. I stopped holding my breath...Yes, this really is a revelation. Works all over and is comfortable to use. Battery lasts ages and ages.It's my first product of this type that I've ever had confidence in, and leaves nadgers and all smooth as a baby's bum! (Don't use it on a baby's bum though).Highly effective,
