Great clippers for the price

You can't really beat this package. You get good clippers and a great liner. The liners are basically the andis t-outliners but you have to adjust them. I highly recommend this package.
Doesn't make the cut

Okay, it does make the cut, but the unit I received also pulls at the hair. I've cut my husband and sons' hair for years and this is the first time the experience has been unpleasant for them. I found the final result to be uneven, though I was able to remedy that with scissors. Still, what's the point if you can't get a clean line? Also, I would like a guard with a taper for around the ears. With two rounds of cuts on 3 guys, we didn't lose money on this, but I'm back to searching for a better clipper.
Pretty good

Not bad but measures up to most clippers in this price range. Not really better or worse.
Pros: Smooth cutting action, (but it's a new blade)
Cons: Packaging could be better; its just a case where you throw the clippers and all attachments. Very unorganized (but most are like this)
No scissors/comb for touch up.
Trimmer is no real bonus, Clippers do a better job for close cut. Small trimmer actually hurts a little.
BOTTOM LINE: Don't spend the $40 on this, go with the Andis $25-$29 one. You don't need the trimmer, plus the clipper only one comes with scissors and comb. Save the $10.
Seems great, but what do I know?

This is my second clipper purchase. The first was a cordless beard trimmer years ago. These work infinitely better than my beard trimmer to give myself haircuts, but they should, shouldn't they? No pulled hairs, clean, sharp cuts, plenty of hair-depth attachments, and two units for the price of one! The only questionable thing about this duo is I think the trimmer unit doesn't sound as high-pitched (the blades are moving slower?) as the ones I've heard professional barbers use. Don't know what that really means, but IMO it does a great job for close-to-the-skin trimming, so who cares?
It's OK

I bought this over a year ago, and now feel prepared to write a proper review. Both clippers are a little on the loud side, which is not that big of a deal. The larger clipper is fairly durable, but you will need multiple passes to get an even cut. I cut my own hair and find, more often than not, that you have to go over the sames spots. I have medium (not coarse, not fine) hair and I don't use it anymore. If you are looking for a longer cut, and are cutting someone else's hair, it will work well. I do like the adjustable blade and varying lengths of attachments.
I like the smaller trimmer much better. I also like the attachments that come with the smaller clipper, however, this one is much louder than the first. A drawback with the trimmer follows what has been mentioned before, the head is a bit on the large size, and that makes it hard to trim around the ear. The blades are not adjustable, but the attachments work very well with this one.
If you are cutting someone else's hair, I would recommend this as it is a good price for two decent clippers, however, if you cut your own hair, very short, I would not buy this.
