7 Best Beard Trimmers With Vacuums

1. Remington MB6850 Vacuum Stubble and Beard Trimmer (Best Value)

Editor’s Rating: 4.7/5.0

View on Amazon

Remington will be appearing a lot on this list. Not only are they among the most trusted names for affordable trimmers and hair accessories, but they also have a larger than average selection of trimmers with attached vacuums.

This is a good all-purpose trimmer. It has 11 different length settings. You’ll have to remove the blades to wash them, but the whole process is fairly quick and easy. The MB6850 is a cordless trimmer and offers about 90 minutes of runtime on a single charge.

That’s an impressive battery for a trimmer in this price range. We’ve taken that as proof that Remington has really invested in improving battery life.

A lot of people worry that when you’re adding accessories to your trimmer, you’ll lose other capabilities and advantages. That’s not a problem in this case. The blades are self-sharpening, which means that you’ll get a precision cut for a lot longer.

Now, let’s talk about the vacuum. The vacuum on this trimmer is rated to capture up to 95% of all trimmings. That means you’ll only have to worry about 5% of those trimmings on your sink and bathroom floor.

That tiny amount of hair is a lot easier to deal with in the moment, and a lot less noticeable when you’re in a rush.

Overall, we think that this is a good mid-range option. The trimmer is suitable for all hair types. It’s reasonably flexible and has a lot of trimming options.

Best of all, the vacuum is effective enough to save you a lot of time.

2. Philips Norelco Vacuum Beard Trimmer Series 7200

Editor’s Rating: 4.7/5.0

View on Amazon

Philips Norelco is another name that you’ll recognize at the end of this list if you don’t recognize it already.

The 7200 is a good, affordable, option if you’re looking for something with a few more settings than the Remington, and don’t mind paying a little more to have them.

The vacuum on this trimmer isn’t quite as good, it’s only rated to grab about 90% of hair trimmings. Still, that’s more than enough to make a huge dent in your trimming clean up. That saves you time, effort, and energy.

Hey, less time, effort, and energy? That sounds like it would make it a lot easier to stay on top of your grooming routine. Perfect beards anyone?

The rechargeable battery takes about an hour to reach a full charge. A single charge gives you an average of 80 minutes runtime. It has another serious advantage as well. You can still use this trimmer while it’s charging. Just plug it in and go.

Remember that we mentioned this was a better trimmer when it comes to multiple settings? It’s got 20 different length settings, from .5mm through 10mm trimming.

The 7200 is a great option if you’re looking to create a fade or another high-detail style at home. It’s also a good choice if you’re just looking to maintain your fade between appointments with your stylist.

The blades are made from stainless steel. They are self-sharpening. They’re also easy to wash. So, you’ll save a little more money on blades using this trimmer as well.

3. Remington HKVAC2000A Vacuum Haircut Kit (Best Budget)

Editor’s Rating: 4.4/5.0

View on Amazon

We told you Remington would make several appearances on this list!

This model is a little different, but in a way, we really appreciate. Instead of being a trimmer that focuses on its utility as a facial hair trimmer, the Haircut kit is suitable for facial hair and for the hair on your scalp.

Of course, it’s only suitable for hairstyles you would usually cut and maintain at least partially with a trimmer. But only needing one trimmer for your facial hair and the hair on top of your head is a huge money saver.

Plus, this is a good way to cut and maintain your kids’ hair too!

Despite being incredibly affordable, this kit comes with basically everything you’ll need to start cutting and trimming your hair at home. It’s a 16-piece kit, included 6 trimmer length combs, scissors, and a detail comb.

This trimmer also has an advantage in that it’s a dual-motor trimmer. Instead of using a single motor to run both the vacuum and the blades, it has two. Separating the motors helps in a couple of ways, but the main effect is that you’ll get a longer life out of those motors.

A single motor running two operations will stress and overheat much more easily. The dual-motor system is a little louder, but both motors will stay in top operational condition a lot longer.

You’ll also get the blade oil you need in this set.

4. Philips Norelco Beard Trimmer 7300

Editor’s Rating: 4.8/5.0

View on Amazon

We’ll admit upfront that Philips Norelco’s 7300 trimmer is one of the more expensive trimmer options out there. It’s worth it if you don’t mind putting down a significant investment in a long-lasting grooming tool.

We also know that there are plenty of people out there who neither want nor need a more expensive trimmer for their usual grooming routine. If you’re one of those, this probably isn’t the trimmer for you.

That said, this is a highly effective and flexible premium trimmer. It’s 18 settings will take you from 1mm through 18mm cutting lengths. That’s enough to get the fine precision you need, through making a significant trim for your beard or hairstyle.

