It started out great, but went downhill quick...

Reviewed in the United States on July 24, 2007

Verified Purchase

I'm not going to go into a long detailed explanation, but I will say this:
I've tried about a dozen different makes and models of nose hair trimmers and they were all junk/garbage. The Panasonic ER421KC is a fantastic piece of grooming equipment that works perfectly and quickly. It's powerful, well built, and cuts clean and quickly just like it should. I'm the kind of guy who will spend a ton of money to find the right product so that when I need to use it, it will do what it is supposed to. Trust me when I say this is the one to get, so go for it! Besides that, for $16, it's a bargain in my opinion. Enjoy!

5/24/2010 REVIEW UPDATE:
Shortly after I posted my original review, I started having trouble with this trimmer. It started to have a really hard time picking up speed when spinning the blade and keeping up speed. I have always cleaned it meticulously after every use and even tried different kinds of lubrication and batteries but it just works very poorly. I still have it and put up with it but it's very frustrating because it ends up pulling a lot of hairs because the RPM's intermittently drop which causes the blade to yank the hair instead of cutting it. It's just weak and no matter how many new batteries I put in it, it still is gutless and ineffective for the most part. I was very disappointed since as usual, I purchased the item here on Amazon after reading several positive reviews on the product. I guess you can't win them all!

5. Because of the happiness it brings.

Reviewed in the United States on August 11, 2006

Verified Purchase

I read the reviews. I expected the pain. Now, I have mastered this modern marvel.

Pros:
- No more commutes with people staring at me while I yank and pinch into my nose.
- If you use it as the delicate work of art it is, it doesn't hurt as much as the yanking and pinch (see my tips below).
- The light IS useful - it allows you to see into the nether regions of your nostrils to catch those that might otherwise show their hairs tomorrow.
- Water proof for your running under the faucet for cleaning.
- Small, lightweight, and neat design (like a mini-light saber to slash through the dark side of your nose)

Cons:
- Not a whole lot of power, but the question begs as to how much power you'd like to stick up your nostrils anyways.
- Though the water proof capabilities allow you to run this bugger under the faucet, your normal faucet doesn't do much to clean it.

Tips:
* Usage:
I've found that this trimmer works best when you cut as if your trimming bushes, not as if you were cutting grass. What I mean is that it would be best if you refrain from just cramming it up your nose. Granted, if you're purchasing this device, you're probably used to just yanking hairs anyways (hence, you're also used to the associated pain). Trust me, if you take it a little at a time, the pain is greatly diminished and the effectiveness of the trimmer is enhanced. Also, use the lamp attached - I cannot stress this enough.

*Cleanup:
After you run it under the faucet, hold tightly, bring close to your body, and then extend your arm quickly towards the sing. You may thus sling debris that may be caught in the water that may be stuck in your device. This works for me and it makes the trimmer more efficient in its cutting.

All in all, I am completely satisfied with this purchase. Additionally, my wife is completely happy that I am no longer leaving long nose hairs on her floorboard during our commute.

Acceptable function - LED light is totally USELESS

Reviewed in the United States on April 9, 2015

Verified Purchase

4/9/15. Acceptable function for trimming nose hair. This replaced a great Sharper Image Turbo-Groomer 5.0 model that wore out and is no longer available. It is 1/2 the size of the Turbo-Groomer 5.0. The LED light is totally USELESS - It's only a sales gimmick; adding nothing to the utility of the tool. It does a passible job of trimming the nose hair but useless for much else, as are almost all the current marketed trimmers. It's probably no worse then the other models and brands; plus it's cheap. I saved the Turbo-Groomer 5.0 for other purposes as only the nose hair trimmer went bad. It was a nice tool. It's too bad they stopped making it.

Works well but not great. Gets the job done but takes longer than expected. I like that its compact for travel etc. The light is completely useless and gimmicky but its not necessary so I don't care. Overall decent tool for little money as long as it doesn't break or anything in the foreseeable future.

Reviewed in Canada on April 12, 2014

I asked my brother what he wanted for his birthday, and to my surprise, he asked for a nose hair trimmer. After doing a bit of research I purchased this model for him, along with some other more appropriate birthday presents. After a few weeks I checked back on him, and he said the trimmer was great. A few weeks ago I was looking at my Conair trimmer, which was getting very beaten up. The battery door was held on with tape, and the trimmer edge plastic was cracking, so I decided to buy this model for myself. I like the features - waterproof, lighted, and pretty sleek. I found it much quieter than the Conair. I had to do a fair amount of work to cut through the jungle of my nostrils. The device heats up after a few minutes, which I found slightly uncomfortable. Also, the light seems to be tungsten and not LED, and casts a small and rather useless beam into my nose. I wasn't expecting a flood light, but in the age of high-intensity LEDs, I found the light rather lacking. The tip disassembles for cleaning, which I found easy, but I was worried about bending the little flimsy-looking steel blades. Panasonic makes a whole line of these with different features, and it seems as though the head is the same on all of them.
Regarding how well it trimmed (the whole point of the device), it did a good job. There was no tugging, pulling, discomfort, or pain whatsoever. It is not extremely efficient, and more than 2-3 passes is required to remove hair. I was surprised after my first expedition to see a lot of hair left over. The device seems to cut more efficiently head-on. A few pointers before using:
1) Blow your nose first, and make sure it's dry and empty!
2) Give yourself more time than you think necessary for the first try.
3) Blow your nose after, there will be lots of hair fragments up there.
4) Be careful disassembling and cleaning the tip.
Overall, I would recommend this product to the nasally endowed. I can now breathe easy about my purchase.

Three minutes battery life? This thing costs more to operate per hour than a minimum wage employee!

Reviewed in Canada on February 13, 2015

Verified Purchase

It trims well, but it's a battery pig and a waste of money. I'd return it if I could, but I'm past the deadline.

Using Duracell batteries, I get about 3 minutes before it dies. Current Amazon price for 24 batteries is $18.00. That's an operating cost of $15/hr.
