Customer Reviews of Remington HKVAC-2000 Precision Vacuum Haircut Kit

Customer Review: Greatest clippers ever
Summary: 5 Stars

Ever since a happy accident several years ago, I've been buzzing my hair. My clippers had just about had it and so I began searching for a nice, but inexpensive set of clippers to replace them. I wanted one that would vacuum the clippings as the hair was cut. Turned out these are few and far between. Then I discovered the HKVAC-2000 on Amazon. The reviews on the item seemed to indicate an overall good product with a handful giving average to just below ratings. Based on the frequency of these I assumed they were isolated incidents.

After receiving the clippers and trying them, I have to say it was the single best investment I've ever made for any personal product of its type. This thing is amazing! I've never had an easier or cleaner time cutting my son's hair! When it came time to do the bi-weekly buzz on my own crop, it went far better than expected based on that handful of disappointed customers' reviews. There was no "3 foot" mess on the floor to clean up, the product did not grab my hair or cut me anywhere at any time.

Based on my experience with the clippers so far (4 cuts for myself, 1 for my son), I have to now assume those who've had some trouble are attempting to cut too fast. The faster you try to cut hair with these the more likely you'll get a snag (moving faster than the clippers can keep up) and the more likely the vacuum won't be able to suck up the hair (it will go flying past the vacuum opening instead of being sucked in).

Another great thing about these, NO OILING the blade!!

Clean up is so easy. Simply detach the catch chamber and dump. Use the accompanying brush to clean off the blades. The blade assembly is amazingly easy to clean as well. Instead of having to unscrew anything or risk breaking small parts, it pops off with ease, but not so that it will during a cut. Just use the brush again on the inner workings and replace. Voila.

I've had no real trouble with it so far. The only drawback I could perhaps mention is when doing a self cut and coming up the back of the head, you have to make sure you keep the blade assembly flat against the head (assuming your doing an attachment-less buzz like myself) or you may hit a "snag" of sorts at the curvature of the back of your head. I can't see that happening if someone else is doing the cut for you since they'd be able to see what they're doing.

Other than that minor difficulty, I can't think of anything else that would be a potential problem. Just remember those two things,

1. When giving yourself a buzz, remember to go slow on the back of the head as you come up where the head curves.

2. Go slow to ensure minimal clean up and a perfect cut with no snatching.

I can't recommend these highly enough. If you're looking for a great set of electric clippers and you don't like the clean up after a haircut with scissors or the usual clippers, you've found the perfect set. Buy now! You WON'T regret it!
