Shower shavers

One of my concerns about growing my hair out is whether I can keep it trimmed myself without getting hair all over the place. It just occurred to me today that I've heard of electric razors that can be used in the shower, and sure enough some googling got me to this example on offer at Amazon.com. I'm wondering if anybody has experience with such a device (whether for shaving or for trimming) and how that worked out and whether any models can be recommended. It seems as though doing the hair trimming in the shower would solve the problem of hair getting all over the place, but maybe it clogs the drain frequently or causes other problems.

I also used a Coolskin for several years (branded as Philips rather than Norelco in the UK). Doesn't shave quite as close as a dry electric razor, and changing the gel cartridges is a nuisance. It didn't have a trimmer at all.

Yes, I'll have to see if they have a hair clipper model too.
