This trimmer works great. The guard lock is a fantastic idea - will avoid accidents ( dont ask how I know !! - LOL)

I've had the A105 for just over a year now. I like the lock on the length control that didn't exist on my previous version. I'm giving it a 3 because it looks like they sacrificed the reliability of the on/off switch for the lock. It is necessary to hold my thumb on the on off switch to keep it on.

Dead after one year. This was a bit pricey for what I needed to start but the reviews were good and I wanted something easy for my daily cleanups. Pros were that the blade is soft for sensitive skin. Connie's it was very expensive and stopped working.

I never write reviews, but for something this bad I dealt I should warn others. I was in need of a new trimmer to replace a 17 year old Norelco that can still work when corded, but the cord is falling apart and therefore not reliable for much longer. This looked like a good option, but it is utterly worthless. It struggled to cut my beard hair, taking me almost an hour to do my regular trim routine, which is to cut it from about 10mm length to 5mm. The Norelco could do it in 20 minutes or so. For comparison, I have one of those $10 AA battery micro trimmers that has no problem trimming my mustache hairs, but this thing somehow can’t seem to handle it. And even though this thing wasn’t cutting anything, it was still managing to clog left and right. It came with a travel case, but it was also a joke. It will literally only hold the trimmer, and not the charger, cable, or other attachments. Save your money and buy something better, as I will now have to do.

Doesn't trim as well as other trimmers I have. I have used it for several months. No, it doesn't get better. MUST remove trimmer length attachment frequently to remove built-up hair. Attachment tines are sharp-ish and rather annoying. Length dial just fell off for no reason yesterday. Easy to replace - but now the 'stops' are missing: turning it up to, say, 10, is possible, but the lightest touch on the top of the trimmer (which of course happens when one uses it) drops the attachment from 10 to 0 immediately. Disappointed.

I am experiencing repeated issues with this product breaking into multiple components after being dropped. It seems inevitable that the attachments will be dropped during normal household use. It is disappointing that a well-known brand is producing a product that appears unable to withstand everyday handling.

The teeth on the beard attachment broke within a few weeks during normal use. I only bought this for my beard. Great device but useless since most important attachment broke. I'll try to get it replaced by

I received the trimmer and it works okay. My biggest gripe is that I just spent over half an hour on the phone and emailing pictures to Braun's customer service. However, there's no resolution. They got my phone, address, and email, only to say they can't send me a replacement stand.

Disappointed. I tried to trim my winter beard down to 10mm(around a %233 length), but it failed to do so. I believe the attachment was inhibiting my beard hair from contacting the blade. I had some luck with the lowest setting on the 10.5mm attachment. I ended up trimming my beard to 7mm, less than desired. It did an OK job, but took way too long to get the job done. The charging system is proprietary. It should be USBC.

I'm pretty disappointed with the trimmer. There are two main reasons for this. This first and most important is that is just doesn't trim well. My Panasonic that I was going to replace would trim my beard and moustache in 1-2 passes. The Series 9 Braun took so many that I actually gave up and went back to the Panasonic on the first use. The second is that it uses a new charging port. I got it initially with the expectation of being able to use the same charger and my razor and toothbrush, which would have simplified travel a lot. Braun has unfortunately decided to use a different charging port for this one. The charging port is a small issue compared to the poor performance of the product, though. Very disappointed given how much I like my other Braun products. Also, the 100 day guarantee is nearly worthless. You pay to send it back, they'll think about it for 2 months, then send you a prepaid debit card you'll never be able to use all the funds on. That's the part that stings the most. It's also disappointing it's not made in Germany like my series 9 toothbrush and razor. The trimmer does look nice, for what it's worth.
