Philips Norelco T980 Turbo Vacuum Power - Trimmer - cordless

I've been using Norelco beard trimmers since the early/mid '90s (which, to date, amounts to 3 trimmers). The T980 was the second one I got after the first one stopped working; it was the first with a vacuum. It was absolutely perfect--easy to use and just as easy to clean. A perfect design all around. But Norelco stopped making these or anything even like them. Their latest and greatest does the job, I suppose, but is extremely hard to clean and less easy to use (poorly shaped). If Norelco ever offers the T980 again or something similarly easy to clean, then I'll start buying Norelco trimmers again... but not until then.

This was the best trimmer that I have ever owned. After numerous years the battery finally went. Now I can't find this particular trimmer, nor one even remotely close to it. I have purchased 4 trimmers recently trying to get the results that I had become accustomed to, and not one of the Philips Norelco Trimmers comes close. At this point, I am going to have to look outside of the Philips Norelco Family to find one, which is something that I didn't think would be necessary. PLEASE START MAKING A Philips Norelco Trimmer EXACTLY LIKE THIS. WHY WOULD YOU NOT?

Great product, I had a T750 Trimmer before, I was looking to replace it, I found this. I'm happy the way it works, especially the way it contains hair that is cut, and the adjustments for length. the turbo action is OK, but I don't use it often. It is simple to use, and works forever on a charge.

If you want a product that does a great job, then this one is for you. This trimmer has several settings for the perfect look for you. Not only that the vacuum suck in the hair into a chamber , so there is no mess. The only thing that is not so great is that you have to charge it after the 2 use. Otherwise it is a great product.

I had been using an old Norelco, don't remember the product number. It worked flawlessly for years until the battery finally took a dump. So, thinking that Norelco/Philips would be improving their trimmer I bought this one. BIG MISTAKE!! The last trimmer was basic but had the 9-head adjustments and that's it. This one because of the vacuum has a thicker head, is heavier and fills up where the vacuum is supposed to suck up the hair all it does is clog and make the trimmer not work. I'll be looking for another trimmer this time NOT Norelco.
