Built Quality

The trimmer handle itself is 32mm.

The full metal trimmer attachment, your primary cutting element, provides a close trim to the skin.

Blades are self-sharpening, so the users don’t need to oil the blades.

And this sharpness will remain after 2 years of use.

These tempered steel blades of Philips Norelco Multigroom 3000 will never break or rust.

The precision trimmer attachment utilizes a minuscule quarter-inch cutting surface and creates detailed lines.

The Philips MG3750 has 3 hair guards (9mm, 12mm, and 16mm).

Although these are labeled hair guards, they can easily be substituted for those wanting to trim their beards to longer lengths.

The 3 beard guards come in lengths of – 3mm, 5mm, and 7mm, along with a 1mm stubble guard.

The trimmer itself is very lightweight. It will easily fit on your hand. The machine dimensions are – 9.2 x 6.5 x 2.2 inches.

The socket for the small plug is situated at the bottom of the handle. This machine is only for cordless use.

The handle is not washable, but all the attachments of it are fully washable.

They are water resistant, so don’t worry about the water causing problems.

Note – the stubble guard looks ‘’light gray’’

The beard guards look ‘’dark gray’’

And the hair guards look ‘’black’’

Nose and Ear Trimmer

This attachment is for removing the unwanted hair on the nose and ear.

• Before trimming, ensure the nasal passages are clean, and your outer ear channel is wax-free.
• Never insert the tip more than 0.5cm/3/ 16inch. Otherwise, it can be the cause of an accident.
• Always clean the attachment after every use for hygienic reasons.

#Trimming the nose hair

• Just mildly move the tip in and out of the nose to remove the unwanted hair.

#Trimming the ear hair

• It is the same as removing the nose hair. Slowly move the tip into and outer channel of the ear.

The Precision Trimmer of Philips MG3750

To create fine lines, use the trimmer without the guard.

It will provide you a close work to the skin (0.5mm/1/32inch).

• Hold the trimmer straight, then move it upward and downward with gentle pressure.

Battery Life

Phillips Norelco Multigroom 3000 is powered by a lithium-ion battery.

This battery will provide the machine with 60 minutes of running juice per 8 hours of charge.

The charging time is really so long!

And it may be a big issue for you compared with the Philips Norelco Multigroom 7000‘s battery life.

But the price range of Philips Norelco Multigroom 3000 makes us surrender.

There is also a quick charge option.

After 5 minutes of charge, the battery will provide enough juice for 1 trim.

No battery indicator will show you the battery percentage or empty battery status.

Since there is no LED battery indicator, I had to set an alarm during charge. But I think it is not a big deal.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Only the attachments are fully washable.

Important: don’t use scouring pads or aggressive cleaning stuff to clean the attachments.

• Be certain the machine is switched off when you will go to remove the attachment from the handle.
• Wipe the handle with a dry cloth or tissue.
• Blow out the accumulated hair from the hair chamber.
• Now blow out the accumulated hair from attachments or guards.
• Now hold the attachments or guards under hot running water.
• Finally, carefully shake off excess water from the attachments/guards; let the parts air dry.
• Since the blades are self-sharpening and the manufacturer did not recommend oiling the blades, so you don’t need to do this.

What’s in the Box?

After unpacking the interesting Philips Norelco Multigroom 3000 package, you will be surprised to see many attachments.

I got the following items after unboxing the package-

• A full-size steel trimmer
• 1 nose and ear trimmer
• 1 precision trimmer
• Beard guard for – 7mm/9/32inch.
• 1 Beard guard for – 5mm/3/16inch.
• Beard guard for – 3mm/1/8inch.
• Stubble guard for – 1mm/3/6inch.

• 1 Hair guard for – 12mm/15/32 inch.
• Hair guard for – 16mm/21/32 inch.

It’s a big deal to find too many things in an electrical grooming product package, although very cheap in price.

Verdict

I have to say that the Multigroom 3000 is a quality trimmer, and at a price point, it is well worth it.

That said, there are a few notable drawbacks to keep in mind.

As mentioned earlier, the lack of the foil and the shaver attachments will limit your ability to have a smooth shave, but this should be made up for the savings in your pocket.

You are good to go if you are happy with the stubble finish.

Now, where the Multigroom 5000 and 7000 have 18 and 23 built-in length settings.

And they both use a beard attachment comb that can be adjusted on the device Multigroom 3000.

There are not many length options, as far as switching in and out of the guards, there is no issue.

Here is the snap-and-click attachments that made it quick and easy to move from one to the next.

I would have preferred to have more grooming lengths similar to other Multi-groom devices the sizes available were close enough.

Where I saw the Philips Norelco Multigroom 3000’s advantage on the precision trimmer, this is the smallest profile I have come across the quarter-inch frame fits into tight spaces easily.

Overall, I am impressed with the result of this trimmer.

It is not fully featured as the Multigroom 5000 or Multigroom 7000, but it is understandable considering its bargain price.
