Philips Se ries 9000 BT9297/13 £80, philips.co.uk

The best trimmer for general beard maintenance, this has a largely superfluous laser (for ultra-straight edging, supposedly) but also boasts the very best blades in the business.

Panasonic ER-GD60 £50, panasonic.co.uk

For slightly longer beards, this is the one to go for. Its unusual, ‘side-on’ cutting action, where you pull the shaver through your hirsute tresses more like a comb, soon becomes second nature.

Braun BT3022 £18, braun.co.uk

This offers precise adjustment and good performance on shorter facial rugs. Braun also does various multi-packs, pairing this with heads for everything short of cutting your Sunday roast.

Philips OneBlade Pro £50, philips.co.uk

The best trimmer for those with sensitive skin, this uses innovative OneBlade technology. It’s good for both your face and your downstairs, although you may wish to change heads in between.
