Kemei KM 2293 is it any good?

[@smokeyj6207]

I watched this video and decided to pick this trimmer up. You are correct,they are hitting right out the box! They are better than the 2299 to me and much more quiet. Feels great in the hand with the metal body. Well worth the $15 i paid 😁 Thanks!

[@scizzahands]

Awesome yea I’ve been using mine everyday I actually love them 🦾🚌💈

Hi Scizza, good to hear a barber like yourself, not spouting hyped up BS about overpriced clipper brands, trying to maximise their profits at other barbers expenses Thank you.. keep rockin..

[@scizzahands]

Thank you for understanding where I’m coming from and thanks for watching 🙏🏼 I’ll do my best to keep the videos coming 🦾🚌💈

[@SirDuksalot]

Love how honest and straight to the point your videos are, man. Easy subscription for me. Quick one: from all clippers & trimmers in this video, which would you recommend for monthly trims? I got a big stylish beard. I cut my hair myself and just take off a little bulk and do a nice simple fade with crispy edges. Keep up the great work & have a happy new year!

[@scizzahands]

Thank you I really appreciate the feedback 🦾💈🚌.. I have a video up of my Top 5 finds this year and all of them are great those are what I recommend all and I use them daily as a barber. Happy New year!🎆

Hi mate, im gonna get the kemei 2293 and vgr 003 (I believe theyr'e the best trimmer and clipper I this price range). Do I need to change blades? For self barbering BTW.

[@scizzahands]

You can’t go wrong they are top notch at that price point and for self cutting you won’t need to swap anything just might want premium guards. 🦾🚌💈

[@m.r.v.n9982]

Is the vgr trimmer better than the kemei 2293? Appreciate the videos btw!!!

[@scizzahands]

2293 well above the vgr. 🦾🚌💈 I appreciate you tuning in and watching.

[@Dave2662]

Had the same issue with babyliss gold fx blade. Under the neck was terrible

[@scizzahands]

I was absolutely furious when spent the money on the TPOB xo and I literally couldn’t cut with it … my clients would be like wtf that thing it pulling hard .. I’ve never had a machine do that. But this Kemei is still chugging along as my go to daily 🦾🚌💈

[@muazzi9559]

Thanks man. much appreciated.

[@scizzahands]

No problem .. doing my best 🦾💈🚌

[@mrmartin4542]

Love the review! Would you recommend this for self trimming a beard with beard guards on, or is it only good for lines etc? If not, what would you recommend for someone who’s wanting to trim a beard at home but not fork out a huge amount of money? My Wahl died on me the other day, so am looking for something that strikes a good balance between effectiveness and cost (preferably on the cheaper side 😂).

[@scizzahands]

I’d recommend the VGR V-640 set I’ve done a video on that as well

[@mrmartin4542]

@ Thank you!

[@scizzahands]

@ no problem 🦾🚌💈

[@amirprog]

J ust got my Kemei 993, wow, great construction. Can't believe this costs so cheap. When i do a full head self bald cut with Kemei 2293 should i cut with the tip side or with the flat side? What is the difference? better go against the grain or with the grain or both?

[@scizzahands]

I freakin love mine I use them all day as my go to trimmer .. flat side against the grain 👌🏼🦾🚌💈

[@lowsaiyan]

Hey man, thank you for the video. I bought the trimmer after I saw your video. I just have a question, how do I use the liquid that was in the box? And when should I use it?

[@scizzahands]

Awesome glad it was helpful. That’s oil for the blade just use a couple drops on each sides of the blade where they rub together… helps to do it when it’s on to move the oil where it needs to be then whip excess .. you do this when you feel your blade is dry or getting hot fast usually after cleaning it really well. Helps also prevent faster wear and rusting of the blade

[@jehanzeb-zb6is]

Looks great. Is km-2293 better than kemei km-i32S for dry shaving, finishing and bulk removing facial hair ? Are these trimmers still working for you ?

[@scizzahands]

I32s is complete junk compared to to the 2293 and yes I’m still using it everyday as my man trimmer absolutely in love with it and actually though when ordering it would be junk but it’s great

[@jehanzeb-zb6is]

@@scizzahands thanks for the honest review. I also came across Kemei km-1855. It has brushless motor and my first impression is that it's very accurate and is safe for using on facial hair. In your experience, does Kemei km-2293 give a clean shaven look and is comfortable to use on face and neck ? What do you think about km-1855 ? If you are planning to make another video include km-1855 and Lence pro FF1T too. May be compare them with other trimmers you have used. Love your channel.

[@nikolasimsic5577]

Hi, I'm looking to buy clipper and trimmer and VGR640 set is the option. I noticed that you like kemei 2293 better... Which clipper do you recommend with this kemei 2293? Btw great videos :)

[@freddyceeclaudio9990]

Have you tried putting the baybliss goldfx blade on it ?

[@scizzahands]

Everything I’ve tried babyliss I did not like.

[@DNMBaccus]

Did you change the blade on these or had the original blade sharpened?

[@scizzahands]

I have done absolutely nothing but adjust it to my zero gap preference and still have been using it as my only trimmer everyday. It’s not the most quiet or nice looking but this is my favorite right now

[@YouTuberGuy2]

Thanks for the review. Is Kemei km-2293 suitable to use for sensitive skin ? I am looking for a new trimmer for dry shaving my facial hair. There are dry shaving trimmers like Kemei km-2351and km-2350 but these are out of my budget. I was thinking if I could put another less costly blade on Kemei 2293 but not sure which kemei or babyliss replica blade will fit.

