Customer Reviews Philips Norelco T980 Turbo Vacuum Trimmer

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Best shaver ever
This product is awesome ive spent so much money on crappy shavers cause im always rocking a beard. This shaver keeps your girlfriend from yelling at you about hair every where and never loses power or charge it is the most useful product i have bought in years



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Very Impressed!!!
So I said to the woman I can either get the 15$ beard trimmer or one that is more expensive but is supposed to have a vacuum in it. I got the T980 and I'm really really impressed. I trimmed the Fuzz and it made no mess whatsoever. Amazing!



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Doesn't do what I need - returned it the next day
I bought this to replace a 4 year old Norelco G390 which served me reasonably well for the past 4 years till its NiCd battery died (bought at a "warehouse" store for just under $20).
There are over 600 reviews with an average of 4 stars and I thought "how can 600+ people be wrong?" so I bought it.

Dumb idea.

I won't go through all the pros and not even all the cons so you'll need to read other reviews, I'll just focus on why I simply can't use it and had to return ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Big Improvemements over older types
Main downsides: Made in China and has non replaceable battery, no removable hair chamber-only small door opens and have to shake whole trimmer over garbage can to get hair out.

Pros: Locks guide into place much better, more comfortable to use, turbo mode cuts longer beards a little better and gets more of cut hair into holding chamber- though by no means all of the hair gets collected, seems better built all around vs older version, travel case is nice enough and has slightly better instructions ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Best trimmer I've ever used.
I've worn a beard for 15 years, and have tried everything from full sized Oster clippers to a variety of trimmers. None compare to this item. This makes facial hair maintenance a snap. The built-in vacuum keeps the trimmings in a chamber and not all over the vanity. Can't recommend this highly enough.
