Heiniger Saphir Basic

Clipped my anxious rescue terrier for the first time and she barely flinched, the motor is that quiet. The light weight is what sold me, no arm ache after finishing her whole coat. Battery lasted my entire session with plenty to spare.

I was nervous about clipping my own dog at home, but this thing is so quiet he barely flinched. The balance is great too, my wrist didn't ache after doing his whole back.

The battery easily lasts through two full grooming sessions on my doodle before needing a charge. My only gripe is the blades get warm after about 20 minutes of continuous use, so I take short breaks. For a beginner like me it's been a solid buy.
