And Braun is one of the top six manufacturers in the world.
The 3 exchangeable combs have different lengths.
So, you can create different beard and mustache styles.

And there is no risk of water causing problems.

After purchase, if you are not fully satisfied with the performance of this machine you can return it within 90 days of actual purchase day.
The company will back your full money.
So after purchasing this product, keep all the papers safely for the future.
I think it is a great opportunity for customers who want to buy this product.
And there are very few Brands who provides such as a long-time risk-free trial.
Warranty
The Gillette Fusion ProGlide STYLER does not come with any warranty.
Since it is not so expensive product and the functions are so simple, the warranty does not bother the users at all.
Built Quality and Hardware
The Gillette STYLER comes with a very small profile and the product dimensions are 10.5 x 11.9 x 2.8 inches (1.09 pounds).
The blades are very sharp and these are able to cut the thickest beard with perfections.
Braun has focused on the motor and Gillette on the best Blades which will provide the users a comfortable and close shave needed.
The STYLER grip on nice blue rubber what you can easily hold and it feels very easy to maneuver.
For this rubber grip, the trimmer will not slip out of your hand. I like this feature a lot.
The Gillette fusion Proglide STYLER also includes one proglide cartridge attachment.
The cartridge allows refilling any Gillette fusion blade to be used interchangeably on the device.
On the reverse side of the proglide cartridge, you will find the precision trimmer which is designed for creating crisply defined lines and finishing touches.
The battery is located in the middle of the handle. Just unscrew the handle to see it.
There is an organizer with this package.
You have to put the trimmer in front of the organizer. You can take the comb in the back of it; there are 3 places to put the 3 attachment combs.
The Gillette STYLER is fully washable and shower proof.
Power Source
The Gillette STYLER is powered by one AA battery lacking any charging capability.
But I think this product expect a rechargeable battery at the price point.
According to the Gillette, this battery should last anywhere from 1 to 1.5 months based on average shaving.
Since the battery is not rechargeable, you have to buy more batteries when one goes dead. And that is an extra cost.
Attachment Changing Tips
Changing the attachment is very easy. Take the trimmer, snaps right into place, easy.
There is a little button on the back, now press it to detach the attachment, no problem at all.
The attachments are made with plastic, so if you push it too hard you might break it.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Since this machine is waterproof, cleaning is extremely easy and fast.
To rinse the machine, just hold it under running water.
The blades and combs are detachable.
Remove the blade and comb and rinse them under running water for thorough cleaning.
The manufacturers highly recommended that the user should clean the machine thoroughly after every use.
Replacement Parts of Gillette Styler
Gillette is a world-famous Brand.
This Gillette STYLER is a preferred device by men for its capability of fulfilling their shaving needs.
The replacement parts of it are available in the Gillette website and local dealer’s shop or the online stores like Amazon.
Issues
Shaving performance is really appreciable. I don’t have any objection to the shaving performance.
#But I would say one of the issues is when you will push the trimmer head back, lots of hair can get stuck in there. It happened to me a few times. Had to clean it out, you can either rinse it under running water or use a brush to go in there and get that out of there.
#The second issue I had is that, this machine comes with an AA battery and the power starts off strong with a new battery, but I could hear it slowly fade as I was going through and cutting the thickest hair. Not too sure how long this is actually going to last. Gillette says that you should get 1 to 1.5 months out of it.
I think it may be a couple more trims it sounded like I might get through with this. And you have to see it based on your personal use of this device.
What’s in the Box?
- 1 full-size trimmer
- 1 Pro-glide power cartridge
- 3 exchangeable combs
- 1 battery and
- Organizer
All the using instructions you will see in the user manual.
Pros
- An all-rounder product – The Gillette Proglide STYLER is a complete body groomer. It is not only for the beard or mustache. You can also cut your stubble and body hair by this machine.
- Close and comfortable shave – The super sharp blades of this machine will provide you a close and comfortable shave without any skin irritations.
- The organizer – The organizer is very useful and handy to keep all the instruments safely at a single location. Since the organizer is sleek and lightweight, it doesn’t necessary a lot of space to store it.
Cons
- The blade is narrow – The blade width is only 2.5 cm for that it takes a lot of time to complete the shaving.
- Does not follow the contours – The contour following feature is not impressive. When you will cut the hair from different area, you have to lift the blade.
Verdict
The Gillette fusion Proglide STYLER is for somebody who faces difficulties to shave and trim with a full-size shaver or trimmer.
It is a very simple and narrow device that can perform in any area of your face and body without difficulties.
It could be a multi grooming device for men. The only problem with the product is non-rechargeable.
If you do not like to buy extra batteries regularly, you can try the Philips Norelco Multigroom 3000 in the similar price range.
Overall, the Gillette STYLER is a good product and I recommend you go out and test it out.
As Gillette offers 90 days money back guarantee, you can try and return if it can not fulfill your satisfaction.
Hi there! Such a great write-up, thank you!
Can I buy the styler replacement combs separately?
I find that after a while the combs become like rubber and cannot be used. The razor works fine but it’s the combs that need replacing.
Thank you
