This review is from: Oster 230 Volt Ac T-finisher Trimmer Item No 59-84 * Equipped With European Electrical Plug
I purchased these clippers expecting to get a good pair, Im overseas and need something for the facial hair and for trimming. WELLL THIS IS NOT THE ONE!!!!! I tried to use it twice, once because it was the first time I had the chance since I got here. And the second time because i thought maybe it was the user and not the equipment so i tried at a different location. But these trimmers couldnt cut any hair even if it had NAIR to help it. The blade is horrible, not sharp at all. the power was weak but maybe with a sharper blade may have helped a little bit. SO trust me if you are overseas and need a pair of trimmers try something else because TRUST ME THIS IS NOT THE ONE YOU WANT!!!! I'M not trying to promote other clippers or anything Im just trying to keep buyers from making the same mistake I did. Maybe they work off of 230 VOLTS Power like the title says and 220 is not enough but for 220, I REPEAT DO NOT WASTE TIME OR MONEY BUYING THESE....GARBAGE

This item is terrible. I ordered this because I'm overseas thinking it would work better for me but low and behold its actully 10x's worst than the 110v that I also have. Very dull blade and the power is VERY LOW.

I literally just finished using these to shave my head, and have been using them for about 5 days so far. Extremely underpowered, difficult to adjust.
I also had these a long time ago in US voltage, looking for an alternative to my Andis clippers. My andis clippers worked so well, that I forgot there were other alternatives out there. So I started looking to see if other brands would compare. Andis is the best hands down, and now I am remembering why I threw the Osters out the previous time I had them.
First, the teeth in andis clippers seem to be smaller than those in other clippers, which allows for a closer cut, without blade over lap (if you know what I mean - when you adjust the moving blade so close against the guard that it knicks your skin and gives you that burning sensation like your skin is on fire for the rest of the day - all in pursuit of that closest of close haircut). I now have razor bumps littered on the back of my neck, and even face,...Read more
