I first bought this 7 years ago and I put a lot of mileage on it. It never failed. The battery life has diminished somewhat (understandable) but the unit still functions properly for the most part. I used the recommended oil for the blades regularly and cleaned it periodically by dismantling it. I purchased a second because I noticed the power seemed to be fluctuating even when fully charged and it became a bit louder as if the motor became more labored; more than it used to. So based on these possible warning signs, I proactively purchased my second unit.Over seven years this thing was used at least once a week. I considered trying a different Whal clipper, one of the more expensive ones, but decided to just stick with what works, and this unit works better than any other I've ever used. The noise level is not bad, and better than any other clippers I've had, but wish it was a bit quieter especially when I use it when traveling.I've read some of the other reviews about the product not being new when delivered so I kept an eye out for any signs of use. I had no problem at all -- brand new. There are some very slight changes from the previous unit I bought 7 years ago. Slightly better charger and a subtle color scheme change. Other than that, all is the same.Definitely recommend this product. The best out there all things considered.It's been almost 3 years and I noticed that it is not cutting as sharply as before, even when lubing the blades. I bought the Asurion insurance, which is for 3 years, but I didn't really need it. Amazon said that it is still covered under Wahl. I called Wahl and spoke to an unhappy employee. She told me I could purchase another blade or I could send it in for servicing (free/just have to pay for shipping). She gave me the address but did not mention "Attn: Repair Center." When I asked her for her name, then she perked up a little. The silver piece in the front fell off a long time ago so hopefully, they will replace it. I cut my son's hair every 3 weeks and my clipper has been very good.The only thing I am disapointed is that it came with no-premium comb and I saw in the photos of others customers that they recieved premium combs, but in the box that I recieved it says normal combs and is the same box of the picture of the seller so I can’t complain. Just keep that in mind because the box that I received is not the white one with premium combs, is the regular one as is showed in the picture of the seller.About the performance is the better clipper I’ve ever had, it’s so easy to make fades because of its irregular blades. 10/10 in performanceHave owned for over two years now. Bought off amazon when the pandemic started. It is perfect and what I have always wanted!When I purchased my wife said “you spent how much on a trimmer?!?! Well you better use it and I better never you go to a barber again!?!” Lol. It said. Its $140. Pays itself off in a few months. Well. Now two years later and I have not been back to the barber. (Sorry barber.)This trimmer is perfect! Since my Army days I have had trimmers to fade myself and friends up, for $5-10 per person. The trimmers were corded. Loud. Got hot after several people. Would burn. So you better be first in line. Lol. But we endured them. Getting a new trimmer for the stay at home orders made cutting my hair, and my sons fun.As for the trimmer. It is quiet. Cool. Stays powered as long as I need. Battery life is wonderful. Good attachments and adjustment knob to fine tune the fade. Has brush to get hair out of small spaces on the trimmer and comes with oil. Easily able to be tightened to prevent blade adjustment knob moving when extended and fading. Never misses strands and cuts clean. All I can say. Get one. Best I have ever owned and truly love it. Have since given neighbors kids a fade here and there. Hope internal battery lasts for some years. So far. Totally satisfied and no buyers remorse. One of my happiest purchases on amazon. Wahl. Thanks for the cool running, quiet, cordless, perfect trimmer. Man If only I had one in the Army. My hearing would be better. And could have avoided those damn scolds from being 10th in line. Hahaha. 10/10. Full five star. For sure.Bonjour,J'ai bien reçu le produit à la date convenue mais la prise n'est pas conforme à la prise française. Je suis obligé d'acheter un adaptateur. Je trouve cela inadmissible, quant on vend un produit en France, on le vend avec les normes française ou alors on prévient le client. Que pouvez vous faire pour que ce produit fonctionne en France. J'attends votre réponse.CordialementDominique RagusaDense cuenta que el empaque es genérico o clon... pedí una segunda máquina y es totalmente deferente... Por eso requiero la devoluciónWhile the power of the motor is initially very impressive and the speed it cut hair surprised me, even with perfect maintenance it slowly fell apart as pieces became dislodged and the cutting blade drastically reduced in efficiency.Specifically the silver thumb rest snapped off and would not go back. After about 10 uses none of the different length clipper guards would stay attached. I would like to point out that this is my 3rd replacement of this and the thumb rest has fallen off on all three. one of them I even sent back to the manufacturer at my own expense and they sent it back with the thumb rest not even repaired, it was still loose in the box!!Even with meticulous cleaning and oiling I had to service this thing constantly to get it to perform its basic function. My 1st haircut took me 5 minutes, my 10th haircut took me 2 hours.I have purchased numerous different qualities of clipper over the many years from this brand name, and I will never buy another as long as I live. Paying what I paid for this and having it perform so poorly is the final straw.This is not a matter of the user not understanding how to operate the device or maintaining it improperly. This simply does not deliver the performance for the price.J'avais un peu peur de recevoir une copie.. Ce qui m'est déjà arrivé avec un autre vendeur.. Mais non, c'est bien le modèle original de 2020...au top!J'ai beaucoup d'autres tondeuses telle que la Wahl légende, la Panasonic er-gp80... Éct..Qui sont d'excellentes tondeuses, mais jai un meilleur feeling avec la magic clip...Ideal pour les dégradés américains et fondus....Et puis je ne pourrais plus me passer du modèle sans fil.. Tellement plus agréable?Réactualisation 6 mois plus tard:Le moteur est presque mort, elle tire les cheveux..bref, appareil défectueux..Mon ancienne Magic clip avait tenu 3 ans...
