Is this razor/edger a face shaver or is a hair trimmer/edger or both?

I use it as a hair trimmer. You could use it to shave but depending on how much growth you have it may not cut close enough for you. However its great for trimming and precise in edging.

No, it's not a slant! That part of the description is not accurate; perhaps a bad translation from Japanese? It does not have a "Twist Off Opening Head" either; that's also inaccurate. It's a non-slant, closed comb, stainless steel three-piece razor. It shaves very closely, and is indeed "aggressive." It's very well made, and a great buy for a stainless steel razor -- the stainless handle alone is well worth the price of the whole razor!

It's designed to trim a beard and define edges. It is not a substitute for a razor that can give a clean shave.

This is more for trimming and grooming facial hair. Though they are durable, you'd be better off going to wahl's site, looking under pro tools, and investing in a good set of their hair clippers. They are not much more than this model , will suit your purpose better, and all have replaceable blades available for very little. Some are even rechargeable lithium, if you really want to ditch the cord during use. Find the ones you like, and see if amazon has them. Wahl will provide a list of authorized sellers, as the pro line is not sold at many stores.

Actually it DOES have a trimmer in the back that pops up that works reasonably well. I use it when I need to quickly outline my beard. It doesn't trim\outline as crisp as my Andis T-edger or Wahl 3080 but it gets the job done. I purchased mine last August, so the only caveat with my information is that perhaps the newest model that the previous responder purchased could have been changed by the manufacturer. I would suggest going to Wahl's site and confirming.

This shaver is an intimate and body trimmer and not designed for the beard. I am using a Braun cruZer6 for beard and ears. Also, it can be used for head haircuts. The two together can let the gentleman care for just about all areas. The only thing missing is for us Neanderthals who have hair inside our ear canals that we need to conquer. Recommendation? Spring for this one and a beard trimmer.

There is a precision trimmer that slides out the rear similar to those on previous Norelco models for sideburns, nose hairs, etc. if that is what you mean by a body groomer.It is noisier than on my previous shavers, but works very well.

Mine has a trimmer, but I don't have facial hair. I use it for touch up trimming. I'm not sure how well it would work on a beard.

i think it's a newer model w/a slightly shorter blade. i also went to their site f/comparison before purchasing. either way, you cannot to wrong w/these shears. it's battery lasts forever as you don't have to recharge often. cleanup is easy & if you purchase the extension arm, edging is a breeze. this is the best shears i've purchased.

The blade looks to be about inch or so. I use it on my chines crested face and it is perfect size. I have bought 2 of these and love it, it is quiet does not get hot and shaves my hairy hairless perfectly and fast. It is also cordless and the charge last forever.

I have no experience with a shaved head, but this has been awesome for my chin. My problems with razor bumps have been dramatically reduced. With that said, I should say that I DON'T use it as a trimmer . I like to keep a separate tool that's just for trimming.

Yes, The Trimmer works Great for beard trimming or Keeping your Hair groomed. A Good Choice.

I'm not sure exactly what that is I'm guessing an electric shaver. It does work well withe the hair clippers so I'm thinking it should work for that too

There are 3 blades. The one in the center is built into the foil holder. It's driven/powered by a post coming up from the razor body. The other two blades have a more conventional design whereby the blades are attached to the razor body. Technically, there's a fourth blade - the sideburns trimmer.

The question is not clear to me as I have no pictures to look at. But the shaver I bought was a great big disappointment to me. It is totally worthless.. will not work at all and hasn't after using two times. The only reason I did not return it... all papers and etc. had been thrown away.

I think that there is no difference. I do not see the difference in the description of both models. I do not recommend this model if you intend to use on the face for clean shaving, suitable only for beard or stubble.

Hi. This is ia GREAT question, man. I've been shaving my head for years now (not even sure if I'm grey or still brown, lol), and have used electric shavers happily. The two brands I've used most successfully are Norelco (Phillips in Europe and Canada), and Braun. I prefer the Norelco, because just every once in a while, the Braun foil crimps and the blade irritates my skull, eh? But with the Norelco floating head system, never happens. And both shave me about equally close. Now, i've found that on my face, just by the way, they are equal, but the one place the Braun wins is on the neck. Never have found the best neck shave with the Norelco. But for me, that's not a big deal, compared to how close and comfortable (and fast, because those triple heads cover good ground) the Norelco does my head and face. Now to be clear, either the Norelco or Braun is GREAT for head shaving. I just give the norelco a slight, no pun intended, edge. Hope this helps.
