[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think the the Braun Exact Series EN 10 Ear and Nose trimmer is extrordinary. Thank you Braun for giving me this free to try. I already threw away my other trimmer. It trims precise and doesnt tug or pull. Its very compact. Guys usually forget about the ears. So if you have a significant other or a girlfriend you can stash it in the purse. So the one time she says your ear hairs are long and disgusting and your going to a wedding, you have the trimmer in her purse. Awesome

Works Pretty Well

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had never used an Ear or Nose Trimmer before getting this and was cautious about any potential pulling.
Packaging: My Braun Ear and Nose Hair Trimmer came in an easy to open package. No scissor to get into a product is always a plus. It also comes with the AA battery that is required.
Device: The battery is easily inserted into the bottom of the device via a quarter turn twist off cap. It is lightweight and easily maneuverable as long as you have a good size opening
Use: The instructions to say not to insert more than a 1/4" into a cavity. I can't really determine the measurement while trimming so I stayed cautious. I used it in my nose to remove the few hairs that like to hangout. It took me about three attempts to get the one long hair that likes to join with my mustache. No pain from the cutting process.
Cleanup: The cutting head removes easily with a quarter turn at the top for easy rinsing.
Overall I like this little guy for it's lightweight and pain free trimming. My nose feels a little irritated from trying to precisely get the one main culprit but overall seems good.
Received this free from Braun for posting an honest review

Slightly underwhelmed...

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] PACKAGING: When I first received this package (for free from Braun in exchange for my honest review) I thought the packaging felt like it could "almost" be a premium product, but fell just shy in a couple areas. The colors were vibrant and modern and the Braun name commands a certain level of respect in the consumer product category, but the plastic enclosure holding everything together just felt a little "cheap".
CONTENTS: That being said, when I opened the package, I was not entirely surprised by the lack of substance to the device. It felt light in my hand (which could be a plus, allowing me greater control while using) but it felt like cheap plastic that likely wouldn't last. Pulling the cap off to insert the battery only confirmed this feeling.
PROCESS: I've never used a trimmer for ear or nose hair. On the periodic occasions when I see a stray hair, I use tweezers and pluck to remove the problem. I had, however, seen these products quite frequently (seems to be an annual "stocking stuffer" for some reason) so was eager to try it out and see if it was worth storing another device. Unfortunately I was underwhelmed with performance. I wasn't entirely confident how far up my nostril I should be sticking this thing, and even rotating along the outer edge, I felt like it didn't remove as much hair as I would have liked. What it did, remove, however, was painless.
RESULTS: Based off the rest of my review above, I think that this product can be useful, but perhaps with the limited amount of nose hair I have, my experience was sub par. I can't fully compare, however, since I've never used another brand before. I give it points for literally being painless (nothing worse that the painful tug of a nose hair) but I think it fell short of my expectations given the brand. If you're in the market though, this is certainly worth a try.

What you should know

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First off... you should determine if you actually need a ear and nose trimmer before considering this. In my opinion, this product would be best suited if you have actual hair to remove! In my case, it's a periodic occasion where I find myself plucking an extra long nose hair, and for general daily use, this is a bit overkill.
That being said, I think the product does what you would expect. It feels a bit cheap/flimsy right out of the box, but given that it's a nose trimmer and won't have daily use, there probably doesn't need to be too much substance to it. I felt like it didn't remove as much as I had expected (I've never used a nose trimmer before and am used to the "close shave" provided by a normal electric razor) but I can't say whether this is more or less effective than what is currently on the market. But Braun is a trustworthy/quality brand, so I would imagine that this is on par with what else is out there.
Disclosure: I received the Braun® Exact Series EN 10 Ear & Nose Trimmer for free from Braun in exchange for my honest review.

Good product! One warning though!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Lets start with the packaging. I really like the fact that the included battery is displayed clearly in the front of the packaging so there is no doubt as whether a battery is included or not. After opening the packaging I slipped the battery right in and used the trimmer. I was impressed with how quiet it is. It trimmed very well and did not pull hairs at all. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is that when cleaning the trimmer per the manufacturer's instructions, the cutting blade fell out and nearly went down the drain. Luckily it did not and I was able to piece it back together. Overall this is a good product and I would recommend it to my friends. Just be aware that the blade does come out when cleaning. You can see the pieces in the picture included with this review.

no pain on the cut

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Some trimmers will pinch and pull your nose and ear hair. This product has done the opposite it trims ear and nose hair smoothly and pain free. Battery powers lets you bring it on the go.

Easy to use!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great trimmer and size. Extremely easy to maneuver around sensitive areas. It included one AA battery which makes it even more convenient than finding one at home or having to go back to the store to purchase.
