Other than trying to figure out exactly how to please women on a consistent basis, men face few greater chronic hassles than shaving. Now we have a gadget that addresses both issues: a cordless shaver that vacuums up the hair as it cuts, keeping the sink fuzz-free.
Norelco’s AccuVac Beard & Moustache Trimmer will be showing up in stores this month with a price ranging from $29.99 to $49.99.

We tried the cutter two ways: to trim a full beard and to take that full beard down to that ultrastylish stubble level.
The vacuum feature worked perfectly in the trim mode, and the cutting edge, with a flexing comb guide, worked quickly, with no painful hair tugging. But when we switched the comb guide to its closest setting, the stubble level, the vacuum was overwhelmed, as might be expected when cutting down a rain forest. In standard use, though, the vacuum is a real hassle-reducer. She’ll love you for cleaning up all of your shaving residue.
One other huge plus is the comb-guide height adjuster, which works simply by turning a ring on the shaver body. That means there are no comb attachments to drop behind the toilet.
