Customer Review: Garbage! Absolute trash!
Summary: 1 Stars
I got it in the mail. Turned it on. And it worked for about two minutes- This was acceptable in my mind because who knows how long it had been since it was charged and a residual charge is never expected to last all that long. So that evening, before I went to bed, I plugged the device to charge for what ended up being about 10 hours. When the morning arrived, I turned it on, all was well, it started working and rather nicely at that. I was able to finish one side of the cuff on my jacket (3-4 minutes) and then it began to slow down and die. I laughed because I could have sworn it made a cartoony "poot" noise when it died. Needless to say and regardless of my brief amusement I was not happy.
The next thing I tried was simply running it while plugged in. You'd think that a device such as this would run while plugged in, right? Wrong.
Afterwards, I resolved to let it charge again and see if it just needed a longer charge (the manual is a 3-page accordion of "totally useless" by the by). After another 10 hours being charged, it worked just fine for about three minutes or so before it stopped.
It just stopped.
After having read the reseller's return info page (which they advise to read first before purchasing their product... Really guys? Read this page first that you've never see before or been directed to? Kudos on a horrible consumer experience) I've decided its not worth my time to even try and get my money back. It will actually cost me more money to try and get this whole situation resolved than to just throw this junk away.
UGH.
Simply put. Product not recommended. DON'T Purchase.
Customer Review: Poor quality
Summary: 1 Stars
First let me say that previous reviewers are correct that if you remove the height adjuster, the function of this product is pretty good. Its large head WOULD make this and attractive product for pilled bed sheets or sweat shirts, etc. I was impressed for the first ten minutes after a full charge - then the charge started to die. I thought maybe the battery needed some conditioning so accepted this, its in other reviews, besides I don't want to spend 2hrs shaving my clothes. Used it 2 more times, then it BROKE. I could hear something moving in the handle. For 13 bucks I figured I'd take it apart to see what was going on. What did I discover? the positive connection solder on the 500mah NiCad battery had broken. 500mah - to drive a motor. You'll never get more than 10-15min of use out of a junk battery like this, and the solder was so thin, I can't imagine this will hold up for any extended use.
Look elsewhere.

I have purchased this and to my grave dissapointemnt this product does not work. The customer service is rude, sarcastic and not helpful. The most awful experience I have had while buying from these people.
Beware and do not give them your money! Products doesnt work and returns are a hassle!!! The shaver works so slowly and badly that I wouldnt even try to return it anymore, it belongs in the trash, not here for sale
Customer Review: Great for a month

Well, I thought I'd take a chance and try out this shaver. It worked fine for exactly 3 1/2 weeks before the internal battery died. Permenantly. It uses some no-name rechargable battery in the handle that is welded in so you can't even replace it.
It's just junk. You're better off spending the extra dollar and going with one of the other brands.
Customer Review: It just doesn't work
Summary: 1 Stars
We had to return this product because it just didn't work at all. Sharper Image was prompt about the refund, but we were out the shipping (to and from!). It turned on and appeared to be working properly, but just wasn't powerful enough to depill a sweater. Avoid at all cost.
