So! you're like me... someone who reads reviews, compares articles and weighs up specs on everything before you buy. Welcome to the only review you need to pay attention to.I went through every review online and in magazines to find the top brands; Wahl, Remington and Phillips. I eventually ended up filtering them all down and going round and round in circles, always ending up back to this one. The negative comments put me off slightly, but so glad I ignored them - there's always going to be a group of grumpy people around. I even messaged owners of this trimmer to see what they say about it - all still swear by it, now including me.Now for the actual product:- To give you a sense of scale,

I purchased this beard trimmer over 2 years ago and have recently purchased another as a gift for my brother. This Remington MB320C is absolutely fantastic and provides amazing quality at a bargain price.The build quality is fantastic and the trimmer looks as good as new after 2 years of abuse. It is solidly built, comfortable, light and balanced to hold. The trimmer comb attachment is adjusted by a thumb wheel and clicks in to place nicely. There are nine length settings ranging from 1.5-18mm. The settings are 1.5mm, 2.5mm, 3-4mm, 4-5.5mm, 5-7mm, 6-9mm, 7-11mm, 8-14mm, 9-18mm. This makes the trimmer ideal for styling your beard whether you prefer very short stubble or a long beard.

I feel I must state 2 things here. Firstly I have to report that I purchased this shaver in November 2009 and after 3 years of continued use it is still trimming my low cut beard extremely well. I have the setting set at 4 which is my preferred height of hair and have had no problem with the shape of the cutter and the fact that the on/off switch is located on the right hand side and being right handed I have not had to seek out left handed friends or attempted to become ambidextrous in order to turn it on/off. The only problem with this otherwise great little trimmer is the battery. It only holds enough charge for about 20 minutes trimming.

I bought my first 'Remington Barba Beard Trimmer' about 10 years ago and it has only stopped working last weekend when I dropped it on the hard bathroom floor. When it finally broke the grading adjustment mechanism had come loose and would no longer adjust. However, up until now the blades have kept their sharpness and the product has never presented a design flaw.I usually just store the shaver in a wash bag with a lot of other grooming equipment but the finish on the shaver has never dented or begun to look used and old. Even the silver coating down the sides has stayed looking pretty much new. On another instance when I had accidently dropped the shaver, one of the ribs from the plastic guard broke.

I commend Remington for coming up with an outstanding piece of technology. As a school teacher, I wear a goatee to be up to speed with current facial fashion. However, to date, the goatee grew to an unmanageable extent by Friday, necessitating the shaving off of it in its entireity on Friday evening. The result was that I was goateeless until around Tuesday of the next week, and this was a most unsatisfactory position. The Remington MB320C was a godsend, in that every Friday all that I need to do is trim the goatee and not shave the whole thing off. The result is that I am able to have a goatee 100% of the time, and so remain facial-hair credible at all times.

For a long time now I've used a trimmer to cut my facial hair short as I prefer the "short stubble look" to completely shaving. My first trimmer was a Remington (a similar but older model to this one) and it was brilliant. The battery lasted ages, it rarely needed maintenance and worked really well. When I lost the charger for it on holiday, I looked at what was available at the time and decided to go for a Wahl model to replace it. I put my trust in the Wahl brand, since I've seen their stuff in barber shops and hair dressers countless times. It was a big mistake though - the clipper needed constant oiling, the motor was never very strong and it felt quite cheap in the hand.

Deceided to grow a beard for a laugh before the holidays. It stopped being funny when I got to the 'Jesus phase', but I didn't want to lose it completely.After spending ages trying to find reviews for beard trimmers and coming across ones with little vacuums, hair traps and even lasers (yes, laser beams -- on a beard trimmer), I opted for this one. Partly since it seemed simple enough that it would cover my use cases and a lot of other people thought it was ok too. Had it for a few weeks now and overall, I'm pleased with it.Pros:- Simple to use. You turn the dial to the desired 'length' and flick the switch and start trimming.- Easy to handle. Doesn't feel like it's flimsy not too heavy.

