Now I can remember only the Philips Norelco Multigroom 7000 grooming machine comes with 5 years of warranty which Philips also owns. Well, I’m happy to say that the battery is absolutely outstanding. It actually exceeded the official number and I would constantly get more than 90 minutes of use from a single charge. Since this is a hybrid groomer, combining the functionality of a shaver and a trimmer, we’ll evaluate each of them separately. Shaving Imagine the battery dying and leaving you with one hairy leg or arm. It happened to me and it’s no fun. With the Bodygroom 7000 (BG7030/49 and BG7040/42), the only part that will need to be changed once it wears out is the foil head.

Since 100% waterproof, you can use the foil head with shaving cream, foam, gel, soap, and water for refreshing wet shaving. So if you’re looking for a very capable shaver for down there, the Philips Bodygroom 7000 will be more than suitable. I appreciate the new model for its more powerful battery, and it’s obviously better than the older ones. LED Battery Indicator:Battery Life: Nothing’s worse than your body trimmer dying in the middle of a close shave — all of the trimmers in our guide run from 40-90+ minutes on a single charge, so you’re confident you’ll get through a full trim. Most of the time though, the trimming and cutting will involve both the foil and one of the blades. You can even use up and down strokes over the same area, but the most efficient way is to lead with the lower blade. First of all, it glides so much easier over the skin compared to other trimmers like the one on the BG2040. It’s not quite as good as the Panasonic ER-GK60-S for example, but a lot better than other Philips groomers.

Well, I’m glad to say that these problems are gone with the BG7030/BG7040. It is really smooth and efficient and it takes me less time to shave compared to using other body groomers. Certainly, very few body groomers have dual-sided technology, which offers super flexibility in choice. #The Foil Shaver Head: The trimmer end of the tool also works perfectly well. We would have liked the option to trim to 1 or 2mm rather than starting all the way at 3mm, but still - along with the foil end it provides a good balance of trimming options.As a result, you can be assured about the shaver’s battery status and charging status by the indicator. Travel-Friendly: I personally trim the hair on my legs, forearms, chest, and stomach area using the trimmer of the BG7030.
