Vacuum Beard and Stubble Trimmer (Vacuum to catch Trimmed Hair, Titanium Blades, Adjustable Comb, Detail Blade for Styling and Edging, Lithium Power, Cordless, 60-Minute Runtime) MB6850

I've had one of these Remington Vacuum Trimmers for years. My last one survived for many years, but eventually needed replacing. This latest model works just as well. It's such a shame that Remington have gone for the silly lime green colour on the vacuum section. It makes the trimmer seem rather juvenile when compared to the last model, and the rest of their product lines. If you are concerned that the vacuum feature is a gimmick, it is not. If you use this trimmer regularly, you can trim your beard, and even use the trimmer as hair clippers, as the vacuum is strong enough to retail hair trimming while inverted. You just need to remember to empty the vacuum chamber regularly. If you try and do a more significant cut/trim in one go, you will overload the vacuum chamber, to the point where clippings will fall out when you invert the trimmer. But stick to that one simple rule, and you can keep your hair and beard trimmed without a clipping in sight. The only thing I do not like, is where the vacuum exhaust is. It's right where you would naturally want to hold the trimmer while using it as hair clippers. But my previous Remington was the same, so I am used to passing it from hand-to-hand, to avoid covering the exhaust port. There is something quite satisfying about leaving the bathroom, with a trimmed beard and hair, without needing to brush hair from either yourself or the bathroom floor. Recommended.

To summarise; + Vacuum system works pretty well (probably the main reason i opted for this over other options) + Blades are effective and cut with ease. No need for oiling is also a good headache saved + Feels nice in the hand and looks pretty good. + Handy storage bag comes with it to keep shaver, charger and additional tools in one place - The stubble length adjustment isnt ideal and I would much prefer a digitalised versionlike my older Babyliss istubble models. It can be hard to adjust to your chosen length and you need very good eyesight to be able to see what length it is currently set on. So essentially if you don't mind the fiddly nature of adjusting lengths , then it is a great trimmer with an effective vacuum to contain the usual mess that arises when trimming.

Most of this type of product have little information about the size of the cutting heads and I was looking for something that was smaller than the usual hair clippers and decided to take a chance on this. I am glad that I did because I feel it works really well, including the vacuum collection feature. The instructions claim that it collects up to 95% of clippings if the 6mm length is selected. That is the length that I currently use and I would say the claim is pretty accurate, with only a very few stray clippings falling into the sink. The main cutting head is about 3 cm wide (the unit itself only slightly wider), but you also get a separate detail head included which is 2 cm wide. The comb attachment works well enough and offers cutting lengths of 2,3,4,5,6,8,10,12,16 & 18 mm. It doesn't take too long to charge and seems to last for the claimed hour of cordless use. I am really impressed with this and hope it lasts, but with a 3+1 year guarantee, it should give value for money.

These clippers are excellent - I especially wanted some with a vacuum-collection chamber, to minimise mess everywhere when I trim my beard. These do the job admirably - and the unexpected bonus of an interchangeable, finer trimming-head makes it a lot more versatile in use! I’m very pleased with these!

If I was recommending I would recommend for the head or if you wanted to use it on the move to clean up while short on time. It would not be what I would choose for my main shaving razor, and at the price I'm not sure that it would make sense. There are much cheaper, much better razors that don't vacuum. The vacuum on this item does work very well, but the addition of it to the shaver seems to make the shaver very difficult to use in the areas around the jaw and under the nose (have to do this with a scissor). In general the size and shape of the razor doesn't work well for shaving the face and it makes it considerably more work (wouldn't be at all sure there is an actual gain on time by saving on the clean up). The noise of the vacuum wouldn't bother you one bit. Battery life is middling, I get about two shaves of my face and head from one charge ( and part way through a third) If I was buying again I would probably go for a razor without a vacuum but with a slimmer design.

This must be the worst shaver that I have ever owned. It takes ages to trim your beard and keeps missing bits that you have to go over and over again. I chose Remington because I have the hair cutter which I can't fault at all but this is just rubbish and a waste of money. I have the Philips One Blade for delicate areas which does a much better job than this but it is not designed for large areas. The vacuum design on it is quite good but I think this gimmick takes the power from providing a good cut as it just didn't seem to cut very well and kept dragging the beard which was a little painful, (And yes, the battery was fully charged) I got this on offer, £34.99 from £79.99 but as a result of the very poor performance I just can't recommend this at all. I can't return it unfortunately due to the returns policy, therefore it is completely useless and I will not be using it again. I was going to try it on my cats for trimming their long coats in spring but I can't see them putting up with the pain it would cause them. Very disappointed with Remmington.

I had been using a Philips BT7500 vacuum trimmer for the past five years, but since two have failed and are now discontinued, I decided to try this Remington trimmer. The main reason I didn't go for this trimmer before is that there's no mention of it cutting shorter than 2mm, and I needed something that cuts to at least 0.5mm, like the Philips. Well, I'm pleased to see that the bare blade cuts to around 0.3 to 0.4mm, which is excellent. The suction of the vacuum is also better than the Philips. You can feel the suction on your face when using it, and there's no evidence of hair in the sink. The quality of this trimmer seems similar to the Philips, but the zippered case is superior to the drawstring pouch included with the Philips. I use this in combination with the excellent Philips OneBlade. The OneBlade provides a clean and close shave allowing you to trim and shape stubble, so you don't need a wet razor. Overall, I'm impressed with this Remington trimmer and highly recommend it.

This is an ok set of clippers but I had one from a competitor that stopped making it that used a similar technology of sucking up the clipped hair, this bucket sits at the front so it makes it harder to have precise lines, it's more for cutting back a long beard to shape then making lines.

Le seul que nous avons trouvé qui collecte le désordre. Nous sommes satisfaits du rasoir et du vendeur.

Good material, minimum hair falls out of fan suction, average motor noise, and excellent battery life

Works well enough.. onlyba tiny hair or two escape rather than having the whole sink covered in beard hair. Close enough shave. I dont use the heads so no comment on those.

Ik gebruik de tondeuse om mijn hoofd te scheren. Dit gaat perfect! Lengtes zijn goed af te stellen tot zelfs tot 0,1-0,2 mm. Alle haren worden opgezogen en het apparaat kan na het scheren makkelijk worden schoongemaakt. Hiervoor had ik ook een Remington en die is ruim 8 jaar meegegaan en met name de batterijcapaciteit. Aanrader!

Beard comb mechanism was broken upon arrival. You cannot choose length of trim. Decided to keep it as I always trim at shortest length. Messaged seller. No response. Trimmer itself works good.
