Remington DT-1000 Moustache and Beard Razor Shaped Detail Trimmer

I decided to purchase this item after our WAHL Detailing, Battery Trimmer died. I thought since this item had a few more attachments it would be a good deal. I unfortunately was very wrong. This item does not have the power to trim my boyfriends goatee. I have the hardest time getting it to cut any of his facial hair. I have tried changing the batteries, etc, and it still does not have the power to do what I want it to do. I wish I would have just replaced the original item with the same item. I strongly wish I would have never purchased this item. I would not buy this item again if I knew it was going to not have the power to do anything, as it was a waste of my time and money. Now I am out the money I paid for this and the money I am going to have to spend to replace it. I will just go back to the old faithful WAHL Detailing, Battery Trimmer because I know that it works. If I were anyone I wouldn't waste my money on this item because its not worth the time or effort.

Pros: Light-weight. Pen-like feeling, so it's easy to maneuver. Has a 3 level trimming adapter. Comes with 3 different trimming blades in different sizes. Batteries last pretty long. Cons: If you don't hold it perpendicular to your skin, it might grab it a little, but it pinches, it doesn't really hurt. It's bad quality, so it feels like it will break easily, but 2 years so-far and it still works fine. Still not as thin as it could have been for better visibility and control, but so-far the thinnest I've found. Suggestions: Hold it as perpendicular to your skin as you can. Use the smaller blades if possible, they are more quiet and do not pinch your skin as much if you accidentally put the razor parallel to your skin. Do not take apart any part of it, they will break if you try.

Once one reaches a certain age facial hair grooming takes on extra dimensions. That being said, I also have a pretty good sized mustache that requires regular grooming or else it takes over my face. I was looking at several more expensive sets when this one caught my eye. I thought that at the very least I could use it for traveling. Much to my surprise it is a very versatile trimmer that I now use every day. The assorted, interchangeable heads makes it like having 4 trimmers instead of one. I have had it for several months now and it seems to hold up well. I am very happy with my purchase.

I've had two of these Remington DT-1000's. The first one quit after a few months. (Yes, the batteries were inserted correctly.) I liked the way it worked so I bought another one, and kept this one outside the bathroom in case the humidity was affecting it. But the second one quit in less than a month. Needless to say, I'll be buying some other brand now.
