I have been looking for a body groomer for a few months. Reading up on many and buying none. My wife ordered this and gave it to me stating I was dragging my feet.
I was very apprehensive to use this as the body parts in question are tender sensitive only to be loved body parts. Honestly each of the attachments worried me. It had been a while since I’d done anything down there plus I wanted to get a feel for it so I started with the “Short beards” attachment. I did this on my inner thighs, S and Bs. Seem to work great no problems there. After looking at the “body grooming” attachment I got nervous and went with the “stubble look” attachment for a even closer shave; again worked great no problems there. Now we get to the “body grooming” attachment. To start I nicked myself 3 times. My wife heard me swear from down stairs the second time and told me to stop but I wanted to finish. I’m hoping it gets easier as I get better although frankly I don’t know if I’ll use that attachment again. I’m currently smooth as a babies bum with 3 sore nicks.
EDIT: I’ve shaved two more times and have not had any nicks. User error may have been to blame during first attempt.



The positives:
-Very nice shape and comfortable to hold
-Very nice hardshell storage case, but admittedly it is a little large for travel
-Has all the necessary attachments, but not a lot of superfluous attachments
-Includes a free Gillette Fusion5 razor (which is fantastic, I will pick up one of these to replace my Harry's razor)
The negatives:
-Very poor battery life and it's not possible to use it while the battery is being charged :(
-Noisy, much noisier than other trimmers I've used
-The trimmer is adjustable in that the combs move up or down on a slider, but it can move while you are using it and cut your hair the wrong length. Happened to me with this trimmer.
-The body groomer attachment is completely useless and that is not hyperbole. After 4 or 5 passes it manages to remove only about half of the hair. My old Norelco removed all hair cleanly after 1-2 passes.
In summary, if you are only needing the trimmer it is usable, but overpriced for a basic mediocre trimmer. If you want the body groomer as well as the trimmer, stay away. How this made it through product testing is just astounding. Braun really didn't do their homework on this product. I returned for a refund.

Battery life: Great. Used almost daily, charged every other week.
Cut Quality: Attachments are accurate and consistent. No clip cut is create.
Cleaning and Maintaining: A lot of wet/dry trimmers have exposed cleaning areas, this does not and is a quick brush/rinse. Not too big as well.

I bought this MGK5245 for the purpose of clipping hair. My hair was several inches long due to quarantine and I needed something that works. This does not "work", and let me tell you why.
Reason#1. Hair accumulates in the blades only after 1~2 strokes and prevents further use unless hair is removed from the blades. This doesn't sound like much, but if you are like me who like cutting the lengths of hair to precision, you WILL need to run over the same spot as many times as you can. Having to remove accumulated hair on the blades every few strokes because either the blades are a)dull or b)not powerful enough is not a consumer product and is a reflection of how "toy-like" this product is. Oh yeah, and if you are using any of the clip-on trimmers hair accumulates BETWEEN them and the blades every few strokes which, again, prevents further use of the said trimmer.
Reason #2. Not designed for clipping hair denser than the lightest part of your body. Like I said, I bought this to clip my hair, but the blades simply does not properly serve that function. You could run the trimmer through your hair a hundred times and hair will literally just "glide across" the blades. I ended up having to pull the end of my hair to tighten it and blade it through, making it "chew" through my hair.
Caveat. This trimmer might serve the purpose of ever so lightly trimming the edges of a coarse beard/hair. But for the purposes of a clipping hair, I would just avoid this line of product all together.
Hope this helps those looking for a hair clipper!

Blade are sharp and only time would say how long the battery holds.
Exactly as described and worth the money, highly recommanded.








UPDATE: I tried another full charge, and it ran down in about 20 sec. I returned it to Kohls, and using the 25% off coupon for doing an Amazon return with them, I bought a Phillips Norelco Multi-Groom All-In-One Trimmer 5000 for half the price. It isn't as nice or well made as the Braun, but has all the same basic features and will run while charging with the cord plugged in.
