Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I was a long time fan of the previous model, Remington SCC-100, and after reading the reviews of the HC4250 I was skeptical of the new design but I thought I would give the new model a try and I am very glad I did. The curve and the size of the blade are the same and the newer model feels lighter, is quieter, and I feel that it gives me a closer trim. I used the old model without a guard and if I wasn't careful it would knick my head but the newer model did not. I was able to use the newer model up and down or back and forth like the old one and I am hoping the newer battery style last longer than the previous did where I had to buy one every year or two (since 2010 I bought 4 of the previous model). If you are balding and want an easy quick way to trim your entire head then this is definitely the trimmer you need! July 2017 update. The trimmer is still working great, hands down big improvement over the old model. The battery holds a charge much longer then the old model. Several months before I need to charge it. I use the oil to keep it lubed and the unit still provides a close head shave with no nicks. I prefer the new configuration and it is very easy to hold for a quick head trim. I'm so glad they updated the battery from the old type.
