Panasonic Facial Hair Trimmer for Sensitive Skin, Unisex Detailer with Flexible Head, Gentle on Acne, Includes 2 Eyebrow Attachments, Wet/Dry - ER-GM40-K (Black)

I bought one of these trimmers a long time ago for very little money, and I got over a decade of service out of it before it gave out. Then I made the mistake of trying a different brand of trimmer, which died on me within a few months, so now I've purchased this excellent trimmer again, and it's working beautifully, just like the first one did. It comes with a spare blade, which you likely won't need for a number of years. It also comes with eyebrow attachments, which seem to work well, though I'm no expert in trimming eyebrows. All in all, a real bargain and a fantastic performer!

I had purchased this in 2016 and it was no longer working after 8 years. I tried another product (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CCW34WR6?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_1&th=1), but that did not work well for me.I purchased another 'Panasonic Women’s Facial Hair Remover and Eyebrow Trimmer' and I'm very happy with the ease of use and results.

I absolutely hate tweezing, and no one is going near my face (or any one sensitive body part) with hot wax. I figured if this gadget worked, it would save me a lot of time and swearing. I was right about the time, and the swearing was targeted solely at the outer packaging.Pros:- Easy to use.- Comfortable in the hand, yet mall enough to fit in a purse or cosmetic bag.- Completely painless. And it is unlikely you're going to cut yourself if you use a little common sense.- Does exactly what it is supposed to do pretty darn well -- that is, it trims eyebrows and removes fine facial hair. It is NOT intended as a nose hair trimmer or bikini shaver and explicitly says so in the instructions. (OK, the instructions are awful for the most part, but that part was very clear.)- Battery life really isn't that bad.Cons:- The packaging. I realize that shouldn't have anything to do with the actual product, but when it takes 15 minutes, a box cutter and heavy cussing to get into a package, it affects product perception. If Panasonic has put half the structural integrity into the product as the stupid molded package, I should be using this thing come doomsday. Also, the "soft case" for the attachments is a joke. Count on finding something else to keep those in.- The instructions are, indeed, lacking. There are plenty of pictures, but they aren't very helpful. It still wasn't very clear how the blade head is changed (Hint: The blade is NOT the WHOLE head piece, but two parts lengthwise that snap together.)- It feels cheap. And it probably won't survive a drop to a tile or concrete floor without the case cracking.Conclusion: Given the flimsy materials used for the body and attachments, I wouldn't pay $20 for it, but I got it for $12 and, after using it a bit, I think $10-12 is a fair price for it. If you don't push it past what it is designed to do, it works fine and is much faster, easier and safer (and less painful) than other facial hair removal methods.

This thing has been going strong for years. I’m lazy and rarely use it, but when I feel like sprucing up I’ll use it. Works well on peach fuzz and brows. Doesn’t snag, doesn’t hurt, doesn’t cut you, doesn’t break you out, can use everyday if you feel like it. I’m satisfied with the product and have repurchased when I lost the other one.

Realized that I've had mine for 9 years before it died! I wipe the blade with an alcohol wipe. Dependable product that works well and is gentle

After years of using a Philips brand trimmer that worked great for peach fuzz on my face the blade got dull and I needed a new one but it had been discontinued. I bought a Wahl trimmer and it did not work well on fine hair. I had to go over the same area repeatedly to get the hair off. It seemed like it was made for courser hair. It was much louder than my previous trimmer and the metal casing was always loose. So I bought this Panasonic trimmer and it works great! It's quieter and gives a closer shave. Not sure I understand the point of the flexible head, I was afraid I wouldn't like that but it isn't a problem. So if you're looking for a trimmer for very fine hair this one is great. It also works on eyebrow hair.

I recently tried out the Panasonic Women’s Facial Hair Remover and Eyebrow Trimmer with Pivoting Head, and my experience has been a bit mixed. While the device has its strengths, there are some noticeable shortcomings that affected my overall satisfaction.Starting with the positives, the pivoting head is a thoughtful feature that allows for more precise and comfortable grooming, especially in tricky areas like the eyebrows. The design is sleek and ergonomic, making it easy to hold and maneuver.However, the performance of the trimming left something to be desired. The device's effectiveness on finer facial hairs was reasonable, providing a smooth result. Yet, when it came to coarser or thicker hairs, I found that the trimmer struggled and required multiple passes to achieve the desired outcome. This inconsistency in trimming performance was disappointing.The inclusion of two gentle attachments was appreciated, as it allowed for a more customized grooming experience. However, even with these attachments, I experienced some irritation and redness after use, which was unexpected.One of the standout issues was the device's battery life. Much like other reviewers have mentioned, the battery seemed to drain quickly, requiring frequent recharges. This can be quite inconvenient, especially if you're in the middle of a grooming session.In summary, the Panasonic Women’s Facial Hair Remover and Eyebrow Trimmer has its pros, such as the pivoting head and ergonomic design. However, the inconsistent trimming performance, irritation, and poor battery life are noticeable drawbacks. While it might work well for finer facial hairs and eyebrows, it falls short when dealing with coarser hairs. If you're willing to overlook these issues, it might still serve its purpose for specific grooming needs.
