 Gotta agree with the negative reviews hereJun 21, 2008
By Digital
I purchased 1 remmington about 3 years ago that lasted me a long time.
so when that one broke, it was obvious i was buying another remington.
Well just like the two other bad reviews
I had the SAME Problem, the little tabs that hold the combs in
break after 2-3 uses. I was so disappointed after the first time the little tab broke, but decided what the heck, i'll buy another. thinking I'll be really careful. 3-4 uses later SAME THING. I cant believe i own 2 brand new remington hair trimmers. WHICH ARE NOW USELESS TO ME. I'm gonna switch to another brand for now until Remington gets their act together. Avoid this product for now. Very Disappointing

Very disappointing.Jan 08, 2008
By S. Smith

I purchased this set to keep my hair cut, as well as my nephews, and brother. The tabs on the smaller combs broke off on the second hair cut and now this is useless as they do not sell replacement guides for this set.
I have never been disappointed with Remington before this but, unfortunately this has colored my opinion.

 Will wear out on you fastFeb 18, 2008
By Joseph P. Long
I bought this a while ago to cut my own hair. Now that I'm older, there's much less hair to deal with and I can't really justify paying for haircuts when they all look bad regardless of how much I pay. So, I got the bright idea of getting this item on sale and doing my own hair. It worked great the first couple of times, but even though I oiled the blades, they went dull fast By the third haircut, it felt like it was yanking all my hair out instead of cutting it. Ouch! Plus, I looked totally retarded with clumps of hair sticking out amidst short cut hair. It took way to long to make it look right again.

 Excellent productNov 15, 2007
By Javier
Very easy to use. I have never used or own one before, but since I like my hair very short I though it could be a good investment. Since I bought it, more than 1 year ago, it has been flawless. Nice presentation, hard black plastic case, several guides combs, scissors, brush to clean it, etc. You do not need to lubricate the blades, it has no maintenance at all. Just plug it and is ready for the job. Clean cuts and after you have used it twice it has been paid for itself.

 Great clipper, awful accessoriesJan 21, 2010
By Phillip Campbell
The clipper itself is excellent. Smooth, quiet and efficient. The combs - the parts that come with the clipper in general - are absolute trash. Rather than making them of a relatively soft (as in flexible) plastic, they made them with a brittle, hard plastic. Every hair guide comb that clips onto the trimmer has very small tabs which break if you look at them cross-eyed. I now have a trimmer that's only good for doing hair Vin Diesel style. I do not look good that way. Neither does my wife.
The replacements are $5.99 plus shipping and handling. That total, with tax, is $14.36. The unit itself costs $14.95. Both are from the Remington website.
