This is by far the best trimmer I (as well as my husband) have ever used. We have used so many different brands, types and this one is still the best. I purchased this one as a backup, just in case like everything else (once you begin liking something they stop selling it) it suddendly isn't being sold anymore. I want to make sure we have it around for a long time. The first one that we purchased, was bought over five years ago and it's still working perfectly!!! This backup will be tucked away just in case! I love this thing, my husband loves this thing. The trimmer worth purchasing!!!

I purchased this product based on the good reviews and I was rather disappointed. It did get the job done, sort of.

Pros:
The size is good and is easy to maneuver. Being battery-operated was nice, I didn't have to worry about the cord getting in the way.

Cons:
The plastic guard on it is very odd, it slides up and down for different lengths and it doesn't "pick up" the hairs to be trimmed. So most of the hair is still laying flat and doesn't get cut. It took MANY passes over the same areas and pulling the skin very taut, sometimes holding hairs straight up to get them to go through the guard, to get a half-way decent trim. It was still very uneven though.

Overall, this would be ok for touching up, but I won't be using it when I need to get the full "haircut". If the guards were the normal ones that snap on and off like hair clippers, this would be perfect.

(Also, do NOT use this without the guard, it will pull hairs and nick skin. Which, in my personal opinion, takes away from being a bikini trimmer. It should trim and shave.)

Love this product! The fact that it trims evenly makes you look a lot neater. It's very very safe, so you can use close to the very private areas.

I've had various cordless trimmers, all of them were rechargeable, and all of them lost power within a year or two and the cost of replacing the battery was almost as much as the trimmer.

This trimmer takes 2 standard AA batteries. I use Sanyo Eneloop rechargables which are excellent.

This trimmer is very powerful for it's small size. It fits the hand well. Many cordless trimmers I had in the past were overly bulky. It's a "bikini" trimmer, and it works great for my girlfriend, but I use it too, and we both love it.

I've trimmed my beard, my hair, and all parts and it's great. The adjustable length mechanism works very well and is removable, as are the blades which can be removed and thoroughly cleaned (and replaced if necessary).

This product is very well designed, and at an excellent price. I highly recommend it.

P.S. - The item doesn't come with batteries. As I said earlier, I highly recommend Sanyo Eneloop rechargeable batteries. They're NiMH batteries but with a new design so they keep their charge ("normal" NiMH rechargeable batteries rapidly lose their charge entirely after only a month even when they're not being used at all). Sanyo claims an unused Eneloop battery will still have up to 85% of it's charge after 1 year, and my experience with them seems to confirm that.

After 3 years of use this trimmer is still going strong and I am very happy with it. Its compactness makes it easy to maneuver in tight spots. The adjustable comb like attachment on top lets you choose between 4 different hair lengths. You may have to do more than one pass to get an even trim, but no more than any other trimmer of this type. The top comes off for easy cleaning. Overall a great product that does the job well.

Trims sensitive areas quickly without nicking skin. 5 different lenths to choose from. Attractive color and nice weight. Easy to clean and comes with a cleaning brush. Not too noisy. A carrying case would've been a plus.

I bought this shaver for my wife and she absolutely loves it. She hasn't experienced any pulling while the different settings work well and gives a clean and precise shave.

This is the best female personal shaver. You don't have to worry about this one nicking or cutting anything by accident!

Its important that people understand that this is a trimmer not shaver. If you want baby smooth, get a wax. This is a wonderful trimmer that worked quickly and efficiently. I especially recommend this to anyone with coarse hair. It works exactly as stated.

IT DOES IT'S JOB!! I CANT LIVE WITHOUT THIS TRIMMER! =)

IT'S THE BEST ONE I HAVE EVER HAD

The clipper (Definately not a shaver) does a great job, but the batteries wear down quickly. I should have paid more money and bought a chargable type.

It was a great price, keeps everything trimmed nicely. No complaints at all.

