Product Information

This wide range can make choosing the best Andis dog clippers confusing though. If you’re struggling to find the right model for your requirements, the three clippers in this article are a great place to start. Make sure you read each review carefully to find out whether a clipper meets your needs though. While the “best” brand is fiercely debated amongst groomers, t here’s no doubt Andis produces some of the highest quality pet clippers. The company is also known for their excellent customer service and durable machines. One of the great things about Andis is they produce clippers for every purpose. Whether you just want to touch-up your dog’s coat between grooms, or are a professional who needs a heavy-duty clipper, they have an option that meets your requirements. Increased speeds otherwise apart from burgundy body casing similar to the AGC single and two speeds. We tested these clippers on two Shitzus and clipped twice, 5 weeks apart. They guided through any and all knots with ease, causing no pulling or discomfort for either of our pooch’s! Unrivaled value for money pet clippers

You can also buy used or second-hand Andis clippers. Make sure these are still in good condition when you buy though – particularly if they’ve been heavily used by a professional groomer. The first thing to note about the AGC Super is that it’s a professional-standard clipper. The powerful rotary motor can cut through the hair of any breed or coat (with the right blade), while the dual speed feature provides great versatility. Whether you’re grooming a poodle, Golden Retriever or any other breed, this model can handle it. Andis is one of the best brands for dog clippers. They produce a wide range of machines that are suitable for almost any purpose or budget, so the company’s popularity isn’t surprising.

No need to visit a professional dog groomer

They’re a powerful clipper. Really powerful. The fastest clipper speed runs at 4000 strokes per minute, so can handle any type or breed of coat. This results in a faster, more comfortable grooming clipper process. This range of choice can make deciding on a clipper confusing though. To help you make an informed decision, I’ve put together a list of the best Andis dog grooming clippers along with a mini review of each. They’re a heavy duty set of clippers but they’re wonderfully lightweight and easy to use. They were designed to provide both the user and pet comfort and Andis have most definitely succeeded!

If comfort is very important (as it should be), you’ll be happy to know that they’re incredibly comfortable to hold and not at all slippery and as mentioned above. Unless you’re buying a clipper with an adjustable blade, most Andis clippers come with either UltraEdge or CeramicEdge detachable blades. The included blade is usually a 10, so you’ll probably want to buy different length blades and guards depending on the cut. Andis sells a huge range of blade lengths and attachment comb sets, so you won’t have trouble finding one with the right length. The KM2 has the same rotary type motor as the KMSS, so if a lighter, quieter clipper is a must, best to upgrade to the Wahl KM5, or to a clipper with a brushless motor, like the Wahl KM10 or Andis AGC instead. Like the other models on this list, the Andis Excel is powered by a rotary motor. This provides powerful cutting performance that can handle any coat or breed. It’s also relatively lightweight and has a durable exterior.Andis clippers tend to have detachable blades rather than adjustable. While the company produces a few with adjustable blades, such as the Pulse Ion, Li and Whisper, these are exceptions rather than the rule. The first is the price. This is an expensive clipper that costs considerably more than the AGC2 Super. If you’re just buying a clipper for grooming your pet at home, I recommend saving money and buying one of the AGC models. I am very pleased with this product. Some reviewers have said that it cuts through their dogs hair like a knife through hot butter, and whilst I wouldn't say it's quite that good, it's certainly not too far off. Although she hardly looks like she's had a professional trim, my dog's coat is fairly even and tidy looking. After we tried to clip her with the Wahl budget clippers, she looked more like a very scraggy sheep!

The only negative thing I have to say about these clippers is that the instructions are not very clear - we did struggle for a while trying to figure out how to change the blades - but once you have that sorted, the process is very simple. I’m a big fan of Andis dog clippers. But one of my biggest complaints is the quantity of models they have on the market. It’s great to have choice, but with nearly 40 Andis pet clippers currently in production (including color variations) it can be confusing to choose the right option for your needs.This heavy-duty focus has downsides though. Andis clippers aren’t the slimmest, although they are rarely heavy and are usually comfortable to hold. Some people prefer the freedom of cordless models, for which Wahl and Oster are better options, although this comes at the expense of limited run-time. The Excel is part of the SMC range. This means it comes with a #10 CeramicEdge blade, which is more durable and cooler than UltraEdge alternatives. While the difference might not be huge, CeramicEdge blades are great for maintaining lower temperatures during long grooming sessions. Both are A5 model clippers. They fit all brands of A5 blades from size 50 (under 1mm coat length), up to size 3 (over 1cm), and all brands of universal comb attachments (for coat lengths under 3mm to over 3cm). They come with one #10 blade. Additional blades and comb attachments available separately.
