Title: Quality product
Review: This will go through your hair like a hot knife through butter. It's very quiet, yet powerful. Blades are sharp, but not so close/sharp that you need worry about cutting yourself. It comes with a few attachments if you prefer a less than military appearance. The clippers have an adjustable gate on the blades for a slightly less than shaved look. Long cord is nice, also. Comes with oil and cleaning brush. Easy to maintain.Updated: I have also started using this to shave my face when I don't shave for a few weeks. It works so much better than my Norelco trimmer on longer facial hair. I still need to use the Norelco to get it down to stubble, but it only takes about 60 seconds to do so. If you're a bit of hairy guy (guilty), it can clear your chest hair off in a minute, as well.Some of the negative comments on here are atypical, I believe. I will say, this product won't take your hair to the scalp. I can't tell you how close it cuts, but I would imagine it's in the 1/16th to 1/32nd range. If you have a beard trimmer you can finish with that or even a razor would have no trouble at all after the Oster was finished.I don't know if one clipper can be all things to all people, but this is a great all purpose clipper. It won't make you bald, but it will indiscernibly close. It's quiet...for a clipper. It makes less noise than my Norelco trimmer. If you are shaving your head multiple times a week, you don't need these clippers. Any trimmer will do for that frequency.I have only had the Oster for six or so months and it has already paid for itself. Read the comments before your decide which clipper is right for your needs. This product gets 4-5 stars about 88% of the time. The negative reviews are typically from people that didn't do proper research on the inherent limitations of the product or just happened to have received a faulty item (it happens to every type of product and Amazon will take care of you if it does).

Title: owning one is a MUST
Review: Hello if ya'll don't know these Fast Feeds are amazing.They cut at a 000-1A ... I used them 2 weeks ago on myselfand wow, they cut evenly and left me so crispy. (a good thing)My fade was legit. I did a bald fade. yup. freshAmazon was fast and very professional.When I cut my hair the clippers didn't get hot AT ALL.When I cut my cousin's hair I noticed a lil more about the heat.These clippers don't start heating up until about 25+ minutes or so and even then they only get warm. Not too hot.Pros:Light in hand, arm doesn't get tired as fast.They are quiet and powerful.They can cut through both wet and dry hair.I thought I needed two of them but I cancelled one seeing as to how much of a quality clipper this is. MADE IN THE USA BABY!The only cons I have about these bad boysThey don't come with a full set of attachments but you can always get those purple Andis magnetic guards..Conclusion: I love these clippers. They are of high quality.***Update 12/27/2015 - I have been using these on myself and on my friends to develop my skills. Some 400-500 hair cuts later, they still work great. I use these for precision blending, fading out to higher levels of cutting. Great tool. Only needed one after all.I have been using them for years and they only heat up if you don't lube em up right. I use Andis Cool Care spray while they're on to let the oil work itself in. I use em for like 30-45 minutes sometimes and then they start to warm up.If you're looking for a clipper to take out the bulk in a salon setting, use a different one. These can do it but I associate them with blending.I went a little crazy and bought two of these, two of the Limited Edition Chrome ones, and I just bought the Oster Topaz Fast Feeds... Next is going to be the black Oster Speed Line and blue Fast Feeds.

Title: Good stuff
Review: The OSTER Fast Feed Clipper has been a fantastic addition to my grooming routine. I love how sharp the blades are—it cuts through hair effortlessly, making each haircut smooth and precise. The adjustable pivot motor is a standout feature, providing enough power to handle both thick and fine hair without any pulling or snagging.It’s incredibly easy to use, even for someone like me who isn’t a professional barber.

