This longtime Lactaid devotee may have just found his new milk of preference. I bought mine at Whole Foods.

I also notice you have the attention of (whom I assume) everyone who shaves their head on here.

I just got a panasonic clipper that goes from 1mm to 10mm in .5mm increments, but I am intrigued by your post as well. Researching now.
Well, it has taken a few weeks before I was able to test the new thing...and to say it frankly: For me personal its a peace of crap which gone back to shop on Monday.

To explain you my rating: Aside of its very cool design and art, its way much too big and unhandy to use it for more as just the head. The adjustment, memory and floating stageadjustments are just annoying after switching it on. You hit the power button and rest your thumb automatically onto the sensorfield, where the length is be set...brrrrt, the length changes instantly. So you have to reset it onto your desired length or use the memory function.
Second and for me most important reason: The 3 delivered combs are all way too big and from the design are not really useful to clip all kinds of headshapes at the first try. Reason herefore are the cutdesign, the comb rests into the housing and the length is adjusted from the machine. The cutting zone is in the middle of the comb and when you start clipping, the cutzone must be plain and straight, otherwise the blades wont cut your hairs to the desired length. Had started at the read lower side of my head and try to make the closer corner to my main head...no way. Within the "curve" I'd lifted the comb a bit and all hairs weren't hit properly, so I had to treat that place over and over again, until the last hairs were cut.
Whats more to say? The hairs are starting to stuck under the comb dorsal end to the machine and you have to wipe or blow out them more than one time, depends on your hairthickness.
But the most disadvantage is the unusability at other parts at my body, starting into my pits, caused by the comb and cutter design, its impossible to reach all hairs into the pit, you can't turn your pit into a flawless plain area.
Same at chestparts and so on.
You may consider my words, when you're gonna buy exactly this machine. Maybe its fitting better for you, but I will definitely looking for another one.

Do you know what a "hair clipper" is? Or that "hair" (singular) means either just one of all of them on the head, specifically? Your report does seem missing an attempt to use it in your nose!

There are other hair cutting tools for other then the "top" of the head parts of the body (including nose/ears, moustache/beard separately from the hair). Once it's Philips you chose, here you are (their range): https://www.usa.philips.com/c-e/mens...g-welcome.html.

And yes, a Philips hair clipper (a simpler model, same design) does fail to follow the head shape any nicely, "expecting" it to be perfectly round, at least, if not just flat. Yet other manufacturers' (I haven't tried yet) look quite the same in appearance.

Hence you dont know my previous clipper model, which was also a Philps, it was useable for all, I was expecting same possibilities and for sure I know that there are different models for different purposes. But nice sideeffect that my story gaves you a chuckle.

My resistance band collection has outgrown my makeshift storage solution. Time for a proper hanger. Rogue's 5" deep version is perfect for the space I'm allocating.

Using a single, non-dedicated tool, like an axe , for all your grooming needs seems a bit outdated. If you wish to shave your groin, in particular.

Does it have an USB cable, makes digitalizing more easier, if you consider this.

Another UNTUCKit shirt. This one is solid light blue, and takes advantage of their better "Luxe" shirts being on sale.
