What clipper should I get?

[Happytails28]

Hello fellow groomers 😻 I'm new to this forum and I love it already, I'm also new to groom and my question is what clipper is best for starters the Andis excel 5 speed or the Andis ultra edge?

Thanks a lot

I use the Excel 5 speed and I really like them. They're fairly light, slim and fit well in my hand. The biggest complaint I have and have seen is that you have to baby the cord. If it falls out of a wall socket, you can damage the electronics in the base and at $40, it's expensive to replace. I use an extension cord and plug the base of the clipper into the extension cord on the ground.

Excel 5 speed, definitely!
As for the cord, Jeff at Northern Tails Sharpening has blog post on how to prevent cord problems.
