I had an electric trimmer. The plastic attachments for the various shaving grades were fixed at each end with the smallest possible fragment of plastic. So as you’re going over the curves of your skin, those tiny plastic fragments were guaranteed to break before long, rendering the entire trimmer useless, even though it technically still worked. Ordering replacements, which were guaranteed to break, was more expensive than buying an entire new trimmer.
Switched to a different brand and no problems whatsoever.
There’s no way a group of people working for Philips sat around designing that shit and didn’t know it was designed to break. Planned obsolescence. Fuck Philips.
I’ll try to remember to check this when I get home. I forgot what my current brand is. But the plastic attachments are designed in such a way that I have zero concern about them breaking.
Philips trimmers SUUUUUUUUCK.

Howdy, i was about to invest in a Philips trimmer, and now I’m wondering what brand you recommend?
As someone who has used a few Philips trimmers, my experience is that they are decent especially for the price. I usually buy cheaper stuff
