Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I purchased both the Mangroomer and the Remington HC4250. They are both targeted to people who want to shave their heads with clippers and seem to be the two direct competitors on Amazon. With the hundreds of positive reviews, I expected to keep the Remington clippers, as Mangroomer is clearly the underdog, but I am keeping the Mangroomer. Details as to why are below. I cut my hair using no guard, right down to stubble now, beard and all. Previously, I'd been using the Remington MB200 with a guard, which has been great, although switching to these made me realize I'd been blind to how narrow the blade is compared to the nice wide blade on these, which makes the job much faster. Here are some of the key points between the two, and who has the edge: Closeness of shave: If you look closely at the two shavers, the Remington has an extra millimeter or two from the edge of the stationary blade and the blade that vibrates. Mangroomers blade edges are closer aligned, resulting in a slightly closer shave. Basically Remington has a big underbite, Mangroomer has a small underbite. Winner: Mangroomer Battery life: both clippers get the job done so incredibly fast that I feel this is irrelevant. Winner: Tie? No idea. Power: turning on both the clippers, you can hear Mangroomers blades clearly vibrate faster. I have coarse hair (on the side of my head still at least!) Remington's clippers caused a little bit of tugging and I was forced to slow down. Mangroomer ran right through it like butter. Winner: Mangroomer. Blade feel: I didn't think I'd like a curved edge, but it actually feels really nice against the curve of your head and gets the job done faster. This round goes to Remington. Quality: both are plastic, and feel pretty mid-range in quality. Some reviews called this a lower-end version of Remington, but I don't feel that's the case. Both feel the same in quality and build. Both feel fine in your hand. Tie. Price: Mangroomer is cheaper. Overall winner: Mangroomer. I do really wish it had the curved blade like Remington, but I felt that was Remington's only redeeming factor and not important enough of a factor. If Mangroomer came out with a new, curved blade version, I feel it would be a total sweep for them compared to Remington. Also would be nice if they had a single adjustable guard instead of a bunch of different sized guards to clip on, much easier to deal with and less to keep track of. If any issues are encountered with the product I'll update. As of right now I'm excited my grooming process will be cut down to about 1/3 of the time.
