4 out of 5 stars Really Pleased   March 11, 2010
L. Massey (Bloomington, IN United States)
Received the T980 for Christmas and have been using it for 2 months now.

As for trimming... outstanding. Gives excellent repeatable results. I have had no problems with the length changing as some reviewers reported. Mine has stayed on the 3 setting that I chose for everytime without fail.

As for the vacuum part... it is a marked improvement over the old method of covering the sink with a towel or just wiping all the stubble off after trimming. I would say that the vacuum catches about 85% to 90% of the hairs. But it is not 100% mess free as the package and the manufacturer suggest. So I can't go 5 stars, because it isn't 100%... but a noticable improvement.

Overall, very pleased with this trimmer.



4 out of 5 stars Good trimmer   March 3, 2010
Bobby C. Hill (maryland)
The first time I used it, I was not very impressed. But each time I use it now, I am more pleased. Once you learn to use it, you will like it. It is very powerful, even without the boost. The vacuum is not perfect, but a lot better than not having one. I have a full beard and it does not pull my facial hair when I use it. I would highly reccomend it.


5 out of 5 stars Used for several months - works great.   March 2, 2010

I've used this for several months - first such trimmer I've owned, and I've liked it quite a bit. When the blades get dull eventually, I'm sure I'll buy another just like it.


5 out of 5 stars This is the best ever   March 2, 2010
Gloria Volkheimer
I tried a Wahl to replace my 8 year old Norelco Maverick. Brought it back to Wal-Mart the next day.

The T980 is a much better product. Adjustments are easy and there's no additional blade guides to snap on and lose. It will hold the adjustment if you need to remove the guide to trim closer.

This is a superior product to the Wahl in every respect. Spend a few extra bucks and get the Norelco. You won't be disappointed.

The trimmer works great. I especially like the adjustable settings that are easy to change. Would highly recommend. The turbo vac feature is wonderful and eliminates the clippings fro going everywhere.
