Oster Classic 76 Review: the tank of hair clippers that actually feels worth the money

☆☆☆☆☆ ★★★★★

After using the Oster Classic 76 Burgundy set for regular home haircuts, I’d sum it up like this: it’s a professional tool that actually makes sense at home, but only if you’re going to use it often and don’t mind a bit of maintenance. The cut quality is clearly better than the usual plastic-guard k...

Braun Series 9 Pro 9465cc Review: pricey foil shaver that finally handles tough beards

☆☆☆☆☆ ★★★★★

The Braun Series 9 Pro 9465cc is a high-end shaver that actually behaves like one in day-to-day use. It gives a very close shave, handles 1–3 day stubble without drama, and is noticeably kinder to sensitive skin than a lot of cheaper electrics and blades. The big head, strong motor and decent trimme...

Philips Norelco Shaver i9000 Review: a high-end rotary that finally makes daily shaving tolerable

☆☆☆☆☆ ★★★★★

Overall, the Philips Norelco Shaver i9000 is a high-end rotary shaver that focuses on comfort and consistency more than chasing the absolute closest shave on earth. On daily or every-other-day use, it gives a clean, office-ready result with much less irritation than a manual razor or many cheaper el...

Leaf Razor Review: the metal head-shaver that wants to replace your plastic cartridges

☆☆☆☆☆ ★★★★★

After actually using the Leaf Razor regularly, my take is: it’s a solid metal razor that does head and body shaving very well, with a few quirks you need to accept. The pivoting head and multi-blade setup make it much easier and faster than a classic safety razor on the scalp and legs, and the fact...

MANGROOMER Ultimate Pro Back Shaver Review: finally dealing with back hair without begging for help

☆☆☆☆☆ ★★★★★

Overall, the MANGROOMER Ultimate Pro does what it claims: it lets you shave your own back without help and without too much drama.

☆☆☆☆☆ ★★★★★

The Andis 24675 UltraEdge 2‑Speed is a solid, no‑nonsense corded clipper that suits most home groomers who want something stronger than the usual cheap kits.

Wahl Bravura Lithium Review: a solid home clipper that actually feels pro

☆☆☆☆☆ ★★★★★

Overall, the Wahl Bravura Lithium is a pretty solid middle-ground clipper: more serious than basic home kits, but not a full-on industrial machine. It handled my doodle’s curly coat and my long-haired cat without drama, as long as I prepped the coat and didn’t try to bulldoze through heavy mats. The...

Braun Series 9 PRO+ Review: a pricey foil shaver that finally made me ditch blades

☆☆☆☆☆ ★★★★★

After a few weeks of daily use, the Braun Series 9 PRO+ has basically replaced my manual razor for normal shaves. It gives a very close result, especially on the cheeks and jaw, with less irritation than most electrics I’ve tried. The comfort is good enough that I can shave every morning without my...

Braun Series 7 7177cc Review: a solid everyday shaver with a few quirks

☆☆☆☆☆ ★★★★★

After using the Braun Series 7 7177cc regularly, my overall take is that it’s a reliable, comfortable mid-range shaver that focuses more on ease of use than on delivering the absolute closest shave possible.