It got a slightly shorter battery life than the other Philips Norelco trimmer on our list, only about 75 minutes on a 60-minute charge.

But, this trimmer also gets a longer than average consumer warranty, a full 2 years.

In addition to a powerful vacuum for picking up the trimming as you work, the 730 also features a turbo boost. The boost significantly increases blade speed, helping you make big cuts faster. The boost also reduces the number of passes you have to make in a single area.

The stay-sharp blades and easy-to-wash design also help save your time and money.

Even if you’re trimming and touching up every day, you won’t find yourself spending a lot of time on cleanup and maintenance of your bathroom or this trimmer.

5. Wahl Professional Vacuum Clipper #8566 (Top Pick)

Editor’s Rating: 4.9/5.0

View on Amazon

If you know Wahl‘s product line, you also probably know that they designed most of their trimmers for professional use. These high-quality trimmers are designed for long use, maintaining sharp blades, and staying cool while operating.

They’re also designed to give some of the highest precision cuts in the business. Of course, since they’re targeted at professionals instead of consumers.

While we don’t recommend buying a Wahl trimmer the first trimmer you ever get, the 8566 is a good option once you’re looking to upgrade to a better trimmer. A bit more expensive than most consumer models, we found that the solid construction and long-lasting power of the 8566 was more than enough to warrant our Top Pick designation.

If you’re someone who looks for your products to last years of heavy use, this may just be the right trimmer for you.

Despite a vacuum hose (this is designed for use in a barbershop after all), this trimmer only weighs a pound. Since the vacuum isn’t contained directly in the handheld, it’s also a lot more comfortable in your hand.

If you’re planning to use this trimmer to keep your kids’ hair looking fresh, this trimmer will let you trim several heads in a row without any problems.

We were also impressed that this trimmer comes in a metal housing. That protects the motor. It also means you won’t have to worry about the trimmer parts breaking, cracking, or getting scratched during normal operation.

The blade lever is also durable, reliable, and easy to use. It will allow you to make custom length adjustments with ease.

That said, we want to repeat that this isn’t a trimmer for beginners. It’s designed for professional use, and that means that utility has been prioritized over skill. Some of the safeguards included in a consumer trimmer simply aren’t included in this option.

6. Remington VPG6530 4-in-1

Editor’s Rating: 4.5/5.0

View on Amazon

The last Remington product on our list, this trimmer is another solid offering just slightly different from the two models we’ve already discussed on this list.

Like both of the other models, this Remington trimmer features a vacuum with a built-in capture chamber. It has a respectable runtime, a full hour. While that’s a little shorter than some of the trimmers on our list, it’s still one of the better runtimes in the business.

With the addition of 4 length combs (included), this trimmer has 13 different length settings. That’s a lot of flexibility for a trimmer in its price range.

A highly affordable selection, just a little more flexibility would have snagged this model our Best Bargain rating.

You also won’t have to worry about leaving your trimmer to charge only to discover that the battery wasn’t picking up any juice. The LED indicator on the bottom of the trimmer makes it clear when you’re getting a good charge.

This trimmer also comes with a precision trimmer for dealing with detail work and tricky areas. Perfect for trimming nose hairs and other unwanted facial hair, this accessory adds considerably to what you can do with your trimmer.

The vacuum picks up a significant portion of your trimmings. Its capture chamber is easy to use and empty. Cleanup is easy with this model.

7. Wahl Vacuum Trimmer Kit with powerful Suction for Beards

Editor’s Rating: 4.6/5.0

View on Amazon

This consumer model from Wahl comes with a lot of the advantages of their professional line. It’s repackaged into a plastic housing with a lithium-ion battery, but still offers the precision and a lot of the flexibility you’re looking for.

The blades are easy to remove and clean. It’s simple to keep this trimmer hygienic, cutting down on ingrown hairs, acne, and other skin irritations.

This trimmer also comes with more guide combs than any other model on our list. It has a full 9 combs and is designed to provide an incredibly wide array of grooming needs.

We also highly recommend this model for anyone who regularly needs to travel. It’s compatible with worldwide voltage settings, so you’ll be able to get a quick charge wherever you go.

It also features one of the most powerful vacuums on our list. This is a good option if other vacuum trimmers have failed you. The suction is more than up to most hair types, including thick coarse and even curly facial hair.

Convenience features like a full 90-minute run time (tied for the longest runtime on our list), and a LED charging indicator make this an incredibly easy to use machine. If you don’t want to use the professional-grade Wahl’s trimmer that’s our Top Pick for this list, this trimmer is a solid second option.
