There are several factors to consider when choosing a Remington trimmer.

• Width of the cutting surface. It is better to give preference to models, the blades of which have a width of 28 to 38 mm.
• The rotational speed of the blades is characterized by the number of revolutions per minute. The higher this parameter, the faster you will cut your hair. Some Remington trimmers have multiple speed settings. High speeds are optimal for hair removal on flat areas, and slow speeds are optimal for bends, such as the chin.
• Vibration and noise. Vibration makes work much more difficult and often leads to skin irritation. The greater the vibration, the higher the chance of a fuzzy cut. The disadvantages also include strong noise during operation. Discomfort is especially felt if hygiene procedures are performed early in the morning, when all households are asleep at home. Therefore, before choosing a model, be sure to test it - even in the store, plug it in and see how much it makes noise and vibrates.
• Weight. The trimmer must be lightweight, otherwise it will overload the arm muscles and make modeling and edging impossible.
• Number of attachments. The more attachments there are in the set, the easier it will be to cut the desired length. A wide range of attachments allows you to modify your image, give the effect of light unshaven, perform a zero shave or make a textured beard.
• Energy source. Remington trimmers can be powered by AC, battery or combination power.
