Remington Quick Cut Hair Clippers with 9 Comb Lengths Curved Blade for Rapid Hair Trimming Detailing with Storage Pouch - HC4250, Black/Red

The media could not be loaded. I have been cutting my own hair for several years and before that my wife used to cut it. I have always used a professional hair clippers and have had both cordless and corded. The clippers that this Remington Quickcut was bought to replace are corded and cost a lot more money. There is nothing wrong with them, but I have found it very difficult to cut my own hair with them and I decided to try and find something a little easier. After a fair bit of research I decided to give these a try.I have just used them for the first time and they are way better than the traditional clippers that they are replacing. Please watch the video for an in-depth look at them and to see how I got on with them whilst cutting my own hair. They are so much easier to use than my other ones. This is partly due to the fact that the blades are curved and fit the contours of my head better. Also they fit into the hand in a way that makes keeping the blade flat against the scalp much easier than the long handle on traditional clippers. This is further enhanced by the absence of a chord. They are much easier to use if you cut your own hair. This also applies if you usually get someone to do it for you too. I found them much quicker too as they were easier to keep flat on my scalp.Inside the box: The clippers, a soft carrying case, Instructions, charger, cleaning brush, oil for the blade and nine different sized combs (see the product description for their sizes). In the video I use the clippers without a comb and they cut my hair very short (1mm according to the instructions).The clippers have a battery that should last around 40 minutes. I reckon it took me around 5 minutes to cut my hair and beard so plenty of cuts on one charge. It recharges from flat in 4 hours. A brilliant feature is the ability to use them from the mains socket, with the power adapter plugged in, if the battery is flat. The mains adapter has a cable of around 6 feet length so it would be possible to cut your hair easily this way. It does state that constantly using the clippers via the mains will shorten the life of the battery. Personally, I love the fact that the clippers are cordless and would only use this feature if I ran out of charge. The unit also has a quick charge feature that may allow you to finish a cut if the battery runs out. 10 minutes charge time will give an “emergency burst of runtime”.The clippers are easy to clean. They are water resistant and are designed to be switched on and rinsed under a tap. The blades can easily be removed to give the clippers a more thorough clean with the brush provided. They did not need this after I cut my hair, but I showed it in the video. Three drops of oil on the running blade and then the clippers can be put away ready for the next cut.There is another clipper called the Shortcut that is quite a bit more expensive than the Quickcut. If you are wondering what the difference is; the Shortcut is completely waterproof and can be used whilst showering to keep the mess down. I like to cut my hair in the shower, but when it is dry, before I actually turn it on. Also, I like to check that I have not missed anything in the mirror before I shower, so for me the Quickcut is fine.I love using these clippers. They are much easier and quicker than my old ones. There is no chord to deal with so you can cut your hair anywhere. They are quiet, fit nicely in the hand and are ergonomic to use. At no time did they feel like they were unsafe or had the potential to cut me around the ears or nose. I was very comfortable using them. I cannot vouch for how long they will last, but after reading other reviews and owning other Remington equipment, I think that they will be a good purchase. I loved using them and I reckon you will too if you are fed up of struggling to cut your hair with conventional corded hair clippers.

The Remington Quick Cut hair clippers are incredibly effective. They make home haircuts a breeze, with easy-to-use controls and a powerful cut. I'd definitely recommend them for anyone looking for a reliable and efficient clipper.

Decent product and I believe could be better ?Well ergonomically designed and easy to use but I do find that it does pinch now and again especially if it’s not fully charged and blades cleaned frequently?Good finish, lightweight and decent price.Good range of attachments and not too noisy.

Brilliant. Easy to use and no messy cords. They’ve saved me a job!

I regularly buzz cut my own hair at home, makes life a lot easier for my circumstances. I had been persevering with an old set of Nicky Clarke clippers I purchased in the late 90's, despite being a little awkward to work with they actually did a decent job and they certainly lasted well. Eventually the blades dulled and I recently replaced them with a set of Wahl clippers from Amazon based on a lot of positive reviews. However, the Wahl's turned out to be absolute pants. They did indeed have nice sharp titanium blades (Wahl's big selling point) but the blades barely moved to actually cut anything, multiple adjustments failed to improve them. They ripped hair out rather than cut through it and after nigh on discovering what it felt like to be scalped by a 'Native American' a couple of times the Wahl's quickly ended up in the bin. Thankfully, I then found these Remington HC4250 Quick Cut clippers. A little pricey, but Remington are a solid brand and they were definitely worth it in this instance. I got them on offer for £34, (but noticed as I type they're currently selling on Amazon for £25 which is a serious bargain for this set)!!I've waited until I had used these Remington clippers a few times before reviewing to provide better information. My other clippers would frequently take 3 or 4 (or more) passes to get the job completely done and tidy up. 1 pass with these and for the most part you're quickly done!! Certain areas sometimes need a brief 2nd pass due to the curve in the blades and the shape of the head or face, but they are miles better than other clippers I've used. They're so much easier to hold and work with if buzzing your own head at home. They're also nice and grippy so they don't end up shooting across the room as you cut. Took a little getting used to the 1st couple of cuts due to their shape but you do rapidly adjust to them. Long or short hair, beard/stubble trimming, they just glide effortlessly through it all and the curve in the blade really helps to cover larger areas in a single pass. I haven't tried the attachments admittedly, but they seem to lock and hold on the unit well (the attachments would easily and frequently fall off the standard clippers I had). I just use these clippers as they are which gives a nice close and even all round cut. Battery life isn't amazing but they get the job done so quickly I can certainly forgive them for that, (they can be used with the cable but it's not very long and would undoubtedly be restrictive). I just give them a quick 45 minute charge every time I use them and keep them fully topped up. They're also completely waterproof for easy cleaning, etc. Full range of attachments are included in decent retail packaging, along with a wall charger, small bottle of blade oil, cleaning brush, and a travel pouch. They're really small in comparison to a standard pair of clippers and would be ideal to take on travels as well. They look good, they're well made, specifically designed to sit nicely in the hand or between your fingers as you work, and they do a solid job incredibly quickly. VERY impressed with these as an entire package. I just hope they last but LiPo cells obviously have a fairly limited life. I expect that will be the first thing to go and I doubt they're manufactured for the LiPo cells to be user serviceable either.Still..... 5/5. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

I first bought these Remington clippers during lockdown whrn the hairdressers closed down. They have been so good that I have not been back to a hairdressers on the four years since.However my original set have just started to fail. Basically the clippers do not hold their charge anymore so need to be constantly plugged in.But I can have no complaints after four years of regular use.So I did not hesitate in buying another set. The price was virtually identical to four years ago, which is pretty impressive. My only gripe is that my original set came with a smart fitted zipped bag for the clippers, but this set only comes with a much cheaper pull cord general bag to hold the clippers and all the accessories.But that is not the end of the world, as it does not affect the quality and performance of the clippers which is just as good as the original.Very even cut. Big range of length accessories. Also comes with specialist brush to clean the clippers after use, and a small bottle of oil to lubricate the cutting mechanism as required.In summary, I would recommend these clippers for ease of use, quality of finish, and value for money.
