I bought this trimmer a year ago and was extremely disappointed with it. The most important part of a beard trimmer for me is its edging ability. This trimmer blade is absolutely pathetic at trimming an edge. My other main complaint is that the wider t-blade (which some people really like) is too wide for me. I find the blade too wide for trimming a curving edge or areas that require more detail like around my mouth and mustache. I actually gave up in frustration after only a few uses. I've been buying the Remington MB-200 for the last 10+ years until they finally stopped making it. The Remington was not a very quality trimmer and I wasn't actually that impressed with its edging ability either, but it was acceptable, and I really liked the adjustable guard and the ergonomic design, which I still think is superior to any other trimmer I've tried. After giving up on the Wahl, I managed to squeeze another few months out of my old Remington, and then I bought a different trimmer that ended up being a piece of junk with a batter that barely lasted for one session from brand new. With almost a year having elapsed, I decided to pull the Wahl back off the shelf and give it another try, but I was just as frustrated as before. However, this time I noticed a paper in the box with a bunch of different attachments that can be purchased for this trimmer. Among these options was a trimmer head that was quite a bit narrower and was called an Extreme Precision Trimmer Blade. This looked very promising so I decided to go for it. I can tell you that I have rarely been so impressed with the performance of a product in such a short time! I touched this blade up against the edge of my beard and got an absolutely perfect sharp edge with no effort. It far surpassed my old Remington or any other trimmer I have ever used! The width is perfect for fine detail work. It snaps in and out of the trimmer very easily, which is good, because I actually also bought a set of guide combs for the t-blade that came with the trimmer and I use that head for trimming my beard to length. So between the extra blade and the guide combs, I have about $110 invested in this trimmer, but I'm absolutely enthralled with it now! It's worth every penny.

    I recently got this newer model Wahl stainless steel beard trimmer after using the previous model for 8+ years! This is the best trimmer for keeping your beard and hair groomed. The battery lasts a long time, and the cordless design makes it super convenient. The new charging port is a huge upgrade from the older model. The only down side with the newer model is you no longer get a number 8 dedicated guard with it. I found some additional guards that fit this style trimmer https://amzn.to/3FiAUde and contain some larger sizes and they've been great. If you need a reliable trimmer this is the one to get. Highly recommend!

  • Reviewed in the United States on April 10, 2014
    I bought the Wahl Lithium Ion Stainless just shy of a year ago and have been using it and loving it ever since! However, it took many other electric shavers before I arrived at this one.

    I've had a beard since I was 17 and since I got scared off of blade shaving after slicing myself up a treat when I was young, I went to electric shaving for over 30 years. I tried a bunch of them, Norelco, Remingtons, and finally Brauns (yes, plurals as indicated). As I went from one to the next, the quality of the shaver did improve as I went. But, although each had a trimmer function, it was really treated like an add-on, something that was put on as more of an afterthought than as a distinct feature. And, that showed in how well, or more to the point how *poorly*, they worked.

    So when I finally returned to blade shaving, I knew I would need to buy a trimmer (especially since my Braun finally vibrated itself to pieces), and I REALLY wanted to find a good, solid trimmer that would do a neat, quality, and preferably quiet job for me. As I usually do, I researched for quite a while, trying to find The Best Trimmer. I knew that Wahl made a number of different trimmers and that my wife (who was a professional hair stylist for 19 years) has always used Wahl trimmers in her business. I did look at other brands of trimmers, too, but I kept returning to Wahl. How can you go wrong by looking deeper into a company that has a long history of quality products that are (better yet!) made in the USA? Answer: You can't.

    Wahl makes a plethora of trimmers - cool. One thing that was very important to me was excellent battery life. Because of this, the words "Lithium Ion" popped out at me during one of my searches, leading me to this trimmer. It was stylish, excellent battery type, and had tons of accessories & combs. Looked *extremely* promising, so I ordered it. The results?

    I love this groomer/trimmer! It really does feel good & solid in your hand, not flimsy nor poorly-made; it has a very balanced heft to it, too, so your hand is not going to tire out from holding it, either. And, oh, is it QUIET! Unlike every other electric razor/trimmer combo that I've owned, this puppy is incredibly quiet, yet still powerful enough to go right thru the hair.

