![]() ![]() No such worries with this one, the Series 9 feels expensive and is the perfect shape to get a good grip on. When I reviewed Braun’s previous Series 7 trimmer, one of my complaints about it was that the plastic body “wasn’t that pleasant” and that it was “the least easy to grip of the range”. This solid trimmer, on its neat charging stand, feels like a weapon only they use. You’ll also feel like a barber as you use it. “Look barber fresh everyday” boasts the packaging, and it’s true, you will. 60-minute charge for 180-minute battery life.Accessories: 10 barbering tools including three heads and six combs.Panasonic boasts that “sustainability is at the heart” of this product because you “only choose the attachments for your individual style”, meaning “there’s less waste created”. You can switch to an electric toothbrush head and nose/ear/facial trimmer head to the same unit, so this is a great solution for the travelling trimmer. This is particularly true if you have a longer beard, which this unit can tackle more happily than the others in this line-up. ![]() In the short term, this feels almost like too many options, but if you commit to the Multi Shape, you can learn to stop worrying and love the choices. A rotary cuff on the handle offers a mind-boggling choice of 58 length settings, across four different combs. I could feel the power emanating from the handle, with its anti-slip coating reassuring me that I wouldn’t deviate from my chosen targets. The unit itself is heavy-looking but actually quite light and it delivers a reliable, ultra-clean shave. The fact it describes itself as not a beard trimmer, but a ‘modular personal care system’ only adds to the grandiosity, albeit with a slightly dehumanising and condescending turn of phrase. It has been described as “god tier” and “the best grooming kit money can buy” – and Panasonic is about as solid a brand as you can imagine in this realm. I picked up this trimmer wondering if I should believe the hype. ![]()
