I have two. Gold one and Teal. The teal is better quality but they are both still great. Kept the cutting blade it came with but swapped the top blade with a Faper on both. They are my go-to's. I really don't use any other clippers now. The play in the lever was fixed on the gold one by just taking the lever and blade off and reseating everything. Seemed to work just fine. 4 months of using both exclusively and all I don't like is the battery run time. On full power these drain pretty quick but I bought them for $27 each so having more than one is not a problem. Everyone in the shop loves them but some don't like the weight. 9/10 clipper for me. I have used every brand almost and these made me drop my Rebels and .50 cal. The matching V906 trimmer is a beast too for $20. The stock blade hits well, but you can directly swap a skeletonFX blade onto it with no moding. Just use the Cam follower from the stock blade on the FX.
may i ask, whats the difference between the gold and teal one. i just got mine, the teal one. but i ordered the gold one. pls help, i need a convincing reason
I stretched my bracket out with my dremel and burr bits and slapped the new Babyliss MIM blade on it...I f'n love it!!! I also have a JRL that I swapped motors with the VGR V003 motor and that thing is a BEAST!!!
I did not get a dud. My lever is solid. I do agree with the blade. It does not hit exactly the way I want. I tried to put the ergo/phantom cutting and still blade but it don’t fit. Then I tried to put the magic clip on it but don’t fit. If they didn’t make the cam follower so different and match majority of the standard Wahl type, I would have been a lot happy with it. Definitely great for clipper over comb and bulk. Current go to at the moment.
Most definitely got a dud,because my arm doesn't do that on mine, and I've tried it with a few different blades. The TPOB XO blade and the Babyliss MIN blade both make it feel like a $150 clipper.
I actually have one and the blade that it come with was not all that so i put the fapper blade on it and it the one i pick up most and it dont take 3 houres to charge less of a time
Will this get an update like the Kemei 003 after some use? Hopefully it's better than expected like the Kemei 2299, but not a huge lever problem like the Kemei.
😂 did you even see my JRL video? I’m not sponsored by JRL or any company really. I do have working relationships with Andis, Babyliss, and TPOB but if you go back and watch I’ve been brutally honest even with those companies. Please don’t insult my integrity without any evidence to back it up. I take this very seriously and will not cash out to anyone. Thanks for watching though. Please don’t assume, ask instead. Peace and love 🤜🏼💥🤛🏼
Put a JRL or madeshow fade blade on it. Me personally i take the clicks out. the lever has internal clicks and a lil play like the jrl. It's a hell of a clipper for $50, $80 with the blade. And you can use your regular wahl/ stylecraft guards with it. You can modify the bracket if you want it to open wider. And the battery is the real deal. They're definitely worth $80. Try it and lmk how u like em. You don't even "have to" use the 2nd speed. I got every clipper and trimmer except the babyliss fx ones. And these right there with any one of em. Idk how long they last😂. But all these mf b f***ing up🤷🏿♂️
I like to call it onyx on steroids:) I just reviewed it couple of days ago. Very solid machine.. it’s powerful so it’s sucha great Robin to your Onyx Batman :) Especially with that kind of money! This could be like JRL branding and would sell for 100$ easy

Great sharing of knowledge
Does the faper blade require modding?

@@zaynabill Just the color. Although my gold one has a better battery life, they are the same in every other way.

Interesting 🤔 that MIM blade is fire! I may need to tinker a bit
@thewoodshedbarber I think you'll like it mayne!
hey bro what side do you grind off the lower part of the bracket or the top part ?

mines doesn't have that play and I completely disagree but I respect you opinion
Might have gotten a dud 🤷🏻♂️
Different people different groove… me personally I love em with the Babyliss MIM blade.
I may need to tinker with that. I’ve got a spare blue one

thats a shame about the lever arm... the v003 i have does not seem to have that same issue
Like I said in the video, maybe I got a dud 🤷🏻♂️
Love your videos my brotha.
Thanks man!!

Removing the click make a big difference, but it just wasn’t for me
Which one do you choose between vgr 682 and 003?
You murdered the poor clipper 😂 cmon big guy….
JRL lever play is spongy also so I think he’s just saying all this bc he’s sponsored by JRL and didn’t wanna say this is one of the best clippers out.
What's up Joeski I hope all is well 😊

dude I got mine for $26
@@marfigue777 that's on aliexpress it take 2 weeks to get delivered. And $50 on Amazon 2 day or next day delivery
Hey buddy could link an offer to one of those madeshow fade blades so that I’m not going to buy the wrong stuff which probably won’t be compatible
Hi. Where can I buy a spare blade for VGR 003 on aliexpress? Thank you.
I ordered the MRD clip fade blade. The 2.0. Started to try the madeshow wedge fade blade. Blade here inna wk.
Brother switch original blade for jrl fade blade and you gonna see it in the completely different perspective 🫡
I may need to give it another try
if i installed a fusion blade of style craft on it, would it be better ?
Maybe, to me the problem was the fade arm
how many positions has the lever? I'm no barber, but would this last if I occasionally cut people's hair.. let's say ..20 cuts per year?
5 positions. And absolutely! It’s perfect for that
Mine has 6 positions, clicking 5 times🤷🏻♂️ i don’t know why and if it’s fixable
do you think the vgr taper blade fits on the tpob machines? like the reaper or the candy? i really want to know, thank you in advance
It absolutely should, same hole pattern
@@thewoodshedbarber alright thanks man!!!
Sir, is it good for complete shaving of beard. or it is only good for hair? My beard is too thick and dense. Will it be a good chice for me?
I think it would work well
Hey bro any top tier guards you would recommend for the vgr 003 that will fit ?
I’m a big fan of the Wahl premiums and the TPOB pro guards. But I don’t think you can get them separate from the clipper though
Had a great report on the clipper then at the end says.. doesnt have a place in my station lol
Did you watch til the blade wobble?
Does the VGR 003 open to a 3.5mm?
Nope, the blade it comes with doesn’t support that depth
Please review Kemei 1856 and 2293!
Can this clipper become a floating lever?
Yes I found out later it can
Hi. Where can I buy a spare blade for VGR 003 on aliexpress? Thank you.
Honestly no clue
Does it work with other guards?
It does!
Which is better, Kemei 2296 with a JRL blade or VGR 003 with its original blade?
I would still go VGR
@@thewoodshedbarber Thanks for answering my question

Is whal is the best
I don’t think Wahl is that great except for the senior. It’s one of the greatest
Thanks for true review , will be tis clipper, waiting delivery for 24$ in Russian amazon (ozon)
Hope you enjoy it!

May I ask why? I take barbering very seriously, however I don’t take myself too seriously and I feel jokes are a way to kill ego and cut the tension
