WHY THE PRICE IS JUSTIFIED

An honest value design: Japanese blade engineering, IPX7 washability and user-replaceable power instead of a disposable built-in battery. Its compromise is lower cutting power than the ER-GK83 and only 2/3 mm attachments.

MATERIALS

BladeJapanese stainless-steel protected body blade

The same blade family as the higher ER-GK83 gives close trimming with guarded skin contact.

Power systemReplaceable AA battery

DESIGN & ERGONOMICS

Compact, light I-shaped form is easy to see around and maneuver. AA power makes it less sleek than a rechargeable docked tool but much more practical for infrequent users and travel.

LONGEVITY

The AA battery is user replaceable and Panasonic documents support and blade lookup. Rinse, shake dry and replace the blade as it dulls; this is better repairability than sealed rechargeable budget trimmers.
