Never heard of it. I'm quite certain they're shit. Lubricating moving parts is a necessity.

Get some Wahl clippers and oil them or get someone else to cut your hair.

I buy a pair of $20 clippers, run them into the ground, throw them out and start over.

I just use scissors and disposable razors for my facial hair and a comb. For my hair I use nothing. I simply towel dry it and it falls in to place nicely.

I've been using some Remington corded clipper for haircuts for about 9 years now. Needed to start oiling it every month or so couple years back, but the process is just dripping a few spots of oil on the blade and running it for a few seconds. Not sure what Razor is so concerned about. I wouldn't bother with a cordless, additionally.

What I'm searching for is an electric razor that cuts only reasonably close. My damnable curly ginger beard hairs are prone to causing in-growns, so smooth shaving and any electric that pulls the hair before cutting are counter-productive. I've just been using the hair clippers on my face, but it's not really suited for that, and not close enough for my upcoming job. Wasn't sure if someone had some old-fashioned or basic foil type razor to recommend.

I'd buy the iStubble if you want to get it reasonably close.

I use a $20 beard trimmer that keeps me looking nice and sleazy. I prefer the smooth lines of a single blade safety razor, but I had to stop using it because I got a job that would prefer that I did.

Also: I've not trimmed my sideburns in, like, two months. I look like a total bastard.
