I thought this clipper was just fine after the first haircut I gave with it, although my husband commented that the guide combs had narrower edges that were less comfortable on his scalp than the ones that had come with our previous clipper. Well, then I went to give a second haircut with it a few days later and got halfway through my son's haircut when the clipper just quit clipping. Oh, the blades were still moving but the sound of the motor was different and the thing just wouldn't cut any hair. The blades just slid right through his hair and didn't make a darned bit of difference, and my son also complained that the guide comb was "scratching" his head. I had adjusted that little turn-screw and cleaned and oiled the blades. It just flat-out quit working! For the price I paid for it, it wasn't worth the hassle of returning, but from now on I stick with Conair, which is the brand I had before that lasted for 3+ years. Guess I got what I paid for with this one, which wasn't much!

I've been using mine for...gosh,it must be at least 5 years now. I cut my 2 boys' hair and my husband's hair - and actually do a good job.
Accessories/parts are generally quite easy to find, as WAHL is a brand carried by most Walmart/KMart/Target -type stores. Barring that, you can write them- their customer service is friendly and efficient.

(I even found a replacement blade to fit it for trimming the dog!)

Seriously, this really is a great product to have on hand- even if you aren't comfortable 'styling' their hair, you can very often get more 'mileage' out of "paid-for" haircuts by just trimming/neatening around the edges of their styles (ie sideburns, back of the neck, near ears).

..And if I can learn to use one of these things, then believe me, ANYone can!

The previous reviews are overall pretty negative, so I am here to offer a different POV. I have had this product for a few months now, used four or five times, and I haven't experienced any problems with it. I have always had problems with cheap electric clippers in the past, but for the price of one barbershop haircut, you can get at least one service out it, so I bought it anyways. So far, I have been as happy with it as a person can get. If it does break down in the future, though, I won't really feel too bad about it. Do note that it is a bit bulky.

This is the same model number as my wonderful old Wahl HomePro, purchased about 8 years ago, but now the quality of the manufacturing is pathetic. All of the accessory parts are flimsy and cheap. The motor on the new one quit halfway through the first haircut. The only thing wrong with the old one was that the blades had chipped, so I put the blades from the new unit on the old device and threw the new one away.

It does the job well, but way too noisy. Would not have bought it if I heard it at work prior to the buying decision.

This clipper works just fine for me.
I've recently taken to keeping my hair,
or what's left of it, really short. I just
snap on the #3 attachment and trim it myself.

I bought this for my husband and son and was not even able to give one hair cut. It pulled the hair, and didn't cut well. My husband kept complaining that it hurt and was pulling. Since I couldn't finish, I had to use our old clippers to get the job done. This was so disappointing, but I guess you get what you pay for.

I do not do negative reviews. I felt compelled to write this one however. This is junk! Dont waste your $$. I gave this as a gift to my son at Christmas who needed a new hair clipper. On his 2nd use, it broke, will not work just buzzes and does not move at all. Very poor quality. I'm 16 days past a return unfortunately :(

A very bad clipper that can hardly cut a follicle of hair. After first trial, i had to abandon it and only use the comb and scissors. Not recommending it as it's not value for money

I've been using these clippers for about 6 months and I am pleased with their performance. They are quiet and cut my hair with ease. With the price of a haircut around $10, these clippers have saved me a lot of money.
