hey it cuts hair [SEP] this purchase was to replace a wahl trimmer that died suddenly after a couple of years it had done a good job but the feature i liked best about it was the built in vacuum stopped my wife from complaining about a trail of hair on the sinkafter a quick look thru the internet i soon discovered this vacuum feature was a rarity then i found the turbo here on amazon it has the vacuum and a extra turbo function that your first time you will think it is going to pull off all the hair well it does not but the motor does get louder in turbo and i am sure it also eats up more battery power it is a well made piece of machinery that feels good in your hand the heigh adjustment click in nicely the cover over the blades ride nicely over your face but this is something you will have to use the included cleaning brush to wipe out hair that will stick in it is nicks and cranniesthere is a second blade that is used for finer detailing like around your mouth it works well and enables you to keep the hair out of your mouth funny thing about the attachments the first few times you change them or remove the hair catcher they seem to be difficult to remove but soon they pop off easily suppose it is just a matter of learning were to pulli do wish it came with a stand for the razor it comes with a pouch that you can store a everything including the charger but somehow i get the feeling norelco though us guys with beards travel a lot i do not and would have like a place to sit the where i can grab it for a quick trim
