Shoppers can save £40 on a popular Philips OneBlade trimmer designed to handle everything from longer facial hair to short stubble. The Philips OneBlade Pro 360 Face and Body Electric Beard Trimmer is available for £59.99, down from £99.99, on Amazon.
Features and design
Philips' OneBlade technology uses a fast-moving cutter that operates at 12,000 movements per minute, alongside rounded tips and a glide coating designed to make shaving more comfortable. The 360 blade flexes in different directions to maintain contact with the skin, while the adjustable comb offers 20 length settings for managing everything from short stubble to a longer beard.
Its dual-sided blade can also be used to create precise edges, while the stainless steel blade is designed to last for up to four months before needing replacement, depending on usage. The OneBlade trimmer is completely waterproof, so it can be used wet or dry, with or without shaving foam, and rinsed under the tap for easy cleaning.
Alternative options
Another option is the Braun Body Groomer Series 7 for £97.49 at Boots. It comes with a body groomer, three combs, an attachment, a pouch and a cleansing brush. The site says it is equipped with SmartLight technology which helps with thorough shaving and intimate grooming, so there are 'no missed spots, even in tricky areas'.
At Currys, there is the Babyliss Titanium Men 11-in-1 Multi Trimmer for £30.99, down from £33.99. This one offers five beard combs and is suitable for body hair and sideburns with detachable cutting heads.
Customer reviews
The Philips OneBlade Pro 360 Face and Body Electric Beard Trimmer has racked up a 4.3 out of five-star rating from almost 2,000 reviews on Amazon. One person said: "Big upgrade from my other Philips OneBlade, I don't touch anything else. Bought it on sale, too. Big step up from the original Philips OneBlade, the battery life is ridiculously good! So far, so good! Great purchase! They just keep getting better! Recommend for sure if you're a fan of the OneBlades!"
Another added as part of a longer review: "Very good, it does a great job of getting close to the skin but not irritating it." A third commented: "Brilliant once you get used to it. Always had Philips products and this is highly recommended."
Some removed a star, however. For example, one person said: "It does give a close shave, but being a very hairy guy, it takes a while to cover the areas I need to, and it's not as close a shave as the adverts make out." Another added: "If you want a close shave quickly, it's brilliant. For edging and detailing, (it's) not that great."
The Philips OneBlade Pro 360 Face and Body Electric Beard Trimmer is available from Amazon.
