OMG - This is, like, so crappy!!!

Now before I sound any more like a teenage girl, here's the bottom line. The Bodygroom is a waste of money. I have never written negative reviews for anything and it's a shame that Philips had to break that spell. I wish I had kept my receipt so I could return it, but being that I've never been disappointed by neither Philips or Norelco, I threw it out. I simply cannot understand the good reviews on this site. They must be somehow connected to the brilliant people that put out the ad campaign. Who knows.

Back to the product: Looks nice and that's about it. It barely cuts anything, when it does, hair gets trapped between the blue plastic attachment which means that you constantly have to take it off and rinse it. That would sort of be ok, if the whole head (cutter blades) didn't come out as well. Even with the lightest touch, it still feels like you're breaking it and I'm sure one of these days it will surely do just that. Here's the worst part, even if advertised as working fine in the shower, it will hurt as hell, as your hair will get caught in it, so every 5 seconds you'll be going 'ouch' 'ouch' 'ouch' You get my point. So try it on dry hair - doesn't hurt as much but still doesn't cut. The design is itself very poor. If you look at the blades under the very fragile (sic!) foil, they're basically vertical semi-circle blades at a moving left-right-left at a very fast speed. Well, they're not fast nor sharp enough. Again, it will catch your hair. And it will hurt. The attachments are also a joke. The numbers don't really correspond the ones at the barber's, but they go up to a 5!!! Now if I can't really cut medium length hair from my sensitive areas with a 1, what the hell am I gonna do with a 5? Surely this was meant for Geico's cavemen.

I could go on and on. Do yourself a favor, keep the receipt, or even better spend $20 on a Conair trimmer that will cut 20 times better. This is just plainly bad. Really bad. And if any Philips people are reading this, I want my money back. Pretty please.
