Veo que se quejan algunos en los comentarios, pero a mi me ha servido mucho, es cierto que no es tan ergonomico, y los materiales no se sienten premium, pero hace bien su trabajo, solo necesitas practica para hacerlo bien y paciencia. No es como razurar con una navaja/rastrillo, ni tampoco como depilacion con cera, pero ayuda a no tener largo los bellos y se ve limpia la espalda. Yo lo uso pasandolo como si estuviera rascando la espalda, para que las navajas corten bien todo, limpio las zonas y vuelvo a pasarlo donde sea necesario.

If you buy the ManGroomer, brace yourself. Doing the job will take a LONG time, and it’s gonna hurt.
If you look at the pictures, notice that the clipper head is nearly perpendicular to the shaft of the device. Holding it as intended (or any other way you can think of) corrects this, so that the blades are exactly perpendicular to your skin. So the cutters don’t cut the hair, they cut your skin, and PULL the hairs. I tried this for a painful half-hour or so before my man pride would finally (and every bit as hairy I was at the start) allow me to admit that I had missed this fatal flaw before buying the device.
Reviewers who reported the ManGroomer effective either failed to mention they had help, or were lying about using it alone. The only way to get the cutter to do anything to the hair but annoy it is to stand two feet behind yourself, ignore the extensible handle, and hold the main body at a shallow angle to the skin so that the head is almost parallel to the surface, as you would a clipper used on a beard, sideburns, or a dog. Just for fun, I tried this on part of my chest, and it worked great.
Just in case you’re wondering, the angled handle will not let you circumvent this problem. The number of angles is limited, the one you need is not one of the possibilities, and the arms don’t lock in place anyway, so even if you come close, it just falls down. Oh and, by the way, they don’t tell you (some reviewers did), but this is not an “electric” device. It takes AA batteries, so if for some bizarre reason you wanted one, this would be the better buy over the costlier rechargeable version.

Prodotto ottimk e funzionale. Sicuramente non ha la potenza dei modelli piu evoluti ma fa il suo dovere. Forse un po delicato e leggero quando lo allunghi, pertanto fare attenzione

This is what is called as a man saver – No more unwanted back hair and twisting and turning to remove it

My Mangroomer got delivered today from Amazon. I glanced at the instructions (not that there’s much to know about it), popped in a couple batteries, went into the bathroom, took off my shirt, and went to work. In about 10 minutes, my back was smooth. It was definitely the easiest solution I ever used for removing back hair.
Pros
=============
1) It works extremely well.
2) It’s tricky in that you need two mirrors (a bathroom mirror and hand mirror suffice) and the motions you use don’t come naturally. You kind of have to feel where you’re moving it. But you get used to it and it’s actually very easy, which is nice. Just relax and take your time and soon you’ll have all the excess hair off your back.
3) It kind of feels nice. Like a mild back scratcher. It didn’t leave any marks on me and doesn’t feel excessively sharp.
Cons
=============
1) It’s not the sturdiest appliance. The plastic is lightweight and if you drop it, I can see it breaking. It folds open but feels a little loose. This doesn’t affect the performance as the pressure you apply keeps it rigid, but it still has that initial loose feel to it.
2) The hair you shave off seems attracted to the plastic like static. A minor annoyance, but it’s something that will have you wiping it off with a rag to get rid of all that hair clinging to it.
Things to Note
==============
I see they sell extra heads. The fact that they do suggests that the heads have a lifespan. Also, there is no cap or cover for the blade. The blade itself isn’t overly sharp or pointy, so unless you gouge yourself, you shouldn’t have any scratches. It doesn’t remove hair completely smooth like you just waxed or use a hair removal cream, but it still does a very very nice job.
Advice for How to Use
=======================
I held it by the blade part of the shaft near the joint, reached back, and then brought it from the center of my back outwards. Switching arms, that took care of my lower back. I then used the full telescoping handle and went from above, like in the illustration, and that took care of my upper back. I recommend using the mirror to see where there’s hair, and then just going by the feel of it. You can hear when the blade comes in contact with hair and can feel the parts of your back that you’ve done (like getting your back scratched). Then use the mirrors again to see where you missed. The important thing to do is to relax and take your time. Hold it with a firm grip since I don’t recommend dropping it, and soon you’ll get the hang of it.
I’ve gone through a lot to remove my back hair over the years. For the first time, I can do it all myself with little effort. I’m definitely happy I got this item.
I rate it four stars. It would have gotten a five-star rating had it been built a little more rugged. I see there is a rugged model, but for the pricing, I think this one should have been made a little tougher. Still, it’s very very effective and it’s easy. That makes it a good purchase.

I am a hairy guy and the the product is a very welcome tool to make myself more presentable. I have a couple of things to add though.
First, I hesitate to call the Mangroomer a “shaver.” It does not “shave” nor does it leave your skin smooth without trace of hair. It is more like a clipper, although it does clip the hair very close to the skin. The end result would be something like what you would see if you shaved the area and looked at it the next day or so. Basically stubble.
Next, the clipper can be abrasive. You have to be careful not to press too hard or else your skin will get hurt. Just provide enough pressure so that the clipper makes contact with your skin. No more, or you may end up as disgruntled as some reviewers here seem to be. This pain is easy to avoid, so don’t condemn the Mangroomer just because you aren’t using it the right way.
Lastly, some people complain that the clipper won’t cut hair, and say that it pulls instead. This is the result of trying to clip an area too quickly. If you go slow and steady, then the clipper will work better. The best way to use the clipper is to move it in the opposite direction of the hair growth while simultaneously moving it back and forth about an inch, if that makes sense. Instead of just getting an area in one wide sweep, go slow and move the clipper back and forth in an effort to get all the hair. I will admit that if you are clipping long hair, the trimmer may pull slightly. But you shouldn’t have long hair once you start clipping it regularly!
I have tried shaving my back with the Razorba. While it worked great the first time, I ended up getting a bunch of ingrown hairs and razor bumps on my neck, shoulders and back. When I tried to shave my back again a few days later, the razor cut into all the bumps caused by the first session and it was a horrible experience. What I do now is attach my cheap Remington foil shaver (about $30 on Amazon and works beautifully. I use it for my face regularly) to the Razorba head (instead of a razor blade) with two zip ties and shave my back with it. This is a great way to get a smooth feel to the area you want to rid hair from if using an actual razor blade won’t work for you. The Mangroomer removes the hair enough so the foil shaver is functional (foil shavers only shave stubble – don’t try them on longer growth. They pull!) and the foil shaver makes everything smooth.
One last tip is to use lithium batteries. My Mangroomer eats normal batteries from breakfast.
Oh, and waxing hurts like hell, and is very expensive. This is what works best for me. Hopefully it helps someone else out.
From one hairy guy to another.
