Wahl 9880-100 Lithium Ion Triple Play Shaver and Trimmer

 (9 customer reviews)

The ads say this shaver gives an ultra close shave. This is not even close to what you get. You could stand in front of the mirror for an hour using this shaver and still would not get a good shave. It doesn't get close at all. You can pull your skin down to get closer or put more pressure on the shaver but nothing helps. Watch out if you put too much pressure, the whole shaving head will come off. I had to go all over my face with a blade razor to finish the job. I used an old Norelco for years that did a much better job. I went to the store to buy a new Norelco after reading the reviews on some new ones. When I got there I saw this Wahl razor and having a Wahl clipper that I am happy with, I decided to give this a shot. Wrong move. DO NOT BUY THIS SHAVER. I should have bought the Norelco.

This looked good in the store but taking it out of the box, I discovered it was really cheap plastic. The blades fell apart and one of the aluminum trim pieces came off the side of the power unit ..... needless to say, I returned it for a refund.

The razor is poorly built and failed within 30 days of receipt. I am very grateful that Amazon had a return option for this item, but my advice is do not buy this razor to begin with and you won't have to utilize Amazon's customer service.
