Wahl Pet-Pro Clipper & Trimmer Combo Kit – 9284

Muy buen producto, lo recomiendo ampliamente.

For the price this clipper does exactly what is intended for and it works great on Persian cats and other animal breeds that have unusually thick and coarse hair. The clipper’s vibration is low and a non-issue to me and it makes a soft humming sound while it’s on, just like any other standard clipper out there. The clipper does get a little hot after about an hour of use but is no big deal, just let it cool, wipe any excess hair off the blades, add a little bit more oil to the blades and you’re good to go again. The additional small trimmer that was included is completely useless, works great on my sideburns but not on animals.

After about 6 uses the blades will become dull and won’t cut as good, again not a big deal at all. Just unscrew the blades with any standard Phillips screw driver, send them back to the Wahl Corporation with a check or money order for 7 dollars and they will send them back to you re-sharpened just like new again.

Please keep in mind that every pet is different and while some pets do not mind at all that you cut their hair, other pets will hate it. It all depends on their specific temperament and not the clippers that you use.

It’s always best to untangle and get any knots out of your pet’s hair BEFORE using the clipper. It will make the whole process a whole lot easier on you and your pet and it will also significantly cut down the time that it takes to cut your pets hair as well. If you’re pet has a lot of hair, its best if you cut it in segments and try to give your pet a break and let them relax instead of doing the entire haircut at once. Be gentle with your pet and give them a treat or two to make them feel better about the whole process.

If you want something that’s better and more powerful than get ready to pay a whole lot of money. For me this clipper works great, its well made, still going strong after more than a year of use and more importantly it has saved me a ton of money many times over instead of paying a groomer!

I recently became a foster failure and ended up with an awesome little maltipoo that I’m absolutely in love with. Since adopting wasn’t originally my plan, I had to figure out ways to cut costs on pet ownership– the main way being not to spend too much on grooming by learning to do it myself.

These clippers are great, though as a first-time pet owner, I really don’t have much to compare it to. It came with everything I needed (besides maybe the cooperation of my new dog), and voila, I now have a neatly trimmed doggie at less than the cost of bringing him to the groomer. I’ve already groomed him twice since I got the clippers, and couldn’t be more happy with my purchase.

The large clippers are great for general use, and come with a variety of comb sizes so an amateur like me can do an even trim without really knowing what I’m doing. They’re numbered so that 1 cuts very close while 8 leaves the fur pretty long. I chose a nice medium number of 4 for my dog’s main body and decreased to a 2 for the head, neck, and chest. I used the scissors on the legs and face, and even used the mirror to see different angles that I might be able to see otherwise.

I used the small clippers for the feet and in between the eyes. The small clippers actually make more noise than the large ones, so he gets a bit nervous when I use them. I like that they’re battery operated, but it’s a little more of a struggle for him to let me clip with this on. I think the larger clippers are a bit too big to be using on those areas, so sometimes if he *really* doesn’t want me near his face or feet with the little clippers, I just have to do it manually with scissors (they get trimmed more often than the rest of his body). Hopefully in time he’ll get used to the small clippers since it does look quite a bit neater when I use them.

Again, I’m no professional so I’m not very good at clipping by hand with scissors. I definitely depend on the guide combs to make sure my dog has a nice, even clip! I would highly recommend this to anyone who might be new to dog grooming, since it’s less than the cost of a professional groom and you get all the equipment you need to learn to do it yourself.

I have a sixty pound standard poodle. I was saving up for the more expensive Andis clipper set I found on here, but Vincent was getting a bit more matted than a simple combing could handle, and after a cross country move and some medical issues on my end, it had been a while since he’d been to the groomer. I went ahead and purchased this kit against my better judgment. I was almost certain that it would be money wasted and that there was no way on Earth these clippers would be able to get through a few inches of hair and mats to boot. I bathed Vincent, dried him and combed him out as best I could before I got the clippers out. This kit comes with an instructional video with some information about the company, what to do if your blade dulls, and tips and tricks for grooming.

Now, keep in mind I have a sixty pound standard. He’s about 26 inches high right now and looked very much like a mop. It took several hours to shave him down with a couple small breaks when the clippers got a little hot or when Vincent just got plain tired of standing, but these clippers did an amazing job. They weren’t as loud, nor did they vibrate as much as I thought they would. They were easy to handle and easy to use, and I was really delighted that they got the job done very well! The only reason I gave them four stars is because they do get a little hot after a while. I would recommend, if you have a bigger dog as I do, that you take a small break if they start to get hot, but then again, I sort of expected this. Still a very good deal for the price, and came with some accessories and a nice carrying case.

Once I get my pup to hold still, it but his thick fur easily. Used it 3 times so far and it’s still working smoothly.
