About Remington HC5855 Virtually Indestructible Haircut Kit & Beard Trimmer
Overall Feedback:
92% positive
78% appreciated the adjustable length settings, but 22% found them limited
I miss the adjusting lever, indicating that the hair-cutting-kit's adjustability is not up to the mark.
I noticed that the razor knife does not shave as slim as other shaving machines and there is no adjustment for this.
The razor knife does not shave as slim as other machines.
I experienced a few pulled hairs near my navel while using the hair-cutting kit. It might have happened because I was sweeping the unit too quickly through the area.
The clipper lacks a lever for half steps, which is super helpful for fades, high and tights, etc.
79% liked the long lasting battery life, but 21% experienced battery life issues
I like that this hair-cutting kit is corded with no battery. I had problems with my previous clippers having a rechargeable battery soldered inside which died three years ago and I spent a few hours replacing them, and those newer batteries just died. I recommend this new one as it is way better.
Compared to battery-operated clippers, it is fabulous.
My hair-cutting kit has been working without issues for 6 years.
I have tried several cordless models over the years and they do not hold up. The batteries die in less than 2 years.
87% praised the sharp and durable blades
I recommend the T-Blade for shaving as it does not snag or cut, unlike the balding blade which requires caution to avoid cuts.
The blades are of superb quality and did not cause any discomfort or irritation while using them.
The blades are a separate unit that can be easily removed and installed. They can be cleaned and oiled every time without worrying about the last day of use. I love it.
88% found it easy to clean and maintain
The blade head comes off easily for cleaning and the handset side is all sealed, so no hair gets jammed in screws or seams.
Cleaning the hair-cutting kit is easy and the oil that comes with it will last for a long time.
I find the trimmer easy to clean and follow the instructions for oiling.
I find the blade easy to remove and clean with its easy push release.
83% found it easy to use and maneuver
The Remington hc5855 shaver is well-made and easy to use.
Cleaning the kit is easy and the oil that comes with it will last for a while.
The hair cutting kit is easy to clean and it is also quiet and sharp.
I found the instructions easy to follow and had a good hair cut after reading them.
94% appreciated the quiet operation, but 6% found it too noisy
I find the noise level of the hair-cutting kit very important and it is quiet.
The clippers are quiet and powerful, and do not sound like they are getting overworked.
Both trimmers cut equally well and produce the same amount of noise.
