Best handheld electric trimmer? (That’s not a total RIPOFF)

Damn I was hoping it could be used on dry flowers. I no longer trim wet, my precious flowers are for personal consumption and i fall firmly in the camp of dry trim only.
same. I also came to the conclusion that since it is all for personal use, and its pretty quality bud anyways, i'm okay with a little extra sugar leaf, and just continue to hand trim. I found staggering my harvests to be really benificial to only have to trim a plant or two at a time, I can be done in a few hours.

The trimr matic is nice. I have that (or another brand, not sure). Really easy to do a pound of hard nugs in a couple hours. The fluffy stuff takes more time. The bottom buds that resemble air arent worth the time with the trimmer. Goes straight to the slow cooker.

But yea, nice manicured buds. Careful with trimming deep in a bud, you can cut a piece of the bud off

Well I ordered my elite scissors on a Monday and had them by the following Friday. I’m very impressed with this venture so far. I’m gonna have to wait a few weeks to try them out but I’ll keep you guys updated on how well they work. They seem to be pretty heavy duty and come with scissors, power cord, extra set of blades and paperwork/stickers.. I’m very excited to try these cause once again I HATE TRIMMING

Huh, I think i'm the only one here who doesn't mind trimming. Put on some chill music, smoke the whole time obviously, its kind of therapeutic. I wouldn't want to trim anybody elses though, it isn't that fun haha
Curious just how well these work. I don't mind trimming, but i do hate cleaning the blades every 5 seconds

Bringing up this thread because I'm wondering what the best options are now. I wanted to give the Elite scissors mentioned in this thread a try but it looks like they've been discontinued :(

Am i the last of the scissor trimmers, genetics. Find a nice not so leafy strain and stick with it. Took awhile to find right cultivar but was worth it, l pick most leaves off b4 harveting most times, better airflow! And yellow leaves dont do their job anymore, or so l believe. NEED TO BE GREEN TO WORK? Yes or No?

I have a set of these, they are ok for sugar leaves but didn't have enough bite to get through stem or even chop off some of the big fan leaves. Not sure if there is a setting to turn the strength up a bit. Havnt used them in a while.

I also have an electric bowl trimmer and not really a fan.
