Best Mustache Trimmer

Wahl’s 9818:

Our first device for the day is the Wahl’s 9818 which is a very accurate and heavy duty machine as it is a 4 in 1 multi-purpose device which is essentially the ultimate grooming system for men. Whether it is for a trim, a shave or for some serious styling and detailing, we recommend this device for those users that don’t want to buy separate products each time they need a specific thing done. If you are tired of having to go to the barber whenever your side burns, stubble growth, neck, ears and goatees need some attention, we recommend this product! You receive a detail shaver, a detail trimmer, a T blade and of course a rotary trimmer for your entire grooming needs.

The blades on this bad boy are made of stain less steel and are self-sharpening which basically means that they get sharper with each usage and last a very long time. These blades also do not have to be replaced for up to 2 years of use. The Wahl’s patented blade technology ensures that there is precision based trimming whenever you desire. The blades are also adept at handling all types of hair textures and lengths which make them quire versatile as well.

The device is equipped with a universal voltage adaptability which means that even while on the go, you will be able to charge and use the device as per your desire. This is in part due to the amazing and powerful lithium ion battery that the device has been fitted with which gives it its main power.

There is just one flaw in this device that we do not like which is the fact that you cannot use it as a wet or waterproof device as it is not compatible or built for that functioning. In a world where people barely have the time to shave anymore let alone style their beards with confidence at home, this is a much needed feature that should have been included as it also makes the process more comfortable.

Pros
  • Universal voltage
  • 4 in 1 device
  • Self-sharpening blades
Cons
  • Not waterproof

Philips Norelco 7200:

Our next device is a product from the Phillips Norelco range called the 7200 and it is definitely not the only Norelco product that we will be discussing today as this Phillips range has a lot of different mustache trimmer available to the users. Talking about the 7200, it works on its innovative lift and trim technology which as the name suggests, lifts up the hair first and then makes precise cuts and trims out the hair as per the user’s need. This enables the hair to be cut off in a far more uniform and balanced way.

This device has also been fitted with self-sharpening blades which offer way more than just the ease of not having to replace the blade. This also means that the blades are perfectly designed to cut each strand of hair so cleanly that there is no chance of exposure of the blade to the skin which is great news for those with sensitive skin. This is helped along by the fact that the blades are also double sharpened. There is also an in built vacuum system which is an efficient way of ensuring all the cut off hair foes into a washable and detachable compartment as this can be otherwise very messy. The device claims to capture and contain almost 90 percent of all cut off hair.

That’s not all however, as this device also offers a wide range of almost 20 built in trimmer length settings which offer the best customization experience to the user. The amount of hair you take off the top is now completely in your hands and you can choose your desired length from 0.5 millimeters to 10 millimeters via the zoom wheel available on the product.  We also love the fact that after an hour’s worth of charge, this trimmer gives out an estimated 80 minutes of unparalleled trimming experience like no other.

Pros
  • 20 precision lengths
  • Integrated vacuum system
  • Self-sharpening blades
Cons
  • Not water proof

Remington MB4040:

Moving on, we are going to look at the Remington MB 4040 which is a fan favourite as it has some of the best features in electric trimmers that money can buy. So before we get to that, we want to get the letdown out of the way as this device is not waterproof. While we understand that being a water resistant device is far more important to shavers as compared to trimmers, we still feel as though it is a necessary feature for any electric device today as it increases the ease for the user.

Having moved on from that issue, we want to discuss the wonderful batter that this device hosts. The lithium ion battery that the MB 4040 is powered by is so strong that it runs for a total of 120 minutes after a single charge. However, a single charge is way more than your regular overnight charge and must be at least 14 hours in one go. You can use it cordless, so that’s a definite plus point for us. Talking of convenience, there are 9 precision based length settings for users so that they can decide how much length they want to keep and what they want to take off.

The blades are super sharp as they are coated with titanium and are 3 separate blades instead of just 1. The trimming range is also mentioned with this device and we are impressed as it ranges from 1.5 millimeters to 18 millimeters.

