https://www.vetsurgeon.org/f/non-clinical-questions/23344/please-can-we-have-some-clipper-recommendations I have been asked to gather some suggestions for new clippers for the practice (small animal). Up to now we&#39;ve used plug in noisy clippers (the kind where cats jump off the table when you switch them on!) but we want something cordless, nice and quieten-USTelligent Community 10https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/143952?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 29 Sep 2015 11:47:59 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:e88ccebf-ea9d-4d29-b588-bb467da7cbfdChrisBVSc<p>Thanks everyone, I&#39;ve passed on the recommendations.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/143927?ContentTypeID=1Mon, 28 Sep 2015 23:04:08 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:910041d3-c95c-4b38-8306-36ea97932769Rob Loxley<p>[quote user=&quot;Richard Carter&quot;]Main problem is it getting used on everything else[/quote]</p> <p>Too true - people hammering the quiet mini-clippers dematting a huge rough haired dog...

Small ones are not that robust but are really nice to use. Larger ones are tougher but not quite such a close shave.&nbsp;</p> <p>Cheaper rechargeables have fallen by the wayside. Either too noisy or poor quality.</p> <p>Still use the mains ones for surgical preparation because more blade options and easier cleaning.</p> <p>Despite their lack of strength the tiny Aesculap ones are the clippers we would hate to be without most!</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
