Is this easy enough to use for someone who has never used clippers?

Yes and the best clippers I've owned. I cut both mine and the dogs hair. Other clippers snag but these cut like knife through butter. Easy to clean and change cutting head.

Yes, it's easy to use. I observed what the barber would do when he buzzed my head, and now do the same thing myself.

Never tried it like that. Decent clippers but not the sharpest nor most accurate.

It is very difficult to grab your nails.. but when you do grab them, it cuts easily. Not the easiest clippers to use. It does not have a compartment to catch the clippings. Hope this helps.

I suppose you could, but the noise is probably going to scare it.Unless you are really experienced, I'd advise against it. Get old fashioned clippers...safer and quieter.

Amazon.com will recommend you some when you are viewing this clipper, but I haven't tried them myself.

These are the best clippers ever, you can not make a mistake with them and the blade lifts up and pulls off. Very simple to use

YES! Love this clipper. I am a hairstylist and have shaved heads and used it for great finish work on cuts. My favorite clipper. My only issue is I use it so much battery does not have time to recharge enough. I need two of them. Mary Marchese

You can, I honestly don't recommend these clippers though. Mine lasted only two months.

I love these clippers. They're very easy to use; hold a charge a long time and do a great job. I'm trying not to think of myself as elderly, but there you have it, I'm pretty close! I too have small arthritic hands but still find this tool to be excellent. Hope you like it as much as I do.

You sure can and it is not all that hard. Just pick up the closest comb from the set and follow the instructions on the clipper package. Or even better, check YouTube for detail video.

Yes. It is an awesome clipper. Super easy to clean. Hope my new one lasts 20 years like my old one did

it's very easy to use and really useful. All knife I sharpened, can cut hair like razor. You can find some nice video on youtube that can help you more to use it.

We have never used the other product. We previously had a cheaper clipper from another company. With this one, my husband or my son could easily do most of the cut themselves until they reached the back of the head or the ears. Initially they even do those but it is a "rough cut.",

Not at all, I haven't used a trimmed an years, and using this one wasnt bad!

how are the clippers different? the ones I bought are the ones in the picture, they are very easy to use.

That isn't used anymore, because it's not necessary, it's the equivalent of training wheels on a bike. And the answer is no my friend, angle the clippers yourself.

Even though this is not the main reason I bought this clipper -I did use it in this way when I first got it and it works really well. And based on reviews of the balding clipper -I think there is less likely hood of cutting yourself. But since I haven't used the balding clipper I am not sure if it will give a closer trim.
