According to our beard trimmer expert
With the Braun BT5090 beard trimmer, you can trim your beard to 25 lengths. Choose from lengths of 1 to 20 millimeters, adjustable in increments of 0.5 millimeters. You can use the two attachments for short or longer lengths. With the integrated precision trimmer, you neatly groom your sideburns and moustache. Thanks to the battery indicator, you'll always know when it's time to charge the device and you can prevent any nasty surprises. Forgot to charge the trimmer anyway? With 5 minutes of charging, you'll have enough power for 1 shave. To shave for 40 minutes, connect it to the charger for 1 hour. Cleaning is done in a jiffy: it's fully washable.

When opening the packaging it is already clear that it is a fairly luxurious beard trimmer. The parts feel sturdy and the trimmer feels good in the hand.
The following parts are included:
It also has a precision trimmer that you can activate by sliding it forward. That works very well. You do not have to remove the small attachment to be able to use it. You can clean the trimmer under water. The trimmer has 1 position, which is enough in my opinion. With my previous trimmer I always used the highest setting.
To be able to use the trimmer while charging
You can connect this directly to the trimmer or to the docking station. If you connect it directly, you can use the device as usual.
This comes with a wheel so that you can adjust the length exactly on the 0.5mm. This works very well. If you have set it up correctly, there is a locking mechanism so that the length does not jump. You can remove the entire attachment without adjusting the length, a big advantage over my previous trimmer.
I do not use this attachment myself. This attachment does not have a wheel and you cannot use the precision trimmer when this piece is on.
There is a small bottle of machine oil to lubricate the trimmer
To clean the trimmer, but this can also be done under water.
The result is of course very important. I noticed on first use that the trimmer is quite quiet compared to my previous trimmer. I was able to set it up very easily. The trimmer fits well in the hand and is pleasant to use. The end result is just good. Only thing I found out is that a lot of beard hairs could be found on the shelf under the mirror. I was never bothered by that.

I have had this trimmer for about three weeks now and it makes me look well cared for again. I was planning to grow my beard longer. This meant that I went to the barber every month to get the beard in shape. Until I got this trimmer as a gift.
The first time I trimmed with it, 6 centimeters of my beard went without any problems. What I especially liked is the good locking of the attachments. I don't feel like I can't press too hard with this trimmer. The precision trimmer, which can be raised with a slider, is also very useful for the lost hairs here and there and the contours of the beard. The annoying thing is that with the attachment that can trim to 2 centimeters, you cannot use the precision trimmer immediately, but you have to remove the attachment first. Fortunately, removing and setting up the two comb attachments is easy.
Furthermore, the Braun BT5090 comes complete with a cleaning brush, a small bottle of lubricating oil, adapter and a bag. Everything just fits in the bag. A slightly larger bag would have been nice, so you don't have to cram everything in it. Finally, it is also handy that you can rinse the trimmer under the tap.

Bought a Braun BT5090 after 10 years of using a Babyliss but this purchase is not at all what I expected. Looks nice, but not happy with the shaving results. Had to apply oil to the blades after every shave to get an 'okay' result. Sent back to origin after 30 days. No more Braun for me unfortunately.
