Pros & Cons
Pros
Used to keep hair tidy during lockdown. Solid, blades are exactly as advertised, precision is perfect. Doable with two mirrors and patience. It's sharp however, without a guard i have nicked myself a few times.
Really impressed. They feel really good quality, nice and sturdy. Probably more than i would want to spend but philips are a good brand.
The head is detachable and the included brush helps flick out dead hairs. Being waterproof is an extra bonus. Easy to clean and waterproof.
Battery is fantastic but does take some time to charge. Fast charging and longer run time is such a bonus. Well worth paying the extra for the better quality battery.
There are 3 combs for the face - a beard comb that one can adjust from 3mm to 7mm. A good set of combs and a nose trimmer are included. This is a good all round grooming kit.
Cons
Head is too small to use as a hair clipper. Blades are poor and head is too narrow.

Ok for beard or tache trim and noseear trimmer works well but not at all good for cutting hair

The adjustable depth cutter is very poor it leaves a gap between comb and cutter head on most settings and this gets clogged easily and quickly

You have to stop and unclog it too often

On the plus side it is easy to wash the cutter head but there is no information about regreasing the motor drive

All in all a poor design for general use

But i cannot figure out how to attach it

The number 3 trimmer attachment simply slides onto the bare metal clippers but the nose hair trimmer has a rotary drive and there is no obvious location where it attaches to the main device
