Who the Philips Norelco Multigroom Series 7000 Trimmer is for

Buy it if: Anyone wanting one device for beard, body, nose and ear grooming.

Avoid it if: Anyone who only trims a beard -- a dedicated beard trimmer does it better for less.

Who the Tweezerman Slant Tweezer Stainless Steel is for

Buy it if: Anyone who has repeatedly failed to grip fine hairs with cheaper tweezers.

Avoid it if: Anyone who wants a pointed tip for ingrown hairs -- that is a different tool.
