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.

I received my Mangroomer faster than expected. I put it to the test of mowing the thicket on my back immediately which it did a really good job of. Some may not like the light design, but I think that is what makes it easier to use when extended. Is a little awkward to use at first just takes practice. Price is good so you can't go wrong. Would buy again.

What a difference! Fast, simple, easy. It works in both directions which cut down time. I live in Hawaii so it's made my life easier. I'm at the beach in no time.

I found the Mangroomer almost by accident, and I had trouble believing such a simple invention would be effective. I'm very pleased to say that I was wrong. The Mangroomer does everything that it promises. For me, my back appeared hair-free for almost a whole week. A much better option than waxing.

Comments about MANGROOMER Do-It-Yourself Electric Back Hair Shaver 201-12, 1 ea:

The Mangroomer is not completely ineffective, but it has several big flaws. It works best on areas like the shoulders, where it's easier to control the angle of the blades and the pressure, but I can shave my shoulders with a regular clipper that costs half as much. No, you buy this thing for the long angled handle, so you can shave the hard to reach areas. And that's where it works worst. Trouble is, it's light and not well weighted; which means when shaving your back, it is difficult to keep the groomer blades flat against your skin. And when it presses at an angle, the result is (1) pain, (2) scratches, and (3) poor hair removal. It's also poorly constructed. On mine, the power switch broke after just a few uses, so now I must remove the batteries to shut it off.

The Mangroomer works, but best if there is not a lot of hair. I have a lot of back hair, and had to use a regular electric trimmer to get the volume down. Then it worked to cut the residual hair. Like several other reviewers, at first I was disappointed and didn't think the unit worked. Once I was able to use it for maintenance, it is a functional unit. And I have to say, I am much happier without all of the chest and back hair.

This is an excellent product. I've used the Mangroomer a few times and am very staisfied with it. The handle is very versatile in that it allows you to set it at any desired length for different angles and the closeness of the shave is great. I would recommend it to anyone that wants to have a do-it-yourself soltution to removing back hair.

I just received the mangroomer from my girlfriend over the weekend. I was really suprised when I saw it lets you shave off all your back hair by yourself. It works awesome! I have never been one to get waxed or lasered since it is way too painfull. If I knew about this shaver before I would have bought it immediately since I hate having my back hair with a passion. It is one of those things you just hate that you have every time you see a guy who has none and doesn't know how great he's got it. Anyhow, I used the shaver in my bathroom and was impressed how long it got when you extend the black handle portion of it. I seriously could reach everywhere on my whole back. However, it was a little strange to hit each area that easy in the beginning. All in all, it is awesome to get this shaver and that I can now shave my back. It really makes a huge difference for me as I always hated having back hair. I think any guy with it would love to get this shaver and their girlfriends will as well.

I rarely would ever write a review for a product, but this shaver has really made my life better and I want to thank the company for it and I am writing them as well. This is a great tool for anyone like myself who has suffered with the dilemma of some back hair. I only have a couple of small patches on my lower back, but they have bothered me forever and now with this shaver I can get rid of them effortlessly. It is about time an easy option has been made for all men to have a smooth back. I am extremely impressed with the results and I feel this is an excellent product. I highly recommend for all men with any back hair and you will thank me for it.
