Robi Comb Pro Electronic Lice Comb

Great does the job brilliantly

Its cheaply made i put new batteries in and it doesn’t buzz, just makes beeping sound. Waste of money because there is no returns

Excellent product highly recommend

Slightly disappointed and expected better from something with the higher star ratings. Works ok on shorter hair but with longer hair could see the lice and after trying to remove with the comb it wasn't picking them out and they were going straight through the combing and staying in the hair. Effective for the bigger lice but not so effective for the smaller ones and eggs.

Was a little dubious about purchasing this after reading others reviews but I went for it anyway as we had spent so much on the branded chemical treatments to no avail.The lice on my daughters hair kept returning and were certainly immune to the chemicals.As a result I thought this had to be worth a go.On opening I have to say that I was happy with the quality and construction and found it to be no way flimsy.The unit has 2 modes, both will electrocute and kill the nits.Mode 1 gives a continuous detection tone from the comb which then stops when it comes into contact with any nits or eggs.You must remove any nits from the comb teeth before the tone returns.Mode 2 has a continuous detection tone which does not stop on contact with the nits.I found mode 1 to be more useful as it highlights when a nit or egg has been hit and killed allowing inspection of the parasite.Regarding the poor reviews I can only assume that people are not reading the instructions carefully enough before use or are using it incorrectly.Also, it does clearly state that you should use it to comb hair once a day for ten days to catch any tiny eggs that were missed on previous days due to their size but will get caught later as they grow larger and before they hatch.Overall, I was very happy with this purchase for its price and my daughter has been nit free for sometime now after battling them for almost 6 months.The comb certainly emits a voltage (safe to humans) that would kill nits etc as I touched my ear with it when testing it on myself and there was a distinct mild tingle.

gets the larger lice. But many slip between the prongs. Good for a first pass and to untangle any hair. Then onto a tighter comb to get the smaller ones.

Not very effective it zapping nits and not very effective in combing through the hair

A must have for any parent, babysitter or childminder.Being told that there are lice at your childs school brings me out in the heeby jeebies which sends me into overdrive. I've found with this comb I can check my three sons hairs daily and being able to check their hair daily quickly is a godsend. There are two options on the comb, the first is to check if there are any lice or eggs - when it's on this option it lets off a high pitched noise which will stop if it comes across any eggs or lice (or scabs fyi). The second option eradicates them if any are found saving you so much time, saving your child/ren from so much upset as well as having any nasty chemicals put onto their delicate scalps.The good thing is you only need a couple of AA batteries on hand to check your children or your own hair and don't have to then go panic buy lice killing products. I've found using this along with a tea tree spray (we make our own mixing water with some tea-tree essential oil which is sprayed on in the morning) has been enough to ensure our sons have never caught any lice or eggs.
