MANGROOMERULTIMATE PRO Back Shaver with 2 Shock Absorber Flex Heads, Power Hinge, Extreme Reach Handle and Power Burst

I bought this completely on whim because I was looking for an easier way to shave my back. Firstly, I was previously using a simple back shaving wand that I'd attach with Schick Hydro 5 razor. I had also previously used the expensive BakBlad which SUCKED! It only lasted three shaves then it became so dull it did nothing. Waste of money! I was happy with my simple back shaving wand however only it was a production to shave having to lather up my back, shave, shower, then come back to clean up the leftover hair.That's when I found this wonderful tool! I thank all the glowing Amazon Reviews (people seemed to be literally in love with it) which prompted me to buy it. Yes!! The Love is Justified! This thing is AMAZING! First off, it's very well made. Sturdy, masculine and dare I say, just sexy. It's rechargeable but already came with a charge so I was able to immediately begin mowing my backyard. I've shaved with mechanical clippers before but they'd always tear up my back leaving scratches and annoying stubble. However, this thing has a special head that shaves close against my skin and is flanked by a clipper's like blades that cuts the longer hairs. It also came with a straight clipper's like head if you'r hair is super long to begin with.The shaving process was super simple. It didn't irritate my delicate skin (but of course the rest of me is tough as nails), and by shaving against the grain it left my skin nice and smooth. I recommend shaving slowly (grooming should be a practice not a race), using mirrors if possible to see what you're doing. In just 7 minutes I went from King Kong to Kim Jong-un (since he's Asian I'll assume he doesn't worry about back hair). My skin was pretty dry afterward so I put some lotion and my skin sparkled like back in the day before life decided to take all the hair from my head and put it on my back.Lastly, it was powerful enough to cut all my hair without a problem. Although it does have a "Power Burst" button which I call Robin Williams Mode. The best part of this unit is now I can easily shave my back every few days and when I go out shirtless I'll no longer have these PETA nuts throwing red paint on me shouting "fur is murder!"(I hope you liked my review, I tried to spice it up with humor because life can be dull sometimes. If you liked my review may I recommend you print it out and read it aloud at your next party)

For those wondering how long this thing will last, I bought one in 2014 and it's still working very well. I was looking around for a private area trimmer and couldn't believe it has been 10 years since I bought this but it has. I have used this for the private area and it works very well in terms of no nicks and close shave but the thing is just a little bulky for that purpose. I typically don't use the "close" attachment but when I have it works well. The power burst button is pretty much a gimmick only because it isn't necessary, but it does boost the rpm's if we can use that term for a shaver. It's great for reaching all parts of my back and with a little practice you can trim your whole back in about 3-4 minutes. No complaints.

UPDATE: In response to my posting here, Mangroomer reached out to me and made everything right. They shipped me the part I needed at no cost. The product itself really is amazing.

Where was this thing about 25 years ago?!?! I received my MANGrooomer Ultimate Pro in 2 days (even in the midst of snow storm) as expected and it was packaged very well. I opened the package and read the instructions from end to end before attempting to use it. They state to let the unit charge for 18 to 24 hours before use so that's what I did.About 18.5 hours later I got comfortable with the way the unit adjusted/operated and started in. Now I should say that I was one of the first of my friends growing up to get body/facial hair. Sadly it doesn't seem to have ever stopped! I'm now 45 and while I haven't ever let my hairy presentation deter me from doing what I wanted (beach, pool, etc.), I've always been very uncomfortable with my appearance. And while my hair wasn't the thick, brillo-pad style I've seen on some unfortunate guys out there, it was more than what I ever wanted on my body. I went the Nair route once and let's just say I only went that way once for a reason!! Nasty stuff!! One of the issues I faced is that there really wasn't a place to "stop shaving" if I had someone shave my back which meant shaving my "front" and arms too. Who wants to bother someone with that all of the time?So I fire up the MANGroomer for its maiden voyage and I'll admit, I was a bit skeptical after seeing some of the negative reviews. I thought for sure I was going to end up one of those guys with the "hair type" that the MANGroomer wouldn't cut through or whatever. The instructions say to make slow passes to prevent pulling the hair out. So I make a couple of slow passes on my upper back/shoulder area and ... holy crap ... the hair's gone! And no pain! No redness! No smell! So I continue...I was able to do my whole back thanks to the way the MANGroomer is designed. Because the human-wool on my back was rather thick, I opted for the trimmer blade versus the close-cut/razor blade. It removed the hair so short you could barely see it. You could feel the stubble if you ran a hand across my back, but really not bad at all.Because there was no good stopping point as I mentioned earlier, I continued to do the rest of my body. One of the other concerns I had was whether or not I'd be able to use this everywhere or if I'd have to buy yet another groomer for the rest of my body. I was able to maneuver the MANGroomer so as to get everything trimmed up - arms, legs, torso, etc. It left a little more on my chest than everywhere else but that hair seems thicker than the rest. It was still very close...I was able to do my entire body without recharging and the motor didn't seem to be slowing down. Still, before I used it again I thought it best to plug it in and charge it up. After charging the unit for 2-3 hours and allowing me and my body to adjust to it's new-found environment, I swapped heads on the MANGroomer and tried out the closer-shaving head on my back. It's a little tougher to use than the trimmer only because of the angle you have to hold the MANGroomer at to get the head to sit flat. But just the same, it worked pretty well. I'll use a regular razor for the areas I can reach and save the MANGroomer for the back areas I can't reach.I cannot tell you how great I feel! This was long overdue. What made me finally decide to go forward with this is a recent vacation where I was the only guy at the pool/beach who wasn't man-scaped. Evidently, gone are the days where guys who shave their bodies are not the norm. I feel so much better about myself and cannot wait until the next vacation or pool party so I can show-off my new self! Another perk, the muscle tone that was lurking beneath the forest of man-fur is now on display for all to see. Good days ahead!
