Disgusting
By Amazon Customer on December 31, 2018
I've just opened the box to find that there's already hair in the blades and the brush is already dirty. There's also the marking that's already leaving town.

Second picture is just after using the clippers being reviewed.
Be Careful!
Do not push hard!
Keep the flat against the head!
They have very sharp edges that grab!
I felt it necessary to start with a warning as you could easily hurt your self or others using these clippers.
However, I should also be clear these clippers cut very short when used without a comb. Feels like the second day after a clean razor shave, so in that regard they deliver as advertised, no doubt.
They cut the hair very easily when used flat against the head, and didn't hurt me as far as I can tell. It took about ten minutes to shave my head as I kept having to find an angle that the clippers would glide on my head and not dig in and grab. I thought of the images I saw of people who had been scratched or hurt using these clippers.
They vibrate strongly and I had to readjust my grip a few times as they were sliding a bit. The vibes didn't affect my haircut but I was careful as I felt I had to respect this machine more than my usual clippers.
If you want a very short nearly shaved head, these work great. They are less convenient and forgiving to use as my usual clippers but they get much closer to the skin.
EDIT: I have had the clippers for a few months now, I use the oil provided after every other use and my clippers have rusted. They have never even been wet, I used them once when I was sweaty, and if that made them rust then I seriously question the quality of this product. Every thing is made in China, and honestly I'm wondering if my clippers are a knock off.
I have used a set of Phillips rechargeable clippers for years and they have zero rust, and I honestly oil them rarely. I mention this as an honest comparison. I wouldn't recommend these.

Pros:
-Provides a very close cut, not far off the shave of a razor. Far better than budget trimmers I've used
-Powers through longer (2 week in my case) stubble with zero issues
-Cord length is good for most uses. I wouldn't mind it being a foot longer but then we get into more storage issues
Cons:
-When I peeled off the plastic cover (similar to what comes on electronic screens) it also peeled off the stars with it (see picture). This gave a really awful first impression regarding quality. 2 stars.
-As most reviews state, this trimmer is NOT beginner friendly. It needs to be kept at a very shallow angle or it will bite you. It's rare that I give myself a trim without a bit of a bite somewhere on my head. My GF is too scared to use this trimmer on me.
-Trimmer is poor at getting around the ears due to the point above. It's tough to hold a shallow angle around the ears.
-The "carrying case" is instead a plastic tray (see pic). It's awful. I'm taking great clip of this clipper and it sucks to have to stick it on this unwieldy tray after using it. I've had budget Wahl trimmers that come with a carrying case.
-Provided oil container leaks and is tough to clean up... at least it leaks on the plastic carrying tray
-When I squeeze the trimmer hard I can see the top and bottom covers tighten together. It becomes much quieter when I do this. I've been unable to tighten it with a screwdriver to achieve this affect permanently. Not the best craftsmanship.
Although I've listed a lot of cons, they're relatively minor compared to the quality of cut this trimmer provides. At the end of the day I bought it to give myself a close trim and it does a great job of doing that. It's not a perfect trimmer but I'm satisfied with my purchase and I expect it to last for years to come.

A good clipper -- with some issues
By Andrew on January 15, 2021
At this point I've used the trimmer about 15 times on my head, always without a guard. My general feeling is that the Wahl Balding is overall a great purchase, but there are some issues that ought to be addressed to make this thing nearly perfect.By Andrew on January 15, 2021

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 18, 2019
That Clipper wasn't what i was expected overall it took ages to come to me and as well i had a very bad experience using it. As you can see on the pictures i provided it had a bad impact on the skin and also was sort of faulty because it was making a rattling noise. The machine itself was way too heavy and difficult to hold. I do not recommend that product at all to any body. Because it took ages to arrive i missed out the period to return it and was a lot of difficulties after that with the seller at first they decline to accept it and after i provided those pics they accept it back again took way too long to get the refund back. I would like to thanks to amazon team for making this process easier for me and get my money in the end. Overall i had very bad experience with Five&Stars UK, poor product and poor costumer service. I wouldn't recommend them at all.

très très déçu !!!Reviewed in France on May 21, 2019
je connais cette marque et là je viens de recevoir une pour cadeau !
surprise elle n’est pas veuve et comporte des poils et quelques rayures sur la coque .
clairement elle a déjà été utilisée ! honteux !
de plus le packaging est très bas de gamme par rapport à ce que je connais !
on voit nettement que cela a été reconditionné à la va-vite !
juste une coque moulée en plastique et la tondeuse posée dessus . ( accessoires neufs en revanche je n’ai rien à redire )
mais cela n’est pas hygiénique du tout !!!!
je ne recommenderai plus c’est fini ça me dégoûte
