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....
how? i need a tutorial
Dude, you’re so humble. I can tell you’re a great person. Thanks for another cool vid, and also thanks for the hack tip. I’m getting one now!! haha
Wow bro! That’s that nicest thing someone can hear. I great appreciate it man! 🤜🏼💥🤛🏼
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.
Good stuff!
Really good that you explained the selling of molds
So many things I’m still learning bro!
Very good review I appreciate the detail
Thanks for watching!
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👍
It’s got good bones, we just have to tinker to get the best out of it
Dope review 💪🏾
Thanks brother
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.
I love fellow clipper tinkerers
@@thewoodshedbarber I tend to follow Edounboxing but sometimes I like to do my own thing. Subscribed.
gotta cop this before my barber school starts
great review btw
Love this chanell👊
Thanks man! I really appreciate that
@@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.
Might just be a bad blade. That is odd though especially for Babyliss. How old is the blade?
@@thewoodshedbarber it is about 2 years old the blade and the whole machine. but I have only used it 2 times a week to shave my beard.
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.
💯 percent same as Vader, I agree , I compared to disprove the people saying they’re the same
In regards to the blade, are they by any chance the same size as the wahl blades? Just wondering if I would be able to switch wahl blades onto it. Thanks
Not the moving blade but the still blade yes
@@thewoodshedbarber ah interesting. thanks
Please review Kemei 1856 and 2293!
At 4:32 when you bring up the other clippers with the nice clicks, what is the name of those clippers?
Nvm i think it's the tpob xo
Yep that’s it
Thanks for the reply man. Also can you please tell me what guards does the 2296 come with? Can't find the info anywhere. Just wondering if it has the 0.5 and 1.5 guards @@thewoodshedbarber
@@crayonjambe7515 it doesn't come with a 0.5 and a 1.5 I don't know what guards fit it😕
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.
The VGR 003 is perfect for a beginner. And it’s pretty cheap
Thanks for this review. i changed my blades to the walh magic clip blades. The blade adjuster is the reason why my fading is so hard. I will have to try to modify it to a floating lever
I considered it trash before I did that
You a good person
That’s very nice to say, thank you!
The weight of the product is not listed properly. Can I know the weight? If you also do a review of vgr003, it would be nice if you could tell me the weight then too.
Sorry, I don’t weigh in my reviews as of yet
Mod the lever and that's it...me I removed my click lever so far I have no problem with it
how do you mod it?
Hey man, what do you think of the kemei 1071?
Not tried it yet
Great review and I'm sure the manufacturing company likes you gave it another chance. It's a pass for me though
Same, it’s not good enough for my station but it’s good enough for a beginner
You do know all of tpob is drop shipped with a logo on it too right? Lol
What's the best rezor can you recommend bro
My favorite razor is the Martin Extra long from MD Barber.
How would you rate the clipper after you did the modification of the lever?
For barber usage before it was like a 2 or 3 after I’d say a 6 or 7 which is pretty good for the price.
Is it easy to remove the gear?
Very, it’s just a washer on the taper arm screw
So you do think the trimmer is worth the buy!?
Watch his other trimmer video. The trimmer is legit.
Trimmer? Absolutely
@@valetudo025 I saw it before just checking twice LOL
Whats the mm of the lever fully extended?
It has a fusion style blade so all the way open is probably around 2.7mm
@@thewoodshedbarberkemei say its 4mm open.. That cant be right?
Maybe extending outwards but that’s not how the adjustment works. You just gave me a good video idea
@@thewoodshedbarberthat'd be good
can you fix the clicks ??
You have to take the taper arm off and remove a notched washer to do it
should i get it as my first clipper?
I would go TPOB troll for a first clipper. It’s cheap but quality is high. If you are wanting to really get into barbering.
@@thewoodshedbarberhow much does tpob cost then?
@@Rongoalz the troll can be found from $65-$100 depending
@@thewoodshedbarber alright 👍🏼. But if I want to fade with kemei 2296, there’s no half guard or 1,5 guard. Is it still possible to fade? How should I do?
Can you zero gap
Absolutely
bro the vgr 003 is goat and its just 30 bucks
I just got it to review
2299 or 1986?
I’ve not used the 1986 yet.
The Kemei was out first
Versus the what? The Vader? Or the XO
That clicking lever can be removed
Yep if you watch further I talk about it in the video
