Review on 🐾 Wahl Arco Pet Clipper Kit (#8786-452) for Cats, Dogs, Horses - Champagne, Cordless and Professional by Elizabeth Moore

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Not powerful enough for my fluffy cat

I've used this trimmer before for horse touch-ups, which it was excellent for - quiet, easy to use, portable. However, I recently bought it to shave my Maine Coon cat. I used a Hansprou hair clipper, which I also bought from Revain. They worked well, but after a few years they quickly began to overheat, which my cat rightly complained about. not strong enough to cut through their thick, silky fur. She doesn't have any tangles, but I've found clippers that constantly cling to small tangles in her fur instead of clipping them. In the attached picture you can see the difference between her sides and back which I used a Hansprou clipper on and her stomach which I tried to use a Wahl clipper on. Job done because otherwise I really liked it. I just think I bought the wrong tool for the job. If you only want to touch up more delicate areas this might be a good option for you, but for more complex work you might need a more powerful tool.

Pros
  • Great product
Cons
  • Something different
