WAHL Home Cut Black Edition Hair Clipper Complete Hair Cutting Clipper with Thumb Adjustable Taper & Travel Pouch, Powerful Electromagnetic Motor with 14,400 strokes per min, Self-Sharpening Carbon Steel Blades, 10 Cutting Lengths, 2 Years Warranty; 9243-5724

I used this model to cut my hair and it works very well. This model has the longest hair setting at 25 mm - taper guard no.8 from what I could find online. None of the other models or brands have a setting that is this long. What this means that you can actually get a proper haircut and not a very short crop or crew cut using this trimmer even if you are not an expert. The 25mm guard ensures that whatever you do, your hair will not end up becoming shorter than this while using this particular guard. After that you can use the smaller length guards to shorten your hair on the sides and back.It is for this reason alone that I bought this trimmer. I had previously used a Phillips beard trimmer and compared to that the Wahl is absolutely amazing. It cuts hair very easily without effort or clogging. The guards are a little bent in some cases and I personally think its fine. Its made of plastic and you can just push and straighten it out. The plastic is of basic quality, but it is good enough and I don't think it'll break unless you really hit it somewhere. The machine itself feels sturdy. There is vibration, but I personally did not find it too much. It just felt normal, slightly more than a beard trimmer. The Wahl trimmer has a power screw at the side to adjust the power of the machine which will reduce the noise at low power. I did not change this setting and went with the default setting.Looks at several reviews here, I was very apprehensive. What I now realize that there are a few things one needs to do before operating the machine that will ensure optimum performance. This is a professional clipper used by barbers and hence its not as simple as beard trimmers. All it takes is watching a few YouTube videos to be able to get started and maintain this device.1. Before you turn on the clipper make sure that the blades are aligned. In my case they were aligned and I did not make any adjustment. As far as possible don't change this unless it is clearly visible that the blades are misaligned. It is difficult to measure the small offset of 0.64mm. What is needed is for the smaller sandwiched blade in front has to be a little to the right (very little, less than an mm) of the bigger fixed blade behind it. This video will help if at all you need to align the blades.YouTube Video:- How I align & tune Wahl clippers -limubearproductions2. Before you use the the clipper to cut your hair, the clipper has to be oiled. There's a five point oiling technique that is described in this video. Its very simple and do this EACH TIME before you cut your hair (assuming its a few weeks apart). The oil helps the blades to self sharpen and ensures longevity.YouTube Video:- Prepping a Hair Clipper for First Time Use by WahlHomeProduct3. Learn how to use the Taper lever.

Some heating problem otherwise experience of using this trimmer is just awesome....

I've been using a Panasonic trimmer for over 11 years, and apart from changing the batteries a couple of times, it still works great. However, I recently bought a Wahl trimmer because I needed longer clip lengths, a corded operation, a powerful motor and which is also suitable for head. Beard trimmers like Panasonic, or any other similar ones, are not suitable for cutting head hair because the hair gets stuck in the clipper due to its closed design. I needed a short haircut due to hair fall and skin issues, and going to a salon every time just for a bald haircut was time-consuming. After doing my first DIY haircut, I was shocked—it looked even better than a salon cut! I used a 6mm guard for the sides and a 13mm guard for the top, and the results were surprisingly better than what I usually get from a barber.Wahl Trimmer Positives:Strong Build & Powerful Motor: The trimmer feels premium and solid, with a heavy-duty construction and a powerful motor.Sharp and Smooth Blades: The blades are sharp and cut through hair effortlessly.Wahl Trimmer Negatives:Extreme Overheating: The biggest issue is that it heats up dangerously within just a few minutes, becoming completely unholdable—almost like a hot cooking utensil. Unlike DC trimmers, which cool down after random turn-offs, the Wahl trimmer continues to retain heat even after being turned off. It only starts cooling when unplugged from the main power source.AC Power Cord Concern: The trimmer uses an AC power cord, which could become a safety hazard if it wears out over time.Final Verdict:I do not recommend this trimmer due to its extreme overheating issue. While it performs well in terms of cutting power and build quality, the heat makes it nearly unusable for more than a couple of minutes. If Wahl addresses this heating problem in future models, it could be a great product. Until then, I’d advise looking for alternatives that don’t overheat to the point of being unholdable.

It's a good trimmer comes with accessories and is perfect for use in home it does get heated after a time but that's not big of an issue, there no problem with loud sound as of now, I have recived a 2 year warranty paper with this, over all a good product in price range.

It's overheating when used for continous 45 minutes. We can't even hold it because of the extreme heating. As I bought this a year ago suddenly it is not working and I can't even claim the warranty even it is under warranty period now...

Very good quality on first use . Versatile in application and value for money. Complete kit provided..with clear instructions.

Works fine , no issues with any tool , multiple attachments, but for self use it’s little hard to

There was not 2 com in the product. There was not 3MM hair cutter comb. But the product is very nice.
