What customers say about "Key Specs"
Braun BT3020 Beard Trimmer
  • It is very easy to clean, with most elements easily rinsed under running water.
  • The shaver is still working very well for me. The blades seem to have stayed very sharp, there is no drop-off in battery life, and this thing is durable!
  • The razor can be washed under running water and the head can be easily removed so that you can also remove hair and bar staples that come close to the engine easily.
  • It can be cleaned under running water and, according to the Braun description, the charge will last up to 60 minutes of trimming on an eight hour charge.
  • I have thick, coarse, Italian hair and while the blade may be sharp for other, it proved to be mediocre for cutting my dry facial hair.
Philips Norelco MG3750/60 Multigroom All-In-One Series 3000
  • Very sharp blades and cutting performance.
  • The blade was sharp and run for a long time.
  • Great body quality and sharp blade with just the right attachments.
  • The metal blades are washable which makes it very easy to clean.
  • I like taking the blade off and washing it with water is great.

  • The great variability is nice to let you check out exactly which length you prefer for your beard at any given time.

What customers say about "Power"
Braun BT3020 Beard Trimmer
  • The battery lasts a long time, and I rarely have to charge it.
  • The charging cable is relatively long (180 cm) so that the device can also be used during the emergency during charging.
  • "Functions" as designed (the battery works, the motor runs, the buttons click along).
  • Useful that you can use it while it's charging for those time you forget to charge.
  • The 10 hour charge time is likely due to the use of a Nickel–metal hydride battery instead of a lithium ion battery. That isn't necessarily a bad thing because NiMH batteries can last up to twice as many charges versus Li-ion ones, despite longer charge times if you're looking for longevity.
Philips Norelco MG3750/60 Multigroom All-In-One Series 3000
  • It's a great product specially it has has a great battery life
  • Its a nice trimmer with nice charging battery back up.
  • I enjoy that it is rechargeable rather than using batteries.
  • I like that it has a rechargeable battery so I am not tethered to the wall.
  • The battery doesn’t hold a very long charge but it works great.
