Review: Great choice, but cord damages over time - Excellent choice for pros, or for home-groomers who need to provide their own grooming care for multiple dogs. I groom anywhere from 6-12+ dogs a day and barely break a sweat. These weigh so much less than your typical 2-speed. Very lightweight. MUCH easier on the wrist than heavier clippers. Also fits in the hand well, isn't small but isn't a huge brick like some 2-speeds. Maneuvering them around is simple, even with smaller dogs. Comes with a #10 blade to get you started, and some oil. Very easy to switch speeds. Makes it a breeze to get underneath tight matting. Because it is corded and not cordless, you don't have to worry about battery life. Quality is great overall. The only issues that I have had with these are the cord and the power buttons after years of use. I have had 3 or so of these over my 11 years of professional grooming experience, and I have had to replace the cord on each one after a few years, and they're never quite the same after (still work fine mostly, just not as reliable as a new one). Due to the way that the cord hangs to one side when the clippers are hung up, it inevitably pulls on their connections and/or damages the inside of the cord itself and you will have issues with them turning on/off as the wires inside reconnect with one another. I have gotten a bit of extra life out of them by zip-tying the cord to the metal hanging loop in a way that prevents the cord from essentially tugging itself out of the housing. I don't mind owning multiple as now I have back-ups for myself, and for students. Occasionally I will have an issue with the power button or speed adjustment buttons not wanting to work well. It's easy enough to open up the clippers and readjust them as needed, but it can be annoying when it suddenly happens in the middle of a groom. Overall, the value for money is really good. I recommend these clippers to all of my students when they look to graduate from their 2-speeds.
Review: Best dog groomer ever!!! - Best dog grooming tool we've ever had. With our doodle, we've tried many different groomers before this one, and nothing cuts through his hair. What typically takes 2-3 days between two of us took only one by myself. I guess its true, you get what you pay for because this one is amazing. It glides right through hair/fur with ease, on quieter side so doesnt bother my dog as much, and it really gets the job done. Will not ever use a different groomer tool again! Hope it lasts for my boys lifetime, if not ill definitely be buying another.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My #1 choice
*by P***M on December 14, 2025*

great clippers. pro groomer here. these have been my go to clippers for many years. easily replaceable parts if/when needed but will last for years, even in a grooming salon. the only thing that usually ever needs replacing is the blade driver lever and those have to be replaced every few weeks for a pro but i get them cheap on ebay. Once in a while a cord will go bad bc it is always getting twisted during use. Still I much prefer the light weight and consistent power of a corded clipper over a cordless.
