Customer Review: $14.99 at TJ Maxx, and believe me, you get what you pay for.
Summary: 1 Stars

Just like the title says, I bought this clipper for $[...] and had problems almost immediately. For one, the construction of the unit allows for no buffering to deal with the vibration, so the two screws that hold the front plate on are constantly coming loose, which makes you stop to re-tighten them multiple times (we're talking like 10+ times here, people), which makes what should be a 5 minute session turn into a 30 minute session. Also, you must re-tighten them EXACTLY, otherwise, if they're TOO tight, it'll jam the blades. If it's too loose, it turns the blades into a scary, clacking chasm of death to which you would not be wise to expose your skin to. I have a scar on my body to prove it.

If you're patient enough to deal with that, then there's the attachments, which get stuck in the damned blades, also jamming them, so they're fairly useless. In theory, you're given a number of different sizes to perform a number of different personal grooming tasks with, but rest assured, you won't have to be bothered with such intricate problems and decisions, because none of them will ever work, anyway.

Cleaning and oiling the thing is pretty easy and straightforward, and since you'll be spending plenty of time taking it apart and putting it back together just to get it to work in the first place, you'll have a pretty good working knowledge of its anatomy.

I wish I could give it more than one star, but I don't see how I possibly can. Does it do what it's designed to do? Well, maybe, but not without a ridiculous amount of extraneous effort and tooling on your part. Is it SAFE to use? HIGHLY DEBATABLE. Is it worth its asking price (or any price)? In my opinion, no. Not at all.

It seems that no matter how many electric razors/trimmers I try, I always seem to go back to Braun. This electric, the Braun 3612 Series, I have have for YEARS (at least 8), and it still works great, even without replacement blades. I highly recommend checking it out and Braun's other products. You may want to pass on Wahl.
