While it will certainly "get the job done," I found this model less effective than the (I believe) panasonic unit I had which has a circular blade that spins rather than this straight blade that goes back and forth. This one is cheap, but I would go with the panasonic.

Interesting device with two drawbacks which are sensory driven. One is that when you use it in your ear it is quite noisy. I wouldn't want to lose my hearing just to trim a little ear hair. Useable but loud. Using in the nose, it smells of light machine oil (or 3 in 1 oil) even after a year of use. Again, usable but could be better. As for actual cutting, it is pretty good but areas need to be repeated before being completely removed. Hmmm, a nose hair trimmer with an odor, and an ear hair trimmer that's too loud. Is there a better product out there on these two issues?

I bought this Conair unit for the car (!)-(yup!) because I am a wreck in the mornings, and often forget to use my "old reliable" Panasonic one at home after shaving!...Moral of this story: this Conair thing ain't even worth the cheap price. It is loud, and doesn't cut close. Like giving your ear hairs a crew cut.

After watching my Dad struggle with his scissors to clip, what he affectionately calls his 'tuffs of ear hair'. I bought him this electric clippers...now we do we hear him mumble..and fuss about how he is certain he will cut off his ear someday.....This is a great invention...it moves at lightenind speed and clips those hairs neaty...... Great Price too!

This is my second purchase of this same model. I droped my last one, over, and over again. It never, ever, broke. I owned it for over five years. I wanted a new one, considered others, but went with what works. The other models only trim the hair. This one will get all of it. Who wants little stubbies in their nose? If you have large dark hair follicles, such as myself, it may not look like trimmed hair. LOL!
