Questions & Answers
No, you will not be able to use this model without the cord; the cord is only used to charge the groomer; you will not be able to use it without it.
To put it another way, if you're skilled with small tools and soldering, you certainly could. However, there are a lot of small plastic parts that need to be reassembled in a specific way, and it isn't worth the effort after you buy the batteries and spend the time doing the work, so I would recommend that you buy a different unit.
starts with 1 and goes up to I believe the number is eight. I used to have one that went from 1 to 3, 5, and 7, but this one has all of the sizes in between. I really like this product, and I've owned a lot of beard trimmers in the past. Also, it has a long battery life.
No, there isn't a vacuum, but some cut hairs have become stuck in the device and must be moved. Others end up in the sink, on the counter, or wherever they happen to be.
Selected User Reviews For Remington MB-200 Titanium Mustache and Beard Trimmer, Black
That was a fantastic number of 300. My old trimmer did everything I needed it to do, was tough, had a long battery life, and could even be powered by the charger when the battery died. I adored that thing so much that when it died after six years, I immediately switched to the newer MB-series. As a replacement, 200. Unfortunately, by comparison, this Remington trimmer is a complete shambles. br>br>When brand new, it could only hold a charge for a few days tops even when unused, which isn't great. It couldn't even hold a charge overnight after less than a year, and had to be charged for several hours just to get a single use out of it. After a few more months, the motor can no longer run at more than half speed and is unable to complete the task at hand. To their credit, the trimmer's plastic hinge for popping up the blade is more solidly built than the 300, but that doesn't matter if the trimmer doesn't work. br>br>For the life of me, I can't understand why they think it's a good idea to prevent corded operation with such a bad battery and motor. Obviously, planned obsolescence is more profitable than making things that simply work (especially in the case of computers). on low-cost items) But this was a particularly poor performance, and I'm left with the impression that Remington values short-term profit over customer loyalty, and I'm unlikely to buy anything from them again.
I wish I could give this trimmer more than one star because it's fantastic—it's simple and easy to use (no fiddling with a dozen clunky attachments) and does exactly what it's supposed to do. I like it so much that I've bought four of them in the last five years, despite knowing how bad the batteries are. br>br>The one I have now was purchased in June 2018 and is already effectively dead; It can charge for the entire day and then run for about 10 hours. 15 seconds at half power before running out of steam. I only used it for about six months. Remington, how are you? This is unacceptably bad. br>br>The absolute WORST part about this trimmer, and what screams that these things are designed to fail, is that it can't be powered directly by the AC adapter—the battery MUST be charged for the trimmer to work. What happens when the world's worst batteries are combined with an intentionally underdeveloped AC adapter? Trimmers that won't turn on and become useless paper weights. You can see where Remington is trying to go with this. It's such an obvious and shameless money grab on their part. br>br>Anyway, I keep coming back because I love this trimmer and it's just cheap enough that I can justify buying it even though I know it'll die in less than a year, but Remington deserves every penny. Here's a five-star review. Let's hope that the two-year third-party warranty is worth the couple of bucks, and that when my current trimmer dies, I'll be able to get a replacement for free.
This one should be avoided. The first review, which received five stars, is as follows: It feels great in the hand, all of the buttons are solid, and the blades do their job by locking in and not slipping back. It was purchased for my beard and mustache, but I've also used it on my hair. Remington, you did a fantastic job! br>br>34 days later, a second review: The trimmer doesn't seem to be charging. dead. Remington, you did a fantastic job. In 2017, will there be any battery issues? br>It was given back to me. It's a shame because it's otherwise a fantastic trimmer.
Please don't be fooled by the price. br>br>Contrary to popular belief, there are a number of disadvantages to using this product. I have to buy a new one every 18 months because it loses its ability to hold a charge after a while; even fresh off the charger, you can hear the motor slowing down within 90 seconds of use. OVERALL: br>br> Given the amount I've spent on more expensive trimmers that weren't even close to as good, it's completely worth buying one every 18 months at this price.
Well, it turned out to be a lot bigger than I had anticipated, but I decided to keep it anyway. I was looking for a small personal trimmer similar to the one I bought in 2005, which used AAA batteries. It was similar in appearance to this one, but smaller and lighter in color. It did go through a lot of batteries over the years, but it lasted for a very long time (9 to 10 years!). )br>br>This Remington rechargeable one was purchased on August 24, 2017 and has already been thrown away. On July 7, 2018, I finally gave in and bought a new trimmer to replace it, but it only lasted a year. I'm really disappointed, and I'm not sure I'd trust a trimmer with non-human hair. Rechargeable battery can be replaced once more. I ended up replacing it with a Conair red corded beard (ConairMAN Beard). Mustache Trimmer with 3 All-In-One Blades Combs for specific purposes). It wasn't even used very frequently, perhaps three times per month. No matter how long it was on the charger the last time I turned it on, it would die in 3 to 5 seconds. It wouldn't even run while still plugged in; it would die just as quickly. It wasn't dropped, and it hadn't come into contact with water, so I'm not sure why it would just stop working after so little use.
This product has been in my possession for a little more than two years. For the first six months, the trimmer worked perfectly. 9 months. After that, the battery lost its ability to hold a charge and was completely dead after 48 hours of being unplugged. If I want to use it, I must charge it the night before so that it is ready to use the next morning. I still use it, but only on occasion because it necessitates a bit of forethought. br>br>The fact that the 'on' switch disables the 110V input is my biggest disappointment. This means it only uses the battery while running, so you won't be able to plug it in and go. br>br>Poor battery life degrades an otherwise excellent product; if it could bypass the battery when plugged in, it would easily be worth 3 or 4 stars.
