It's been working pretty well, so far. I have a good vacuum cleaner so that's not a problem. Figuring out the correct attachments is taking some experimenting. Do like the overall effect and it's great to do the trimming on my schedule. It seems there is a learning curve, but I'm pretty satisfied so far. And if I can learn to use this, anybody can.

It's awkward, heavy and slow. Shop vac or simular needed to have enough suction to pull clean, dry, straight hair up to cut. The type of brittle plastic used to make the spacers will easily break if dropped or handed to rough. Results are ok. I cut my hair myself, always have. I recommend getting someone to help you use this. Haircuts are expensive. You will save money.

Overall I am satisfied after 2 haircuts but will have to see how things hold up. The plastic spacers seem to be flimsy and one piece did break from a fall off the counter. Luckily there are good plastic glues available so I was able to repair before second use. Replacement parts are expensive if they are going to be the same low-grade plastic. For the price I did expect higher quality. I cut my own hair first after watching online videos. Everything went well though the back of my head was the most difficult. It will better in the future has I become more familiar with everything. Next I cut my grandson's hair and everyone says it looks as good as most shops would do. If the unit lasts like many reviews say they do I know it will be a good long-term investment. I would recommend to others but remember to be careful with the plastic parts, they are more fragile than they appear. Read the instructions, watch a few videos and you will soon be able to do nice looking, basic haircuts.Read full review

My hair had gotten so long (7") and felt horrible. I used it to trim back all my hair to about 3" and then used the short extension for the sides. It looks just fine. It's not like a barber's cut but I'm still happy with it. My wife helped with the back where I couldn't see. I recommend using your own more powerful home vacuum because you need the maximum vacuum power to pull the hair up in to the cutting blades when you are using the long cutting extension and IF you have allowed your hair to get as long as mine did, The longer your hair is, the more power you need in the beginning. If your hair is basically short all over, all that power isn't required.

The Flowbee does work and I won't be needing a hair stylist any longer. I would have given it 5 starts, but due to the flimsy attachments I only gave it 4 stars. If they were more sturdy and wouldn't fall off, I'd have given it 5 starts. To ensure they didn't fall off, I had to use Scotch tape to hold them in place. If different people wanted different hair lengths, I wouldn't be able to use tape and my rating would be worse. If the attachment issue was fixed, this would be a solid 5 stars.
