This was recommended to me by a hairstylist close friend. High quality, super powerful motor and clean and painless full strokes and cuts. This should last you forever, and worth every penny if you cut your hair and beard at home.
I looked around at a few other clippers, comparing Wahls to Osters, etc. I constantly found that people were recommending models that were 100+ dollars. If you are like me, and just wanting a simple haircut, this is way overboard in the price department. At the same time, I was skeptical of the cheap generic style clippers that you'd find at any big-box store. While I didn't need a gold-lined clipper of Olympus, I didn't want something that was going to scalp me either. After some searching, I finally decided on this relatively obscure model, largely because of the price.
The Pros:
-The price is very good for what you get. Many more expensive models appear to actually be of lower quality.
-The V9000 motor (Which this model has) is a noticeable upgrade over the V5000. (I have a close friend who owns a model with that motor). It has not snagged or tugged, or anything on me, and I have exceptionally thick hair.
-Comes with 8 attachments, a bottle of oil, a comb, cleaning brush, and a carrying box [More on these in a second]
-Is surprisingly not-loud. I wouldn't say its quiet, but its not nearly as bad as some clippers.
-Has a balanced weight, I have no problems using it and the clippers are neither fore, or rear heavy.
-Tapper adjustment is smooth.
Cons:
-It does get hot. This might be because I am still slow, but after a while it really warms up.
-The plastic attachments are pretty "cheapy" feeling. I'll likely end up trading them out for a better set. But they are a good start and haven't broke or gave me uneven cuts.
-The comb and brush are pretty low end.
-The plastic carrying box is a joke. The first time I received this, the box was shattered. The second time it was cracked in three spaces. I kept it and just duct-taped it. I know this isn't a huge issue, but really, that is why I can only give four stars. The box is pretty low quality.
-The included oil bottle is prone to leaking.
-The clipper does not come at max power, you need to manually adjust it (Which thankfully is fairly easy).
Final Verdict:
As you can see, most of my cons are about the accessories or deal with minor issues. I'd say the clipper's heat is my only real complaint. The V9000 motor is a real improvement over the V5000, it's not just marketing. For the price, you really can't go wrong with this model. Just don't expect much out of the accessories, and you will not be disappointed.
It is June 2023 and I still love these clippers, I use them every month or so to keep things fresh between actual visits to barbershop every 4 or so months. They are still going strong and haven't failed me once. Never pulled hair, never choaked up still a beast. This is the longevity you can expect from a well made product. I stand by my original review below 100%. If you cut your own hair treat yourself and buy good clippers. It is a multi year investment that will pay off.
Great Clippers for Home Users
I bought these to replace an old set of Wahl (Wahl 9639) clippers that I have had for a very long time now for about 5 years. I picked them up from a Walmart because I got tired of being overcharged for a simple haircut when I could do it myself. I do my hair myself or if I am lucky my wife will do my hair for me. The set I bought a long time ago came with a plethora of guards as well as the left ear right ear guards. So I read a few reviews and heard these were lacking some of these guards, but operated on the assumption that the ones I have would fit on this set of clippers. I was right. I did a bunch of research on different clipper motors and honestly couldn’t even find what motor my old clippers used. This one came the all powerful V9000 motor which is basically the most powerful motor any home user would ever have use for. I wanted two things on my new set of clippers Power and Price, powerful yet would not break the bank and these clippers met those criteria for me.
Pros
-Fit my old WAHL guards, which was important because it seemed to be missing a few choice guards.
-Powerful, I am seriously impressed with this set of clippers. Flipping the side switch on them immediately makes me want to start shaving neighborhood dogs. Hair doesn’t stand a chance against these clippers. Be prepared for the rush when you first turn them on.
-Included guards are pretty high quality, I noticed a really good increase in the quality of the included guards from my old ones. (See attached Pictures)
-The unit feels indestructible, they are heavy for clippers which I mainly noticed because my old ones are plastic instead of the metal these clippers are. So I noticed a HUGE increase in quality.
-The included cord is neither short nor long, so depending on how/where you use these clippers you may have to plug in an extension cable.
-Mine were obviously new never used and came undamaged. Just thought I would make this point being that some reviewers have made points that theirs were damaged on arrival and such.
Cons
-Included 8 guards, but was missing guards as well. Most notably the right and left ear taper guards. But quizzically it is also missing a few standard guards as well. (See attached Picture) It HAS the NO.½ (1/16”), NO.1 (1/8”), NO.1 ½ (3/16”), NO.2 (1/4”), NO.3 (3/8”), N0.4 (1/2”), NO.6 (3/4”) and the NO.8 (1”) along with the orange blade guard. MISSING are the NO.5 (5/8”) and NO.7 (7/8”) along with both the Left and Right ear Tapers.
-Furthermore WHO is going to use the NO. ½ or NO.1 ½ clippers? Instead they should’ve had the NO.5 and NO.7 guides. I can’t think of a wide spread use for the 1/16” or 3/16” guides. But I CAN think of a use for a 5/8” and a 7/8” guide which are NOT included. Just seems odd to me is all.
-The packaging is kinda horrendous for a clipper of this price. No included zip pouch which my cheaper clipper had when I bought it from WalMart all those years ago. This clipper basically came in a plastic clamshell and cardboard box. I was kinda expecting more but at the same time didn’t care. Just something to note.
Conclusion
In my honest opinion not having a nice case or missing a few guides should not prevent you from buying these clippers. I WOULD expect them to include these missing items, but I still love them. I guess one reason this isn’t a deal breaker is I have the missing guards from my previous Wahl trimmer and they fit this one. So if you are really needing the left and right ear taper or the NO.5 and NO.7 guides you may have to buy them separately if you don’t have them from a previous trimmer.
There are a few items this set of clippers could’ve included and really beefed up the reviews on the product itself. The ear tapers could’ve been included as well as the missing NO.5 and NO.7 guides. I mean honestly less expensive all including clippers (Like my WAHL 9635 that Amazon still sells) include these items and cost half of what this set does. I guess the real question is do you actually NEED those missing guides/combs? My personal answer is yes on the tapers because I like the look they give me; but no on the missing 5 and 7 guides. They also could’ve included a nice zipper pouch like the one I included that I got when I purchased my Wahl 9635 clippers 4 -5 years ago. However it looks like they have discontinued including any kind of hard or soft case on any clippers they offer on Amazon. So if you want a good case you are gonna have to buy one, which kinda bites.
These trimmers are a HUGE step up if you were just walking down the aisle at a WalMart one day and decided you would buy a trimmer to do your hair. I can honestly say I expected these things to cost 80$ easily, but was surprised when they were actually a really reasonable price. Especially since they are much more powerful and such a better build quality than my older set of trimmers. I expect many many years of consistent haircuts with these trimmers given how long my old Wahl lasted.
My Wahl 9635 was good to me but it is time to retire it, but it will live on through the Left and Right ear tapers and the NO.5 and NO.7 guides I am carrying over.