Finding the right personal trimmer has always been difficult task for me. I don't 'clean' shave due to my sensitive skin coming up in spots when I do, so I've always used a trimmer to shave just above the skin surface. I also, shave my head regularly so agian needed a groomer that could also double up as a hair trimmer. Previously used a BaByliss for men motorised trimmer ( as the guard is robust and doesn't detach when shaveing) but after a year's use the battery lasts for about 30 seconds before dying, and that was after this BaByliss replaced the first for exactly the same fault. So, needed a new one. It needed to be cordless and rechargeable, be able to trim quite shallow and the blade gaurd had to be tough so the 'teeth'

Firstly, the benefit of this trimmer is the small incremental height adjustments. You will probably start off with finding the desired length (lets face it, nobody puts a ruler to their face to measure how short or long they want their beard trimmed!). You simply attach the "trimmer comb attachment" (the attachment push fits onto the trimmer) and then use the "zoom wheel" on the neck of the trimmer to adjust the height of said attachment. This will allow you to adjust the length of cut. Next to the zoom wheel, is a small window that displays the length position indicator of the comb attachment. This makes it very easy to remember the length you desire the next time you use it - gone are the days of remembering the number of "clicks for your trimmer.

Having owned this for 4 years now, I can confirm that it's a great quality product and a pleasure to use.Fully charge it before you start using it to get the most out of it. There's an LED which changes from orange to green when the charge is full. I use the trimmer roughly 4 days a week and the charge still lasts 2 - 3 weeks. You'll be able to hear the trimmer slowing down as you reach the very end of the charge, giving you maybe 2 more full beard shaves. You can simply plug it in a run it from mains while you finish your shave if you run it to no charge.There are 9 length settings on it, but I've only ever used 1 - 4 and they all trimmed evenly without pulling, catching or sticking.

After my phillips multigroom trimmer decided to give up not 2 months after I bought it, I had a browse for replacement. The reviews for this are good overall and the name has a good reputation so I went for it.Pro's-SO much better quality than the phillips ( honestly a different league)-Really nice design, smooth edges and fits very nicely into my hand ( again much more comfortable than the phillips )-Instead of having to take parts off and add different parts on this trimmer has it all intact, so changing the length settings is so much easier (just a thumb movement) with this design it also means that the setting you choose doesn't slip,

No major complaints, I used this several times weekly for 7 years which isn't a terrible run. The battery had worn down a bit, but on opening it I found two standard AAA-size li-ion cells which could be replaced if you're handy with a soldering iron. It was still comfortably lasting 2-3 quick shaves anyway.But the reason I opened it in the first place was that it was dropped, and the comb no longer stays in place. Basically, you could use it at number 1 and that was it, which isn't much good for someone who usually uses it on number 6.The comb extension works by rotating a dial, which pushes two pieces of plastic (about 1mm in diameter) on either side, which are both attached to a tray which pushes the comb outwards.

To set the scene, I have used pretty much most types of shaving gear, cheap disposables, expensive disposables, electric razors, double edged razors etc etc. Had varying levels of results and skin irritation.I probably got my best shave from the double edged, but all the messing about with lathering started to get to me, and I craved the quick fix of something simpler.Step in the Barba beard trimmer.I'm using this to keep a tidy level of stumble. So far, it is working well. I use it on the lowest setting with the guard, I would say it is slightly more than stubble, but for me it is fine. If you want proper short stubble, this may not be right for you.

This is my 2nd Remington MB320C. The first one lasted almost exactly 4 years before I had to dispose of it. Ironically it was still trimming my beard as well as it was when new ( I keep my beard at 1mm and use it at least twice a week ) but the battery had completely given out. During the last 12/18 months of its life, I noticed that the recharge was progressively holding for less and less time. Eventually it would not recharge at all. I searched for alternatives but customer reviews were mixed and when I priced this one on Amazon it was only £16 to replace and that over a 4 year period is very little.Much as I hate built in obsolescence there really was no sensible alternative.

Bought this before Christmas 2017 and charged it up. First time of use I knew I had a winner. Have previously used other brands of re-chargeable trimmers which need replaced every 2-3 years because they stop holding their charge and consequently struggle to go through my beard.I was impressed with this Remington first time I used it, but have been amazed to find how long the battery lasts. I first charged it in December,and have used it once or twice a week since, and yet only had to charge it for a second time in early June. That's nearly SIX MONTHS on one charge.What was noticeable when it did need re-charged was that it stopped suddenly which wasn't a problem as I simply plugged it in and finished trimming with it attached to the mains.
