Customers are saying

Customers love the Elite Pro Wet/Dry Hair Trimmer's quality, ease of use, and cutting performance. Many appreciate its powerful motor and the useful attachments and accessories included. While some find it a bit heavy, the positive feedback on its quiet operation and ability to trim hair without pulling outweighs this concern for most users.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

    Description is a flat out lie

    The title of the item says: "Wahl - Elite Pro Wet/Dry Hair Trimmer - Black/Silver" The key part is "wet/dry". However, the instructions in the package clearly say (in multiple places) not to get it wet. This includes during use and *AFTER* use. It says not to get the blades wet, but rather to "brush dry". This is clearly different than what was advertised. In this era of Amazon ruling online purchases, I had hoped to find another vendor for buying electronics. Best Buy is not going to be it... (FTR; I marked all of the below "break down items" as poor simpy because the product is NOT what I wanted and/or needed.)

    Not great for COVID-hair

    COVID-hair forced me into this solution. My wife was convinced a YouTube video would make her a professional. It did not, and this clippers didn’t help. It was difficult to adjust and is extremely loud. My advice, leave hair cutting to the professionals.

    So far its ok. The first cut with them was rough, got snaged up every few seconds if you moved at a normal speed. We'll see about the second cut soon. And yes I did oil them about a week before the first cut.

    Very noisy and high vibrations

    It is really loud and the vibrations are very high. After 30-40 seconds my hand start hurting from the vibrations. I just turned it on and after 30 seconds turned it off and returned it. Did not get a chance to actually cut hair with it so I would not be able to say if it cuts properly or other usage details.

    I have used the Wahl brand trimmer for many years but lately I have had bad luck with them. Using it for the first time it starts to act up toward the end of the hair cut. Everytime I turned it sideways it would stop working. Maybe it was a defect. I returned it next day.

    Quite disappointed about this purchase. The blades needed alignment right out of the box and still getting very poor results after following the manufacturer's directions. Wasted my money on it.

    Such horrible quality. You have to constantly adjust blades, oil them and use screwdriver to adjust speed of the motor to make it work.
