Review (1/5): Product did NOT perform as described or intended
I have 2 nine-year-old dogs, Snickers who is a shihpoo and Charlie who is a cockapoo. They have customary, professional dog grooming appointments every 6-8 weeks for close-to-the-skin haircuts because we spend a lot of time wandering on trails and in forests where they often get covered in burrs, plus we live in an area of central Ontario where Deer Ticks and Lyme Ticks are a REAL concern (I myself have been battling Lyme Disease for 11 years now), so short hair makes checking their coats and skin for ticks during bath-time after a long walk in the forest that MUCH easier. Between regular groomings, I like to trim back the fur around their faces, paws, ears, tummy and genital region. I was hoping this product would make that task easier and safer. Unfortunately, neither bladed comb seems to have worked at all, on any length of the dogs' fur, on ANY part of their coat, whether wet or dry, which is soft and slightly corkscrew curly. No matter how I tried to comb or back-comb their fur to trim it, barely a few strands were shaved off or removed. In fact, the hairs would "catch" in the comb, causing the dogs to yip or withdraw from the pain of the pulled hairs. Now, when they see me coming with the trimming utensil, they run away. So, I'm clearly DIS-satisfied with the product, and would not personally recommend anyone purchase it.
