Wahl Professional 5 Star Magic Clip Cordless Clipper Stagger Tooth Blade Includes Attachments 100 Min Runtime 4 Colors

Bought it around 7 years ago , still kicking no issiues , best clipper ever used , battery still lasting , just change the blade. great job! , i wish lever adjuster was clickable like some others. but other than that. it's light and ergonomic.

This thing is powerful! No pulling and simply gets the job done. Adjustability is great.

Worked fine for me, no problems! :-) Pro quality and great battery life. I liked that I could easily pick it up at the Amazon locker by where I work.

One the best clippers iv had. In my 20 years cutting hair, great, works well battery great,

I'll update this review as I get some more time with the clippers, but initial impressions (unboxing and one haircut) are good! The clippers seem to be very well-made, have a good weight (without feeling too heavy), good ergonomics, and cut well!For a bit of background, I purchased these to cut my own hair. I've done so with a cheap set of Conair clippers from Walmart for the past ... 10-12 years I believe. While they got the job done and earned their $30-ish purchase price many times over, there were a few things about them that I wished were different from day one. First of all, they were corded, but 10-12 years ago there just weren't good (affordable) cordless options and battery technology was still mostly NiCd / NiMH. Lithium-based batteries today are much more betterer! :) Other annoyances were the fact that they were fairly loud and didn't cut quite as well - especially if I tried to go faster - when compared to the ones my barber used any time I'd go see her.The Wahl Cordless Magic Clips looked like just the item to address all the shortcomings of the old Conairs when they began to malfunction. They were cordless (Yay!), professional quality for better quality cut and more power to allow moving a bit faster, and from reviews and a few videos seemed to be a bit quieter. Again, I'm only one cut into using these, but so far they've lived up to my expectations in all these areas!So why have I deducted a star? Well, there are a few reasons, all minor, and only one directly related to the clippers themselves. With regard to the clippers, the Conairs had very definite settings when adjusting the taper lever. The Wahls seem to be more "infinitely adjustable", without the little detents that the lever clicks into as you adjust. This is not a huge thing obviously, but since I got used to it, it was nice to know I was always setting the taper lever at the same setting each time. I appreciated the repeatability of the Conair design a bit more.The other items are more related to packaging and accessories. Again, keep in mind that i'm comparing this to a set of $30 clippers from Walmart ... also, I understand that the Wahls are marketed as a professional set and not as much for the home user. This difference in target audience, of course, is probably the reason for my perceived shortcomings, but still ... if Conair could do it for $30, then Wahl could do it for $80-90. Just sayin. Anyway, the Conairs came in a nice hard-plastic box that had foam padding and room for the clippers and accessories. The Wahls just have the cardboard packaging which is clearly meant to be discarded rather than used for storage. Since I'm not running a barber shop, mine get stuck under the bathroom counter most of the time and pulled out every other week for a trim. I wish I hadn't chunked the Conair box, because I'd be using it for the Wahls. *facepalm* Also, the Conairs included a nice little brush, about 2" wide, which I presume is designed for cleaning yourself and surfaces of hair clippings as well as a tiny brush for cleaning the clippers themselves. The Wahls just have the tiny one. Thankfully I DID keep the one from the Conair set because it's invaluable for cleaning up the bathroom counter after I cut my hair. Much easier than most anything else I've tried because it actually gets all the hair up without the hair sticking to it. And not that I really used these items as much, but the Conair set included a small set of scissors and a better (IMO) comb than what came with the Wahls. As I mentioned above, I do understand the likely reason behind some of this ... a professional will have professional scissor and combs, they'll likely be leaving the clippers out at all times, etc. I was just underwhelmed when I found that these, which cost 3 times as much as my old ones, didn't have some of the same handy accessories.Overall though, I am VERY happy with my purchase. The little nit-picky things I've identified as negatives will likely be forgotten within a few months. As long as these last as long or longer than my previous set, I won't hesitate to recommend them to others!

Top tier wahl product! Great power. Sharp blades and ease of use with cordless design. Good size and built well so durability isnt an issue.

The media could not be loaded. I purchased this trimmer about 5 months ago for about $150.I nearly sent it back. The aesthetic of this product is clearly meant to harken back to something of quality from the 50's or 60's, such as one might have found in the hands of a professional barber. However, unlike the build quality of the era, this product is constructed mostly plastic- including a chrome painted and non functional decorative trim piece. It's light weight, but in a way that screams "made in China".In addition, the blades are abrasive against the skin in a way that other trimmers I've used are not. In a word: uncomfortable. In the end I just didn't want to deal with the hassle of a return and kept it. Today (about five months later) I walked into my washroom to a raucous clattering- the trimmer had spontaneously turn on and had vibrated itself into the sink. The thing is- I couldn't turn it off. It had clearly been running for a while and was very warm to the touch. I was afraid it would overheat and catch fire and so I proceeded to disassemble it. By the time I'd finished it had run itself out of charge. Looking at the obviously cheaply assembled internals, it's not clear how this could have happened.In short- stay away. I'm looking into how to file a consumer product safety complaint.

Bought these for my son who was learning how to cut hair. He's a pro now!
