 Owned for 2 years July 22, 2008

I bought this just over 2 years ago and although I found the product adequate for my needs I wouldn't particularly recommend it. My experience is as follows.
After 1 week the nose hair clipper stopped working, however I didn't really want it in the first place so did nothing about it.
After 1 month the little circular bit of plastic at the bottom of the adjustment handle cracked and fell off meaning it could no longer be adjusted. However, again I did nothing about this as it still served it's purpose (I always used it on the shortest length and that is where it got stuck).
Last week it finally stopped working altogether when the blades stopped cutting and started trying to pull my hair out instead.
To be fair I got reasonable use out of it and I never had any problems with battery life, even after 2 years (mind you I did make sure I fully charged it before I first used it and then fully discharged it before recharging), that said it really isn't as good quality as it looks as can be seen by the problems I had.
 Good whilst it lasted.. July 19, 2008

I purchased the HC363c less then 12 months ago and it worked fine until one of the trimming guides broke. I used the 18mm guide no more that 10 times but the tiny plastic lug that holds it to the clippers broke and I can't find a replacement. You can by 3,6,9 and 12mm in a pack of 4 but that's it. So now I have to throw the whole thing away as I'm sure the warranty will just say it was my fault. This is a very poorly designed fastening and certainly wouldn't stand frequent use. I would not purchase another..

How much does a hair cut for a man cost these days? Now I'm not talking about one of those fancy hundred pound, have a coffee while you wait, must be seen on Big Brother hair jobs. I mean a simple, once a month shave and trim at the local barbers. 5 pounds? 10 if you're really pushing the boat out? Well, here is the solution. With the HC363C you can save bucket loads, and save making idle chit chat about holidays and work by cutting your own hair in the privacy of your own home. With the curtains drawn if you wish.
I like to keep my hair at a pretty uniform length, almost so that it looks like at never gets any longer or shorter. As i have quite bushy hair, this prevents the hassle of trying to control it when it gets long. Therefore I cut my hair once a fortnight. That's at least 24 haircuts a year, for a price of 17 pounds- saving at least 40 quid if you usually get it cut once a month. I cut my own hair, you can clean it and then let your brother use it, let your dad have a go, sort the kids with it, and even scare your wife/sister/mum. The only problem is trying to stop yourself chase the local kids around the streets with it.
Seriously though, aside from saving a lot of money, this provides a good, clean cut, although if you're doing it yoursel if takes a few practice goes to get good, to get a technique which suits you. The blades are strong and sharp, cutting out the need to keep going over the same patch of hair. For a normal sized headed person like me, a cut usually takes less than 10 minutes. As well as this, the blades are ominously 'lubed for life' which means that you don't have to fork out for special gels or liquids to keep the blades moving. Indeed, that is one of the best features of this package- that it contains all the peripherals you will ever need inside a handy, classy case. Once you buy this, you won't need anything else, and as Remington are reliable you can sure these won't break down anytime soon. You get scissors which aren't too sharp, and can be fiddly tring to get that annoying tuft behind your ear, and a neat little brush to clean the hairs from the blades and from around your neck. Naturally there are different sizes of heads to facilitate any length of cut, from 'I want to be a hippy', to 'Skinhead's Paradise'.
This set can also be used cordlessly, which is a definite plus as it stops the wire flapping about your face and takes away the temptation to bite it mid-cut. I have not had any problems with pulling, as sometimes clippers can feel like your hair is being pulled out one by one. Not with these, though sometimes a rare 'bad' pair may sneak onto the shelves.
All in all, this is one of the best sets on the market for this price. It cuts well, and in whichever style you want it to (considering your ability as a cutter) . It is cheap, reliable, looks stylish, comes in a great box which stores all the attachments, anc can be stored easily itself. It comes with everything you need for a full hairdressing experience apart from a 15 year old sweeping hairs in the background and chewing bubblegum. Perfect.

After owning a Babyliss set for at least 5 yrs, the blades were going blunt, could not get replacements so searched on Amazon and bought these.
Have to say been excellent, might have to cut a little slower but very good. They are light and easy to use.Charge up ok and ok to use when plugged into charger. Happy shopper.
Excellent value and quality May 30, 2008

I spent some time around Amazon searching for some decent clippers and decided to go for this one because of the positive reviews.
Everything stores nicely into the box and all the equipment you need is there. The combs attach firmly onto the clipper so there is no paranoia that they might fall off. The cut was professional and there seemed to be more than enough battery for the duration of a full cut. The blades cut very well in the context that previous machines I used hair would jam the machine.
Although much louder than other clippers I have no regrets and can only recommend this model to anyone.
