OneBlade is a one stop…

The Phillips OneBlade unit arrives neatly and securely packaged in a brightly coloured box that is sure to get your attention. You get the body of the trimmer a couple of blades, some click on attachments, a charger, some documentation and a nice carry pouch.
The trimmer arrived completely flat but only took around an hour to fully charge and then it was ready to use.
The unit is compact and light and easy to maneuver. The blades themselves are quite compact also so you will have no issue getting them to the area you want to trim. The sensitive area attachment, body hair grooming attachment and adjustable length attachment all click on to the shaver easily.
I used the trimmer with all the attachments attached at one time or another as well as just the bare blade. I have a beard which I trim and neaten weekly and this kit was perfect for that. I could easily set the length I wanted with the adjustable attachment to ensure I didn't trim to short and for edging and stray hairs on my face I used a bare blade. For trimming my chest I used just the bare blade but managed to nick myself through my overzealous use of the trimmer. I suggest taking it slow and steady and ensuring you keep the blade flat against the skin or use one of the skin guards. My issue was I failed to keep the bare blade flat on my skin and as I tilted the blade at an angle and moved the trimmer it managed to push in to my skin rather than slide over it and it pinched and nicked my skin. Totally operator error in this instance and not the unit's fault. It did prove to me the blades are sharp!
I also braved shaving my "sensitive" areas with it and after the earlier nick I used the sensitive skin guard and I had no issues at all. After some initial trepidation I found no cause for concern and was able to achieve a close, smooth trim with no issues.
Over all this is a very convenient kit to have for all manner of hair trimming and I highly recommend it.
If I had to make a criticism it would be the instructions. These are presented as a fold out booklet with pictograms and it is the pictograms I didn't like as they are, for me at least, difficult to follow along with and have them make sense. A very small criticism of an overall fantastic package.
Overall I rate the Phillips OneBlade very highly and if you have a beard or body hair that you would like to remove safely and easily then I suggest you take a good look at the One Blade.
