Nice find OP, and hot price.
Although having bought this late December in a lightning deal (very similar price) I can tell you this isn't great. Used it daily for a month and it is acceptable at best. I almost wish I didn't bother. I don't have a particularly bushy beard but this does a very mediocre job even when plugged in. My old Phlilps that's now falling to bits still does a better job. The best feature of this is that since it's Braun power lead is the same as my shaver so I don't have to take two leads when I travel. This is and the price are the only reasons I didn't send it back. Already looking for a quality replacement for every day use but that means spending money again.
Anyway, worth having in mind the not so good reviews. Check out Amazon for this as I see that Argos is all positive.

Thanks for the above tips. Anyone know of a better one for around £25?

Babyliss itrim Stubble about £20. Had no complaints with mine over the 2 years I've had it. Performance has dropped a bit on it lately though so I'm gona buy another itrim. If it lasts as long as the first one its well worth the money, a fraction of the cost of 2 years worth of Fusion blades!

agree, don't bother. got from tesco for 15 a few months ago. Patchy shave, you have to go over several times to get it even. Not a fan of the attached comb either. I think the best ones are the ones used in barber shops (wahl).

Yeah, I can only mirror what's already been said on this. the trimmer itself is actually quite good imo, but the guide is dreadful. Half of the teeth fell off mine within 6 months of buying, which rendered it pretty pointless. I ended up getting an Istubble+ from argos for about 35 quid and it seems like a quality product tbh.

I got it for £32 a while back and whilst the guards are a but flimsy the actual trimmer is very solid