  • Wide range of trimming options
  • Titanium coated blades
  • 120 minutes of charge
  • 9 length settings
Cons
  • Not water proof design

Philips Norelco 7100:

The Phillips Norelco 7100 also known as the Phillips multi-groom is our next device for today and it is as the name suggests an all in one solution for all your hair grooming needs! The device is fitted with not one and not two but 18 precision length settings to ensure that you as the user has the hold on the amount of hair that is being trimmed. These are really accurate guides for the user so they can be a pro at home. The steel blades are also coated with chromium to give them the ultimate edge and accuracy that is a necessity while trimming a meticulously styled beard.

The blades are also fitted with rounded tips which mean that the sides will never be so sharp that you will cut yourself or irritate your skin. You also receive 8 unique tools including a body groom shaver, a hair clipping comb, a precision trimmer, a stubble comb, and a full size guard trimmer, a body trimming comb, a beard comb and a nose trimmer. The fact that the nose and body trimmers are separate also makes this such a hygienic and sanitary product as it is specialized. All the plastic attachments can also be washed with ease.

There is a special turbo power mode in this device that allows the user to power through some really thick and coarse hair growths as well to ensure that the task is completely in all cases. This also allows the user to shape and style their mustaches as they like and as professionally as their barbers. Furthermore this device gives a decent 60 minutes of charging capability with each charge and is also equipped with a universal adaptability.

Panasonic ER GB40 S:

Next, we have the Panasonic ER GB 40 S which has a state of the art adjustable zoom wheel for 19 precision length settings which can be used for shaving, trimming, styling, detailing, line ups and shading of hair so that you don’t have to make your way to an expensive professional who will cost you an arm and a leg. The zoom wheel is also so easy to sue and therefore even inexperienced users will be able to style like a pro.

 

This device offers a cordless convenience which means that you can use it for 50 minutes wherever and whenever you like without having to worry about power lags even if the battery is at its lowest percentage. The blades are also honed down to a 45 degree angle which is considered the most optimum angle for precision based trimming. The blades in question are also made from stainless steel which means that this device is not only super sharp but is also hypoallergenic for all those individuals who suffer from easily irritated or dry skin. This means that worrying about bumps, ingrown hair, redness or cuts is now a thing of the past with this device.

What’s even better is that this product has a rubberized grip so that the user won’t drop the device under any circumstances and also since the device is a 100 percent waterproof, you will also not have to worry about it slipping out of your hands. It being ergonomic also means that the grip will be so comfortable that there will be no strain on the arm or the wrist.

As we mentioned earlier, the device is completely waterproof which is a definite plus point in terms of having a smooth trimming experience. The best part, however is that it is so easy to clean out afterwards.

Pros
  • Completely water proof
  • Ergonomic design
  • Hypoallergenic
  • 45 degree angled blades

Hatteker Beard Trimmer Kit:

We love this multi-groom kit by Hatteker as we have mentioned several times in the past as well. This is partly because it is really and truly an all in one solution for avid shavers and beard groomers as it contains 4 hair combs of varying lengths which the user can use to provide a far more uniform trimming experience, an overall precision trimmer, an adjustable hair comb for trimming so that the user decides the lengths and a body groomer. These 5 attachments make this a truly versatile device which any user would love to own even if the brand isn’t as big as a Phillips or Panasonic.

The blades fitted in this device are a 100 percent self-sharpening which means that they sharpen themselves as they brush against each other during use. So you are left with sharper blades each time you use them. This means they will last for a very long time and will not dull or wear out soon. The stainless steel aspect is also a very nice addition as it is a hypoallergenic material in nature and thus can be used by individuals with really sensitive or dry skin.

The comfort part is further intensified by the fact that this device is waterproof and thus can be used in the shower or at the sink for the most convenient shaving and trimming experience ever. The blade is also therefore resistant to rust forming and means that the product will last for a very long time. The wet and dry functioning also means that the device can be cleaned up by simply rinsing it underneath some water and will make your life easier.

