Pros & Cons
Pros
The lithium version adds a bib to the package. Being cordless is a big bonus for being able to trim my beard an cut my hair anywhere. The adjustment lever is extremely useful.
Cons
Followed instructions and oiled etc, still rubbish.
On/off button is haphazard & needs a redesign. Charging pin inside unit snapped off easily when charger was inserted. The blades pull hair - which renders it useless.
The clipper itself feels very cheap and plastiky. Also it is slightly wider than the bottom part of the clipper causing sharp edges and blocking the taper lever. Plastic comb pieces are made from cheap plastic.
Highlights
Quality
Some of the plastic cutter attachments had bent tines, but other than that, i'm well pleased with this product.
Worth spending a little extra for the quality.
But the build quality of the unit is poor.
Ha a previous model of the same item without the fade lever that worked very well and decided to continue with the same trusted brand.
Price
All i could ask for and worth the extra cost.
Also the price was exactly the same wherever i looked but benefited from amazon prime before 10pm delivery.
Competitiveness
I had a previous whal clipper which took about 20 minutes.
You will find many cheaper on amazon but i decided to trust a 'brand' of the sector.

The guards don’t lift enough hair upto the blades so your constantly going over and over the same spot

The gaps in between each blade of the guards are far too wide apart

Only the addins look like they were made in a romanian garage but they work nice for now
