Review on MANGROOMER Essential Nose Hair Trimmer by Priscilla Tran

Mangroomer Nose Hair Trimmer

*UPDATED below* I first bought a Wahl nose hair trimmer but it broke pretty quickly. Not very strong but cuts hair well. The quality was below average and the top kept bouncing so I decided to try something else when it died. Then I bought a Panasonic Panasonic ER421KC trimmer. The quality and performance was much better than the choice, and the Panasonic had better build quality. But I was very disappointed that he only worked for about a year and a half before he died too. I bought this nose hair trimmer from Mangroomer a few months ago. Quality is similar to Panasonic but doesn't fare as well. If I move slowly enough, the hair will be cut. Otherwise, Mangrumer likes to pull his hair. Not excited yet (after 2-3 uses). It's not terrible, but bad enough that I decided to write this review for the 3 trimmers I've used. Let's see how long the mangroomer lasts. But based on the features, I have to say that the Panasonic is the best I've ever used. Of course, I'm still very disappointed that it didn't last longer. After only +/- 18 months of use (and twice a month at most) I was expecting to get more of it. I'd love to try something different (if/when Mangrumer dies), but I don't see anything else on Revain that gets reasonably good reviews right now. *UPDATE* The Mangroomer has only been used once and is now in the toilet bag. I have no idea if it still works or not and I have no desire to ever try again. Now that I've had a Philips Norelco NT9110 for about 2 years and recently remembered my previous review, I decided to upgrade. This is by far the best of the 4 trimmers. I read back then about other people having problems with water or rust or something, so I always made sure to blow out any water after cleaning. I never wear a hat either. Instead, I kept it in an open area where the blades won't be damaged and any remaining moisture can evaporate. I've never had a problem. I've noticed this trimmer before, but something about the design put me off buying it. For some reason I felt that other rotor designs would/should be better, but they aren't. The Philips Norelco cuts as close as any other trimmer, it never pulled out a single hair and never cut me (which was an issue with this design and I tucked/pushed it into all areas as needed). If something happens to it, I will buy it again. I hope this is helpful to someone.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • No Instructions