    Battery life? Stellar. I've charged it 4 times in the last 10.5 months (one being the initial charge). It typically lasts me about 3 months on a charge, since I tend to "train" batteries by running them thru 3 full charge/discharge cycles when they're new (and this is the last of those 3 cycles, new charge + 3 more). An old habit I got into that may not be relevant for current battery types, yet still seems to serve me well in conditioning the batteries for long life. And yes, this Wahl gives me an extended span of usage per charge, especially when compared to all the older models I used to have. I trim for ~15 minutes each week, plus the occasional touch-up, and I get about 3 months per charge.

    Attachments? Plenty of them - more than you'll need. Now, some folks whose review I read before buying have dinged this groomer for having too many attachments. Not valid, really; if you don't need 'em, don't use 'em. The fact is, Wahl gives you plenty of OPTIONS for you to choose from! Find the ones which are most useful to you and stash the rest - simple! I haven't changed the head from the blade to another blade, or the nose hair trimmer (yet), but I will - I just haven't gotten the urge to do so. As for the combs, I tried a bunch of them and finally settled on two that I use every week; first the longer one, then the shorter one. Works perfectly and gives me a neat, well-groomed look in an easier, FASTER fashion than I've ever been able to accomplish before. I've even had multiple comments on how nicely trimmed my beard is, but only after I started using the Wahl 9818. :-)

    The other complaint is about the plastic stand. Pshaw, people, what do you want, a really good trimmer, or an overpriced stand on which to place said trimmer? I'll take the first, thank you. Yes, it's a plain, clear plastic stand that is 100% functional and just the right size. They designed it to hold your trimmer in the same position, allowing it to be plugged in or not, as needed. If it's plugged in, you can easily see the charge light as it stands there, so you know that it's done when the light goes out. Works perfectly, unobtrusive, and because it's not unnecessarily fancy, they didn't have to up the price to cover anything you didn't need.

    BOTTOM LINE: This trimmer is worth every penny! I am completely and totally happy that I bought it, I love its style, form, & functionality, and I'd buy it again in a heartbeat if I needed another one.

    I've had a goatee or beard ever since 1995, so I've owned various cordless trimmers over the years. I've liked the Wahl's trimmers the best, but they have all died after 5+/- years - usually the batteries have stopped holding a charge. I like a neat & precise trim, so having to find a new trimmer I like is always a nuisance, because some permit a closer more accurate trim than others. After reading all the reviews for the various trimmers with 4 stars or more on Amazon, & checking out the reviews on a couple of other sites as well, I decided on the Wahl 9818 All-In-One Lithium Ion. I confess that I usually buy cheaper models, but decided to go up-scale a little this time to see if the quality would justify the additional cost.

    The 9818 arrived a couple of days ago & so far it has surpasses every model I've ever had before. It is simply outstanding & even has a professional feel to it. The solid metal body is comfortable & all the various clipper heads seem well-designed & work perfectly.

    I especially like that it's American made; the body is stainless steel; the T-blade, & all the blades are stainless steel & are easily removable; the other heads interchange easily; the rotary nose trimmer performs better than my Panasonic unit; the LED on the on/off button indicates when it's charging & starts blinking when the battery is low; the multiple trimmer guides provide a wide selection regarding closeness of trim; & the motor is relatively quiet & performs very well. I'm able to get a neat, precise, & accurate trim.

    What I don't like is that the shaver cannot be used while charging - not a big deal as the led light flashes when the battery is low, there is a "quick charge", & the battery, when fully charged - seems to lasts a relatively long time. The battery should be replaceable. The trimmer guides could have been made out of a little better grade of plastic. Another annoyance is the little plastic plug that's in the base when you receive it, don't lose it - you'll need that for traveling to prevent the trimmer from turning on & draining your lithium ion battery - I had to retrieve it out of the recycling bin after reading the manual!

    The pluses more than outweigh the minuses and thanks to all the reviews I read I knew about them before the purchase, so still give it 5 stars. The Wahl 9818 is well designed & built. I was looking for a better trimmer & it seems I've found it. I highly recommend it.

    I nearly vomited in my hands when I opened the battered-up box and removed this product, as it was covered in the previous owners hair clippings. Absolutely vile. I cannot tell you how disgusting this is. Terrible terrible terrible
