I have used several trimmers over the years and this one is by far the best. Wahl is such a good brand so I knew I was in good hands, plus the high ratings from everyone else really helped sell me on the purchase. It cuts so effortlessly and fits in the hand perfectly, much better than normal clippers. The guards are easy to apply and you don't have to worry about adjusting the blade height or anything, just pop on the guards. It doesn't seem to clog and really does an even job. The only thing I would say that worries me a little is when I am using it for a longer period of time, the trimmer sounds like it is slowing down (possibly because of overheating?) but I couldn't really tell a difference in the cutting performance.Overall, this is a great trimmer that is light and compact, powerful, doesn't clog, and cuts evenly. Buy it! You won't regret it.
