Product Description

Amazon.com

Trips to the hair stylist can really add up. This 14-piece home haircutting kit from Wahl gives the whole family professional-looking haircuts for a fraction of the cost. The powerful, rechargeable clippers are useful for giving crew cuts and maintaining shorter haircuts. The clippers have a high-speed rotary motor for a smoother cut; however, for the extent of its power, the motor is fairly quiet and lightweight. The clipper blades are permanently aligned so you never need to adjust them, and are detachable for thorough cleaning. The clippers come with two adjustable guide combs that offer a total of 14 different hair lengths ranging from 1/8 to 1-3/4 inches. A sliding thumb-operated switch on the clippers lets you easily adjust the combs to the proper height. The clippers operate either with their cord or cordless for up to 40 minutes before needing recharging. Besides the charger, other accessories in the kit include a barber comb, a small flattop comb, barber scissors for trimming bangs or stray hairs, three hair clips, a cape, and extra oil for the electric clippers. The entire kit fits in a hard plastic storage box. Wahl covers the clippers in this haircutting set under a two-year limited warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde

2.0 out of 5 stars Just Plain Disappointed!!!, February 11, 2005

When I first came across this item I was happy to find a hair cutting kit with a quality name and at a affordable price but that's where my excitement stopped.. Upon receiving and trying the kit I was very disappointed. First the combs I received were so thin and bendable that you could barely get them thru the hair so I had to use my older yet stronger combs.. Next the clipper comes with a sliding thumb-operated switch that allows you adjust the combs to the proper cutting height however in my case it just moved on its own while cutting hair. Lastly the cut hair became clogged at the bottom of the clipper comb and that made it difficult to cut. Everybody has to make their own choice when buying these kits so maybe someone else will have a better experience then I had, but I could not recommend this one. So I sent it back..

This review is from: Wahl 9627 HomePro 14 Piece Home Haircutting Kit with Durable Storage Case (Health and Beauty)

I bought the clipper because it had two features most important to me: (1) cordless operation; (2) adjustable-length comb attachments to eliminate the need to constantly change comb attachments. I used the clipper right out of the box without charging the battery (I used it with the cord attached). I found the motor was extremely weak, stalled every few seconds (requring me to turn the clipper off/on repeatedly), and the clipper pulled my kid's hair out painfully. Perhaps I should have charged up the clipper's battery fully before using it, but according to its manual, it is supposed to work as a corded clipper with the cord attached when the battery is depleted.

The clipper comes with two adjustable-length comb attachments - one for short hair lengths and one for long lengths. The short comb attachment seems OK, while the long comb attachment is poorly designed - hair gets trapped easily and builds up in the comb, I had to constantly shake or blow on the comb to get the hair out. Overall, I'm very disappointed with this Wahl clipper.

This review is from: Wahl 9627 HomePro 14 Piece Home Haircutting Kit with Durable Storage Case (Health and Beauty)

I purchased this item because of the trustworthy name and cordless feature. The positive reviews here are from first impressions. However, I have had this clipper close to a year but with probably less then 5 hours use. When I first received it, it felt very light and cheaply made. I gave it the benifit of the doubt and hoped for the best. Last time it worked, the motor slowed down to almost a halt. I keep it cleaned and oiled. The motor is just too cheap. Im not sure what the company Wahl was thinking when they made this product. They should really consider discontinueing this model because it is hurting their image. I would not even attempt to use my warranty because it's not defected parts. It's a total LEMON. It would be nice if they will let me exchange it for a different model or full refund. I would even pay the difference.
I do not recommend this product.
