Reddit mentions of Remington MB-200 Titanium Mustache and Beard Trimmer, Black

I have this one and I think it's great. It's inexpensive, does the job well, and is also very useful for trimming sideburns and the like. For stubble, just remove the attachment. If you're impatient like me, Walmart shudder sells them.

I'm just like you, and I go clean shaven with a razor about once a year. The rest of the time, I just grow out the beard weekly and then shave it down to stubble. One more tip to keep it looking good is (after trimming) to use a razor to clean up your cheeks and give your face a more groomed look.

NO, IT ISN'T.

GET A REMINGTON MB200. EVERY COUPLE OF DAYS, HOP IN THE SHOWER WITH IT AND BUZZ YOUR HEAD. ALL THE FLYING STUBBLE IS CONTAINED AND WASHES DOWN THE DRAIN, NO MUSS, NO FUSS. ASSUMING YOU DON'T WANT YOUR HEAD SHAVED SMOOTH, THIS IS THE WAY TO GO.

Yo I have the same problem. I took your image and drew a line where you should be ending your chest hair:

Try to keep it as natural as possible. What I do is take my trimmer:

This one is good because you just use a wheel to adjust the length, you don't have to attach different guides. I take that and at the very edges where my delts meet my pecs, I start at the lowest setting, do a small line with that, and then go up a setting, do a small line, etc etc until I'm at my desired length (I would recommend around a centimeter).

It gives it a very natural fade-in look. Try it!

edit: also wanted to add that the end points on the sides and bottom should just be where your pecs are meeting your torso. Definitely try to fade in as well. if you want to keep the tummy hair, I would say trim that and fade as well.

I bought this Remington a couple years ago and it's holding up like a champ. Only downside is it won't let you run it off the charger which is annoying if you forget to charge it. Charges do last a while, just got to remember to plug it in every so often. No half sizes, but I've found the 1, 2, 3 and 4 settings to be very good. I usually stay between a 2 or 3.

Whatever you do, DO NOT buy this piece of shit (Braun Cruzer). I bought it when I was on vacation because I forgot the Remington and wanted a new trimmer that would run off the charger. For whatever reason they decided they didn't need a "2" setting. 1 is too short and 3 is too long sometimes. Other than the lack of 2, it's actually a decent trimmer but as 2 is the best setting, it'd be a horrible idea to buy this thing. I use it on my pubes now.

Take the guard off of that and trim away. I have awful ingrown hair on my neck, so I've been using one of these for about 5 years. The beard trimmers give a shorter stubble, which is what it sounds like you are asking for, than a traditional hair clipper.

Remington MB-200 Titanium Mustache and Beard Trimmer

I have a slightly older model and the battery is starting to let go, but it's the best beard and mustache trimmer that I've used. Cheap, simple, and titanium blades (that won't dull with proper care!) makes it the perfect trimmer.

I just ordered the Remington Precision MB 200 based on a coworker's recommendation and stellar Amazon reviews. I'll post a review when it arrives and I tackle my scruff.

Of course! Was this one:

A real simply trimmer but by far the best I've used.

The picture you have is NOT a 5 o'clock shadow. The meaning behind the phrase "5 o'clock shadow" is that you would've shaved early in the morning and by the late afternoon you have that extremely short stubble show. That's a couple days worth of stubble on Mr. Cooper there.

As for the stubble look, get a beard trimmer and use it on the 1 setting without the plastic cover for the blades. This is the one I have.

And remember - the stubble looks is great but the feel is (most of the time) passionately hated by a significant other. It feels like sandpaper on their face. Just something to think of.

The Remington MB-200 kicks ass. The last model I bought around 15 years ago and its still running. I use it for my beard, haircuts, body hair, you name it.

Picked this up for about $15 It's been good to me.

I actually just bought this less than a month ago and it's working out well so far.

Actually you go. $30. Similar model, might be ok?

I have this and love it:

Just look at all those positive reviews.

eh, all you need is a decent trimmer with a guide.

for example: http://www.amazon.com/Remington-MB-200-Titanium-Mustache-Trimmer/dp/B0009OMU0A/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1291313155&sr=8-1

Morning upkeep of the beard takes about a minute for me.

I have the braun shaver hands down the best electric shaver, but the extension for beard trimmer went out. I'm now looking to get Remington MB-200 or Wahl 9918-6171 Groomsman Beard and Mustache Trimmer

well then this will complete my arsenal of shaving/grooming products.

• Philips BG2040 body groomer
  
  
• Panasonic ER GN30 K nose hair trimmer
  
  
• Remington MB 200 trimmer - i use for pubes and pits
  
  
• Merkur DE for real shaving
  
  nothing really goood though so far for stubble, excited this will be here on friday

I got this: Remington MB-200, $15, has a rechargeable battery and variable trimming levels. It kinda sucks for an actual clean shave as its a beard trimmer, but since I'm doing the stubble thing to it works pretty well, I either use the 1 or no guard setting. The major con is that its disposable; i.e., you can't replace the parts (blade, battery, etc.) but it is $15 so hey, thems the stakes. Add a standard disposable razor to your kit for the occasional clean shave and you've got a pretty cheap facial hair grooming solution.

And you don't find it gives you sores or pimples? I've had two electrics in my time, neither have been that good, both broke. But I recall them giving me cuts and sores. Maybe it was because I didn't take good care of them, nor cleaned them... Someone posted this Remington MB-200 Titanium Mustache and Beard Trimmer which seems to fit the bill quite well for what I need...

Thanks

I have used a Remington MB300 for the past 6 years. I'm on my 2nd one, but only replaced the first one after I accidentally left it in a hotel on a trip and it magically disappeared from the room. Arrived home, realized I left it at the hotel, called, and it was gone. Had my current one for almost 4 years now, and still going strong.

And as I'm typing this, I am searching so I can give you a link...only to find that it appears they don't make it anymore? I see an MB200 on amazon with good reviews, and it appears that the only difference is that the 200 is just lacking the little "micro-trimmer" that the 300 has...

Remington MB200

I have to disagree with most people here. This is the way to go. I've saved at least 6k on haircuts since I started using this model.

Yes it's "cheap." Yes, it's cordless.

The model hasn't really changed in years and all they do is improve the battery. I owned 1 for over 10 years and gave it it to a relative, happy to get a lighter, faster charging, longer lasting clone. As a built-in adjustable it actually has a wide enough cutting face for haircuts where most others are narrow and more geared toward beards.

Heavy build, power cords, and length guides you have to constantly change on Wahl isn't the way to go when you're giving yourself haircuts and/or want to quickly tune the beard in the morning.
