I've been using the Philips 11-in-1 All-In-One Trimmer (Series 5000) for a while now, and it’s been a great grooming tool. The shave quality is impressive—the self-sharpening metal blades provide a clean and precise trim without pulling or tugging.The charging speed is decent; it takes a little while to charge fully, but the battery lasts a long time, making it great for regular use. In terms of functionality, it’s super versatile—the 11 attachments cover everything from beard and hair trimming to body grooming and even a nose trimmer, making it a complete grooming kit.It’s also easy to use, with comfortable grips and straightforward attachment changes. One of the biggest pluses is that it doesn’t cause skin irritation, even on sensitive areas, which is a huge relief. Hair removal is efficient, and it works well on both short and long hair without needing multiple passes.Overall, this trimmer is great value for money—durable, reliable, and packed with features for all grooming needs. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a solid all-in-one grooming kit

The media could not be loaded. For years I used professional clippers to cut my hair and beard. I ran an extension lead into the bathroom to sort out my hair and beard, something that I was not exactly comfortable about. Bathrooms and extension leads are not a good combination. Eventually I found some clippers here on Amazon that cut my hair brilliantly and were cordless. These are still my favorite hair clippers, but they are not very good at sorting out my beard. I have been letting my beard grow until I got fed up of it and then cutting it off and starting again.I purchased another grooming set for my beard a few months ago and it was absolutely useless. The teeth in the clipper blade were too narrow to cut my thick beard hair and it ended up in the drawer gathering dust. So I was back to growing it again and I reached the point where I was fed up of it a few days ago. I decided to try another grooming set and after a fair bit of research I settled on this one. Please see the attached video for my detailed review.The clippers are just what I was looking for. They dealt with my beard with ease. I tried cutting my hair and they will get that job done too. My only criticism is that the clipper blade is a bit narrow for hair cutting and you need way more passes to cut it properly. Not a big issue, but anyone who cuts their own hair like I do, will know the compulsion to keep going over it to make sure that you have not missed anywhere. A small blade leaves more room for error.There are a good selection of combs 3 for your hair (9, 12, 16mm), three for your beard (1, 2, and an adjustable comb 3 to 7mm) and one body hair comb (3mm). The adjustable comb for the beard is great and I reckon it will be the one I use permanently. The blade is great on its own for detailing longer areas of your beard or hairline and there is also a much narrower blade for finer detailing work. There is a shaver attachment and I tried this, it was partially successful, but not really up to the task. I think that the foil holes are too small, on finer hair I think it would be fine. The nose and ear clipper works well. Once you are finished you just rinse the clippers under the tap to clean the attachments. The set is waterproof and there is an answered question above, in the questions section, where the manufacturer says that using it in the shower is OK.The instructions are pretty poor and consist of several pages of images and no text, so no actual written instructions - poor show Philips. You are informed that the battery needs to be charged for 16 hours before use. Unfortunately, there is no indication of when the battery is fully charged or when it is running out of power - another poor choice. I will just charge mine for a few hours every other time I use them. There are 80 minutes usage time on a full charge. 16 hours is a ridiculously long time to charge a battery for nowadays! It has to be said though, that cordless grooming is a pure joy and far safer.The blades do not require oiling and are self sharpening, I have no idea how they do that, but the unit comes with a 4 year guarantee, so they must be confident that they will work that long. The clippers have a nice feel to them with a soft rubber grip. They are very quiet to use and fitting/removing the attachments and combs is easy.I like this product and am very happy to have found a grooming set that can deal with my beard for not too much outlay. After a few minutes use I was left looking considerably more handsome than I was before I started (remember, beauty is in the eye of the beholder). Mind you, my wife never seemed to notice, but at least she never asked me why I had shaved my beard off, because this time I did not have to! Not itching under my chin and around my neck anymore has left a huge smile on my face. It is good to be able to sort out my beard easily again.

In all honesty, for the amount you pay, this is a great product. A lot of people reviewed this product with their own little inconveniences. I mean all-in-all this is a sturdy little trimmer. The trimmer itself feels like very good quality, and the clippers clip in tightly. Everything works as advertised, and I'm more impressed than not. By the way, it does work while charging... not sure why mine is different??Pros:Good quality and affordableWorks better than other trimmers I've usedDynamic with multiple interchangeable piecesCuts hair neatly, incl man scaping with NO PAIN!!Edit: I do feel like I need to make something clear here in terms of personal preference. You're obviously not going to put the blade directly on your twig and berries, as I would be shocked if you could find a trimmer that is capable of this without the risk of a good pinch. You will get a good paper cut, particularly on the berries if you do this. Get the smallest attachment and you'll be good. If you need to go shorter than this, then that's on you. I personally don't like going around to my girlfriends house looking like a little boy, so I prefer a neat trim lol. Anyway, cheers.Cons:Charging could be improved - it would be ideal to have a charging standBattery life could be improved, but it's not like you're going to be spending more than an hour working your hair.Tidiness- you do have to keep your pieces in the open. You can't really figure out what's what from within the bag. But just put them in a bowl or dump them out of the bag with every use. This isn't a huge deal really...Again, the pros really outweigh the cons. The price is competitive with all the other trimmers out there. I was looking to get either a wahl or the braun. Picked Philips over everything else due to price and reviews. Very happy with my choice. Would recommend to anyone looking for a quick and easy tidy up before the start of each day. Cheers
