Top floor of Robinson's at Airport Plaza. They have a pretty decent selection.

Boots

the adjustable comb guide is that an attachment?

Have you used this razor? What are your comments about it?

What Boots did you get this at because I looked at one the other day and could not find it?

The trimmers at Robinson and Cebtral are marked up 300% compared to North American prices. But they do have a decent selection.

I'd suggest a Chinese import from a local market like wararot. Much cheaper and less risk. You may lost some skin in the process, but the risk:reward ratio is fair.

Zeek, sorry I missed your response; just saw this now.

Yes, the guide is fully adjustable from a short stubble to about 9 mm.

I bought it at Boots in Kad Suan Kaew shopping center, that's the other big one called Centrun (for Central) by the locals situated near the northwestern corner of the moat.

If they don't have in stock, twist their arms and get them to order you one.

If you click on the photos in my post, you can zoom in on the box details and clearly see the model number, etc.

Good Luck in your quest!

HI,

I am also looking for a beard trimmer - which local market in central Bangkok would one recommend? Central , Boots, etc are sooo expensive....

After having 2 or 3 cheap chinese ones bite the dust over the last couple of years I stumped up the cash for a recent remington in airport plaza..

Well worth it in the end.. Buy expensive, cry once.

I buy the Chinese imports at the little kiosk by the back door basement floor of Kad Suan Kaew. Rechargeable cordless model, with three double-sided length guides. Personally, I can't use the trimmers that have the single guide that slides up and down for adjustment. My beard is too thick and too curly. The adjustable ones either clog up on me, or the guide slips to a different setting as I use it. The clip-on guides work well. I use a 3mm for my head, and a 12mm for my beard. I remove the blade head after each use and brush it out, and put a drop or two of oil on the blades every few months. These clippers last me about 10 years before they either get too dull or crap out, but for 400-600 baht, I figure I've gotten my money's worth out of them.

Thinking about it.. I saw IIRC phillips ones much cheaper than airport plaza in the dept store in Khad San Geow.. Like 800 - 1200b instead of the 2 - 3k in Airport plaza..

10 years !!! How many of them have you had bought from here ??

I have never had a set of the cheap ones last a year before the battery's crapped out and stopped holding a decent charge.

Two for myself, one of which I still use today, and two others for friends, both of which are still working. I suppose if these were something that I used every other day, or even once a week, they wouldn't last as long. But I only use them once a month at most, and am very conscientious about keeping the blade head clean and freely moving, so there is less drain on the motor and battery.
