    Hi all

    I am hoping you can help with my query, I currently have a Babyliss istubble beard trimmer and the battery is fecked in it, barely able to get a full trim from it now..

    So as you can guess I am looking for a replacement but not sure what is the best out there at the moment.. Have seen some good reviews on the Braun Cruzer 6 Face Shaver and like the versatility that it has.

    Does anybody have any other recommendations as don't wanna really spend a fortune on one either...

    Regards
    Tommy

    I've been using this one for over a year now and find it very good: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Remington-MB320C-Barba-Beard-Trimmer/dp/B000SZ7460/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1348226400&sr=8-1

    Just look at the reviews and the price. It's a good little trimmer.

    Btw, I've had terrible luck with Philips products in relation to rechargable batteries. This one holds it's charge for months (I only use it once a week)!

    I bought a WAHL battery powered one from Argos over the weekend, 6 different length settings, various attachments for moustache and jawline, seems very good so far and the trim guard seemed to give a very consistent length unlike my last Babyliss iStubble.

    Have only used it once but happy so far, 12.99 with 2 batteries and with cheapo batteries from the 2euro shops I'm hoping it won't be too expensive to run, some of the charge times of the other ones seem mental :eek:

    I'm actually going to pick one of these (Wahl 9906-1117X Battery Groomsman Hair Trimmer) up in the next few days as a stop gap until I decide on a long term one to get. It ain't bad for €7.77 and there is plenty of stock around the country http://www.checkargos.com/index.php?productId=443/2887
