Customer Reviews of Wahl Professional Super Taper II Hair Clipper 8470
Customer Review: The best clippers I've ever owned
Summary: 5 Stars
I've owned a set of these Wahl Super Taper II clippers for almost four years now and I am extremely happy with them. Most months I give three haircuts with them (I cut my brother's, my son's, and my own hair). It's safe to say that I've used these clippers at least a 100 times, and they are the best that I've ever owned.
These are heavier duty than the average home clipper set, which means that they are heavier and more substantial than many that I've used over the years. They also vibrate more. None of those qualities bother me, as my priority in purchasing these was a set that worked well and lasted a long time. I like the size and feel of these clippers, and although looks weren't an important consideration, I like the retro styling. These high-quality, reliable, American made clippers have not disappointed me in any way.
The larger, stronger motor and great cutting blades make cutting even the thickest hair a breeze. After over 100 uses these clippers are still cutting as well as they did when they were new. I've never had to do anything to them other than oiling the blades with each use. Occasionally, when I first turn them on there is a very loud clatter. This is usually eliminated by a quick taper level change. This is the same noise that the clippers make while you are setting the maximum power by adjusting the Power Screw.
My only complaint about this package is that the clipper combs in this set don't include diagonal pieces (for around the ear trimming). The eight that are included are great, but I ended up purchasing a Wahl Hair Clipper Guide Combs, 10 piece set - just to get the two diagonal combs that I needed. My previous combs were the type that clamped onto the sides of the cutting blades (and often fell off while in use). I prefer the type that Wahl uses, which are held in place in the front, on the sides, and clip on in the back. I've never had one of these combs fall off while using them.
OVERALL GRADE: 4.5 stars
Clipper: 5 stars - Great cutting ability and reliable.
Comb selection: 3.5 stars - Missing the two diagonal pieces (for trimming around ears).
SUMMARY: Near professional grade (American made) clippers for a very reasonable price. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THESE!
