I dont usually write reviews for anything but after reading mixed reviews of the mangroomer (back version) and ordering it I felt that I should add my results to the mix.
First of all, the hair on my back is light to moderate so its not overly heavy or thick by any means, but the mangroomer actually shaved/clipped all of it off neatly and quickly. A lot of people have complained about the red marks it leaves on the skin, but I think thats just because your technique needs improvement. I used short strokes sometimes going back and forth and not pressing down too hard onto my skin when I could help it. After my first time I did have a couple red lines on my back but really because I misjudged an angle or position and I dug the clipper head into my skin harder than I should have. It took me 12 minutes to clear the back hair off completely in just the first attempt.
The great thing about this clipper is that I have used it successfully on my shoulders and the heavier hair on the insides of my thighs as well as my back. Its easy and fast. The only places Id be concerned about guys are the privates and, even though it did an OK job, it still managed to nick a spot in a delicate place because its a bit more heavy duty than you need for the manparts. Id stick with a razor or less intrusive electric product.
One reason I shave is because I am a bodybuilder and I need the muscles unobstructed by hair. I used to have to pay for unpleasant waxing or beg a friend to shave my back. The mangroomer has completely freed me from any of that fuss and now all it takes is a few minutes every couple weeks to get my back smooth and clear of unwanted hair.
Overall Id have to give this thing a big thumbs up and considering its price is less than one waxing session Id recommend it to any guy to at least give it a try. (Just go slow and use a mirror, especially the first time)

This is such a simple idea. Anybody could have marketed it. Too bad it was this company. I hadnt shaved in a while. It was very painful on my long hair. I actually couldnt finish with it. I normally use a beard trimmer. I expected this to have a similiar cutting head. It does not. As long as you keep up you grooming this item should be bearable. I guess I want a little more than that out of a product.

    Have been looking at unsightly back hair in the mirror for a while. Finally decided to take the step to get rid of it. Mangroomer works like a charm. Now I'm kicking myself for not trying this sooner. Easy to use and does the job. Make sure you have a few mirrors to help you see what you are doing. Also recommend you do this somewhere that is easy to clean up. I put a few newspapers underneath me and then just folded them up and put in the trash.

    Works fine. Just wish they would make the quality of the plastic better. Not really sure how to keep it clean, because afer a while the blades start to rust.

                I threw this in the trash after the second try. It's build quality is no better than a disposable plastic party-favor. The cheap blades were not sharpened precisely. The first time, it provided a terrible shave. The second time, it caused me to bleed. Good idea, but built to very low standards.

                Slight irritation but not that bad. It's pretty cheaply made, quite a rip off for [$] however it does work as intended and the reach is perfect. I have longer hair and it really did a good job.

                It worked ok but hard to use on your own back. I had to have my wife trim the back hair because I couldn't see to do it myself. It irritated the skin leaving red marks in places. I would still use the mangroomer except on the third use it started smoking and quit working. It got so hot that the plastic actually melted in the battery compartment.

                  This is so easy to use!! With the extended handle, you can reach everywhere on your back! The plastic is kind of cheap, but then again this is so reasonably priced that if I had to buy a new one each year I wouldn't mind. I have used this for 3 months now with no issues!!

                    Was expecting it to provide as close of a shave as the cordless mustache trimmer I had been using but that wasn't the case. Also requires many more strokes to remove the hair. As a result a back trim takes about twice as long but I am now able to do this on my own. Definitely works better on shorter hair. If I was more flexible and could reach all the spots, my preference would be the mustache trimmer.
