Review on 🚿 Showerproof Body Trimmer & Shaver Philips Norelco Bodygroom Series 7000: Includes Case and Replacement Head - BG7040/42 by Blair Foster

Revainrating 5 out of 5

There are many advantages, but unfortunately also disadvantages. Read the full review.

I really wanted to love it and I almost do. After 5 years of using the previous model with rear extension, it has finally died and it's time for a new one. I was debating between this model and the cheaper version (significantly cheaper at only $39.95) but decided to go with the more expensive one! I like it? Yes. Did I make the right decision? I think no. So far it's working well, have used it 4-5 times on multiple areas of the body. The trimmer is suitable for cutting long hair. The package includes a spare shaving head which is sure to come in handy one day. This is by far the bulkiest Philip product I have ever owned. It is quite large and uncomfortable to hold compared to other products. Why do I think a cheaper version could be better? For many reasons: It's $30 cheaper and comes with a rear mount that the more expensive version doesn't have. It's smaller and more practical. Advantages of the superior model: 1. Trimmer. However, you can use the razor blade as a trimmer; 2. Flexible shaving head. However, I didn't realize it made a difference. These are my thoughts. This is a great product but I firmly believe that the cheaper version offers better value for money. For these reasons I would not recommend this product of the cheaper version.

Pros
  • Powerful lithium battery with 80 minutes of battery life after 1 hour of full charge. Because it is rainproof, it cannot be used while charging; International Voltage: 110-220V.
Cons
  • Safety
