Product Description The all-over Bodygrooming system, with specific trimming and shaving attachments, optimized for sensitive bodyzones
Amazon.com Product Description Trim and shave all of your body zones safely and comfortably with the Philips Norelco Professional BodyGrooming System. This five-piece all-over system provides a perfect trim and smooth shave, even in extra-sensitive body zones. Rechargeable and cordless, this efficient system also comes with uniquely designed attachments, including an Extra Sensitive (XS) trimming comb, Extra Large (XL) trimming comb, trimming attachment, shaving attachment, and a store-and-charge stand. 
The Bodygrooming System works both in the shower or out, wet or dry. View larger. | 
The Extra Sensitive attachment is perfect for areas like the groin, and the Extra Large works well for large areas like the chest and back. View larger. | Professional Results, Even in Sensitive Areas The Bodygrooming System takes trimming and shaving to a new level, so you can enjoy professional results at home. Its ergonomic design and separate trimming and shaving attachments offer an easy and painless way to achieve the look you want. You can also use it on all body zones, even your extra sensitive skin areas, such as your chest and abs, underarms, groin area, legs, back, and shoulders. | With the included trimming attachments, you can achieve the perfect look even in your most sensitive skin spots, including the groin area. | | The hypoallergenic shaving foils gives you a close, comfortable shave with less irritation, even on the most sensitive skin and in the most sensitive areas. | | The chromium stainless steel blades provide an ultra-close shave, and gives long-lasting performance that is maintenance-free! | | Advanced Attachments For More Options The Bodygrooming System lets you control how much hair to remove with advanced attachments that offer dependable results. The Extra Sensitive (XS) trimming comb is specially designed for the groin area and underarms, while the Extra Large (XL) trimming comb works best in large areas like the chest and abs, legs, back and shoulders. You can also choose from five lock-in length settings for trimming without completely removing hair. When you're done, the attachments simply rinse clean for easy care. And for a close, smooth and complete shave, use the Bodygroomer System without any attachments. Expertly Handles Thick, Coarse Hair Men's body hair can be coarser than hair on the head and grow in multiple directions, making trimming or shaving certain body zones more challenging. With durable, self-sharpening, stainless steel blades that never need lubrication, and a hypoallergenic shaving foil that cuts with less irritation and protects against nicks and cuts, the Bodygrooming System is virtually maintenance free. This system is powerful enough to get through the thick, coarse hair areas, yet still gentle enough for your sensitive zones, and flexible enough to meet your unique grooming needs. Easy to Use Wet or Dry The Bodygrooming System is water-resistant, which makes it perfect for using in the shower. And if you prefer a dry cut, especially when you're trimming hair, this shaver works just as well dry. Whichever option is best for you, simply move the shaver against the direction of hair growth, stretching the skin when you move the shaving foil across it. The Bodygrooming System comes with a 45-day money back guarantee and a full two-year manufacturer's warranty. What's in the Box Bodygroomer, Extra Sensitive (XS) trimming comb, Extra Large (XL) trimming comb, trimming attachment, shaving attachment, store and charge stand, and a cleaning brush.

Really Good September 1, 2010 Orville T. Hopshacker III I mostly use mine to self groom my back, it reaches all areas with little effort. For other areas it has a clever height guide and does a good job. It easily mows down the 12 holdout hairs on my dome and it doesn't hurt my scalp when doing so.
Don't loan it to anyone, you'll never get it back! August 20, 2010 Terd Ferguson (Parts unknown.) I bought this for myself but my son ended up with it. He really loves it.... says it's the best he's ever used. On the bright side, he gave me his almost new Norelco G370 trimmer.
Pleased with my purchase so far... August 16, 2010 allyex (Washington, DC) I've only used this item once since purchasing it, but I have to say I'm impressed overall with its performance. It does exactly what it's supposed to: allows me to groom those sensitive areas quickly without having to worry about possible nicks or hair pulls. Easily it the best method I come across so far. Its light weight, shape, plus the fact that it stays cool make it very easy to manipulate while using (especially compared to the old electric hair clippers I was using before I bought the BG2030. The included heads and adjustable guards give you plenty of options for cutting to different lengths as well.
My only complaints: the base is required to charge the unit. That's another piece I need to worry about carrying when traveling. I would have preferred it if I had the option (as I do on my Panasonic shaver) to plug the BG2030 directly into the wall outlet without the base. It would have been nice if they had included a case or pouch as well, but I guess I could find something suitable online.
think Microsoft Paint August 9, 2010 Tired ... you have an image greater than 1280 x 1024. You select the Eraser tool ... the SMALLEST eraser tool. Your job is to make the image blank using only this tool ... except
a) you can't go faster than an ice cream truck in the summer even though you feel you're driving a Lamborghini
b) sometimes going over an area will ... do nothing at all: this seems random.
That was my experience with the Norelco BG2030. It took me about 1.5 hours to trim my arms, legs, and trunk. I think I can do it in about 45 mins - 1 hour next time with the lessons I learned, but my expectations were higher from the reviews than what the product delivered.
Anyway, I don't know if there's anything better out there, especially cheaper, so I will keep using it (cleanup was a breeze though) - it just seems like more work than a guy should be doing ...
bad switch August 4, 2010 Luke Rogers The first time I turned it on the switch went bad and would not shut the unit off.
A piece of crap!