I came across this trimmer when I was looking for a panasonic shaver. I am glad I bought it. This trimmer beats shaving down there with a shaver. It is just the right size to use for the private area. Although it is not a shaver it trims pretty close to the skin. It works perfectly with an epilator for the bikini line area. I use a Braun Epilator (Braun 3370 Silk Epil SoftPerfection Epilator which is being replaced by Braun Braun 5270 Silk-épil X'elle Body System Epilator)afterward to remove the excess hair in the bikini line area which works wonder. I love the fact that this is battery operated, no need to worry about eletric shock..This is overall a good trimmer..

I bought this product after comparing similar items and reading reviews and this is a great product. My main concern was that as a woman of color, with naturally thicker and courser hair, that this wouldn't work very well. Two weeks later, I'm happy to say that this trimmer works great. It gets very close, but without any pain, irritation or bumps.

I've had this shaver for the last 3 years and it still works great. It is effective and comfortable to use. I've used it to reduce arm hair length as well as to trim my son's hair around his ears and the nape of his neck.

THank YOu! I had been wanting something like this forever, I thought it only existed in my dreams!!!!!

This trimmer is great! No more red bumps or irritation like you get from razors or hair removers. Like others said, it didn't come with a carrying pouch, but I didn't mind. I recommended it to a friend and she bought one too, and loves it!

My wife and I were looking for a workable solution for the hair down under. While her hair is not thick, it grows long very quickly. She has tried waxing - too painful - and shaving would cause a lot of bumps and irritation, even with the Shick Intutition. Her pubic region was basically living on Neosporen, Bikini Zone, and Gold Bond (not together and not in any particular order).

We also tried scissors, but that was hard to negotiate, if you will, in the more intimate of areas. At this point she was seriously thinking laser hair removal, but wasn't ready to pony up the $$ and commit to an irrevocable decision. Although, based on the other posts here and accepted fashion trends, I highly doubt that an "au natural massive overgrowth" will be back in style any time soon.

The trimmer is great. Yes, Amazon should take down the photo of the storage pouch. Yes, it won't get you totally smooth or bald. Get a wax or laser removal if you want a total smooth finish. But it is a well built TRIMMER, which is painless and easy to use. You can adjust the length you want, and you can easily work around the more sensitive and intimate southern locations.

Just take it easy around the labia minora and remember to use a mirror, assuming you're using it alone. It's more fun if you have your partner help. If you want the smooth look, use this handy device before you break out the razor and shaving cream/lotion. It makes it much easier and cuts down on irritation.

I suppose, although we have no interest in it, that you can get creative with styling your pubic hair into shapes and designs. Hey what ever works for you and/or you an your partner. Speaking of which, it works for men too.

It's easy to use, has several setting for different lengths, comes with a slipcase, doesn't make a lot of noise, and it's easy to clean. This is a wonderful trimmer for your bikini area. If you are looking to get a smooth shave, this isn't for you. It is simply a trimmer that is great for maintenance.

This trimmer is comfortable to hold, which is important for those of us with carpal tunnel syndrome, and comfortable to use. It does a very good, even job and has 5 different settings so that you can have the hair length you prefer. Those who prefer longer lengths can have it while still getting the benefits of an even trim.

As another reviewer noted, the trimmer does not come with the bag shown in the picture, which means that you get to figure out a way to keep the trimmer and the brush together. For this reason and because I would have liked the trimmer to cut just a tiny bit closer, I give it 4 stars instead of 5.

Really, though, those issues are very minor, and I'm quite happy with the trimmer. I'd definitely recommend it!

This trimmer is great. I got it after reading all the other reviews and I have to agree with everyone about how good a trimmmer it is. The only disappointment I have is I expected a carrying case for the trimmer, like on the picture, but it did not have one included.

This trimmer is sure to keep your lower pubic area neat and tidy! You can adjust the length, so you have control of how much you trim and how much you keep. It doesn't get you completely bald down there, but since I had read the reviews before purchasing this product I wasn't expecting it to. -For that I would suggest some Skintimate shaving cream and a Mach 3 razor. Oh, and some Bikini Zone as well. I personally prefer to just have mine neat and in order instead of completely shaved and so far this trimmer has kept me from having to deal with razor bumps.

