There are so many clippers on the market that choosing one is difficult. I picked this Philips machine for a number of reasons: it was comparatively cheap (I paid £35), it was cordless, it could be charged in an hour, it looked comfortable to hold, its blades didn't need oiling and it was supposedly designed in such a way that it wouldn't jam. I attempted my first ever DIY haircut this morning, expecting that it would be a bit of an ordeal: I had six months of thatch to get rid of, and I'm probably the clumsiest person on the planet. In the event, the process was entirely painless and glitch-free. Leaning over a sheet of newspaper on my kitchen table,

Nothing to dislike about this. It has these attachments that adjust over a wide range so you rarely have to change them over! Battery seems to last ages. Comfy to hold. Charged quickly. Worth the money. Don't get one with multiple grade attachments this works much better (I had one like that before!)Update after a few weeks. Gone from 5 to 4 stars - still awesome (I'd still highly recommend - just be more careful than me!). The plastic in the attachments is very brittle and I worry I will snap them sometime. Strange when the trimmers themselves are so well made. Be careful when storing and changing over. Also unfortunately I put the shortest attachment, the beard trimmer, on slightly offset (no idea how!)

This review is for the 5100/13 model.I initially bought a set of Wahl clippers. They were extremely noisy and didn't cut properly, a bit like trying to cut paper with a set of kids plastic scissors, very poor and were returned.So, I bought these. What a difference, they are virtually silent in use, and cut the hair properly as you would hope for!They come with a range of clipper comb heads for differnt hair lengths (down to a No1) and the adjustable blades cut down to 0.4mm which is really good as most of the competition only cut to 0.8mm.The Philips comb attachments seem to be a standard size, as the Wahl comb attachments also fit the Philips cutter head.

This seems much better than some of the others we have used including the older version that it replaces. It is a much improved version which is easy to set up and use. You get two heads and can use the middle wheel to set the required length. Can't get any simpler really. It didn't struggle once with the cutting and didn't irritate my partners scalp a boon for him. The cutting head feels very fluid when it is on and the vibration is not over bearing so it is very easy to control. Seems very good value in the £50 mark (July 2019) and not something that's going to fall apart quickly in use.

With the shortage of hair clippers due to the lockdown, I was extremely fortunate to find this on an Amazon Warehouse deal - the packaging was damaged but product was still sealed.It is very easy to use - the short comb for 3-15mm, long comb for 16-28mm. Haven't used the beard trimmer comb. The dial on the clipper can be set in increments of 1mm. Took about an hour to full charge, have used it for two haircuts so far. Clipped hair does flow away nicely while using.Easy to clean as well. The package includes a pouch to store the trimmer, charger and accessories.

As you would expect, you get a range of comb lengths on this clipper: 3mm (1/8”), 6mm (1/4”), 9mm (3/8”), 12mm (1/2”), 16mm (5/8”), 19mm (3/4”), 25mm (1”). You don’t have to guess, as these are all written on them. They all fit on easily and there is a lever for making minor adjustments. The motor is very quiet but it's steady and doesn't snag. You get a nice long lead with this – 2.8m – and the usual supplementary bits and pieces: brush, comb, scissors and lubricant. The scissors are stainless steel and actually quite good.

I liked these clippers. They come with just three attachments, but you can vary the cutting length with a dial on the device itself. I much prefer this than having a huge number of plastic attachments as I have received with other devices. We have used it so far to cut my hair and remove all the body hair on my back. It is very solid to hold, requires no wire (it's chargeable) and is painless to apply to either the face or body. I like the case it comes in, which keeps everything together as we only need it every few weeks.

Brought as a present and he absolutely loves it. Very easy to use and the custom length setting is great, especially as it reduces the amount of guards needed. Was surprised to see that it's waterproof, although he hasn't tested that yet, I'd be cautious of completely submerging the unit, but it looks convient for rinsing the cutting blade. Battery life seems pretty good too. It arrived with a full charge and had only been charged once at home despite being used 5-6 times in the past few weeks. Good value for money!

These are much quieter than previous models and they’re also slightly smaller in the hand. With a lengthy battery life of at least half a dozen full head haircuts these have got a great battery life. Now also washable under the tap meaning you’re not going to run the risk of damaging the internals getting water near the internals! Overall a great step forward but the only very small negative is the quality of the plastic attachments, would like to see these made of stronger plastics. Overall very good.

I gave this to a friend of mine who is a professional barber to see how it held up under serious use. He said they were pretty easy to use, very lightweight and they glide through hair smoothly. For home use he said they would be very useful and especially liked the design of the adjustable blades. However, for professional use he didn't think they would have they staying power he would require but if you are planning to use them to keep hair trimmed at home they will do the job nicely.

Exhibits the quality expected of this established manufacturer, weighty and robust feel with all of the accessories one would expect, could easily be used professionally though that is not its intended use. Important to note that this is not a rechargeable device as it needs a mains connection so that prohibits its use in most bathrooms these days. Overall a sturdy competent machine that should last for many years with a 2 year worldwide guarantee just in case.

Having a short hairstyle, I wanted something to keep it smart between professional cuts. This is easy to hold and move around my ears, light yet a quality feel.. Battery life is excellent and it is quick to charge. Also great for all over body grooming for gents of a hairy disposition. Very accurate settings from near skin to longer lengths in miniscule and accurate settings that won't budge accidentally once set. Recommended by me wholeheartedly

First impressions are of a very smart, well crafted shaver.It comes with a number of shave heads, a charger and a nice bag to carry it in.Quick charge for an hour and was ready to go.By selecting the attachment and using the dual you can customise it very well to the right length of hair you require.In use it flows well. It is quick and indeed directs the cut hair away.This is a great hair clipper and shaver.

Despite having to wait around 6 weeks for delivery (demand was no doubt high during lock-down) I'm very happy with these clippers. They are only plug-in so no comment on battery life. They are quiet and easy to hold, they can be used to cut your own hair if needed but easier if you have someone else to do it for you!Looks like I will not be returning to the barbers any time soon. Great purchase.

Lots of nice features on these clippers.They look good and are easy to hold. They aren't too heavy and they are easy to manoeuvre. They come with a handy case for storage - as all this sort of item should but very often don't. They are cordless but if worst comes to worse you can use them plugged in thus minimising the chances of failure half way through a cut.We found them excellent.
