Beards are in fashion, but facial hair needs to be kept somewhat trimmed and tidy for the typical office-bound guy.

Philips Norelco’s QT4070 Vacuum Beard Trimmer not only saves time by eliminating the daily sink cleanup that accompanies daily trimming, it also saves money by eliminating the expensive cost of straight blade razors.

Philips added an integrated vacuum system to one of their powerful trimmers that captures cut hairs for mess-free trimming. It has 18 secure length settings from 1/32 inch up to 23/32 inch (1mm up to 18mm) as well as a 1/64 inch (.5mm) stubble setting. A turbo power boost button boosts cutting and fan speed and a multi-functional display indicates battery life and hair length.

The Philips Norelco QT4070 Vacuum Beard Trimmer sells for anywhere between $50 and $60, depending on the retailer and is available at Best Buy, Target, Walgreens and Walmart stores.