Another plus is that it comes with a form showing you how you can order more parts if you need to. The top is adjustable and can come off for shaping up the edges and then it resembles regular hair clippers. (I didn't know about that until I had received it.) Anyway, if you lose that top part or drop it and accidentally step on it or something, you're gonna wanna replace just that part instead of the whole trimmer. It's a little less stressful for me if I know -before I use the product- that if I screw something up, I can just order that particular part.

All in all, I'm really glad I purchased this product!

*****Special Note About The Product's Color: THIS PRODUCT IS NOT JUST FOR WOMEN. MEN CAN BENEFIT FROM USING THIS TRIMMER, TOO. IT'S PRETTY GOOD.*****

I just got this little trimmer and it's awesome! It won't get you completely smooth, but it will go as close as possible without any damage to your skin. Very nice and easy to use.

This little trimmer is highly recommended for anyone who has ever tried to use scissors down there. It's great for trimming and even does a decent job shaving.

Two years later and it still works as well as it did the first time. I don't even remember changing the batteries (maybe once?).

During the delivery of my little girl by C-section, the doctor/nurses kept talking about how "neat" my pubic area was. They complimented the prep-nurse, who finally told them that she didn't do the prep, that I came in that way. Needless to say, I love this product and have been using it for years, both before and after the birth.

what cud i do without it!!!!

I wont' go into the nitty gritty details here...but suffice to say this little guy keeps you nice and neat...and no annoying cords get in the way.
I adore this trimmer and you'll be amazed at how well it works.

This is one of the greatest things I've learned about from a magazine article. It needs to be mentioned more often as this product is so very effective in tidying up the bikini area! If only I had known about this product sooner as it saves the pain from brazilian waxing although it doesn't completely eliminate hair, the result is pretty darn close!

I was delighted to find that the product actually met my expectations! Usually I am disappointed. That is the reason I chose to review this product. Do not hesitate to purchase this product. I have used it only once; so I am hopeful that it will continue to perform as it did the first time.

After reading some of the other reviews, I almost didn't buy this. But boy am I glad I did! It's inexpensive. It's cut my shaving time by two thirds! It's so easy. No bumps, and it's all even. Fabulous. Every girl needs this product!

I think some of the past reviewers were confused when they purchased this item and didn't notice that it says "trimmer" in the name. This trimmer will not get you shaved smooth, but will trim your hair down relatively short. It allows you to chose what length you want your bikini area hair to be. It works great! I would recommend this product for any male or female who wants to trim their pubic areas. It is easy to use and painfree.

If you are looking for a product that will remove all of the hair I highly suggest the Braun 2370 Silk-epil EverSoft Body System. It has two different interchangeable heads and works as a shaver and as a epil system.

I'm a woman who likes to stay, how shall I say it?, reletively "tidy." As much as I love staying shorn and bare, I absolutely hate shaving "down there" with a razor -- and as for a Brazillian wax? NO WAY.

That's where this little trimmer comes in. It's absolutely ideal for cropping hair relatively close to the skin, and the narrow blade width allows me to get all those delicate nooks and crannies. No, this trimmer will *not* get you completely smooth or as close as a razor -- but you will also NEVER get an ingrown hair or nasty red razorburn from this little hummer.

Side note: works great for men's private areas, too!

I bought this for my wife because she complained of using a razor. 6 months later the thing just decides to stop working for no apparent reason. I'm not going to even bother complaining, just buy a Norelco or something.

It won't make you as smooth as a bikini wax, or a shave,
but you won't have to worry about ingrown hairs or
razor bumps. A very safe way to trim a sensitive area.

I bought this product so I didn't have to use a razor on my bikini area. Well I still do. I have used it once and it didn't get any closer then my other electric shaver from Norelco. This product is fine if you just wanted to trim down the bikini area but not if you want it smooth for swim suit season.
