Wahl Clipper Rechargeable Cord/Cordless Haircutting & Trimming Kit for Heads, Longer Beards, & All Body Grooming - Model 79434

I've used an earlier model from the same manufacturer with a similar design. My old one was heavier than this and it had no battery system. That unit is still going strong even after over a decade of usage.It was time, I felt, to get a new one. (Also, I found out my father was using it and he's icky, so I let him keep my old one.)This unit is superior to the one I got for 20$ back in 2009.This item is solid and well made. Its clip options leave no need for anything more. If you keep your hair short in some places and longer in others or need help taming facial hair or other places that you let the hedges grow, this is a good item to have in your arsenal. It is easy to keep clean. It is easy to store. The wire feels a bit flimsy but I can already tell this unit will last me and my needs for an easy ten years.The battery in it is a bonus but it does not last as long and when the battery reaches about 10% power your hair will get caught in the blades so just keep it plugged in. I use this unit just like my old one, plugged in. It is strong enough to take care of my thick hair.I can't really express to you how much money I have saved by never going for a haircut since 2009.If you are starting out on cutting other people's hair, this would be a cheap option to get started in that field but I am not sure how long the unit would last if you used it for several hours every single day for years. This unit is made more cheaply than the old one I have that still runs like-new, but again, if this lasts me ten years, I'll be happy.

Highly recommended! Great cut! Self sharpening works great. Have had mine for 3 years with zero issues!

So far reaching expectations. Not super noisy, lower price than most. Kit has what you need. I bought a 3-way hanging door mirror & its good bye to the barber! I will probably save at least $200 per year after watching a few videos on how to cut.

Ive had these clippers for 2 months now, i cut my own hair and i use them to clip my dogs fur. I really like how easy it is to use and clip on/off different guards. Especially with having my dog, i regularly shave out her pawpads as it mats easy. this is a hard area to shave as theres a lot of folds and i usually end up knicking her once or twice. I started out with the shortest guard (1/2) but even without the guards i dont knick her with the blade. Only issue i have had so far is the blade. and its more of a design issue and user fault. after the last pawpad trim i did on my dog i noticed a lot of hair trapped under the blade. i thought no worries ill just clean it out. i took the blade apart and put it back and it started grinding. i noticed some other reviews that had this issue. it was very loud and wouldnt cut and i was worried the grinding would damage the blades. it was only after watching a disassembly/reassembly video that i realized i missed a step when putting it back together. it doesnt seem like the blade is meant to be put back that way (spring part on the smaller blade overlaps the top of the bigger blade, i had to get a flathead to get the spring to get on there) however after i did that, it worked again!! so i would say that the blade maintenance is a little more intense for someone whos just using this for personal use and isnt a professional but i recommend to actually watch a video on how to clean it before attempting or you might worry you broke your brand new clippers. Assembly of the blade is not the easiest in the world but is is doable. thats the only reason i took a star off. other than that these clippers work great and cut well. i also feel a lot more comfortable using them on my dogs feet than i did with my previous pair

Exactly what I needed!

Bought for my 15-year-old and it is a great product

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Great value and works great. I cut my own hair and this has worked well for over 2 years now

This has been a great tool to start doing haircuts at home. Lots of options when it comes to guards and the included scissors and comb really help with the cut. Battery life is great and it is relatively low noise
