EDITOR’S NOTE: CHECK OUT OUR TOP BUDGET ALTERNATIVE, MERIDIAN

If you’re interested in Manscaped, we highly suggest you check out the Meridian trimmer. It’s lesser known but provides as good or better performance, at an unbeatable price.

Price: $79.99

The Manscaped Lawn Mower 3.0 is one of the newest editions in the Manscaped line of grooming tools. This third-generation Lawn Mower groin grooming trimmer is sleeker and more ergonomic than previous versions. It comes with a higher-powered 7000 RPM motor and an adjustable guard with 2 lengths.

Add in the 600 mAh Li-Ion rechargeable battery and charging dock and it’s hard to go wrong with this new Manscaped design.

Manscaped was founded by Paul Tran and Steve King as a solution to the taboo discussion of male trimming below the waistline. They didn’t think this topic should be taboo anymore and wanted to cause a shift in mass perception. They did this with the creation of Manscaped trimming products in 2016.

They created a team of researchers and scientists to help create the best grooming products for the closest shave. At the same time, they wanted to increase awareness, so the Manscaped blog was formed. They cover topics far and wide in the health, wellness, and grooming spaces.

Manscaped doesn’t just create quality grooming products though. They are passionate about worldwide education into the topics of grooming (manscaping, if you will) and men’s health education. Manscaped partnered with the Testicular Cancer Society to help increase awareness into this particular previously taboo issue.

Manscaped has also gone one step further and has partnered with Pride Foundation. This foundation promotes the health, safety, and livelihood of all members in the LGBTQ+ community worldwide. By partnering with this foundation, Manscaped wanted to show solidarity with their employees and customers within this community.

Manscaped has created a universal high-performance grooming tool. The Manscaped Lawn Mower 3.0 touts a 90 minute uninterrupted run time. I can confirm this from my personal use. Their trimmers are exceedingly easy to use also. You just pop them out of the box, charge them overnight and you’re good to go.

Mine actually came with enough of a charge to perform a shorter trim and then I charged them overnight so I could really get into things the next day.

I was able to use my new Manscaped trimmer in the shower. This was a new experience for me all around, but an unexpectedly great one. Due to the ceramic blades, I felt no tugging or nicks no matter where I shaved. The blade guard, which allowed the trimmer to adjust the height of the shave, was a huge bonus.

This helped me get the desired length when trimming with minimal effort.

Another unexpected surprise was the built-in LED light. This wasn’t something I ever thought I would need. But, it was a great added feature that actually helped me get a better shave than I’ve previously ever gotten.

Ultimately, I’ve replaced my old Wahl standby with the Manscaped electric trimmer instead. It’s just so much more robust than any other trimmer I’ve ever had before. And it’s hard to go back once you’ve experienced a Manscaped trimming tool.

If you want a really close shave and don’t want to be nervous about causing any potential damage, then yes, Manscaped is worth it. Of course, it’s a bit more expensive than most other electric razors on the market. But, Manscaped has a ton of additional safety features that set it apart from other trimmers. $79.99 for the Manscaped Lawn Mower 3.0 is worth every penny to me. The fact that they stand behind their product and want to continue to create the best grooming experience helps me feel good about my purchases with them.

Meet Meridian – Our Best Price PickManscaped has since released the Lawn Mower 4.0 for $90, which, if you are searching for peak performance, is the way to go. However, for those that want 4.0 quality at a more accessible price, we recommend another top trimmer from Meridian. Meridian’s trimmer delivers the same close, gentle, safety-enhanced shave we love from Manscaped, but for a fraction of the price. Check out our Meridian review for an overview of the features that make this men’s grooming tool a standout, or shop it now, below.

Manscaped became part of the PCPC (Personal Care Products Council) soon after it launched. This council is a leading national trade association for cosmetics and personal care products companies. They help regulate quality, safety, and innovation within the personal care space.

All of the larger, more well-known companies within this genre are a part of this national organization as well. In order to be a part of this organization, your quality standards have to be in check.

When it comes to where Manscaped products are made, it can vary a bit. According to Paul Tran, the wet products (gels, body washes, creams, etc.) are made in California, where they are developed also. However, the electric products are purportedly designed in San Diego, but manufactured in China.

I can’t say that I’m a huge fan of this. It would boost my confidence in their quality if all of their goods were made in California, instead of overseas.

But, even with that being the case, their products do seem to hold up pretty well over time. As a company that is trying to propel the men’s grooming market to the next level, this only makes logical sense.

Manscaped gives an initial 10% off your first purchase if you sign up for their email list. They also have random specials on specific items or packages.

Before choosing an electric trimmer, most of us have a few questions we’d like answered. Since Manscaped specializes in razors for the more sensitive regions, there are a few more specific questions that need answers.

• Crop Preserver – $12.99 anti-chafing ball deodorant
• The Shears 2.0 – $19.99 luxury nail kit

Overall, if you are in the market for the ultimate electric trimmer experience, then Manscaped may be just what you’ve been looking for. Their products are created to last long, give the best shave and not irritate your skin. Most of the newer options are waterproof as an added bonus. The fact that Manscaped is dedicated to helping reduce testicular cancer by increasing worldwide knowledge doesn’t hurt either.
