Very disappointing.
I purchased this set to keep my hair cut, as well as my nephews, and brother. The tabs on the smaller combs broke off on the second hair cut and now this is useless as they do not sell replacement guides for this set.
I have never been disappointed with Remington before this but, unfortunately this has colored my opinion.
Update (5/19/2012): This item is currently on sale here for the lowest price I’ve seen. I also found some auctions for this item here.

Will wear out on you fast
I bought this a while ago to cut my own hair. Now that I’m older, there’s much less hair to deal with and I can’t really justify paying for haircuts when they all look bad regardless of how much I pay. So, I got the bright idea of getting this item on sale and doing my own hair. It worked great the first couple of times, but even though I oiled the blades, they went dull fast By the third haircut, it felt like it was yanking all my hair out instead of cutting it. Ouch! Plus, I looked totally retarded with clumps of hair sticking out amidst short cut hair. It took way to long to make it look right again.

Gotta agree with the negative reviews here
I purchased 1 remmington about 3 years ago that lasted me a long time.
so when that one broke, it was obvious i was buying another remington.
Well just like the two other bad reviews
I had the SAME Problem, the little tabs that hold the combs in
break after 2-3 uses. I was so disappointed after the first time the little tab broke, but decided what the heck, i’ll buy another. thinking I’ll be really careful. 3-4 uses later SAME THING. I cant believe i own 2 brand new remington hair trimmers. WHICH ARE NOW USELESS TO ME. I’m gonna switch to another brand for now until Remington gets their act together. Avoid this product for now. Very Disappointing
