There are a few items that are a must haves for Barber's, Stylists, Pet Groomers, kitchen beauticians and the like. This product is one of them. The ease of use, the blades and the design. I love this brand of clippers. This is a must own and a great gift for barber and cosmetology students. My husband even uses the Classic 76 on his own- I then come back to clean him up but anyone can become a professional using this top quality clipper.Product Review: Oster 76 + T-finisher combo
Summary: 4 Stars
Ask any barber what the "old standby" clipper is, and they will almost invariably say it is the Oster 76. Let me caveat this by saying that I am NOT a barber, I do NOT play one on TV, but I DO have a couple decades worth of experience with clipper cuts. Prior to this purchase, I think I have officially run the proverbial gamut with regard to clipper sets. From the $25 el-cheapo sets to $100+ cordless units; from Andis to Wahl, this one outperforms them all by a long shot.
Now, I'm not going to over-inflate this review, as there are some drawbacks to this set. First is the size (diameter). If you are a young person, a small person, or if you just have dainty little hands, this may be a bit of a challenge for you to get a comfortable grip on. The second issue is the weight. For the previously-mentioned folks, finessing this instrument may pose somewhat of a challenge. It isn't overly-heavy, it's more of a cumbersome device.
On the other hand, what this indicates to me is that inside the virtually unbreakable casing, one can expect to find a workhorse power plant. I hear that next year they are planning to produce a twin-turbo diesel model with a rear bagger, and a hedge clipper attachment. OK, so that part is a lie, but it does make a good segue to my last point: The noise. I like it; it says "quality" to me. You may find it overkill, but it is by no means as cacophonous as some others have made it sound.
The best feature of these clippers is the quick-change blades. They literally snap right on - no need to unscrew the old, align and screw on the new! They are also very high quality, and stay relatively cool, even after prolonged use.
The T-finisher is a solid item too. If you don't need it, don't bother though. Buying the combo saves you money, but the 000 blade (included with the 76) will do the same thing as the "T". I have found that for tight trimming, the Wahl Peanut does a great job.
I'm glad I got this combo, and I hope this review helps you decide what to get. I also understand that the Oster Fast Feed Clipper is a pretty nice set. If you don't want to spend over a hundred bucks on a clipper set, you might want to look there as well. Here is the same item with the T-Finisher: Oster Fast Feed Clipper & T-finish Trimmer Combo.
Cheers!

I have used 4 or 5 different brand of hair trimmers and clippers. All were less expensive but I thought they would get the job done. Was I ever wrong. None of them even come close to the Oster 76 clippers and the Oster finisher trimmer. They are both very quite and the cut is very even. Don't waste your time and money on the cheaper ones. In the long run you will spend more money.