We aren’t the happiest with the fact that is takes 90 minutes to charge while the output is merely an hour. Although 60 minutes is not bad, we expect our devices to run as long as the amount they take to charge.

Pros
  • Self-sharpening blades
  • Completely water proof
  • 5 attachments
  • Hypoallergenic
Cons
  • Battery time not adequate

Philips Norelco Series 5100:

Back again with another Phillips Norelco series product, this time we are looking at the 5100 which is first of all such a sleek and stylish product and we are quite impressed with the quality of this device especially in this price range. There is no doubt that Phillip’s devices are a class apart and the 5100 is absolutely no exception. Fitted with self-sharpening blades, this device like many others will make sure the user doesn’t have to replace their blades for at least 2 years which is a great amount of time. The blades on this device are also double sharpened for an even faster trimming experience.

The sharp blades also means that you won’t have to worry about any hair getting pulled or stuck inside the device which can be quite painful but the 5100 cuts hair neatly every time instead of any tugging. There is also the lift and trim technology which not only guides the hair in a uniform manner but also cuts them far more efficiently than just a regular trimmer. You will never end up with an uneven cut ever again!

This device features 17 precision length settings which range from 0.4 millimeters to 13millimeters which is pretty impressive when it comes to a wide range of precision based length settings. You can access all these settings via an easy to use zoom wheel which is really user friendly.

Although you only get a 10 percent battery bump, we are still happy with the charging time as it gives out 70 minutes of uninterrupted trimming bliss after you charge it for an hour. The device is luckily fully waterproof and therefore completely wash-friendly so that you can be done with your device’s maintenance in 2 minutes.

  • Wide range of length settings
  • 70 minutes of charge
  • Self-sharpening blades
  • Lift and trim technology

Wahl 9916:

We are now onto the Wahl’s 9916 which as far as beard and mustache trimmers go, is one of the most professional and high performance devices in the business and that is because Wahl’s clippers, shavers and trimmers have been at the forefront of all technological innovation since 1919! So whether you want a good looking device or one that has the most impressive features, the 9916 might be your cup of tea. This device has self-sharpening stainless steel blades which make sure that your blades are durable and long lasting no matter how much you make use of them.

Other than that this trimmer also comes with quite an extensive array of beard combs and extra attachments which allow the user to take control over how they are going to shape style and trim out their facial hair. One thing that we would like to mention is that this device is made exclusively for professionals and therefore might not be the best for users who have no experience. That being said the device is not too difficult to maneuver as they are after all, precision based devices.

This device is also a 100 percent cordless which means that you can use it on the go and would make a wonderful travelling companion for you. In case you were worried about not having the right kind of professional attention on your next holiday, simply pack along this compact and lightweight device and keep your mustache on fleek no matter where you go.

Philips Norelco Body groomer:

Our last and final product is the Phillips Norelco body groomer which is such a versatile device that has a dual sided trimming design so that you don’t have trouble maneuvering it around your face and will be comfortable throughout. There is also a 3 dimension flexible pivot head which can be moved in quite a few directions so that it will follow the contours of your natural shape and not cut your skin or cause any damage to it.

We aren’t a 100 percent pleased with the idea that this device needs to be charged for a whole hour but give less output back and it also needs a 24 hour long charge the first time you use it.

We are however extremely happy to see that you can use this device in the shower as well as in the sink as it is completely waterproof and therefore for all those concerned users out there, lather up with your favourite foaming gel so that you don’t have to experience any cuts, razor burns, bumps, allergies or irritation due to exposure to the blade.

The device also features 5 built in length settings via the comb which effortlessly moves along the skin even if it faced with really coarse and thick hair. Other than that the blades on this device are rounded at the tip so that they don’t scratch your skin and instead are the most adept at capturing hair together to provide the smoothest and uniform trimming results.

Pros
  • Completely water proof
  • 5 built in length settings