[@scizzahands]

Yes it does exactly on sensitive skin and the blade that it comes with is better than babyliss in my opinion

[@YouTuberGuy2]

@@scizzahands thank you. Sorry for the typo - the new trimmers were Kemei 2351 and kemei 2350. The Kemei 2293 blade seems sharp so it will last longer. However is there any precautions you would like to share while using it ? The kemei km-i32 blade is not that sharp but I doubt that trimmer or it's blade lasts very long.

Kemei

[@Mogg_king]

Hey there! Everyone keeps saying it can be zero gapped but for some reason I’m not able to. I’m not so sure why? Am I the only person???

[@scizzahands]

The two screws on the moving blade are how you zero gap it. Zero gap just refers to being able to adjust the placement of the moving blade. Everyone’s zero gap is different it’s all preference. You do not want the moving blade placed even with the non moving blade you will strike blood.

[@Scraggio-d9m]

Dude have you ever had a error code on your new vgr clipper came up on mine then stopped crazy my other vgr was slick carnt find eney info on error codes 😅❤

[@scizzahands]

No I haven’t had any issues with mine thankfully and haven’t heard anyone else having errors codes. I’ll come back to this comment if I find any info.

[@x3asem]

How did you zero gap it bro

[@scizzahands]

It can be zero gapped without removing the blade if you have the right tool but mine came perfect out the box I have not had to touch the blade

[@nicereviews5151]

Does the blade heat up fast

[@scizzahands]

It’s hasn’t for me .. I haven’t had any complaints

[@EricStach-j1b]

do you know which interchangeable blade i can use for 2293 And do you also know if there are more trimm clippers for the kemei 2293 (1,3,4,5,6,8mm)

[@scizzahands]

It’s interchangeable with babyliss and TPOB xo .. as far as guard barbers don’t use guards on our trimmers so I’m not sure if they have other sizes

[@LS-pv4dh]

​@@scizzahandsthe kemei 1931 came with a guard set....that will not be used. 😭😭😭 and they are cool. Btw. Used gtx blades on em. Gonna try these w the babyliss blades. Thx alot cuzn

[@TylerAntonietti]

Hey man. I broke my Kemei 2293 blade today by dropping the damn thing. Do you know if the 2299 blade will fit on the 2293. Hoping you know. They look interchangeable.

[@scizzahands]

Idk Forsure but I believe they are interchangeable.

[@TylerAntonietti]

​@scizzahands thank you for responding. I think the 2299 has ever so slightly wider holes so I'm so stumped now. I can get a TPOB psycho blade but no one anywhere can tell me if I need to re use the kemei cutter cause if so then that won't work either cause I broke the cutter and blade when I dropped it. Might just have to buy a whole new one. Would you recommend the VGR 006 or still the 2293?

[@scizzahands]

@@TylerAntonietti man that sucks I was thinking that if I break mine and can’t find a blade I’m just going to order another I love it so much. It about the same price as a big brand replacement.

[@TylerAntonietti]

@@scizzahands Yea for the price of blades you could order a whole other unit. It's like 35 on Amazon I think. They are great trimmers. I might just get a new one since the TPob pyscho blade is like 3 dollars less then the a whole new trimmer. I'm not a barber so I don't know anything about it. But you obviously do so I was curious do blade swaps make that much of a difference or you think the stock blade is plenty good especially for someone like me who just uses it for myself. Leaning towards just getting a whole new trimmer.

[@scizzahands]

@ my experience with TPOB and babyliss blades were not good the factory on the 2293 is amazing in my opinion.. and if you order it on AliExpress I think it’s like $23 bucks or so.

[@amirprog]

Is it safe and comfortable to use the 2293 for whole head self bald cut? It won't cut the skin? What is its cutting length?

[@scizzahands]

It cuts nice and close and cutting skin or not is based on how zero gapped your blade is and the angle you hold it at .. but they cut excellent just don’t expect bald from any trimmer .. they are not shaver.. I’d describe it as a very close 5 o’clock shadow.. I use them when doing skin fades to take the hair down then use a shaver to get to bald I love them

[@amirprog]

@@scizzahands For whole head cut would you say 2293 get the closest to bald head? Also, what shaver would you say is the best for shaving the head for true bald? I see some use foul shavers, some rotary shavers, some razor...

[@scizzahands]

@@amirprog 2293 yes … I like foil shavers is what I use on my clients I feel it gets the closest shave with the least irritation for most

I’m so happy that people like yourself are starting to notice and not just caught in hype. My TPOB XO trimmer blade was the same and I tried on a wet stone as well then had my brother who has become like an expert in blade honing and it was just to much of a mission so I just avoid them all together now.

Is the Kemei much louder than the VGR v640 trimmer? It seems like it would be loud. Since the VGR blades are not adjustable any idea where to find replacement “stock” blades?

@Sir-Kay I don’t necessarily like to but my goal is find cheap quality machines that cut so good we don’t have to. With the 2293 I’ve been so overly satisfied with factory blade that came on it I haven’t had the desire to try another blade.

hey bro I wonder what Shaver's do you use is it only one or multiple?? and if so what brand ?

[@scizzahands]

I’ve always used the Andis double foil shaver .. I tried the Andis resurge I liked it at first but I feel like it gets dull faster and always would go back to the original double foil. I also use a TPOB mini skull shave but only for the hard to get spots. I’m definitely interested in finding something stronger and has foil and blades that last longer .. but I like being able to pick up replacements local if mine breaks.
