The issues you mentioned are easily fixed. It took me 5 minutes to remove the clicking part and made it smooth adjustable clipper. Now other people complained about your can not zero gapped this clipper well I just did it took me 1 minute very simple....

Hey Matt, thanks for the review. I got mine about six months ago. I paid around $22 total. I adjusted the lever to floating and swamped out the cutting blade. The power is good and I use it on kids. Awesome tool.

Honestly this clipper is becoming ine ofnmy favorites and i have many clippers, including some from tpob. All i did was change the taper blade to a tpob faper blade and made it a floating lever, its essentially y an x clipper but with a plastic casing, that doesn't really bother men, well worth it👍

I got it on a special Christmas deal and it was somewhere around 18 with the discount. Yes, out of the box, the lever is trash and the blade slide at an angle which causes uneven blends. I tried the reverse black piece method and it was slightly better but not good. I tried to replace every style of lever and finally found a solution. I swapped the floating lever from an older model TPOB reaper. It can be zero gapped but the biggest improvement was that it opens as much like a master or fast feed. The slant blade gone. Did a little research and the lever TPOB reaper was from a standard plastic Wahl lever. Not the metal looking 1919. It is now my official go to.

@@thewoodshedbarber I have a question for you who are professionals, I have a babyliss skeleton that gets hot in the blade already after 30 sec. after 1-2 minutes it is very hot. it hurts to shave with it because it starts to sting the cheeks. is it normal for it to heat up so quickly? I have opened and cleaned and oiled a lot but the problem does not go away.

@thewoodshedbarber 4 ай бұрын

Might just be a bad blade. That is odd though especially for Babyliss. How old is the blade?

I noticed that you compared the Kemei to the TPOB, but it's closer to being comparable to the Supreme Vader. They are basically the exact same form factor of each other.

I'm so sad about the lever. The floating lever wouldn't help me cause I'm new. If only we were able to contact them and have them change it. I wanted this as my first clipper so bad. Does anyone else know a clipper this good that is under the radar? Preferably a AliExpress one.
