Question for you bearded guys

I've been using a Wahl full size "haircut" device for when my beard gets a little long and carefully using the sideburn trimmer on a Phillips shaver between times.

I'm getting tired of the clunkyness of the Wahl with the clip-on length dodads and the shaver is acting up.

I've been looking at one-size-fits-all devices and came across this. I've watched a couple of YouTube videos and it seems to be just what I need.

What say you?

I tend to keep my beard trimmed to between 1/4 and 1/2 inch.

I use something similar. This one has lasted a good while but at these prices a couple of years is fine.

Been using the old Wahl for about 40 years. No problems. It ain't broke.

Looks like the gadget will do the trick, but for 1/2 inch it uses an attachment.

I've used a version of this since about 1990. The latest version is li-ion rechargeable.

I take it traveling. Back when I kept my hair (I shave it now), I could use this while traveling to keep my regular hair short.

I'm lazy and live in a small town. I hit the local barber lady every 4-6 weeks, and if it is above the neck line of my t-shirt it gets a #1 buzz. Her prices just went up to $9 from $7... I give her 15. Usually in winter I'll extend that and go a few months, then when it warms up again I tell her of my usual but let her decide what looks best since all the options are there so to speak. If I don't like it, well, we can just run a #1 blade over everything above the neck line...

Well, I pay more than that, but I don't have a steady hand anymore so get the full service when I get my haircut.
