“I’ve had a different experience with the Wahl Stainless Steel Lithium Ion+ trimmer. It does a decent job for both beard and hair trimming, but finding the right length without a comb can be tricky. It doesn't have the exact 0.5mm setting, so I had to use a 1mm comb and then just trim a bit closer manually. However, the comb attachments are really versatile,”

“I have the wahl stainless steel 2.0 lithium ion battery. This thing has lasted me many years but over time I lost multiple guards, some attachments broke because of my carelessness and the edge of the trimmer chipped so it’s missing one tooth lol. The battery is amazing I could still use it if I wanted to and works perfectly.”
