Thanks for the sound test. Little old, but reviews all over say the Wahl KM are quieter than the competition. Brushless motors are in fact quieter in operation as well. I'm not a pro, but want something that will last me years and take care of these 2 long haired cats I said I'd never own, dogs, and horses on occasion. KM10 seems like the price/value winner to me. It's a lot for a guy who won't be doing this for money, but buy once, cry once, and learning to do it the right way saves a lot more money in the long run. I'll be springing for the corded KM10.
Carbon brushes literally brush the motor causing friction, and thus cause heat and loss of energy to heat and friction. Brushless drills and power tools are all the rage these days: you get more power per weight. With dog grooming, however, brushless means the blade will probably stay cool longer since the whole brushless device runs cooler, and this is even more of an advantage in clippers than say in a drill. Five speeds seem unnecessary to me, but Andis tops at 4500 spm compared to Wahls 3700 spm, which sounds nice, but torque, which is speed under pressure, is more important than bare speed and Wahl claims to have speed adjustment under work load, so your Wahl clippers shouldn't fall below 3700 spm even when working hard, so that probably makes them about the same except that you don't have worry about adjusting your speed for the load with Wahl and you don't need 5 speed with the Wahl. Thanks for rounding out my theoretical research with a real review. Now you just have to find a Heiniger to borrow/loan trade with someone.
Thank you so much for posting this! I've been trying to decide between the two but I couldn't get an honest opinion from someone who had tried both. This helped so much! :)
so happy to help!
wahl needs to bring more colors out. i’m color picky! they should always just add a charging doc WITH the charger just in case, but yeah
I will 100% confirm Wahl's great customer service. That in and of itself is worth giving them a second look!
Thank you for your video, good video, in the UK the Wahl is called km cordless only comes with 12 month warranty. Km 10 has the cable in UK. Both have the same brushless motor.
Have you done a comparison with the km10 and andis and wahl bravura ? Power wise for clippers
Hey Allison, just want to thank you for all your awesome videos. Im a groomer in Ontario Canada and Love popping on to grooming related videos, and you are by far the best. I just recently stumbled on your page and I have to say.....so much great information. Thanks so much
You are so welcome! thank you for watching and hanging out with me!
I love your shirt! What kind is it? Also Andis had me until the sound test😂
I'm so upset over the whole excel cordless fiasco! I loved it but it stopped working after barely a month. I had such a difficult time getting a hold of Andis and getting them to help me. They had me send the brand new clipper BACK to them and nearly 6 weeks later they still had my clipper AND my money! I got so fed up that I bought a Wahl!!
I was curious to what you think regards how they groom a dog. My boss has the Andis one that you just showed and she always gets more coat off with that clipper than the Wahl or Heineger.
Thank you so much for this, I have now made my mind up 😊
This is awesome! I will advise that you dont charge any of your cordless clippers unless they are dead. It will make the make the battery last longer. Dont always throw it on the charger all the time.
yes great tip!!
Actually, that is advice for old NiCad batteries. NiCads especially had memory issues and liked to be taken all the way down and all the way up. NiMh were agreeable with sloppier charging and just like to have a charge more often. You don't want to leave NiMh around unused without intermittant charging at least. Modern batteries, however, are all going to Li ion these days, and what Li ion likes best is to hang out around 50% charge and you don't worry about memory too much. In fact if you want to store a Li ion battery without using or charging, it is best stored at around a 50% and the battery will hold that charge for a long time and not die from disuse like a NiCad or a NiMh. Google it you don't believe me.
@@OWK000Thank you, you saved me from having to write this.
What do you use the two different speeds for on the Wahl KM Cordless?
The first speed would be for every day use . The second speed ( the faster speed ) is for thicker. More corse hair . Hope that helped
How can I align the blade????... 😢😢😢
That's the old model for 270$ that's been discontinued for Andis. I have the same one.
I had an andis fade master, but it's really heavy if you use it for long time. I sold it, and I was thinking to get zr2. thanks for this video! I love you.
happy to help! lovveeee ya!
How often do these Wahl clippers break?
Those are the Andis ZR not the ZR II.
How is the KM10 with thick doodle hair?
I have always used andis and I got one of the newest corded ones I think when I bought it it was around 200 they are like 150 now and they come in green or teal anyways that clipper is loud too like a lawn mower.... it’s also very heavy. It says it has a brushless motor but I don’t know🤷♀️ I’ve been wanting a whal for a long time and you video just confirmed that my next clipper will be whal I have carpal tunnel in my right hand and definitely need something with less vibration and more ummm ergonomic I guess for my hand
Does the whal heat up ?
NOTHING BETTER THAN KM10
I live in SE Wi and Andis is local for me and they have an amazing repair dept.
So how long can the andis sit on the charging dock until it’s bad for the battery and how long should the wall be on the cord before it’s bad for the battery?
Li ion batteries like to hang out around 50%: to be stored for instance. Once they are charged all the way up, definitely remove them from the charger, but throwing them on the charger intermittantly while in use is not necessarily a bad thing. Just aim for how much power you need for use and 50% for storage. Don't continually aim to top off to 100%, though. Also, don't charge a very cold, i.e., freezing battery, or a very hot battery.
what about update?
Do you try Heiniger Opal cord less clipper ? 😇
The Heiniger Opal is the way to go, quiet and powerful. Up to 4 hour run time and fully recharges in about an hour.
I love mine, great with cats.
I returned mine. Awesome clippers but not enough power for the amountof dogs I do (2 speed)
I bought those andis clippers and the motor stopped working after only three days. And no it’s not the battery because I have two batteries and they were both fully charged and it still didn’t work. I’m looking into the artero HIT clippers. They come with two batteries a FIVE HOUR run time and a one year warranty. The andis ones only come with a 30 warranty. Idk I always have terrible luck with andis products.
Mine stopped working while I was grooming a dog, out of the blue! The battery was fully charged. It just went quiet, no motion, not movement, nothing, quiet! Only had it for 1 month, but fortunately I was able to send mine back. No luck with Andis either.
Well I did replace them and it’s been a month now and they’re still working just fine. That seems to be a common thing with those. After one month they stop. But mine was only three days. I’ve seen a ton of reviews saying they stopped after a month. But then I’ve seen more saying they’ve had them for a year and they’re still running strong. So who really knows!
@@kimrigney7790 I watched a review where a groomer explained that andis plus zr can stop working if the blade is sitting wrong, or is not oiled enough😬
I have the old zr model, and it's been working great for me for years. Motor and charging base had to be replaced after 1-2 years, they got clogged with hair.
The blades do get stuck and won't run if there isn't enough oil, it's a safety feature. Just get the blades unstuck and apply more oil to the teeth.
I'm looking into the Artero Hit clippers so I can move my zr into a backup.
👍
Here is my review but don't take my word on it
You have to stroke more until you get used to Yust keep stroking
a Brushed Motor is less expensive, older design, Not as powerful as a Brushless Motor and doesn't last as long
a Brushless Motor has More power, last longer and is preferred for Professional use, like your business does
My dog wouldn't like the sound of the Andis clipper.
Animal barber. How did this pop up on my feed
Liked her point regarding reviews without product comparison. Video volume great, title card sound is too loud for watching reviews in bed. 😅 Video is helpful but a tad too long.
12 minutes to talk about noise levels. Boy you just love recording yourself talk.
Thank you so much for this, I have now made my mind up 😊
happy to help!
