The Remington hair clipper with vacuum is a great product. It works very well and there is no mess. What a blessing to a novice "barber." The price was right and the order arrived in good time. Thanks for the opportunity to sing praises.Product Review: Great Product !!!!

This little trimmer/cutter is Fantastic !!! All the others I have tried did not have the vacuum to lift as well as cut hair, the result was uneven at best w/o the lift factor. Great product !!! Just watch out for the cutter as it can pop out with little effort, the only complaint I could say I have about this neat product.Product Review: Great Product!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been married for 8 years with 5-year-old son. During my married life, I've been cutting trimming my husband's hair about every 3 weeks. Although I'm not a professional, my husband loves getting haircut from me and my son also picked it up from his dad. I have gone through at least 5 or 6 clippers during last 8 years, and I would say with all my heart, that this is the best clipper for the price range.
Of course I have no experience with 300 bucks professional equipment. But the kinds that you would use at home, the ones under 50 bucks, I would say, this is absolutely the best. I have been happily using the current one I purchased over a year ago although I've noticed weakening of the sucktion recently. Since the delivery took quiet awhile last time, I wanted place my order for a replacement before I would face some real problem. (between my husband and my son, I do haircut about every week.)
The best part, of course, is the vacuum function. At first by its fragile look and light weight, I couldn't really trust how it would suck in the hair. The result was amazing, though. The person below complained about this machine not picking up fine hair. I guess my husband and son have a little thicker hair, anyway, I thought it worked wonderfully. From many years of hair cutting, I'm equiped with floor mat, cape and big brush. Since I started using this one, I didn't have to use any of them. I used to be a little bit reluctant to give my son a haircut with all the mess it would creat, but now I can even give him quick trim while he is standing by the sink, without creating any mess!
Another amazing part is the titanium coating. For somebody like me who accepted the fact of haircutting... that when you finally clean up the floor, you are not done, you still have to clean your clippers thoroughly with little tiny brushes and oil them!... it was also amazing that this machine would not require oil. It just keeps going and the blades have survived the longest time among all the clippers I've used.
I had to replace my clippers since the blades start getting dull after about one year of use. (maybe my husband does have thick hair!) And replacing blades is as expensive as getting a new one. I haven't had any problem with blades so far. The only reason I'm thinking to get a replacement is spilling of bits of hair. Yes, I'm getting spoiled.
My only complaint is though, with vacuum and everything, it is the loudest clippers I've ever used. It is so noisy that when I'm trimming around the years, I have to block their hair with one hand to protect their ear drums. :) Still the convenience is worth ignoring the noise.
Product Review: Great alternative to Flow-Bee
Summary: 5 Stars
I had been so use to using the family's Flow-Bee that after I moved to a different state I really didn't like the idea of paying for haircuts. Don't get me wrong, the conversations are great, but I really didn't like the idea of paying nearly $70/year for haircuts. My hair grows extremely quickly. After finding out that Flow-Bees cost $60-100 I decided to look other places. I found this and bought it right away because of the cost.
My hair is very thick, so the vacuum has no problem holding onto it. There is a possibility that thinner hair could pass through easily. I used it last night for the first time following the instructions. Sadly, after 5 minutes of use, and irreversible trimming, I realized it might be a good idea having someone else do it for you. :) Even though, the kit comes with clips to hold back hair, a comb, and scissors, it would take a while to get skilled at doing your own hair. Sooooo... I opted for a nice short summer cut. The clippers handled my thick hair nicely even if I moved a bit to quickly. You will need a drop clothe around you if you don't do it in front of a sink.
Overall I would recommend this product with only two flaws; storage bag could be bigger, and the hair catch could also be bigger. I emptied that sucker six to seven times. It is a LOT better than hearing a loud vacuum in your ear the whole time though.
Product Review: Great deal and good product.
