Product Reviews of Conair 20-pc. Pro Haircut Kit
Product Review: Great value!
Summary: 5 Stars
We have used these clippers four times now and have had no problems, we never had to use the turbo mode and the attachments are great. And most importantly the clippers are reasonably quite, just a soft hum.
A great value!

It meets my requirement. It will be better if the knife can be seperated to cleaning. The oil is too little.Product Review: Perfect for the price, compared with Andis 01557 Improved Master Professional Clipper
Summary: 5 Stars
I used to have an almost $100 Andis professional clipper, but after almost a year of use either the motor or some other electric component in it degraded to the point where I can not use it any more. I really didn't feel like sinking another hundred into a new one, so I poked around this site looking for some cheaper alternatives.
My girlfriends brother mentioned he uses "some 20 dollar conair" and it has served him well for some time. So I looked specifically for a conair clipper and found this, just over 20 bucks. With haircuts being 10-15 bucks, if this thing even lasted me 2 haircuts, I'd basically be square, right? So I bought it, and now 2 haircuts later, I am writing my review.
First off, I have VERY thick hair, and it took quite a few passes (granted, with the 7/8ths comb) before I got perfect even-ness. The Andis was a monster and silently and swiftly sliced through my hair. Compared to a "pro" clipper, this is a bit anemic. However, how often to you even need to cut your hair? If you are only planning on cutting your hair once a week or every other week, taking a little extra time isn't so bad of a deal considering you pay a quarter to a fifth of the price. Also, an important note on the "power button" feature: DON'T USE IT, it WILL increase the power, but in my experience that just means it will be more likely to pull your hairs. Just be slow and thorough.
Secondly, for a 20 dollar clipper, this was a much more user-friendly purchase than the andis. This comes with a carrying case, which the Andis did not. This comes with the combs, which the Andis did not. It comes with scissors, a comb, etc. etc. that the Andis did not. That was something that had annoyed me about my previous purchase. I just spent almost a hundred bucks, but you don't even bother to include the combs at least? Or a carrying case for that matter? Sheesh... Oh, but that being said, if you do buy this just throw the smock away first chance you get. It's half of a very thin trash bag with straps attached...
Well, as I said, I've gotten 2 haircuts with this clipper so far and it shows no sign of letting out yet. Just do your best to clean it and just use a dab of the lube it comes with after each cut on the blades to keep them in shape. Every haircut with this from now on is a savings for me, which was the point. As I said in the review title, this kit is perfect for the price.
Product Review: Quality & Value
Summary: 5 Stars
I have the very similar Conair HC275R. It's worked perfectly for 8 years. Then it needed some adjustment. Easy, because the owner manual instructions were clear. It seems very well made. Cutting hair is not that hard. I've saved over $ 2,000 on haircuts.
