how often should I buy a new one?

How often to replace depends on frequency of use. I can say that I have not had to replace my Oster Rake in 4-5 years of frequent use. Also, please note that only the teeth need replacing. And I have yet to replace the teeth of mine yet. I am a professional pet groomer.

I am using the rake on my dog for a few weeks only. The working principle does not depend on sharpness at all. My Golden Retriever loves it.I think I would use it for a very long time.

I had mine for several years before I bought a new one. I just cleaned the old one regularly

I have had mine for about 4 years with no problems. Every so often I will buy a new one just to be on the safe side.

I seem to have to replace mine every 18 months or so. Really depends on how much tv you watch.

I only bought one. Three years later the other one is still good. Probably doing both makes the most sense.

Hello I do know that the manufacturer says every six months but I do think it is all according to the situation you're in I have two of these units in my place and if I do not change every month there is a big problem.Thank you so much for your informationJohn P. S. You did ask me my opinion that is my opinion.

I use mine 3 or 4 times a week. So far it looks and feels like brand new. Should last a long time if taken care of.

I use one about every 2 weeks. If you keep them clean they last a long time

Sure, you can clean and reuse...in the manual it states that you must replace them every two months

It depends on the usage. I use my when I travel, which is about a dozen times a year for about a week each time and they have lasted for years.

I had an old one that lasted 20 years. These new ones don't last anywhere near that. I use mine on e a week every week so we will see. My friends have had them that never work right and don't hold up. New cards help the situation. The rubber treads wear out faster these days. I think it is the luck of the draw.

They are a bit expensive at $35 a pop, especially when you need ten or so, as I did. However, since this was the original equipment in the house, replacement was pretty easy. Although, the white power connector inside was sometimes difficult to disconnect. All that said, $350 for a replacement every ten years isn't all that bad. Make sure that the replacement date, which is stamped into the outer plastic is for around ten years from purchase.

That's for one. If your buying cools for under $20 each, you should plan to change them frequently. Once a year or so

I use it twice per day primarily on my hands. I need to buy a new one about every month.

For me it's about once a year. Remember that you can save money by just buying replacement crystals and unscrewing and refilling your original cartridge.

You need to replace it every 2-3 weeks or things get a bit too funky. Fantastic product - although I recommend Fresh Patch brand. It lasts longer.

We change ours once a year. Not sure if that is what is recommended though...