Title: Dependable, well-made clippers
Review: I've been shaving my own hair since the 7th grade and I'm about to turn 33. I would say I'm qualified at this point to review a hair clipper. This is about the 10th clipper I've owned over the years and the first semi-nice pair of clippers I've ever had.Pros:+ Nicely made. Good weight, nice feel in your hands. Not too heavy, not light.+ For the 2 past two years it's been very dependable. It just runs and cuts my hair perfectly every time.+ It comes with 4 combs. 1/2", 1/4", 3/8", and Blending.+ The distance between the cutting blades and the metal comb attached to the clipper is adjustable with a lever.+ By taking the comb off, I'm able to get a pretty decent shave with the clipper on my face and neck. It's decent for leaving stubble, not a close shave.+ It never pulls my hair, regardless of how fast I cut it.Cons:- My clipper has always been pretty quiet but as soon as I put a comb on it buzzes really loud.- It's not the most powerful clipper on the market. I usually have to go over the same spot on my head 2-3 times before I get all of the loose hairs.I oil the blade every time I use my clippers and so far they've been extremely dependable and still cut very well. I can't tell any difference today from when I purchased them two years ago. I expect that these clippers will last for years and I will continue to enjoy them. One day I may upgrade to a more expensive pair, but for now these are the perfect price/performance balance for me. I would give 4.5 stars if that were an option. Highly recommended.

Review: Había estado utilizando clippers de marca Wahl pero siempre su duración ha sido muy corta y son ruidosas; la Oster no es tan ruidosa y corta muy bien. Habrá que esperar la duración, pero se ve mucho más fuerte y mejor construida. Es casi profesional. Su único problema es que se calienta muy rápido, tal vez unos diez minutos trabajando y ya es incómoda para la persona que está recibiendo el corte. Punto a mejorar. A mi me gustó mucho la máquina.

Review: Used for the first time today with much anticipation.I was impressed. Doesn't quite cut right down to the scalp on 0 setting as well as my Wahl's, however it is very very minimal difference, but the way they cut is so much better.Feel like it is made really well. Cutting blade didn't snag, pull or struggle once and that was even with cutting 3 weeks hair growth. Glad I paid the extra for these as they cut really well.

Review: ***My review down below was when we first purchased the clipper. Its been ten months since we had it now and it is fantastic!***We are a family of seven, with four males. We use clippers quite often in our household. As you can imagine, any set of clippers would get a very good work out in our house. We have used Conair brands for a longtime. They function ok for the price. However when our six year old Conair (which is heavy - made it feel like a quality product, powerful and noisy) was giving us problems we bought another brand by Emerson. All I will say you get what you pay for! So we looked for another Conair and could not find one that had the same quality. I googled best clippers and came across this Oster 76023. The reviews of it were glowing. I also remember that many barbers I went to, when I was younger used Oster brand. I figured it must be quality. So through Amazon.ca I ordered one. When we received it I opened up the box to get a feel of it. It felt "heavy" not cheap and plasticky. And by heavy I also mean quality. It felt natural in my hands. When I plugged it in and started it up I was expecting it be loud. However, this unit is extremely quiet when compared to other clippers. In my mind I thought it was another cheap one. Boy was I wrong. I immediately began to cut my 17 year olds hair. Now his hair was about an 1 1/2" long. This clipper had no problem cutting it, even though the longest comb that comes with it is 1/2". I then cut my 13 year olds hair which was a lot shorter and no issue. No pulling the hair either. I then cut mine. It cut it very well. I am totally impressed by this clipper. Three back to back hair cuts and no issues. I highly recommend this clipper. The only downfall is that it does not come with longer combs than 1/2", but that is how Oster sells it. An added bonus which won me over even more, is that this clipper says "MADE IN THE USA". To me "Made in USA or Made in Canada" means quality.

Review: It was probably overkill for my purposes, but it gets the job done and feels like it will last decades (if cared for/not left to rust).

Review: Es una buena máquina a buen precio, en mi caso le doy uso semiprofesional. No le doy las 5 estrellas por qué hay que limpiarla constantemente, quitar el peine, limpiar y volver a colocar. Pero tiene la mejor relación precio - calidad hasta el momento de las 8 máquinas que he comprado. Si quieres algo mucho más profesional la Oster 76 (muy cara para mi gusto) puede ser una opción.
